Deals to note..

O-cel-o sponges (1/2 price sale) I would have gotten all the singles (since it would have been cheaper) but, they did not have many in stock and I wanted to leave some on the shelf for others to be able to take advantage of the sale.
4 3pks - $7.56 used 2 $1/2Qs - $5.58 (about 46¢ per sponge)
8 single packs - $7.12 - used 4 $1/2Qs - $3.12 (about 39¢ per sponge)

4 single rolls of Marcel TP - used free item Qs - free

reduced produce - $5.89 for 4 packages. It included about a dozen tomatoes, a dozen apples, a peach and an avacado. The tomatoes alone would have likely cost atleast twice that full price.
