Grocery round up Oct 26th

I hit 2 stores this week. I think in order to keep my budget as low as I want it, that I will have to shop around more. On Friday I needed to pick up some things for a brunch at church, so I got in on the deals at that store. The picture on the left shows what I bought for $25.80.

gallon milk
1/2 OJ
peanuts
2 spaghetti sauce (donation)
loaf bread
sliced cheese
8 oz cheddar
cheese cubes

This morning I went to my regular grocery store and got the following for $25.44.
