Now my explanation to you about my purchases:
The Chex Mix was free and will do great for lunches. Swiss Miss was free with overage and will go to the church pantry. Detergent is our brand, so I decided to stock up while the gettin' was good. Juice is for current need. Frank's purchase is to replace our "stand by" in the pantry since the last one just went to the fridge when opened. I will use 2 of the evaporated milks during the upcoming holidays; the other two will go to the church pantry. The canned fruit is some of Patrick's favorites. The cookies will last us a while and are a guilty pleasure. The fabric softener I got only because it was free--it will go to the church pantry. The fries will keep in the freezer for a while and since they were such a good price ($1.25 each), they will get used later. Soap was for stockpiling due to good prices. Pepperidge Farm products were just good prices for indulgences; I have no good excuse. The spreadable butter was a current need. The buns, chicken, beef, bread, and milks were all current needs (we usually have chocolate in the house but although not a need, it was just too good a price to pass up).
Huge thanks to Southern Savers and Coupon Mom who pointed me to most of these coupons!

Cool deals Kaye! We all have chocolate indulgences!!! :) I went to kroger tuesday when they had that moonlight sale and stocked up on hotdogs! How come you won't use the fabric softener?
I only use softener on my delicates, as it is not good for use on towels or infant sleepwear or bedding. I have a post about that here. With my delicates, i just use dryer sheets with softener in them. So I have no need for the liquid stuff.
The chocolate had BETTER last a while. But at $0.24 a piece, how could I resist?! =)
