Savings for the two week shopper

This week's grocery trip was a little more expensive, although I live with a man who eats mostly red meat, sweets, and dairy :) being blood type O and all. With that said, I was very happy with our savings for groceries for the next two weeks using of course sales & coupons. All shopping was done within a 2 mile stretch of our house. Starting with the furtherest and working our way in.
