I bought enough produce to completely fill my refrigerator, and then some. I still have 20 oranges that I am storing in a cool place that would not fit in my fridge. I also decided not to compare against my whole receipt. I did buy other things like tortillas, potatoes, eggs, bread, and a snow shovel and winter beanies that they were on clearance. I thought it better to just focus on the produce so you can see that the savings a little easier.
Under the Regular Price or Sale Price column, I listed the price per pound or per each along with the price I would have paid for the amount I bought. Under the Price Matched Price, I listed the sale price I matched along with the total amount for the quantity I bought.
The oranges are a little tricky. Walmart sells oranges per each, while most other stores sell them per pound. A store advertised oranges at $0.10 lb and I price matched that ad. Walmart has to enter them by the quantity, so it came out to $0.05 each orange, and I bought 30 of them.
Here's what I came home with:

I spent under $20 for a fridge full of produce. Taking advantage of sale prices like these gives me more flexibility when I make a trip to Costco.
That's awesome. I want save that much! Good job.
