The last week we spent a whopping $169.15 on groceries and the savings rate came in at 41.94%. Spending for the month is $478.23 and the savings rate is 44.50% for August before rebate monies are added in.
Rebates earned in August--
$134.87 on Ibotta
$27.90 on Checkout51
$5.96 on Aisle and Misc.
$168.73 total in $$
Total spent after rebates is $309.50
for August. It's crazy how much more food cost here than in LA. We cherry pick at ShopRite but it's not as good as it was when we lived in NJ back in the 80's obviously. At least the sales tax is lower here. I still miss Kroger but NOT Louisiana. 8-((

0 Pts. on My Points
