So here are a few of the frugal-ish things that happened here this past week.......
* No food waste last week. Not much cooking either but hey.....
* I paid the sewage bill in full for 2022 to get a 3% discount at the bank they take payments for this at. It's better than nothing, right?
* I bought all this at my R-A on Saturday in one transaction using a $10 of wys $50 coupon.....
buy 2(limit of 2 per card)so I did the deal on 2 different cards. The shampoo was $2.99 and get one 50% off, the body wash was $2.49 and get one 50% off. Total spent in BC was $14.44(after using 2 x $1/2 Suave Qs)and I earned $8 in BC on each card so $16 BC total.
Spent $1.98 OOP after coupons and free $25 gift card uced, and earned back $12.75 back in reg. rebates and bonuses. The Almay face make-up, the clearance Colgate toothpaste and 6 Bic razors were moneymakers after Qs(no rebates though)so that is why I included them. Moneymaker items help lower the cost of the Ibotta rebate items.
* I hit a different Walmart on Thursday and bought all this for Ibotta rebates....
$37.67 paid OOP and $48.02 earned in regular rebates($27.52) and 2 Bonuses($20-the big $15 one and a $5 Weekend Warrior one) and a .50¢ Renuzit Bonus.
* I also bought 2 packages of Land O Lakes American cheese at the deli counter. Swag Bucks has a deal to get $7.00 back in points when you buy a package of each color cheese-no size restriction. I only spent $3.59 total of both packages of cheese so that's a $6.41 moneymaker on Swag Bucks. Of course only the white cheese label says Land o Lakes on it so I had to put a ticket into customer service to get the full 700 Points back. You would think they'd know by now Walmart does this with the yellow cheese label? lolz
* I got $2 in post Qs at Rite-Aid on March 1st.......
I forgot 3 Qs at home last week. oopsie!
* I went on Wednesday and got a massage at a "spa" in a nearby town. Hubs gave me a gift card to this place for Christmas.....
The masseuse was nice, the massage felt good but....* Frugal fail--When we went out to Walmart on Thursday I brought along an Applebee's gift card to use to get lunch but we both decided we'd rather hit the Chinese Buffet at the mall so instead of a free after gift card lunch we had to pay OOP. We did save in that neither of us needed/wanted dinner that night. 8-)
* Easy Spirit had a flash sale last week on clearance priced Winter/Fall shoes. I got 4 pair of shoes for next Fall/Winter for only $17.25 a pair(reg. $69-$75 per pair!)and free shipping AND used a $15 discount I have for buying shoes previously from them which meant $54.00 out the door for 4 pair of clogs that fit my big ass foot. Now I need to go cull the worn out Winter shoes in my closet....
* I found money!
Two different pennies in the same Rite-Aid in town on Monday.Sluggy
Lmao at the first pic. I laughed so hard, I forgot what the rest of the post was about...lol
ReplyDeleteYou scored lots of great deals! My Walmart never has any good clearance. I sure would like a store like your liquidation one. That's a great price for Costco items.
ReplyDeleteMy liquidation store closed because they could not get merchandise.
ReplyDeleteWas the pig clean?
ReplyDeleteIf only humour and insults could stop the power hungry man of red. Occasionally we see a good Walmart clearance, but rarely on things I need or want.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the condom joke.
