Here are our frugal wins for this past week....
* I love finding marked down foods at Kroger(this really doesn't happen at Walmart). I found 2 bag of fresh veggies with stickers, an individual salad, a piece of cod marked down as well as a bag of protein cereal AND both were part of the mega sale too, plus a container of tuna salad.
* We used up some pantry items as well.
* I sold a length of fabric this past week finally on eBay. Basically after fees I may have broke even. At least it's one thing out of the house. I'll probably donate the rest and take the tax write-off. That will be mush easier and quicker to accomplish. ;-)
* We also had no food waste last 2 weeks. We cooked at home and then ate some leftovers this past week. There was no eating out.
* Even with our record cold temps here lately our electric bill wasn't much higher. I'll take that as a win! My brother in VA got 12 inches of snow which is very rare for that area and they are snowed in.
* Entertainment last week was free tv, YouTube watching, doing genealogy or reading.
I found a penny in the parking lot of Kroger right behind our car 2 Friday's ago. Since then it's been a big old dry spell.

ReplyDeleteWhat a productive week you’ve had! Scoring marked down fresh veggies and other groceries is such a win, especially when you can save on good quality food. It’s impressive that you managed to use up pantry items and avoid food waste—great job on the home cooking! Selling fabric on eBay is a nice touch, and donating the rest sounds like a smart plan. Plus, keeping your electric bill low during the cold weather is definitely something to celebrate! Finding money is the cherry on top!
