Frugal wins here at Chez Sluggy this past week came and went. Here are the highlights.......
* The Freeosk machine in Walmart was actually dispensing samples this week.....
* I found money!
Found this lot around the store at my Rite-Aid and in the foyer there on Monday.
This penny was found on Tuesday at CVS by the register.
Back to R-A for Rx refills on Wednesday and found this lot of coins.
The 3 coins to the left were found again at my R-A on Thursday. The coin on the right I don't remember where.....Weis maybe or Walmart? It's been a long week and I can't recall....
Total Found This Week... .32¢
Total Found This Year...$12.78
* I actually went to CVS(if you saw the penny I got there above)on Tuesday. I had a freebie digital Q for acetaminophen or ibuprofen but their truck hadn't come in yet this week.
But I did use a $5 off any ice cream digital Q and brought home a pint of my favorite Ben and Jerry's flavor(Cherry Garcia). It only cost me $1.29. I'd pay that all day long for this flavor. 8-)))
And speaking of CVS this ECB printed out when I bought the ice cream......
Seriously? What the hell am I suppose to do with that?!?! lolz
* I've been trying to keep ahead of the cukes and zukes from the garden.
Last Weekend I made pickles. I need to add more cukes to this jar once we eat these.
And the zukes have made appearances at the table(so far)as tempura spears, in a tomato based dish with lemon pepper chicken and in this......
I had leftover carrot shreds to use up so I shredded 1/3 of a zuke too and threw that into the mixture and voila!....carrot cake. So moist and full of fruits and veg and nuts it doesn't need frosting.
I see more tempura spears, grilled zuke, a zuke gratin casserole and stuffed zuke waiting in the wings to make their appearances. ;-)
That's about it for the highlights besides some Rite-Aid pillaging(4 cans of Friskies for a $6+ moneymaker? Yes please!).
How was your week? Any good deals or frugal wins??
Hope y'all have a good weekend!

I still have the check from Walgreens for $0.21 that I never remember to take to them when I pick up meds. It has probably expired. They spent more on postage than the check.
ReplyDeleteI received a boring box full of good stuff and my cat is still enjoying the box. It was a tight squeeze but she wedges her chunky self in there. Sluggy has pictures that can be shared if she wants to make Zima famous.

ReplyDeleteI have a freebie cucumber that needs to be made into pickles. Thanks for reminder.
ReplyDeletePickles are a sensible way to make use of excessive vegetables; good for you !
