Weekly Shopping Trip--Savings $37.96

This week, I did something unintentionally! I forgot to take my coupon folder with me when I went shopping! I only needed a few items and there was only a couple of things that I needed with my coupons so it wasn't too bad. However, not having my coupon folder made me think more on whether I really needed to get the item or if I just wanted it to stockpile. I guess you even could say that I saved myself more money than what I actually did on paper by not getting items "just because".

So with that picture in mind, here is what I purchased this week to finish stretching what I already have on hand:
