Lord Barbara you do NOT want my list! I have 2 receipts, one is about 2 feet long, the other a foot and a half totalling $135 and 90 something respectively LOL I'd be typing forever!

Congratulations on being a citywide sensation! I have already went shopping. Spent $130.00. Got a lot of the same stuff you did. But some other things too. So I suppose I can't exactly play. But I can tell you what I do with my hamburger and chicken I suppose. lol - Barbara
You go girl...talk of the town. I have already been to grocery store, so I will post my recpt. and y'all can see what I bought. LOL
Hugs and WTG!! (I listened to MY CD just a little while ago)

$1.23 in sales tax???? Unbelievable!

Hard to say for sure....especially on meat, cause you don't mention sizes....but when I go back and look at your list the things I buy seem to be within 10 cents of what you pay. I pledge to myself never to spend more than 2.99/lb for pork, beef or premium chicken.......Seem to usually buy larger packaging than you...especially on toilet tissue and puddings.......Shrimp frozen in store hear runs $5 - $7/lb. Got some straight out of the Gulf last weekend for $3/lb. But delivered pizza here is outrageous...buy the time you add in Pete's buffaloe wings and some cheesy bread...we spend $25 - $30 for the four of us. So, every so often I buy shrimp instead, make easy, quick Louisianna Fish Fry gumbo and save money!! - Barbara
I think I would have the ice cream and syrup. LOL
Sounds about right for our stores...only I don't have to buy eggs...I just go out and squeeze the hens and get em fresh! Duck eggs and now Turkey eggs too!
