Do you ever look at the lovely pile of groceries you have amassed from shopping the bargains and wonder "now what am I supposed to do with this?" If so here are some menu ideas for those shopping Schnucks this week
Shopping list
Catfish nuggets
Sweet corn
Summer squash
Pork butt
Italian, french or other substantial bread rolls
Potato chips
Broccoli
Tomatoes
Chicken breast
Potatoes
Bratwurst
Buns
Pork flavor ramen noodles
BBQ sauce
Fried cat fish nuggets (on sale for $1.99 lb); fresh sweet corn (.25 an ear); summer squash
Pulled pork sandwiches ( put pork butt, .99 a lb this week in crock pot, season w/ your choice of rosemary, garlic, onion, pepper flakes and 1 c of liquid--water, broth, beer, apple juice are all good choices depending on your taste and cook until it is falling off the bone; save "left overs" for another meal because you will see this as an ingredient later on) Serve w/ chips ($1.88 a bag of Lays) and fresh veggie platter (broccoli crowns $1.29 lb, tomatoes $1.79 lb, anything else that sounds appealing)

Grilled brats w/ your choice of toppings; potato salad;
Pasta and sauce (Hunts sauce $1 a can, if you can afford an extra can or 2 this is not a bad price; Schnucks pasta .88 a box--if you want to cook extra it freezes well for quick prep later--throw in leftover chicken or sliced brats if you'd like)
Pork Lo Mein cook pork flavor Lo Mein noodles (abt 1 pkg per 2 adults eating) and add abt 1/2 c cooked pork; 3/4 c steamed broccoli and 1/2 T soy sauce per adult serving.

How to stock pile
|
You might want to start "stock piling" great sales because the stock pile is truly the way to get a varied and inexpensive diet!
People ask me "how much" they should stock pile and unfortunately I don't have a really good answer for that because it is going to vary SO much based on your individual circumstances! but there are several factors to take into consideration
--How much can you afford? You do not want to put yourself in the position of not having enough to cover other needs later in the week or in the month. Set yourself a realistic budget for the week or 2 weeks or the month and STICK WITH IT. There are advantages and disadvantages to budgeting on each of the time frames, most people find that they tend to learn to use the one that meets with their income schedule most effectively regardless of what the income schedule is. Many people find the envelope method (where they put all the money available for the particular expenditure available in one envelope and quit spending when the envelope is empty) to be the most effective choice!
--How much is your household likely to consume before there is another sale and before the food goes out of date? I have been known to buy non-perishables at 75% off at a store going out of business sale and turn down 90% off sales at the same store because I doubted we could finish enough of the item before it went out of date to make it truly a good bargain!
--How much can you reasonably store? There is no point to buying an entire steer even for a really, really good price if all you have is the top freezer in an apartment size refrigerator. You also do not want to "have to" store granola bars in your sock drawer and cereal under the bed!

More coupons!
|
I am excited to be in Champaign (temporarily--still working on relocation) AND I've found out that you can get a full copy of the Sunday Chicago Tribune from the Barnes and Noble at Marketplace. What this means for avid couponers is that you can get more coupons from the larger city papers! Barnes and noble will allow you to pre-pay to reserve a copy if you aren't sure you can get there in time to pick up on Sunday.
This week's paper should have both Smart Source and Red Plum inserts!

CVS Coupon match ups 7/4 - 7/10

I am hoping to move to IL next month and then I'll be able to give you better match ups with ALL of the inserts but since the Proctor and Gamble one differs very little from location to location this should be a good start so get your newspaper and start clipping!

CVS and P&G coupons
|
Just a little heads up, there is to be a new P&G insert this week and I hear that there will be some ECB deals using those q's.
Also if you got one of the Pantene coupons that printed at the register this week on some CVS ExtraCare accounts (I got one, my daughter didn't) hold onto it until next week because you might want to stack it w/ a Proctor and Gamble one AND get the ECB's

1st week menu

If anyone is interested in playing along, here is what I have planned for our family for this week. Personally I enjoy reading others' ideas and seldom follow them exactly, it tends to get my creativity going, maybe I can do the same for you.
Breakfast and Lunch at our house is are very much "free range fridge" meals. With an all adult household each on their own schedule this is just more practical. I add to the stockpile when things are on sale that I have coupons for and bake easy to heat things as needed.
SO starting out this week stockpiled items available for breakfast, lunch and snacks: Milk, yogurt, cheese (Parmesan, American, cheddar, cream), eggs, lunch meat, peanut butter, roasted almonds, tuna, strawberries, raspberries, apples, canned fruit (mandarin oranges, pineapple), broccoli florets, tomatoes, potatoes, frozen muffins (will be baking some more this week, almost out), cold cereal, oatmeal, waffles, pita pockets, tortillas, bagels, granola bars, crackers, popcorn.
And suppers
Pork roast (save left overs for Tuesday), mashed potatoes, gravy, steamed brocolli
Grilled chicken (save left overs for other meals); Yellow rice; Tomatoes, green pepper, sweet onions in raspberry vinaigrette dressing
Pork fried rice (I'm using rice cooked last week because the secret to good fried rice is to start w/ cold rice will use up left over roast, any leftover veggies, add additional veggies as needed)
Italian beef (make extra for the the freezer) on crusty bread w/ coleslaw
Tuna melt in pita pockets, grilled tomatoes w/ parmasaen cheese
Macaroni and cheese, smoked sausage, green beans

Eating on $25 per person a week, is it possible?

The short answer is "Yes it is" and I know that because I have been doing it for years for the four adults living in our home.
The big key to being able to serve varied, nutritious meals on a small budget lies in pre-planning! At the beginning of the week (for me this happens on Wednesday because that is when the majority of grocery ads come out in my area) plan the menu based on what is in your stock pile (if you haven't got a stock pile yet that is fine, you can begin building one) and on what is on sale in your local stores. The goal is to avoid paying full price for anything! Once you have planned what you are going to serve, write your shopping list--for me it helps to put a "c" beside every item I want to use a coupon for so I don't forget while I'm at the store. I also start with a list for each possible store all on one piece of paper along with prices. That way I can decide which store would be the better place for me to shop or if it would be wiser to shop multiple stores. All of that will depend on the amount of saving potential, the amount of time it would take (your time IS worth money) and any extra transportation cost. When you get to the store be aware of "what" you are planning to do with the items on your list and be prepared to substitute if you see something that would be equally good and is at a better price. For example, if you had planned on serving steamed green beans as a vegetable and fresh broccoli were on sale for less than the beans and your family would be equally happy with steamed broccoli it would probably be a good choice to change up the menu.

Hello Fellow Coupners!
|
I am very pleased and excited to be posting on Champaign County couponing! Thank you SO much to Jazzrib for allowing me to participate. The site is going to have a bit of different slant than what you are used to for awhile because I need to start out with what I have background on before I'll be able to branch out. Please leave comments about what you like or don't like and we'll try to build the site the way it will be helpful to the greatest number of people.
By way of introduction, I am a very new blogger but a very experienced couponer and grocery shopper (you will note I did not use the word "old" ;-) but put it this way I remember couponing with my mom when we would cut out coupons for 5 cents off from the newspaper). I started couponing on my own as a young adult thinking I would quit when I had enough money that I didn't need to do that anymore. A marriage and two grown children later I realized that I would prefer to coupon and spend the money we save on things I would enjoy having and doing than on groceries!
I am currently participating in a contest in conjunction with All You Magazine where the challenge is to feed your household delicious and nutritious meals for $25 or less per person per week. I thought I'd share here some of my ideas and menus along with sale match ups from the local stores. Eventually I can embed links to coupons as well but as I said, I am a very new blogger and haven't learned to do that yet.

the future

when i first began champaign county couponing, i was a single woman with a lot of time on my hands!
as you know, i recently moved and we have SO much in front of us to get done. i am going to concentrate on our home for the time being. i still LOVE coupons and deals, but maintaining this site is going to have to fall to the wayside for a little bit.
is there anyone out there who might want to take over champaign county couponing for awhile or possibly indefinitely?
if so, please send me an email and let me know!
there are a consistent 20 to 30 visitors per day and i feel terrible for not being able to give this site the time it truly deserves.

getting back into the swing of things
|
my apologies for a bad couple of weeks.
things have been SO crazy (as i'm sure you know if you've been reading).
i am FINALLY moved in to our new place... but now we've got a lot of work to do!
making a place "home" on a strict budget isn't easy. there are many diy projects to come! :)
i hope to get back in the swing of things next week!
i've missed 3 papers, so i probably won't have all the coupons you all do, but i'll do my best until i get caught up again.
in the meantime check out:
cincnnati cents for meijer
and
hip2save for cvs and walgreens
(there are some pretty good deals this week!!)

weekly update
yes, this is the second week in a row i have not gotten the paper and am not going to go shopping!
i don't have an excuse for not getting the paper; those coupons can be used later!
but...
i'm in between homes as of the moment. my living arrangements are temporary and i don't have internet!
life seems a little disorganized and a lot chaotic. most coupon bloggers do the stay at home thing. i work full time and it takes a lot of time each week to keep up with this blog as well, so i suppose you could say i'm taking a vacation until we get settled in our new home (the end of the month!!!)
here are the deals from other blogs
cvs
walgreens

i will not (i repeat.. WILL NOT) be going shopping at all this week! WOAH!
i've been so busy i feel like i haven't even had time to breathe, let alone think about coupons...
almost everything has been moved to storage.. only to be moved back out in a couple of weeks! time between one lease ending and another beginning is NO FUN.
so, i'm on break this week and i hope you all find some GREAT DEALS!

this week's update

i am getting more and more disappointed in walgreens and cvs deals as the weeks go by. this will be another week of no shopping for me!
BUT.. cvs is having some amazing deals on school supplies if you've got kids getting ready to start back up in august! check them out, they only last through tuesday.

i haven't even looked at the meijer ad yet this week! i have to be packed up and moved out of my apartment wednesday, and my little sister and i had a jam-packed weekend at the brookfield zoo and a jonas brothers concert!
i will try to make time asap..
i usually find a few more deals than are posted on the cincinnati cents.. possibly because we have different coupons? they seem to be SO regional.
(and..... i didn't even get a paper yesterday, shame on me! i hope the news-gazette still has some left)

i only do my grocery shopping at meijer and for the past few weeks meijer has hands-down had the best deals.
so... i think this site is going to convert to a meijer weekly coupon deals instead of the whole 9 yards with schnucks, iga, and county market.
if anyone does their regular shopping at any of the other stores and is willing to invest the time to do the deals, i would GLADLY post them on here!
let me know, contributers are ALWAYS welcome.
i got my new computer last week (yay!), so hopefully i'll get everything done on sunday evenings from here out.
however, i've had an amazing person step into my life and needless to say, it's consumed a lot of my free time :) that's the reason things have been a little late recently!
