Frugal Friday.....the March 11th Edition on Saturday

Friday was a very crappy day for me(don't ask!). Between wanting to cry my eyes out over the way an incompetent dr. with a horrible bedside manner treated me and wanting to lash out at said person working for the medical entity I am forced to use(not at the same time mind you)and a trip to Walmart to do Ibotta deals I was just done. Then a run in with Rite-Aid customer service over ANOTHER non-working gift cards(still).  This encounter has made my HS flare(yay me!)and I sank into a depressed state. Then money issues with my daughter have me on edge.  Then I get home and there is a jury summons waiting for me.
 Like I said, not a good day.

Then I couldn't sleep, got up at 4 am, put dogs out in the pouring rain.  Rain changed over to snow between 6-7 am.

As of this photo about an hour ago, we have 8 inches on the ground(a bit of this is ice under the snow).

When I went to put the dogs out there were about 50 birds on the ground in the snow near the trees in the distance in this photo as we have a bird feeder on one of the bare deciduous trees back there.

Most of them flew up into the trees when the dogs came out of the door so here's the brave birdies that didn't flee......

I've seen Robins for about a week in the yard too and I am thinking they are saying, WTF?!, at this point.

So here are a few of the frugal-ish things that happened here this past week.......

* Bought all this at Dollar General on clearance last Saturday.....

All this plus everything else not on clearance came to $20.17

*  I bought all this at my R-A on 3/6 on in one transaction using a $6 of wys $30 coupon...

Nothing spent OOP and earned $10 BC.

*I bought all this at my R-A on 3/8 in one transaction using a $4 off wy $20 coupon......

All this plus a Twix bar, a Butterfinger bar and a 6 pack of Irish Spring soap.

Nothing OOP.

*  I got a few items at Weis(PMITA)Markets for Ibotta rebates--Beneful dry dog food, Canine Carry Outs dog treats, an brand Creamer, Chobani creamer and a Kill Cliff energy drink.  Add in the .75¢ in Ibotta rebates from Rite-Aid(Twix and Butterfinger bars and I earned $7.10 including m $3 Midweek Moneymaker Bonus.  Spent $9.57 before tax on the dog food and earned $7.10(no free gift cards used). 

*  Frugal fail--2 heads of Romain lettuce frozen in the produce drawer of my fridge so those had to get pitched.

*   I found money!

A penny near the register counter at Rite-Aid last Saturday.

Back to Rite-Aid on March 8th.........

I found .22¢ scattered down the Easter candy aisle.

Then the same day at Weis.........

I found this penny in front of the customer service desk.

Total Found in last Week...... .24¢
Total Found This Year......$3.66

That's about all I've got for this past week.

Any frugal wins in your neck of the woods?  Let's hear all about them!

And have a good weekend and stay warm!

Frugal Friday.....the February 11th Edition

 

So here are a few of the frugal-ish things that happened here this past week.......

*   No food waste so far. ;-)  We've got lots of leftovers this week to use up or repurpose.

*  We hit Ollie's(Good Stuff Cheap)on Saturday because I had a 15% coupon and bought this food...

*  I bought these items at Weis on Wednesday that qualified for Ibotta rebates.......

*  While at Walmart on Sunday I bought 2 boxes of clearance corn muffin mix for .25¢ each....

When I got home I realized they were out of date.  That's why so cheap.  But corn mix lasts well past the sell by date so no worries. 8-)

* I bought all this stuff on a trip to Walmart on Sunday and Rite-Aid on Saturday....

Spent no OOP and earned back $27.70 back in reg. rebates and bonuses.

*  I did about 4 Rite-Aid transactions this week utilizing BC, Catalinas and coupons but don't have any photos of it all yet.  It was a very small haul and some of it was today so won't appear until next week's FF post.

*  I got $10 back in on a R-A return.  The other half $9.48 was suppose to be credited back in Bonus Cash. 

 Two days later I had to call Customer Service as it was still not back on my account.  Crossing my fingers it's back by Monday so I don't have to call them again ugh!

*   I found money!

A penny wedged beside the self-checkout machine at Walmart on Sunday.

Then  a dime under the counter at KFC.  And when I went to get in the car out in their parking lot another penny was laying there.

Then on a quick trip to Weis(PMITA)Markets I found this penny under the CS desk as I walked by..........

Then this nickel in the foyer when I returned my cart.

\

Total Found in last Week...... .18¢
Total Found This Year......$2.06

Finally broke $2 almost midway through February. rah.

That's about all I've got for this week.

Frugal Friday.....the October 15th Edition

 Taking a look around, here are the frugal wins for this past week....

*  I had gotten an Ollie's(Good Stuff Cheap!)15% off digital coupon as soon as I got home from my September trip.  It expired on Monday so Hubs and I went up to have a poke around and bought this....

We also got 12 trays of wet dog food(not pictured)for a grand total of $12.56 after discount.

*  After Ollie's we had lunch out at Applebee's, using a gift card.  Paid $15+ OOP on tip and about $7 the gift card didn't cover.  I only ate half my Oriental salad so dinner was leftovers(I finished my salad.)

*  Hubs got a flu shot at Rite-Aid on Tuesday.  With that he received a $5 off when you spend $25 shopping pass.

*  Speaking of that shopping pass I spent it on this stuff.....

2 x Pepcid 20% gold discount=$21.58

1 x Tom's of Maine toothpaste 25% sale=$5.99

SubTotal.....$27.57

Coupons Used

1 x $5 off $25 purchase flu shotQ=$5.00

2 x $2.50/1 Pepcid Q=$5.00

Coupon Total....$10.00

$27.57-$10.00=$17.57 paid with Bonus Cash

I earned back $8 in new BC for buying $20+ of Pepcid, I submitted my receipt to JandJ Caregiver Offer and have a $10 gift card on the way(snail mail)also for buying $20+ of Pepcid and I submitted for a $2/1 Coupons dotcom rebate for the toothpaste.  I submitted for 2x $1.50 Ibotta rebates on the Pepcid as well.

Not too shabby....

*  I hit up Weis on Tuesday for some provisions.  I had some coupons expiring and a few that paired with digital Weis Qs too  that also doubled........

The band-aids were a penny moneymaker after sale price doubled Qs.

The pepcid was $2.50 OOP after sale price, Qs and Ibotta rebate.

The Hall's cough drops were 50% on clearance so $1.14 a bag.  After the $1.50/1 Qs 3 bags were a $1.08 moneymaker.

The Prego was on sale $2 a jar(if you bought 3 or more).  After doubled Qs they were $2 total or .50¢ a jar.

The dog food was .79¢ per container and I had $4 total in Qs making them .29¢ each.

*  A Target coupons arrived in the mail this week.  Our store just had a remodeling so they are eager to lure you back in to spend money.

It's good until sometime in November so I'll pair this with circle offers/coupons and app deals to spend very little out of pocket.

*  I found money!

A dime and a nickel at Weis on Tuesday.  Someone left their change at the self check-out. My Rite-Aid has been dry lately.

Found Money This Week... .15¢

Found Money This Year....$18.64

*  Sissie sent me home with 2 bags of homemade cookies and a meatloaf this past trip in September.  We had the meatloaf on Thursday, my shot day when I don't feel up to doing much.  It was a godsend having that already cooked and thawed to heat up.  Wish I had gotten sisters sooner in my life! lol

That's about it from here.

What frugal wins did y'all have this past week?

Frugal Friday-the May 21st Edition

 A few things qualified for frugal this past week...............

*  I did some Rite-Aid transactions this past week but I haven't photographed any of them.  7 transactions were I spent $182.99(including tax)of Bonus Cash and earned back $155.00 in new BC so I spent down the BC by $27.99.  But this doesn't include the $8.60 in Ibotta rebates earned at R-A last week, and the 296 Fetch points earned as well.

*  I found money!

The only places I went this past week was 1 trip to Weis(PMITA)Markets and a few trips to my Rite-Aid.  I didn't write down what penny or pennies were found on which date but these were all found at Rite-Aid.

Found Change This Week... .06¢
Found Change This Year...$3.78

*  I found this item on sale at Weis(PMITA)Markets this past week...

Johnsonville Sausage Strips-looks like bacon and it IS still pork.

They were on sale for $4.99 per package and had $2 off Weis peelie Qs on them so $2.99.
Plus there was a tearpad of Qs next to the meat case for $1/1 from the manufacturer so I paid $1.99 each for 3 packages.  Has anyone tried these yet?  Let me know what you think.....

I also found BOGO Perdue thighs with $2 Weis peelies on them and Coho Salmon for $5.99 lb.  Nice!

*  Hubs and I worked the election polls.  I tell ya it sure is a loooong day and we get paid pennies but I feel like I perform an important job(my civic duty as it were)doing this.....even though the country's all going to hell in a handbasket no matter what, because well, "bread and circuses" as the Romans said.

Me, cynical?!?  Nah.  ;-)

That's about it from here this week.  Didn't go anywhere otherwise and I'm still trying to rest my knee after the Bataan Death March of Shopping. lolz

Tell me about your exciting Frugal Week!  I bet it' better than mine.

Shopping Last Weekend for Ibotta Rebates

 Well while I did no Ibotta shopping on vacation the day I came home I got a good Weekend Warrior rebate($5 for 18) and an extra Party Time rebate($5 for 5)that stacked.  Woohoo!  So out the door when my resolve to lay off Ibotta for May. lolz

All this earned me back $13.29 + $10 in bonuses so $23.29 on Ibotta.

I stopped at a Food Lion on my way home(we don't have those here)looking for 4 different Sweet Earth plant based meat offers that were free after rebates but they didn't have them so I snagged 2 bags of  Cheez-it popcorn, a free Rowdy energy drink, a small bag of Duke's mayo and 2 boxes of Dewey's lemon cookies.  Original price was $16.46, rebates for those 4 offers came to $8.73.

I stopped at a Rite-Aid also on the way home for the 4 Compeed items(BOGOF and working on a foot card Spend $30/Get $15 BC deal) and the Got2B hair styler on clearance for $1.62.  Total paid was $21.60 paid with Bonus Cash so no OOP.  Earned back $13.50 on Ibotta for those.  Also hit my R-A on Sunday for the 3 Polident pro-partial items(BOGO50%), paid Zero OOP and got back $4.50 on Ibotta.

Hubs and I hit Target on Saturday to spend down those free Target gift cards I have and to do the Beauty Spend $20/Get $5 Gift Card deal twice(plus pick up those gummy bears that were almost free after rebate and clearance price(and a half gallon of A2 milk(which satisfied 2 different rebates).  I got back $13.45 in Ibotta rebates and spent some gift cards.

Then on Sunday after hitting my R-A for the oral care items I went to Weis(PMITA)Markets and picked up the flat bread on the left side which was a freebie after Ibotta rebate of $3.69.

Total spent......$20.15
Total rebates...$23.29(not counting any Bonus Cash and Target gift cards these purchases partially earned me.

Not bad overall.
And I have not done any Ibotta shopping this week(my bonus is only $1 for 18 offers!! so not worth it)as I am still nursing my injured knee.  I may do the Weekend Warrior deals if the bonus is better and I can ambulate better too. ;-)

I also submitted the candy bar purchases to SwagBucks and Checkout51 and got back $4.50 total there and $5.50 on Ibotta(for the Renuzits and Revlon plus a .50¢ Renuzit Bonus) so after all rebates/BC this was a .57¢ moneymaker. 8-)

*  I had a $5 Midweek Moneymaker Bonus on Ibotta on 15 rebates.  Between 2 rebates done at Rite-Aid (6 Renuzits, Revlon eye item and a .50¢ Renuzit Bonus=$5.50)and 13 rebates done at Weis(PMITA)Markets plus a Kozy Shack .50¢ Bonus($20.99)I got the $5 Bonus so $31.49 total cash back in rebates.  I spent $40.25 OOP and earned back $2 in Bonus Cash too(Renuzits)so total OOP after BC and rebates was $6.76.  Nice. 8-)

*  I found money!

Last Friday I went to Weis to get some Fantastic Friday Deals(Salmon for $4.99 lb!!)and snagged this penny by the self-checkout machine.

Last Saturday was a honey hole of change at Rite-Aid!  I found a dime by the wipe dispenser, then 2 pennies tucked under the candy rack by the register and then a third penny back by the pharmacy.

On Monday, again at Rite-Aid I found a shiny new penny in front of the register counter on the floor.

On Wednesday I took a trip to Weis(PMITA)Markets and found 11 cents under my favorite self-checkout machine.

Total Change This Week.... .26¢

Total Change This Year....$2.40

That's about it for this week other than no Eating Out/Take-Out and no other spending besides food and HBA.

$13.45-$11.00=$2.45 +.32¢ tax=$2.77 paid with Bonus Cash.
I earned back $7 in new BC($3 wyspend $10 Colgate, $4 wyb2 Sally Hansen).

I had to buy stuff to absorb the overage using those Colgate Qs caused me to have so buying something that gave back BC(the Sally Hansen)was a no-brainer.  Then I found a clearance Maybelline item in the clearance bin and I had a $2Q so more overage on that item to bring my supposed OOP even lower(no OOP really because I just rolled Bonus Cash here).

A nice little moneymaker.
Plus I was able to submit for $2 more in rebates since the Neutrogena Wipes(the second set I bought last week)came back on my account.  Since I had already finished the Dublin Bonus on Ibotta I didn't count this $2 in rebates below. ;-)

So the Dublin Cash Bonus ended Sunday on Ibotta.   I had to do 40 rebates to earn a $10 Bonus.
Here are the rebates I did/what I earned back/what the item cost.(I didn't figure in the sales tax as it would be more work and a minimal amount as food, medicines and some toiletries are not taxed in my state.  It would add less than $1 to my costs.)

Tuesday's Shopping....A Quick Post

 I went back to Rite-Aid on Tuesday.  I saw that the 2 toothpastes I bought on Monday were part of a "Spend $10/Get $3 BC" Deal so I got another toothpaste......

1 x Colgate toothpaste on sale=$3.50

2 x R/S candy eggs on sale=$1.00

SubTotal....$4.50

I used a $3/1 In-Ad Colgate Q and a .75¢/1 Colgate IPQ(from their website)so $3.75 off making my total .75¢ paid for with Bonus Cash.

I earned the $3 in new BC for spending $10+ on Colgate.

Then I went to Weis(PMITA)Markets to pick up a few things and spend that $10 prepaid debit card that I couldn't use at Walmart on Monday.  It expires the end of March so I found a few items to use it on that also had Ibotta rebates......

2 x Breakstone cottage cheese=$4.98

1 x Ken's vinaigrette dressing=$2.69

1 x Perfect protein bar on sale=$2.00

1 x Old Spice spray deodorant=$5.99

SubTotal......$15.66

I used a $1/1 Ken's ManuQ and the $10 debit card so $15.66-$11.00=$4.66 + .36¢ tax=$5.02 OOP.

I earned back $8 in Ibotta rebates(2 x .50¢ Breakstone, .75¢ Ken's, $2.25 Perfect bar, 2 x $2 Old Spice spray deodorant-2 separate rebates qualified on that 1 item).

I now only have 1 more rebate to hit that $10 Dublin Bonus. 8-)

$5.02 spent, $8 earned back.

Of course I bought more than these 5 items at Weis but I'm only counting these here.  The other stuff will show up on my Monday grocery total post where I track all the grocery spending. ;-)

Ibotta Again!

 I got a $5 wybuy 10 items Ibotta Bonus this weekend.  I didn't relish the idea of going far from home(Walmart)so I sat down with the new Weis(PMITA)Markets ad to see if between there and Rite-Aid I could come up with 10 items with rebates that could get me to the $5 Bonus that would give me a low OOP and were also things we could use or needed.
I also had a $10 free prepaid debit card(from a Neutrogena Deal last year)to use that is expiring at the end of March.

Here is what I came up with......

The Playtex tampons were bought at Rite-Aid.  On sale for BOGO50% so $8.98.  I used a $3/2 L2CQ so total was $5.98 paid for with Bonus Cash.  This earned me $2 back in new BC and $5.10 in Ibotta rebates(2 x $2.50 Playtex, .10¢ any feminine product).  Now I needed 8 more rebates.
(I should have gone to R-A before as I didn't realize I had an any item rebate on the tampons, so I ended up getting 9 more rebate items at Weis. duh)

2 x Scotties triple soft boxes were $2.50.
1 x Breakstone cottage cheese was part of a Buy 6/Get $3 more off Deal=$1.99
1 x Philly cheesecake dessert was also part of $3 Deal=$3.00
1 x Musselman's apple sauce part of $3 Deal=$2.79
2 x King Arthur flour part of $3 Deal=$4.98 both
1 x Truvia sweetener part of $3 Deal=$3.49
2 x Bigelow tea bags(had to get 2 for deal price)=$4.94
1 x Quaker oatmeal=$2.50
1 x Quaker oatmeal packets=$2.50

SubTotal.....$28.69

I used 2 x .65¢/1 Scotties IPQs which each doubled to $1.30/1=$2.60
$28.69-$2.60=$26.09.
I used the $10 debit card so my OOP at Weis for these items was $16.09

I earned back $9.75 in regular rebates and hit the 10 items so got the $5 Bonus plus a .50¢ Bonus for buying Scotties and Bigelow together so $15.25 back at Weis + $5.10 back at R-A=$20.35 in rebates.

$16.09 spent OOP, $20.35 total back in rebates AND $2 back in BC at R-A for the Playtex purchase turning this into a $6.26 moneymaker. 8-)))

Other than the tampons(which I'll pass along to someone who can use them)everything is useful to us and/or something we needed now.

Frugal Friday.....The March 12th Edition

 Here are the few things that happened around here this past week that are considered frugal.......

*  My shoe order arrived!

2 weeks ago now I ordered 4 pair of ugly shoes to wear in the house that were clearanced at 75% off from Easy Spirit.
I am actually very pleased with what they look like!  The online photo(at least how it showed on my computer)showed them as peach w/grey ferns/palm fronds but IRL they are green and peach, not grey.  So they aren't as butt ugly as I thought they'd be which is a bonus.  The best part was the low price of $14.75 per pair for shoes with support for my feet. 8-)

*  I got off of the CVS Extra Care Bucks hamster wheel this week.

The case of water I brought home was free and these wipes only cost me $2.07 OOP after sale/Q/ECBs and I earned no new ECBS back.  I gave CVS a good try for most of 2020 but it's just not as good as Rite-Aid for me(and not as close by to where I live which is a factor in the Winter here)so I am done with them.

*  We hit the discount outlet on Wednesday.  I spent a whole $19.45--on 2 large bags of Collard Greens(.79¢ each), a box of tea($1.99), a small port wine cheese ball($1.29), 1 large box of Krusteaz cornbread mix(.89¢), a quart of macaroni salad($179), 1.09 lb. of fresh green beans(.59¢ lb.), 2.59 lb. yellow squash(.39¢ lb.), 1.82 lb. bananas(.29¢ lb.), a bag of granola(.79¢).  Almost $9.00 of my OOP was spent on this though.....

6 x12 pack bags of Pirate's Booty.  I know it's branded for Halloween but it's still in date for freshness.

I did a deal at Rite-Aid earlier this year because it was free.  I'd never tried this snack before then and man, oh man!  I love it!!!  It's sort of a cross between Cheetos and popcorn(but not as salty as Cheetos which I can't stand).  A 6 oz. bag of this will run you $5.99 at Weis(PMITA)Markets.  These were 6 oz. bags total for $1.49 each.  Sluggy for the win! lolz

*  We also picked up two freebies at the discount outlet while there.....

2 bottle of Triple Sec Syrup(sorry for the blurry photo).  Do I hear Margaritas calling my name this Summer?;-)

And 2 large bags of corn tortilla chips.  We'll give one bag to Ex-College Boy tonight when he comes over.

Tip-even if tortilla chips or shells are stale, you can pop them in the oven to dry them out and make them crispy again.

*  I hit Walmart and Weis this past weekend and finished two Ibotta Bonuses as well as all the regular Ibotta rebates....

Between the two stores I spent $53.68(that total was with using a $25 free gift card)on Ibotta/Shop Kick items, earned $62.51 back in rebates so I got paid $8.83 to bring all that home. 8-)

*  I returned to Weis the next day on Sunday to get this.....

$5 because the Catalina didn't print on Saturday.  I had to show the Deal from the ad on my phone(and I bought my receipt and all 6 of the items that qualified for the deal with me).  Abe went into my post coupon/store refund envie to be added back into the food budget at the end of 2021.

*  I found money!

Picking up an Rx at Rite-Aid on Saturday I found this penny.

While self-checking out at Walmart I saw these 2 pennies in the change return of the machine I was using.

I noticed a coin under the machine next to me so I waited until the person using it was finished and left and scoop up the dime on the left.  As I turned around to leave I spied another dime about 2 feet out into the open area of the self-checkouts so that FDR went home with me too. ;-)

When I went back to Weis on Sunday to get my $5 refund for the Catalina that didn't print I spied this penny under one of the self-checkout machines.

Total Found This Week.... .24¢

Total Found This Year....$1.52

That's about all I got this week.
