Baby Love: Plum Organics Baby Food

Harris Teeter has Plum Organics Baby Food Pouches marked down to $0.99-$1.29, then also have them BOGO through 6/28!

This makes them $0.49-$0.64 each!  Even though I make a lot of my daughter’s food, I loaded up on mangoes, bananas and prunes because I can’t make them that cheap!  I also got the blueberry/pear/purple carrot combo since that sounded interesting.

Harris Teeter Super Doubles 6/22 – Trip #1

I have been a little absent from blogging due to lack of time.  With that being said, in order to keep blogging, I am not going to be providing coupon match ups on Little Green Me except for in Baby Love posts and other specific product posts.  I find most of my grocery matchups on Southern Savers and there are a few extras I find in the store or in my email ad.  If you ever have a specific question or need help, just comment or send me an email at littlegreenjen@gmail.com

Today was the first day of Super Doubles at HT!  This time, I am focusing on things we REALLY need and use regularly in our household – I got in a little trouble for buying 6 bottles of BBQ sauce 🙂  I am also trying to stock up a few staples items and snacks for our beach trip with my husband’s family at the end of July.

Here is what made the list today and the price I paid:

(4) Hefty One Zip Storage Bags – 45¢/each

(1) Nutella Spread – $1.99

(4) Frosted Mini-Wheats – 99¢/each

(3) Crystal Light Pure – $1.19/each

Total Spent: $26.52

Total Saved: $71.21

My new record at 73% savings!!!

 

Choices, Choices…

My Plate replaced the USDA Food Pyramid this week.  It is an effort to encourage and enable Americans make healthier choices.  Although I commend the effort, I highly doubt that changing a picture is going to get the job done.  What do you think?
