That asian spicy noodle sounds good. I would use my low carb noodles. Yummy.
There is a charge for Instacart. I forget how much my sis pays for it. Walmart has grocery delivery too but they are often out of stuff as the prices are so good. I pay the low monthly fee for Walmart delivery.
Door dash is another good option if you are just buying a few items. I would go to shop in person if I could as it is cheaper.
Kroger's has a "click list" where you can order it online, then go to their store and they load it into the cart for you. That may be cheaper to do, but I don't know. My other sister loves the click list. She doesn't have to worry about tipping anyone that way.
I like Aldi's on Instacart, as it is cheaper than most major stores. They have good paper products, too.
They added the dollar general on Instacart in my area. I may check it out.
Back in the day, during a layoff, I went to the 99 cent store and got all my soaps and cleaning products. It was cheap and good! I then went to a little local grocery store near my house, and got loads of good fresh food for 2/3rds less than the major chains. I really enjoyed that. They even had a Spanish version of clamato which was so cheap and good! Unfortunately, they closed down. They even sold homemade tamales. Yum.
I was also introduced to an Armenian grocery store where I got great food for cheap. It makes me miss my old neighborhood.
Sorry I've been MIA. That happens sometimes.1 -
Woo Hoo! You have returned beccaboo! Yay!
I did not do any shopping yet today. I do want to buy the best bargain that I can find for Jordan's Skinny Syrup. I can get such syrup cheaper on eBay then on the Jordan's Skinny Syrups website.
I cannot decide on which flavor that I want. Cookie Dough is so tempting! For 0 carbs 0 calories and 0 sugar... I cannot go wrong!
Thanks again beccaboo!2 -

My brand new 2 week old Bella coffee maker quit on me 2 days ago. I bought it off of a seller on Poshmark.com, new in box, unopened. I contacted Bella but I don't think anything can be done. So, I went out and bought a Toastmaster. Spending that money made me cringe. But, I need mochas to motivate me for work in my office.2

My new laptop was a bargain... Guess how much? $42.00!
I have been consuming a lot of sandwiches. Obviously, sandwiches do not cost much.
The bad part about sandwiches is that I want chips to go with them.
At my last bingo, I won 3 large bags of potato chips! uuugh

I know to consume vegetables, but I am not going to deprive myself. I just do not need big portions of potato chips.
Today, our neighbor brought over loaves of bread, buns, and donuts! Very thoughtful.
Then, today, I bought 5 boxes of Evian mineral water at Dollar Tree for an amount of $6.25. A total bargain!
The roommates might be going to Sam's Club soon. I have been begging them to pick up some salami, pepperoni, and cheese. We all have to agree on groceries. 1 roommate agrees on the lunch meat and cheese. The other roommate is still thinking. uuugh We have other grocery stores, but Sam's Club is obviously the cheapest.

Yesterday saved about $16 between sale items and a free gift card at the grocery store. Today I saved $$ on a weed wacker and blower set.0

My lunch today was for free! Tortilla chips won at bingo. Marzetti vegetable dip for dipping from roommate's sister. For dinner, I might have a Pick for 5 burger. At our local grocery stores, a Pick for 5 is certain foods, 5 items of them, $20.00 total. For example, you can choose a box of frozen onion rings, burgers, pizza bites, french fries and hash browms for $20.00 total! A real bargain.

I own a one cup coffee maker. You can use either k-cups or coffee grounds. I use coffee grounds instead of fancy k-cups which saves me tons of money. I even buy my coffee grounds from dollar tree which saves me even more money!1
