$16.70 at Walmart

Not all of this is from the grocery budget, but my total was $16.70. Dog treats and Epsom salts are not towards my grocery budget. The dogs have their own budget, which is WAY more than the human grocery budget. Depressing right!

2 Wrigley Gum: $0.96 each - free MQ = FREE
4 Milkbone treats: $2.84 each - 2 BOGO MQ = 5.68
1 Gold Medal Unbleached Flour (can't afford organic flour anymore) = $2.42
2 Pillsbury Brownie mixes: on sale from $1.38 to $1 each = $2
2 Mahatma yellow rice mixes: $0.76 each - $0.75/2 MQ = $0.77
3 Johnson & Johnson first aid kits: $0.97 each - 3 $1 MQ = overage of $0.09
1 Johnson & Johnson lotion: $0.97 - $1 MQ = overage of $0.03
3 Mentos gum (I didn't notice until I got home that I was only charge for 2, but she counted all three MQ): $1.28 each - 3 $1 MQ = overage of $0.44
3 Pace salsa products: $2.78 each - 3 $4 MQ (they were scaled down to $2.78) = FREE
1 Mahatma 2 Ib package rice: $1.96 - $0.50 MQ = $1.46
1 Epsom Salt = $3.12

Total before sales and Q = $40.36
Total sales = $0.76
Total Q = 24.19
Total OOP with tax = $16.70 (59% savings)

Technically I still have about a dollar left of my grocery budget, but I just put it all towards the grocery trip today.
