Shopping

Blogging from my iPhone is not easy, but the iPad is almost out of data so...

My mom, in addition to a $100 Wegmans gift card, also gave me $100 in a Target gift card. Very convenient.

The other night after work, I picked up generic Up and Up Zyrtec for my daughter and found a couple of bargains while I was at it:
- dole bagged salads were $2.24 each
AND
- lemons, normally 33 cents each, were a dime!!!!
I bought ten. Granted, these are small lemons and one lemon provides about 2 tablespoons juice (but that could be because I freeze them.)Frozen lemons are awesome for baked goods and sauces.

I tease that as long as I have lemons, butter and flour, we can eat like kings.
But then Came my boneheaded move. I bought two containers of fat free half and half. Dumb. Very dumb. Isn't fat free half and half MILK?

Today we went to Wegmans. We bought a variety of things we normally would consider a splurge and thus didn't get as much as we could have if pinching pennies.

I bought:
- wegmans fresh 1/2 and 1/2, 1.29
