Well I am super excited because a new organic food delivery service just started in my area. They offered a trial of the service- 15 lbs of assorted fruits and veg for $15 and it is delivered!

So I am going to test it out and see what I think. In the meantime, here is this week’s trip.

4 Nabisco Snack Saks $.99 each- Used $1/2 coupons= .49
3 Del Monte Smoothies $1- used $1/1 coupons= Free
2 Cantaloupe .67 each
Kraft Cheese .99- used $1/2 coupon (tearpad found at Raley’s)= .49 each
Oranges
10lbs potatoes $3.99
Bananas

I can’t find my receipt but I paid about $9.  I used a $3 cat from last week and a $3/10 produce catalina that I got at the checkstand.

I went to Target to get coffee and discovered a ton of clearance in the frozen section!  So I got quite a few things.

Frozen Peas .54
2 Frozen Green Beans .54 each
3 larges bags frozen broccoli .98 each
Alexia Fries .97- Used $1 coupon= Free
Archer farms Sweet Potato Fries $1.24 each
Kim & Scott’s Gourmet Pretzels $2.48 (these are so good!)
Rhodes Cinnamon Rolls $1.84
Whole Wheat Dinner Rolls $1.22
Pepperidge Farms Texas Toast $1.14
2 Old Orchard Juice .58

Total $14.83

The total was about $24 – I still have to go to Raley’s this week for the Black Angus beef and milk.

    Christina they are tricky because I found them in the fresh fruit section in the produce area. Near specialty salad dressings and things NOT frozen foods.

    Do you mind sharing the name of the organic delivery service?

    Sophie- I looked into it online once and it was more than I wanted to spend. This one they came to my doorstep and it is called: Farm Fresh to You. The guy said that you get 15 lbs of assorted items for $15 as a trial. Then the price jumps to $20 for 15lbs which still isn’t bad. You can customize what you want. So I will see what happens.

    I introduced my cousins to that delivery service and they love it. I may have to try the introductory offer out myself. Although lately we’ve been making bi-weekly trips to Denios farmers market for our produce and fruit. It would be nice to have something delivered. They said you even get some recipe cards for any unusual produce that they deliver.
