After having a nice breakfast of oatmeal, oj and coffee, I went out and ran all of my errands for the day. I have never seen the grocery store so crowded.
I picked up 6 packages of Lean Ground Turkey and Turkey Breast cutlets for our freezer. After getting them B1G1F and using turkey winetags, I paid $1.50 total for all 6. This will give us 11 meals of poultry. I also purchased 2 qts. of beer to have on hand when company comes to dinner. I used 2 of the $1.00 beer tags so got the beer relatively cheap.
Then I headed to my local CVS to pick up regular enteric coated aspririn and a box of the low dose(81 mg.) and a refill for my Scotch Packaging Tape dispenser. I used a $3.00 off 10.00 CVS coupon wyb CVS products and then paid for my purchases with a $25.00 GC that I got free a few weeks ago with a prescription purchase. I love not spending any money out of pocket.
I have a few hours to get some things done around here before I make baked Parmesian chicken for dinner. Chicken was bought at $1.49 a lb. a couple of months ago. The other ingredients are:
Parmesian cheese which I buy at Costco in the really large container, white wine(purchased in a jug(cheap wine) which I use for cooking)
and chicken broth that I made and froze from the last time we had a whole roaster. I will throw a dish of au gratin potatoes in the oven to bake at the same time as the chicken.
I am off to do some things. Be back later.
Busy Monday Morning
