Here are a few things we did that were frugal this past week.............
* I earned a whopping .25¢ cash rebate on Ibotta.
Go. me. lolz
* Hubs picked up the Friday Freebie last Friday at Weis.
Free applesauce cups? Yes, please!
* Weis was out of the BOGOFree Butter(8 oz. packs)last week's 3 Day Deals so I had Hubs get me a rain check and when he had to go back to Weis on Saturday he thought to get me another rain check for it, giving me two rain checks.........
Gotta love a man who gets rain checks! ;-)
* I sold 4 packs of diapers this week.
$22 in my pocket selling something that cost me NADA!
* More things from Rite-Aid for "free" this past week.....
* Here is what I bought at Weis this week......
The ice cream and OJs were part of the Buy 6/Get $3 Off Deal so $15.94 for those plus I used 4 x $1.25/1 Qs for the Magnum so $10.94 OOP for those 6 items. (It's too bad I don't like that ice cream....too much chocolate, not even ice cream IMHO.) The bag of spinach was 1/2 price and I used one of my butter rain checks(see above)so $4.73 for 4 x 8 oz. packs plus another .96¢ off the butter since it was Senior discount Tuesdays( and a Weis branded product)so I paid $3.77 total for all the butter, making it less than $2 a lb.
I'll be sure to use the other rain check on Tuesdays so I get an additional 10% off those butters too. 8-)
* I got home and discovered that the cashier at Weis had rang up FIVE butters not Four so when we were out Wednesday running errands I stopped in and got my money back.........
I tired to explain that no, they didn't owe me $2.50 but less due to the Senior Discount but the CS guy couldn't wrap his head around that fact so I got the whole $2.50.
$2.50 back into my grocery budget? Works for me! lolz
* While doing a much neglected house project, cleaning out the laundry room, I found this.....
.10¢ of found money added to my wallet.
* Hubs and I hit Ollie's(Good Stuff Cheap!)on Wednesday.
Didn't get much in the way of foodstuffs.......3 Jello(Peach), Garlic(2 ways), Parsley, Ranch dressing, 2 Parmesan shakers, lemon custard for pie and then Pop-Tarts for Ex-College Boy and Mocha Frappe mix for the 2 kids. $23.11 on food and we picked up a couple books, a new non-stick skillet, a tablecloth and some doggie treats.
* Hubs and I had lunch out at Bob Evans on Wednesday after hitting Ollie's. I drank water so didn't pay $2.49-$2.69 for a drink! And I used a coupon for $4 off our meal which covered the tip amount.
* Hubs clipped Chester's nails and I cut Chester's hair this week and he'll be getting a bath soon too.
Having a puppy we were able to get him acclimated to having these things done to him while he is/was young so it's pretty easy to perform them(except that he is still a puppy and can't hold still).
Why pay money at a pet groomer when we can do these things ourselves?
Other than lunch out we didn't do anything special this week.
What frugal wins did you have lately?
