Weekly Grocery Trip

The trip went really well! All this for a total of $54.48 Since I spent only pennies at CVS for all our milk and a few other items we stayed in our $55. budget!! YAY (I skipped Walgreens this week).
Here's what we spent
Kroger was $20.07 receipt says saved $16.90 (45%) ..(25 items)
Meijer was $30.31 receipt says saved $48.25...(46 items)
Meijer 2nd trans. $4.10--------saved $14.99...(11 items)
-----------------------
spent $ 54.48------- Got $134.52 worth of food!!
WOW ...I Got 82 items---that's only .67 cents per item!!!! That blows my mind since only about 10 items were under $1.
Feel free to email me or post a comment if you have questions on how to do this!!

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a large baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. Combine the rice cereal, parmesan, and ranch salad dressing mix in a large bowl.
place beaten egg whites in med. bowl. Dip each chicken in the egg whites and then in the cereal mixture to coat evenly.
Arrange the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until golden and juices run clear when chicken is pierced with a knife. 25-30 minutes.
