Frugalista Shopping: Week of June 27

This Fruglista had a busy morning shopping.  I was prepared with three piles of coupons: one stack for Meijer, CVS, and Walgreens.  I would say that I had a very successful day.  I was able to stock up on some pantry and freezer staples to last me for a while. I also stocked up on a lot of drinks to keep my HHBL hydrated during these hot summer days!
