CVS, Walmart & Roxie's - Oh My!

We hit up a few stores the past few days for things we ran out of.  Then I kind of went on a baking supply shopping spree.  I'll have cookies coming out of my ears this year.

Trip 1 - CVS

1 Half & Half - $3.29
Total - $3.29

I told the husband to pick some up on his way home from work.  That's what he got.

Trip 2 - Walmart

1 Crisco - $4.54
5 lbs Sugar - $2.24
Total - $6.78

Trip 3 - Another Walmart

4 Nestle Morsels - $1.78 ea
2 Libby Pumpkins - $1.37 ea
2 Eagle Sweetened Condensed Milk - $1.50 ea
1 Argo Corn Starch - $1.27
1 Jet-Puffed Mini Marshmellows - $1.34
Powdered Sugar - $1.50
Pine Room Spray - $2.00
Friehoffer's Bread - $1.97
1 Reynold's Parchment Paper - $2.84 ($1/1 MFC from paper) $1.84

Total - $22.78

- I went to Walmart on my way to Roxie's to get Corn Starch, Parchment Paper and Powdered Sugar.  What I found is that have some wicked cheap baking stuff.  So I went a little crazy.  I really don't shop at Walmart for groceries because, well I just don't.  I have 2 Walmarts near me.  One is small and their grocery department isn't that big (it's seriously one of the smallest Walmarts I have ever been in).  The bigger one is always busy.  It's just not worth it to go there (plus, it can be a little scary at times). I went at 8:30 am, it was dead, and I regretted not bringing my coupons.

Trip 4- Roxie's

Boneless, Skinless Chicken Thigh Filets - $2.31
2 lbs Carrots - .89
Half a Butternut Squash - .74
2.2 lbs Family Pack Steak - $9.45

2 Plumrose Bacon - $1.99 ea
5 lbs Potatoes - $1.49
1 stray kitten who wanted to attack my meat - $200 at the MSPCA

Total (minus cat) - $28.74
