Grocery list January 10-16, 2010

I've laid out this shopping list in the same order as the Aldi store that I shop at.  Hope it helps!  Remember, if you want to print it easily, e-mail it to yourself and print it from your e-mail.  Otherwise you can highlight, cut and paste it to a word type document and print it there.

I've typed in GREEN the things we think you should have left over from last week...make sure you're using what you had in the freezer before you found our blog as well!!!  Don't let that expensive cheese you bought elsewhere go to a waste because you're following our blog shopping list!  Aldi saves, but not if you're throwing good food away because you forgot about it.
