Today I did the running for the groceries and Walmart wasn't too bad, but Wegmans was a nightmare. I think I drove around the parking lot for at least 5 minutes just to find a parking spot. The sad thing is that I only needed three things from Wegmans, I got the majority of my groceries at Walmart. Here's what was purchased:

Walmart
Wegmans
Item
Prices
Item
Prices
2 boxes of stuffing $1.00 x 2 = $2.00 dinner rolls $4.29
mash potato flakes $1.72 family pk chicken breasts $11.22
deodorant $3.97 red delicious apples $6.35
trash bags $6.98
food bags $2.98
brown sugar $1.98
sharp cheddar cheese $4.72
butter $3.74
green beans $0.68
corn $0.98
pumpkin puree $1.88

Walmart Total = $33.94 Wegmans Total = $22.41

We had a carry over from last week of $33.07 which made this week's budget to $83.07!  The total spent was $56.35.  Still under the new budget by $26.72.  I also earned $0.50 for the butter through Ibotta.
