Here are our frugal wins for this past week......
* I love going to Kroger here as they usually have marked down salad kits. These were between $1 something and just north of $2 each. Remember that chopped salads are mostly cabbage not lettuce so they last a lot longer than lettuce ones. I don't think I've ever bought a reduced price salad kit that went bad before we ate it.
* We went out to lunch on Thursday to Texas.
They have the best sliced Brisket and the prices aren't bad either.
* While in Texas we hit Kroger and I scored some marked down yogurt.........
I got 10 marked down yogurts please had a digital coupon for $2 off 10 cups. Nice.
* I hit my $5 Weekend Warrior and $5 Midweek Bonuses on Ibotta and I used a free $20 gift card at Walmart to purchase items we needed to get to my Bonus target there.
* I put my Pfaltzgraf Christmas Dishes up on Facebook to sell locally.
My son is going to take the fine china that my grandmother bought me after I was born. 8-)
* I found a great deal at Aldi last Friday.
So I bought 3 bags and we've been eating a LOT of green beans this past week. lol
* I went to Kroger on Saturday for their $6 Candle Sale.
* We also had no food waste last week. We ate everything or put it into the freezer.
* It was time again to buy 2 Rock Star energy drinks.
* Entertainment last week was free tv or playing with the dogs.
* Just a tale of caution, especially at this time of year. If you use credit cards be sure to check your charges if not daily, at least weekly. I do this and I am glad I do because I found a charge on one card for a Bulking Solution supposedly bought online that I did not purchase and on another card there was a charge for puppy socializing classes x 3 and another charge by the same person for a Feline Cafe Lounge experience, both were in Maryland. A call to the credit card company and those charges were reported as fraudulent and the account was shut down and a new card is in route. Scammers try to use your card at the Holidays, thinking since you are buying lots of stuff/gifts, hoping you won't notice and they will get away with their fraud.
* I found money!
I found a single penny last Friday at Aldi.
Total Found last week..... .01¢
Grand Total Found this Year.......$9.55 & 5.30 Euros I may hit $10 found before the year is out at this point if I can find .45¢ before the month is out.
That's all I got.
Any frugal wins in your neck of the woods? Let's hear all about them!

Great advice, similar happened to me. They do small sneaky amounts hoping to blend in with all your other small spends. Glad to see your still here, Susan
ReplyDeleteReduced chopped salads are my favorite. We have only bought one we did not like the add-ins. Marked down is the only way we buy these.
ReplyDeleteI found another $.35 while walking Daryl this week. Same street but in front of a different street. I tried looking yesterday but he had me jogging or power walking most of the time. He was a bundle of energy after missing walks due to the cold.
