You can make several easy to make side dishes using potatoes. See the recipes below!
Potato Salad
6 medium potatoes (2 lbs)
1 1/2 cups mayonnaise
1 tablespoon white or cider vinegar
1 tablespoon yellow mustard
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 medium celery stalks (1 cup)
1 medium onion chopped (1/2 cup)
4 hard cooked eggs chopped (see below for cooking instructions)
paprika
Peel and cut potatoes into cubes, and place in 3-quart saucepan add enough water to just cover potatoes. Cover and heat to boiling; reduce heat to low. Cook covered 25 minutes or until potatoes are tender (check after 20 min.); drain. Let stand to cool.
While the potatoes cook I put the eggs in a saucepan and cover with water an inch above the eggs. Heat to boiling and then remove from heat. Cover and let stand 18 minutes and then immediately cool briefly in cold water to prevent further cooking. If shell is hard to peel, hold egg under cold water while peeling.
Mix mayonnaise, vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper in large bowl. Add potatoes, celery and onion and toss to mix. Stir in eggs. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours to blend flavors and chill. Sprinkle with paprika before serving.

Walgreen's Shopping Trip
Walgreen's Shopping total spent: $3.52
Using the Register Rewards you can get great deals at Walgreen's. I did have to do two transactions to get these great deals. I also started with $13.50 of register rewards from the previous week.
Transaction #1: subtotal $.99 tax $1.46 = $2.45
2 Listerine (5oo ml): Sale price $4.50 ea. (Walmart $3.92) - MC $1.50 - RR $6.00
Final Price: $1.50 + earned $4.50 register rewards
Right Guard: sale price $2.99 - MC $1.00
Final Price: $1.99 + earned $2.00 register rewards
2 pkg. Cotton Squares 250 ct: $5.00 -RR $5.00- RR $2.50
Final Price: Over $2.50
Transaction # 2: subtotal $.38 tax $.69 = $1.07
2 pkg Huggie Wipes 80 ct: $2.50 ea. -MC $.75 - RR $4.50 (earned in transaction 1)
Final Price: Over $.25
2 pkg Walgreen Wipes 80 ct: $1.245 ea - RR $2.00 (earned in transaction 1)
Final Price: $.49
M&M's (my boys ate them in the car.) $.89-MC $.75** Final Price: $.14
The $.75 coupon was for Huggie baby wipes, but I cannot stack my MC coupons and RR on one item. I was planning on saving my Huggies coupon for another time (it expired in July,) but my boys were good shoppers and were asking for a treat. I applied it here to the M&M's since I would have not used the coupon at all if it weren't for my boys-but they were worth a $.14 treat. I hope that makes sense.
If you shopped Walgreen's this week tell me about it-maybe I can or someone else can go out and get the same great deal!

Costco Price Points
I have updated and added items to the Costco price list - Check it out by clicking on Costco on the menu bar.
Since keeping track of Costco prices I have found they raise prices on some of their items when a coupon comes out. Most stores do a similar strategy, raise the price of an item and put it on sale for the item to look like a better deal.
In March Costco raised the price of the Arrowhead water a dollar and the Kirkland brand vitamins were $18.99- both items had a coupon in March. This visit the water was back to the $4.39 price and the vitamins were $15.99. There was a coupon for diapers and wipes this month, and Costco has increased the price of diapers in March. I am watching the price to see if they will reduce the price again and will post if I see the price change.
My strategy for shopping Costco is to shop for staples (flour, sugar, rice, cheese, bread, etc..) These items seem to always be at a good price. When I get a coupon book in the mail, I have started writing the price point in which I would pay for the item. For example Kraft Mac & Cheese had a coupon last month. My price point for the 15 count box was $7.50. (Grocery stores and Wal-mart often put it on sale for $.50 a box.) The Mac & Cheese before the coupon was $9.79 ($.65 a box) after the coupon it was $7.79- my target price was $7.50 so I passed. By writing in the coupon book the price point I was willing to pay, I didn't fall into the trap of buying things because there was a coupon for it.
