Once again, my shopping trip didn't go quite as planned! I caused some coupon confusion at Walgreens...and then we totally ran out of diapers the middle of last week and had to make an extra run for those! It really is too bad we couldn't have run out of diapers during the big Huggies sale/coupons/register rewards deal going on at Walgreens next week!! And then, I should have used a gift card I have for Walmart to help with the Pampers (my preference), but of course I didn't think of that until later!! Oh well! I'm still learning!

With those "excuses" in mind, here's the breakdown for this week:
