  • Friday's Amish Market Trip (3 LARGE bags Raw Sugar): $29.97

Saturday's Giant Trip

Saturday Joe and I had a nice date night.  We stopped into the mall and got our rings checked, and picked up our free candles from Bath and Body Works.  Then we stopped across the street at Ledo's for a delicious dinner and went to Giant to do some much needed grocery shopping.  I should probably start going every week again, and then the bill wouldn't be so high, but I just can't seem to drag myself in any more than I have.  Maybe November will be better!  Here's what we ended up with at Giant...
