Grocery store (two trips)
Baby formula $14.52 (tossed the receipt before taking note of savings)
$46.44 out of pocket
Saved $8.77
We ate out three times this week. So while we didn't do much grocery shopping, and saved, we didn't save as much as we could have if we hadn't eaten out so much. Also, our savings could have been greater, but I bought Steve beer and splurged on the expensive hot dogs (without a coupon)...plus I HAD to buy some things to supplement my pantry and make complete meals.

I really do love the stock up mentality. I bought all our pepsi on sale a week or two ago and haven't had to buy any since now that the price is back up.
