Frugal Friday....the June 11th Edition

Staying home most of the week leads to a not so exciting frugal week but we did have a few wins........

*I did go to Rite-Aid and got some free Daylogic razors among other things  when I went to pick up my Rxs.

* While at my unscheduled Walmart stop on Tuesday I tried the Freeosk and it was actually working!

I got this baby degree deodorant for free!

* Got a dr. appointment yesterday and this happened.......

Got a steroid shot in my knee joint. ouchie!  Not really, it wasn't bad and much less than hobbling around on what is was like. lol  Hopefully this helps stave off a knee replacement for awhile. ;-)

It's frugal as we have good medical insurance so this won't cost as much as a knee surgery if it helps.

* Been setting up for the Garage Stockpile Sale on Saturday and have posted the ads online for it this morning.  I have a bit more to set up and price plus I had a backlog of bags of crap to put out once I sell some of it. lolz Wish me luck and wads of cash!8-))

* I found money!

 While cleaning stuff out of the garage we came across an ugly handmade mug our daughter made in high school art class and left here.  I found a penny inside of it!

Monday I found 4 pennies at my Rite-Aid.  1 was on the floor and the 3 others someone left on the register counter and didn't want.

Total Found This Week... .05¢
Total Found This Year...$4.15

What good frugal finds did y'all have this past week?
Have a great Friday and Weekend!

Rite-Aid Haul PORN

Now if that title didn't get you to look, nothing will! lol

Did this lot on my card........

2 x GE light bulbs on sale=$15.98
1 x Huggies diapers on sale=$8.99
2 x Speed Stick deodorant on sale=$3.98
7 x Wet n' Wild make-up BOGO50%(3 x .99¢ + 3 x .49¢ + last one was 20% off=.79¢)=$5.23
SubTotal.....$34.18

* Everything but the Speed Stick qualified for Blizzard Points, so $30.20 in BPoints spending.*

Coupons Used
1 x $3/1 Huggies diapers IPQ=$3.00
1 x BOGOF Speed Stick ManuQ=$1.99
2 x $1/1 Wet n' Wild eye product IPQ=$2.00
3 x .50¢/1 Wet n' Wild any product IPQ=$1.50
Coupon Total.....$8.49

$34.18-$8.49=$25.69 + $1.14 tax=$26.83 OOP and I used Plenti points to pay.
I earned back $22.00 in new Plenti points($10 for buying 2 GE light bulbs, $10 for spending $30 on Blizzard points items, $2.00 for buying 2 Speed Stick deos).
At this point I am "out" $4.83 points.
But I will sell the Huggies come Springs on the local FB page for either $5 or $6 which will cover any points spent down plus a bit, so this transaction becomes a moneymaker.  8-)

Then I bought this on my son's card......

2 x GE light bulbs on sale=$15.98
1 x Huggies diapers on sale=$8.99
8 x Wet n' Wild make up BOGO50%=$5.92
SubTotal.....$30.89

I had a new manager and she processed the transaction prematurely before I handed her my stack of  coupons.
sigh.

This means I spend down $9.21 in points(which is bad)but the silver lining was that a $3 Load2Card for the diapers came off(since she didn't scan my $3/1 Huggies IPQ)so I got an extra $3 off this transaction in the end. ;-)  I didn't notice this until I got home and examined my receipt.

We had to do a "post coupon" and I received back cash for all my coupons I used.

SubTotal....$30.89-Load2CardQ $3=$27.89 + $1.32 tax=$29.21 which I paid with Plenti points.

Coupons Used
1 x $3/1 Huggies IPQ=$3.00
3 x $1/1 Wet n' Wild IPQ=$3.00
5 x .50¢/1 Wet n' Wild IPQ=$2.50
Coupon Total......$8.50

$29.21 paid in points-$8.50 cash refund for coupons=$20.71  "spent".
I earned back $20 in new Plenti points(everything bought qualified for Blizzard Points and the transaction was over $30)so this transaction "cost" me .71¢.
But again, I have another pack of diapers to sell turning this into a moneymaker too.


Plenti points spent......... -$56.04
Plenti points earned....... + $42.00
Cash back for coupons..+ $8.50
Sales of diapers....+ $10-$12

I love getting paid to "buy" stuff at the drugstore.  8-)
