I haven’t shared any of my shopping deals lately…particularly the ones from the grocery store.  This one however, was just too good to keep silent about!!

See this crazy loot??

There is a story.  My mom and I walked into Family Dollar.  I don’t even remember what we actually went in there for.  Anyway, we were ready to check out and I saw a cart with milk and fruit drink just sitting in it.  I made a comment to my mom like, “Wonder how long this has been sitting here?”.  The manager overheard me and assured me that it was just taken out of the cooler, as had a whole other shopping cart of stuff been taken out of the freezer.  The store was moving to a new building across the street and they had just emptied their coolers for the move.
She continued to tell us that we could have whatever we wanted for (drum roll please…) 90% OFF.
My mom and I quickly and quietly said, “We’ll take it all!”
We ended up with:
4 Gallons of Milk
4 Gallons of Fruit Drink
10 Pints of Breyers Icecream
3 Boxes of White Castle Mini Cheeseburgers
5 Boxes of Banquet Hot Wings
6 lbs. of Ground Beef
12 Boxes of Good Humor Icecream Bars
8 Boxes of Taquitas
3 Boxes of Hamburger Patties (not pictured)
The Grand Total…$21.00  That is a savings of over $200!!!  It’s doesn’t get much better than that…oh, and I didn’t even have to use a coupon!!!
I don’t believe in good luck.  I know this was a gift from God to my mom and I.

Blessings and Happy Shopping,

    What a great find. Did you know that you can freeze milk? My mom used to do it all the time. I always keep one in the freezer. When you thaw it out just shake it up to mix.

      My mom freezes milk too! Things don’t last too long in this household but I’ll remember that if I find a great deal like this again! Thanks.
