Grocery shopping raises my blood pressure!

Does it do the same to you? Well, I decided that shopping at a certain place that claims to have the lowest prices is no longer for me. So what did I do? I started doing my shopping at Sprouts and Target. Some say Sprouts is too expensive (and I agree to an extent), but they have great sales and their produce is the least expensive I can find anywhere. I'm sitting here looking at a sale ad at this very moment planning my shopping trip this weekend. Sale ads are where it's at. I now plan my meals around them and buy up the meat when they have a sale and toss it in the deep freezer. My life is forever changed! Seriously... This week, the boneless, skinless chicken breast is $1.69/lb and it's all natural! And like I said, the produce is unbeatable in price and quality. Granted, the selection is not huge and you have to be patient because sometimes they're out of goat milk (because they're having an awesome sale until the end of the month). I shop at Target for our toiletries and anything else I can't get or is too expensive at Sprouts. The first week I shopped there (just started a couple of weeks ago), I spent LESS than I would at the place where I use to shop. LESS! Also, it's not nearly as packed and the employees are all really kind and seem to be happy to work there. That goes a long way with me. Oh! Last week, I got a three pound chuck roast for $9! That's unheard of! Pretty sure I am a happier person for changing our families diets and my shopping experience. Sprouts... I'm a HUGE fan :)
