There are some Frugal wins over the past week.....
* I had 2 PT sessions this week and I am done with PT now. These sessions were free to me.
* We sat down and worked out what Part D Medicare plan to choose. Since Part D rules changed for 2025 I had many more plans to chose from that covered my one expensive medicine, meaning I don't have to pay as much for my meds.
* I picked up these new plant based Reese's cup bags.
They were in the clearance bin at Kroger(I guess they weren't very popular)marked down to $1.37 and I had $1.75 rebates for them so I made money on these, $1.14 to be exact.
* I picked up this stuff at Walmart early in the week....
I am keeping the toilet bowl cleaner, the Glade air spray, the bag of cornbread mix and the cough drops. The Truvia brown sugar is for my sister in-law and the rest is for the food bank.
* I did some more shopping for the food bank..........
We are just keeping the little 3 pack of dog food in this lot.
I hit my big $30 Bonus and my $5 Midweek Moneymaker Bonus with this shopping trip which bulked up my rebating monies.
* We did no eating out last week.
* We also had no food waste last week.
* The a/c and heat were not used most days again this week and our electric bill is liking this weather. 8-)))
* Made what seems to be my last trip to the Dermatologist in MS. I am stable on my meds so she has approval to do Telehealth appointments with me. rah
I will miss the little bag of freebies she gives me. I think she feels sorry that I have to drive 7+ hours roundtrip for an appointment.
* I found money!
I found a dime inside the Walmart and a penny outside there in the parking lot.
I found a penny in the parking lot of the truck stop near the dog park on Monday.
Total Found last week..... .12¢
Grand Total Found this Year.......$9.19 & 5.30 Euros
That's all I got.
Any frugal wins in your neck of the woods? Let's hear all about them!

The plant based Reese’s cups came out right after Dave quit eating sugar. That alone has probably saved us hundreds.
ReplyDeleteKroger finally had the on sale Kleenex in stock yesterday so I bought approximately a year’s supply. The six packs were save $10 if you buy two and Ibotta had a $1 rebate.
Well Dave dodged a bullet there. lolz I haven't tried one yet to see how they stack up to the original.
DeleteI did that Kleenex deal too. There is another $1 offer on Checkout51 but you'll have to fight with them to get it because they'll see the Kroger digital Q for 1 of them on your receipt and won't give you the $1 on the other stack of boxes.
I already had to fight Amazon this week. They sent damaged cat food that was leaking - with one container about to explode. I went through the whole return process with pictures attached only to be told the item was not eligible for a return. Then had to redo the whole thing with a chat bot before they would send a replacement.
DeleteIt's so disappointing when businesses make you jump through hoops to make it right. At least things worked out, even if you had to tear your hair out. 8-)
DeleteSounds like a good week, Sluggy. What a deal on those Reese's!
