Publix 9/29

It was a good week at Publix. My friend, Nora, at Loving the Moment also had a good Publix trip, but she laughed hysterically at my 12 boxes of instant oatmeal. I am having trouble laying off the deals. I will be donating some of my oatmeal!

Okay, Nora, I am issuing a challenge--let's see how low our grocery budgets for October can be. I am going to shoot for $200. I have approximately $100 left. I think I can do it, even with a birthday party on Oct 26th.
We will see...
