FAFO!

Yes, you have a First Amendment right.  But there are consequences for ones words and/or actions.

If an employer doesn't want your views to be associated with their brand, they have every right to severe your relationship with them.

Nobody deserves to die for their political views.  And nobody deserves people to cheer for their death.

Lots of people are learning about FAFO right now.

Don't give your hard earned money to companies that celebrate death and evil.

Frugal Friday....the September 12th Edition

  Not much frugal going on here.

*  Went to OT and PT to hopefully get my strength back eventually.  My supplement + Medicare pays for it.

*  I sold 7 items on eBay last week.  Go me!

*  I earned 3,460 Shop Kicks.  

*  I earned $2.30 on Checkout 51.

*  I earned $46.88 on Ibotta and am 6 items away from earning another $5 Bonus

*  I sold some body wash locally.  I swear people are so squirrely here.  Mostly they ask if something is available and then disappear.  If it wasn't available I would have taken down the post. lol

*  We got a storage unit and are moving things into it in prep for when we move back to the area we had our house in.  While not frugal now it will be when it comes time to move.

*  I found money! 

I found a penny at a Walmart on the 5th(no photo)and I found the above on the 10th at a different Walmart.

Found Money The Past Week.....12¢

Grand Total Found in 2025....$6.49

That's all I got.

What frugal things did you do this past week?
