I woke up bright and early to hit the stores this morning. I got to Walmart right when they opened and found almost everything I wanted, thankfully.
Then I went to No Frills right when they opened and found not only everything I wanted, but I also caught an employee right when she was bringing out marked down produce and got some amazing bargains on pears, apples, tomatoes and peaches. I’m going to spend a few hours making tomato sauce and apple sauce this weekend!
I’m not sure what to do with the pears or peaches yet, but they will likely be frozen for something.
Finally, I finished up my shopping at Metro, where I picked up 5 boxes of Weetabix cereal for just $0.99 a piece. I also took advantage of the FREE lemonade offer by splitting my purchases into 2 transactions to get 2 free lemonades for spending $10+.
*I thought we had another bag of chicken in the chest freezer, but we didn’t, so I had to pay full price.
