Good Things Utah Link

What a blast that was! Thank you to all of my friends & family who came to support me. It was a lot of fun and they have asked me back May 28th to cook in the kitchen (my FAVORITE thing!). Personally, I think they invited me back to have our enthusiastic audience back---you guys were great!

Thank you to everyone for your support...there are so many sweet people out there! Thank you for your emails, love, prayers, and kindness. You make this job worth it :)

"We have been using your service for three weeks now and love it. Just wanted to say thanks. Our monthly expenses are down and our food storage is up. We did our shopping for this week and only spent $100.00 but came home with more food than we can eat. We have been telling all our friends and family about your service. Here is a picture of our 'loot'." (They matched all of the 'red' deals at Walmart)

"I spent $128.76 and saved (according to their fresh value calculations $248.27 (General Mills Savings) and $29.30 in bonus buy savings…Definitely paid for my membership already! Thank you!** PS – I also went to Smiths and saved over 50% there too!" J

"About 10 years ago while my children were still young, I subscribed to a simlar service which cost me $30 a month and it was sooo worth it. I had the best food storage on my shelves. Now the kids are gone, but I want the security of having a good food storage again. Thank you so much for all of your efforts. I am totally floored by the exceptionally reasonable monthly fee. We will be sharing this web site with the women in our neighborhood next month. I'm sure there will be a lot of excitement over this great information. "

"Can I just say I spent over $1000 in the grocery stores last week? Before you fall over – it is ok – I saved over 50% on almost everything I bought and we have been planning to put our tax rebate to good use building up our food storage – and I would take that over a brand new plasma tv any day! So I love your service and I am telling friends – you are the most reasonably priced service out there."

Last weeks savings$$

Last week was a GREAT week for food storage shopping! Thanks to Albertsons I was able to stock up on several items I needed for my food storage. I was running low on my 'legumes' and was able to get AWESOME deals on S&W Beans--the white beans are my favorite for White Bean Chicken Chili (Yum!). The other items I added to my food storage last week were the Lipton Onion Soup Mixes (great to have in your storage for flavoring/spices), Lipton Rice/Pasta Sides (makes an easy side dish or meal in an emergency or on a busy night), Best Food Mayo (part of your 'oil' yearly totals), Lawry Marinades and Terriyaki Sauce (good to have in case you had to live off of all of your rice--these would give it some flavor and are good for marinating in a hurry), and Wishbone salad dressing (part of your 'oil' yearly totals). Here's what I bought (to give you an idea of how much money you can save each week and how you can get your food storage shelves stocked a little at a time!)

*21 bottles of Lawry's Marinades
*16 boxes of Lipton Onion Soup Mix
*47 Lipton Rice/Pasta Sides
*4 Wishbone Salad Dressings
*6 jars of Best Foods Mayonnaise
*70 cans of S&W beans (black, kidney, and white beans)

Total: $106.56 + tax
TOTAL SAVED: $233.69!!

I LOVE grocery shopping!!

Do you ever come home from the store SO thrilled with the purchases you made! Today was one of those times for me. For those who live near the new Harmons off of Bangerter and I-15 (it was their Grand Opening), they had some GREAT sales this week on their meat and other items! To give you an idea of how much money you can save by only buying those items in the ads that are GREAT (red on my deals sheets) deals, let me tell you what I bought....

*27lbs. of hand trimmed boneless/skinless chicken breast
*32lbs. of 93% lean ground beef
*3 loaves of bread
*5 dozen eggs
*Swiss Cheese
*23 Yoplait yogurts (Albertsons)
*4 boxes of fruit snacks (Albertsons)
*4 boxes of granola bars (Albertsons)
*16 lbs. of fresh strawberries (for freezer jam) & the Pectin to make the jam
*108 bars of Ivory Soap (I think that is my LIFE supply of soap!)
*14 Secret deoderants
*4 gallons of milk
*2 Betty Crocker cookie mixes (Albe's)
*10 boxes of Angel food cake (Albe's)
*10 Pilsbury crescent doughs (Albe's)
*And enough produce to make my WHOLE WEEKS meals for (mushrooms, zucchini, 5 lbs. potatoes, green onions, cilantro, bananas, limes, romaine lettuce, celery, onions, tomatoes, cucumbers, etc)
**As an added bonus, I got a coupon for .50 off 20 gallons of gas at Harmons (that's $10 off-yippee!!)

$245.18

Is that cool or what?? I was thrilled! We have been in Canada & Washington all week and I couldn't believe how expensive the groceries are there. We spent WAY over $225 for one weeks worth of food. I didn't realize how lucky we have it living in Utah. All the more reason to stock up our freezers and food storage shelves, because if our food prices ever get to what they are out of state and out of the country--wow! It would be tough to add higher food prices and higher gas prices to our monthly budget.

Thanks for letting me share my shopping success today. Hopefully it gives you an idea of how much money you can save if you watch the ads carefully (or...let me do the work for you and tell you EXACTLY which items you should buy and where to buy them :)

Have fun shopping and if you have success stories, email them to me and I will post them under our "Top That" portion of our blog. Have a great day!!
