How about a thread just for the deals we find each week? It may help break things up a bit so we don't have the million page thread. Here are the details from my Harris Teeter shopping trip today. These deals are still good through Tuesday. My subtotal before sales and coupons was $109.33 and I paid them: $19.92. That's a savings of 82%! Whooo Hoooo!

This store did not have the best buys this week on those items so I will get them somewhere else on sale and use the meat and frozen veggies in my freezer to create my meal plan for this week. Faye
