Oh what a day!

I got up early this morning so Cody and I could hit the fabulous sale at Albertsons. I ended up being there for TWO hours. Apparently, even at 8:30 in the morning, they still didn't have signs hung, correct prices in the computer, or the truck full of goodies unloaded. I had to wait around a little while for all the kinks to be worked out. IT WAS SO WORTH IT. Here is a picture preview of all the items I picked up. My mom thought it would be nice if I outlined how I did this, so here goes. (go to the end to see my awesome savings)
