Martin’s Deals for the Week of February 28-March 6

I’ll start by saying I actually spent $67.83 this week on groceries instead of $50. I’m finding it a bit harder to stick to my original $50 goal with a teen to feed. Also, my brother is on a new fresh fruit kick so I’m buying even more fresh produce than usual and the farmer’s markets aren’t open right now! However, I do have a $10 coupon good for my next visit from this week’s stock up the freezer sale, so I’m not as over budget as it seems. I can put the $10 toward next week’s grocery bill.

Here are the deals I saw in this week’s Martin’s ad:
