21 Days to a More Disciplined Life

I got all of this at Kroger for just $8.24!!

I went to Kroger a few days ago to take advantage of some freebie coupons I had and I was so excited with the deals that I found!

Only one coupon — the Gillette Razor coupon — was one I had signed up for online. The other freebie coupons were ones that Kroger sent to me in the mail.

For years, we stopped getting Kroger coupons in the mail. I think it was because we had forgotten to change our address on our account when we moved.

So we recently got a new card and put our new address on it. Well, would you know it? Within a few weeks, we got a packet full of amazing free coupons in the mail! And then we just got another packet of high-value coupons a few weeks later!

My Kroger Deals

In addition to some freebies I got, I also found some great markdowns at Kroger, too! Here are the deals I got:

  • 2 loaves of Whole Wheat Bread — marked down to $1.49 per loaf
  • Dole Salad Blend — originally $3.49, used FREE coupon
  • Jif Peanut Butter — originally $2.69, used FREE coupon
  • Silk Almond Milk — originally $2.69, used FREE coupon
  • Suja juice — marked down to $0.79, used $1/1 Kroger coupon = FREE + overage!
  • 1 package Private Selections Bacon — originally $4.29, used FREE coupon
  • Gillette razor — originally $9.99, used FREE coupon
  • 2 pounds of bananas — marked down to $0.78
  • 3 bags of avocados — marked down to $0.99 per bag (there were 6-7 avocados in each bag!)

My total with tax ($1.72) was $8.24!! You can watch my video here where I share more about this grocery haul.

 

What are you going to do with all those avocados???

Yes, I know that that is a LOT of avocados. And many of you asked right away when I posted this on Instagram Stories, what on EARTH are you going to do with all those avocados.

I asked for suggestions from you all on how to use them and I ended up taking your advice and decided to try freezing them.

You can watch this video to see how I froze them. And then look for a post soon with more details and step-by-step instructions.
