Food For Life Tortillas ($3.39), Guinoa spagetti noodles ($1.99), Lightlife Smart Ground ($3.49), Tofuttie Cream Cheese and Sour Cream ($2.59 & $2.89), Earthbalance butter ($4.19), Soysation shredded cheese ($1.99), Tempeh maple bacon ($3.65), Soy Dream ($2.79), Follow Your Heart Veganaise ($4.99), Tree of Life Tamari ($2.49), Nutritional yeast flakes ($3.31), Mezzetta Arrabbata ($5.35), Bob's Red Mill flaxseed meal ($4.09), Hodgson Mill multigrain cereal ($1.59), Arrowhead Mills pizza crust ($1.99), Udis whole grain bread ($3.89) and The Grainless Bake cinnamon raisin bread ($8.09).
So I feel like I did really well here. Everything was insanely cheaper than I had seen at Dillons Marketplace. I will say that the only reason I bought $8 bread was that I wasn't paying attention when he scanned it and I thought I had grabbed the one that was on sale for $3.69. Oh well! A few of the items I got are not what I expected. The Multigrain Ceral and the Fakon (fake bacon) are both not gluten free. But it is inevitable that mistakes are going to happen. I am still going to eat them I will just try and be a little more conscience.
So after the health food store we headed to Dillons Marketplace to pick up some produce:
Firm Tofu ($1.79), White mushrooms ($2.00), Chipotle seasoning ($3.95), Blackened seasoning ($3.09), Island fruit leather ($0.49), Almonds ($2.50), Blueberries ($3.99), Portabello mushrooms ($3.99), Rasperries ($3.99), Strawberries ($2.50), Asparagus ($3.62), Avacodo ($1.49), Yellow squash ($0.70), Zucchini ($0.70), Sugar snap peas ($2.99), Spinach ($1.89), White onions ($2.99), Garlic ($0.59), Tomatoes ($2.99/lb), Jalepenos ($1.48/lb), Lemons ($0.59), Limes ($0.50), Red onions ($1.09/lb), Bananas ($0.56/lb), Carrots ($1.50), Polenta ($3.99), Eggplant ($3.49), Broccoli ($1.78/lb), Lettuce ($1.88), Baby potatoes ($2.99), Cilantro ($0.99)
I think we might have gotten a better deal on some of this produce at Wal-Mart but at least I got everything (almost) on my list. So the total for shopping this week is (with tax) $192.76. This may seem like a lot for a week but in reality, a lot of these items are staples that I won't have to pick up again during the cleanse.
So since I was adding all this new stuff to the fridge, I decided I needed to clean it out and throw away everything that would go bad before the cleanse is over. Here is what I threw away:
Crab meat, pepperjack cheese, laughing cow cheese, deli turkey, heavy whipping cream, ketchup, parmesean cheese, apagetti sauce, Mayo and some herb flatbread. The crab would have stayed good, however, I LOVE crab and I didn't want to tempt myself.
So there goes the finals in the shopping wars! I do a few more things to pick up tomorrow but other than that I ready to go!
