Heinz Ketchup and Hunts Sauces

There are so many sizes and so many different ways to get ketchup, that the best methodology for me to compare was to price this out by the ounce.  The best deal that I found for a bottle that I would buy was for the 40 oz squeeze bottle for 1.88.  Of course, you can always use coupons for this as well.

As far as Hunts tomato sauces and pastes, here are the following prices with sizes.  This was found today at ShopRite.com

Hunts Tomato Sauce 29 oz    1.00 .03 oz   
Hunts Tomato Sauce 15 oz    1.09 .07 oz   
Hunts Tomato Sauce  8 oz    .50  .06 oz
Hunts Tomato Paste 6 oz    .67 .11 oz

Grocery Shopping

This past week I finally had a chance to sit down and analyze my finances and realized that grocery shopping is KILLING me. I decided that it was time to start grocery shopping like a normal person and start looking for sales. I made a list of different staples that I use every month and started searching for prices online but kept getting turned around in circles by different coupon sites and other advertisements. So I am changing this blog to be about finding deals and to list different prices that I was able to get for staples.

The first item that I would like to mention is diapers. I have 2 kids in diapers and being that I use disposable diapers the amount that I have been spending has really been adding up. The solution for this was to use Amazon and to become an Amazon Mom. There is no charge for joining and you get an additional 15% off as well as free shipping for the year. In addition to that I also "subscribed and saved". What this is, is for different products that you know you will be using on a monthly or bi-monthly basis you can set up a delivery for that item and get an even bigger discount. In this case it was another 15% off. What this came down to was by buying Luv's size 4 diapers 204ct, I was able to get each diaper for $.13. If anyone is able to do better, let us all know.
