BJ's, Price Rite and Shaws Trip

I *heart* buying diapers. Really I do. I forgot how fast a newborn blazes through them, and had to run to BJ's before hubby needed to leave for work on Saturday - so I packed up the Boy Wonder and we had a fun mommy/peanut excursion! I wasn't going to hit the Shaw's but the siren song of good deals got me again :)

The Shaw's Catalina deal with Old El Paso products ($3 off meat purchase WYB 6, $1 off meat purchase WYB 3) IS still active, and includes the seasoning packets! You can buy those for about $1 apiece, making this a SWEET deal. (see my transactions below)

BJ's:
**264-count Luvs size 1 diapers - $29.99 (this works out to about 11 cents per diaper, actually BETTER than the BJ's brand size 1-2's!)
**Diaper Genie refill - $4.99
**Twin pack 40 oz Skippy Peanut Butter - $7.49
**Milk - $2.33 (anyone else notice milk prices going up again? Price Rite milk was expensive last week!)
**12-lb bag Arm & Hammer Baking Soda - $5.69 (This is actually cheaper than buying the 1-lb boxes of Price Rite brand for $0.50 each! I use it in cleaning around the house so I need a LOT)
**Coffee Mate flavored creamer 32 oz - $2.99

Total OOP - $54.09 (curse you, diapers!)

That puts my monthly spending at $195.69! That included diapers for both boys and some formula, but since we were eating freezer meals those were groceries we didn't have to buy - I'm THRILLED we are under goal for the month but next month should be more typical since I'm out of OAMC meals!
