Shopping for Staples

Happy weekend, everybody! As the semester is settling down from the first few weeks of chaos, I’m really hoping to get back into blogging a little bit more. You know… a little bit more than never .

So today I’m popping in to give you guys a quick peek into my grocery shopping trip from this week. This time I’m doing something a little different, by showing you some of the stuff I got from Walmart too. While I don’t really consider trips to Walmart as part of my weekly grocery budget, I do get a lot of staples there, as you’ll see below.

It’s funny to notice how much of the stuff I get from Walmart is a HUGE size. I got HUGE cereal, a HUGE jar of peanut butter (That one’s for Brent. I only really eat Teddie brand and what I make myself), a HUGE container of Goldfish, and a HUGE jug of vinegar.
