My Shopping Trip: ShopRite & Target

My goal this week was to just roll the (4) $10 catalina I got last week from the Gift Card deal.  I have my eyes set on all the meat on sale next week so I wanted to be able to extend those catalinas (since they would expire today) to use next week by rolling them into other deals.  I am kind of bummed because next week would be a big meat stock up for me.  But with our move in 2 1/2 weeks, I can not load up my freezer.
