Shopping and soccer today

Well we have a game at the scary hour of 8 am. But at least they don't overlap today, so we can have a relatively restful day instead of running around like the proverbial chickens. We're doing muffins for breakfast instead of the cereal on the menu, cause I need some freezer space LOL. There is a good sale on pork chops so I'm going to stock up on those, which means I will be completely redoing all of the freezers today when we get home. But that always gives me a good opportunity to take stock of what I have. Ground beef is also on sale, but easy to repackage and put the little packages into the nooks and crannies.

LIving out in the boonies, we don't always get the sale ads, so what I do is check the sales online. The major grocery stores all have their ads up online. So before we go (usually day before) I check the ads to see what is on sale, and work that into my list. This is where a price book comes in handy. If my sale store has something on sale, I can check the price book and make sure that it's actually a deal by checking what the price is at my normal store.

OK, off to wake the kiddoes, have a blessed day!
