    Good start on your stockpile. Did you get a good deal on the chicken? I buy it in bulk too, and freeze it.

    I did 6 different transactions. My total savings was $110.02! That includes Kroger Plus card, Daytona 500, and coupons. So without all that I would have paid around $175!

    Honestly, I'm not sure if it was a good deal or not... haven't really figured out meat deals yet, but it was the cheapest price I could find at the time. $1.88/lb. Is that a good price?
