"What can...young mother[s] [do]...to reduce the pressure [of raising young children] and enjoy [their families] more?...Recognize that the joy of motherhood comes in moments. There will be hard times and frustrating times. But amid the challenges, there are shining moments of joy and satisfaction... [Treasure] the doing a little more and the getting it done a little less."
M. Russell Ballard, "Daughters of God," Ensign, May 2008, 108–10

Super Savings at Kroger this Week

Here are some great deals I got at Kroger this week. (To see details about coupons I used, click on this post.)


  • The Barilla Pasta was $0.45
  • I got 4 packs of Huggies diapers/pull-ups. I had got $4 off for the Kroger deal, plus $3.50 in manuf. cpns, and $4.50 in shortcuts coupons.
  • Nestle Milkshakes was free
  • Quaker Quakes $1.00
  • Bounty Basic Big Roll Paper Towels was free after manuf cpn and shortcuts cpn
Not pictured:
  • Ground Beef was $.99 per lb. for 5 lb. tube
  • Tyson Chicken was $1.88 per lb.
  • Half Gallon Milk $1.88--this was $0.02 less per gallon than buying their gallon milk. Not great compared to Sam's Club, where I try to go to get milk, but sometimes it is not worth the extra trip.
Also pictured is the reusable shopping bag I got there for free. I actually got it last week, but saved probably 4 plastic bags by using it this week. :)

I'll say thems are great savings! And every time I go to the grocery store, I kick myself that I forgot my usable bags!

so, can you use man. coupons in addition to the short-cuts coupons? I have not done short-cuts before. But we are needing diapers and pull-ups this week and Kroger is running the 4 off of 20 deal, so I am wanting to maximize that one. Do tell!")

Maryanne, yes, the short-cuts coupons are loaded electronically on your Kroger card, so they are automatically deducted when you buy the item. They don't really "count" as coupons, so you can use manufacturer coupons on top of them.
