Here are our frugal wins for this past week....
* I love finding marked down foods at Kroger(this really doesn't happen at Walmart). Got some Burger meat on clearance, some veggies on sale, bagged salad on clearance, more strawberries for $1.88 lb., Greek yogurt on sale, and got 4lb. of Catfish fillets for $9.95 at a different store.
* We used up some pantry items as well.
* We also had no food waste last week. We cooked at home and then ate some leftovers this past week. There was no eating out.
* While grocery shopping I picked up some items for the food bank we donate to. It wasn't much cash out of hand but helps folks struggling here out and makes us feel good.
Spending money on groceries not for us isn't frugal but it certainly is frugal for others. Especially if it's toiletries or paper goods which they can't use EBT/Snap benefits on.
* It's been warm here so the heat has been off during the day. Not "hang your laundry out to dry warm" but warm enough not to need the furnace days.
* Entertainment last week was free tv, YouTube watching, doing genealogy or reading.
* I found money!
Between Walmart and Kroger I found .12¢ total-a dime and 2 pennies last week.
Found Money This Week.... .12¢
Grand Total Found this Year....... .69¢
That's all I got.
Any frugal wins in your neck of the woods? Let's hear all about them!
