Here what frugal stuff happened around here this week around Chez Sluggy.........
* I almost forgot about submitting my Allegra purchases from April at Rite-Aid for an offer from the makers or Allegra and other allergy OTC meds..........
Receipts are now submitted and in 4-6 weeks I should have a $20 Visa prepaid card. go me! lol
I already earned a $15 cash rebate for buying these same items on Saving Star. I LOVES me a good double dip! lolz
* Hubs and I hit Ollie's(Good Stuff Cheap!)on Monday to use one of those 15% your entire order coupons I had. Here are the food items I bought.........
Oatmeal packets, Cherrios, Peanut Butter(chunky)and Pretzel Crackers. Every time I buy a bag of these pretzel crisps they disappear into Ex-CB's room and I never get any. This bag is safely hidden in my walk-in closet so he can't find/eat them all. Ssshhh, don't tell him............. '-)
* I found money(and boy, did I!)
At Ollie's this dirt old dime was found at the register counter. When I used my Lysol wipe to pick it up I thought it was a penny(plus it's so dark in that store). I was pleasantly surprised to see it was a dime when I got home and unwrapped it!.
Then as I wheeled my cart toward the door and passed a red hand truck used by the employees to move heavy shit, I spied another coin and told, no ORDERED! Hubs to pick it up for me as my arms were too short to get it without moving a bunch of stuff in front of the hand truck.
Again, due to lack of lighting I thought it was a penny but it turned out to be Tom Jefferson's face smiling up at us. 8-)
Then on Wednesday(no Wellness Wednesday *sad face* though)I went to pick up an Rx and found this dime back by the pharmacy.......
Then I saw this penny under a freestanding candy rack up by the registers..........

When I went to pick up the quarter with a wipe this also landed in my hand..........
It's a religious medal(probably Catholic)of Joseph and baby Jesus. I cleaned it off, tucked it into an envelope and will return it to the store. I hope someone is missing it and they get it back.

* After my medical appointment on Thursday in Hershey Hubs and I hit this place..........
Try saying "Sharp Shopper" 10 times fast.............it can't be done! loz
Anyway this was "sort of" on the way home down in one of the many pockets of 'Amish country' here in PA.
This regional chain isn't Amish owned(but it's not open on Sundays like all other Amish businesses n the area). I love me some discount grocery outlets!!! I got some great deals I'll tell y'all about another time as I am getting this posted so late in the day.
And if anyone wanted to send me a Sharp Shopper gift card I would NEVER turn that down! lol
That's about it for this week.....
Try to keep on keepin' on with your frugal ways and tell us all about your frugal wins for this past week!
