Grand Total: 51.96
I know this is a little over our budget, but we had a gift card to a particular grocery store in the area which I would normally never go to because it is so expensive, and so a few of the items (artichoke hearts, ricotta, veggie crumble) are from there and so the prices were higher than if I had gotten them at wal-mart which is what I would usually have done since Aldi didn't carry that stuff. So, I only spent like $40 because I only paid at Aldi, so just make sure if you are getting these items that you take care to only go to the cheaper stores...it really does make a big difference!!!
