Last week we spent $96.86 grocery shopping.  

Total shopping comes to $358.48 for August.   There are 5 shopping days left in August.  

Rebate monies earned this month so far.....

I've earned $248.79 on Ibotta in August

I've earned 12.50 n Shopmium in August.

I've earned $6.00 on Kroger Cash Back in August(which still hasn't come through).

I've earned 0 on TaDa in August.

I've earned $19.89 on Checkout51 in August.

I've earned $29.24 on Aisle, etc. in August. (Haven't gotten my Nature Valley rebate yet from June.)

I've earned 30,358 points on Fetch from food shopping in August.

I've earned 20,667 points from food shopping on Shop Kick in August.($82.66)

I've earned 2,805 Points on My Points in August.($28.05? not sure what the conversion rate it here)

I've earned 5,700 from food shopping on Swag Bucks in August.($57.00)

That is $310.42 in rebates(not counting Shop Kick/Fetch/MyPoints/KCB/Alexa/Swag Bucks/The Insiders)on $358.48 of grocery spending so in reality it's $48.06 in food spending after the rebate apps I count. I now separate out the Food Bank donations and don't count those in the grocery spending(but I do count any rebates on those items).

My savings percentage for the last week was 54.98% and the monthly savings total for August comes in at 58.84% spent.
