Spend money to save money...

Drove 2 hours away today to go to Sams Club...

...so we get up too early, get the kids moving in the right direction, am able to drink all of about 3/4 cup of coffee, and get on the road.

...We were able to stop at A & W for lunch, which is always nice...then we get to Grand Forks quite some time later, just to wander through Sams Club, save a few dollars on Gerber Puffs...find a few other noteworthy finds...then head out.

A stop at Old Navy to buy some pants, eat at Texas Roadhouse, then back in the direction of home again...

...2 hours and some seriously sub-par gas station coffee later, we made it home. I DONT feel like breaking down the bulk packages of food at the moment, and am avoiding the kitchen..

..I think we busted the myth today that going to Sams Club would save money on groceries. Maybe it makes for cheaper ground turkey, but the rest of the headache...not so much...
