So I have mentioned a few times in posts before that there's a little shop here called Dollar something. I don't even remember what it's really called but we just call him the snack guy. Anyway during the school year we visit him a lot, because as you all know I pack lunches usually at least four days a week for both kids. As you all know, food is expensive. Since Sleepy Joe has taken the reigns of our country it (along with everything else) has gotten even MORE expensive.
So today after we went and got minnows for the turtle and fish, we decided to go to the snack guy and see what he's got. He buys stuff whole sale at Sam's Club and then sells it at discount. It works out well for us. The fun part is he goes once a week to stock up, so his stuff is always different. When Sam's Club doesn't have what he wants he goes to a wholesale supplier in Panama City.
We ALWAYS get great deals from him, but today we did SUPER good. So I thought I would share our haul with y'all.
So here we go:
-Betty Crocker Complete Cookie Cups Mix and set (comes with frosting, sprinkles, cookie mix and the cups to cook them in) x2
-Jimmy Dean Frozen Pre-Cooked Patty Sausace Original Flavor 24 count. x2
-Propel Flavored Water Mango Flavored x4
-Fruity Flavored Water Apple Grape 4 pack
-Mtn Dew 20 oz x2
-Bugels Hot Buffalo x2
-Funyuns Flamin Hot x5
-Takis Watz x2
-Ice Breakers 20 pack Cubes Slim Pack
-Tampico Citrus Drink x 3
Im not sure, its been a busy day. But I feel like I might be missing something. And the picture came out kind of wonky because I tried to take a panoramic. LOL oops.
What's the best deal you've gotten recently?

Well a couple weeks ago, a 100 dollar cart was only twenty-four after I used my food card.

Food stamps? That's not really saving money. Cause it's still coming out of pocket.

Seems like you got a really good deal. I order my groceries online once a month and lately discovered that going directly through Walmart I save so much more than using Instacart, Also I have a survey site I get gift cards from and I can get 10 or 20 off each Walmart order

Oh yeah. Walmart direct is way cheaper than one of the other delivery services. We usually do Walmart pick up or delivery but sometimes they are too busy and a couple of times I have used Door Dash to order some essentials from Dollar General.
