1 box of store brand Triscuits – price: $1.99
1 bag of toasted Wheat Thins – $2.50
An 8-pack of Gatorade – price: $5.00
1 quart of half & half – price: $2.29
2.05 lbs of broccoli – price: $3.05
1 package of cherub tomatoes – price: $3.99
2 bags of ice (not pictured) – $1.49 each, total price: $2.98
4 tubs of Sabra Hummus – on sale for $4.49 each, used four free product coupons that were sent to me by the company for my party. Total cost: Free – and actually, each coupon automatically took off $4.99, so I ended up receiving overage. I’ve noticed that a lot of free product coupons are coded to take the full value of the product off irregardless of sale prices.

I also used two bottle return slips to take off .30 cents. I could have kept my total lower, but I’ve been feeling under the weather and really wanted to get some Gatorade.

The party was a lot of fun – here’s a picture of the buffet:

The zucchini and carrots came fresh from my aunt’s garden! We had a great time – I’ll have a party recap to share with you soon, along with a special giveaway.
