:rofl After this morning, I really feel like I deserve it :lol

I managed to successfully:

Get a FULL overflowing basket full of groceries, PLUS a JUMBO pack of pull ups plus a JUMBO pack of Pampers, Plus a big economy sized box of wipes while only spending $178 at the grocery store. AND I managed to do this with all three kid with me, in less than an hour, and I don't think any of them cried or had a meltdown the entire time! :yahoo

They all got treats for being SUPER cooperative and good for me. I let them pick out a lunchable which they LOVE and consider to be right up there with ice cream and toys because we don't do them often :lol

So, yeah, I am feeling quite accomplished this morning! :giggle :whew

I remember dreading the days of trying to take one child to the grocery store, but saving good money while having all three of them makes me feel like we had a hugely successful morning.

Oh, the joys of being a mom :D :lol

Yay!! It feels SO good to get a good deal at the grocery store, it's like the best feeling ever for me! A low grocery bill after buying substantial products is like a drug for me lol.... it's like the next time I have to do even better!!

That's awesome Brandi! Especially since i know you were trying to cut corners at the grocery store, so yay for getting out of there for $178 and without any incidents from the kiddos, yay!

That is awesome! Doesn't it feel so good when all 3 kids are good. I will have to take my kids grocery shopping next week. I'm hoping that all 3 of my kids will behave.
