Frugal Friday...the October 27th Edition on Saturday

There are very few(if any)Frugal wins this past week so here goes....

* Went to my old NP at the shit show clinic to get a wound check since the Pediatrician PCP refused to treat me. The NP is a wonderful human being and we love her and she did me a big favor by checking my incision(it's fine btw)so I didn't have to spring that on the new PCP I was setting up with.

* Went to a new PCP and this one, not being a Pediatrician by practice(and an A$$hole in personality)will be a much better fit.

* While I'm complaining about stuff, my youngest child is the only one how checks in on me by phone every week. My daughter who lives here can't be bothered to call or come over on the weekend and my estranged son never even responded to Hubs text letting him know I was having surgery. Thank goodness I married a great man who has hardly complained about helping me out since we flew to Ohio. He's my rock! 8-)

* I went to PT 3 x this past week. Man, does that wear me out and I usually need a nap in the afternoon. Good thing I've hit all my deductibles and co-pays so I'm not shelling out cash for this service.

* Grocery shopping this past week--

Last Sunday Hubs did the shopping with the list I gave him.

All the above would have cost $49.49 OOP except I still had travel stipend money for the surgery trip that was used. I earned back $20.20 on Ibotta and another $7.24 for a free meatball offer. I earned 600 Shopkicks for the ice cream, $3.24 on the ice cream again on Checkout 51 and 308 Swag Bucks on various items.

He also bought a head of Romaine and a clamshell of Strawberries which came to $1.97.(The strawberries were bought with the stuff above and were paid for using the stipend cash, the lettuce was paid for OOP.)

* We got some takeout this week because I ain't in any shape to cook still. I had a hankering for Chinese so I got garlic Green Beans and Sesame Chicken. Those two containers lasted me 3 big meals. We also used a BK gift card and go a $3 Whopper on Whopper Wednesday.

* I found money!

Nope, skunked again, but then again I was in no condition to pick up change and I only went to PT and the doctor.

Total Found in last Week.... .00¢
Total Found this Year.......$3.27

That's all I got. Gee, there was no frugal wins really(other than using up some lingering gift cards).

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

Blogging will be taking a backseat to getting me healed so there might not be many posts here for the foreseeable future.8-)

Frugal Friday.....the October 20th Edition

There are very few(if any)Frugal wins this past week so here goes....

* I got a free new toy in Ohio!

I am sure I will come to hate this thing as the weeks go by.......

* Grocery shopping this past week--

I didn't buy anything. Go me! Groceries will happen going forward though.

* We got some takeout this week because I ain't in any shape to cook. Subway on Monday(lasted me 2 days)and Zaxby Zalad on Thursday. I had .18¢ on a Subway gift card and paid for the whole Zalad with a Zaxby's gift card. Big spender here!

* Got home to find my new bras arrived. Now I have four whole bras that fit(though it's hard to get them on right now with what my body is going through). "The girls" are in no mood to be hoisted and shoved. ;-)

* I found money!

Nope, skunked again, but then again I was in no condition to pick up change coming home from Ohio and once here I only went to PT and the doctor.
Let me just say that it is horrible that my PT place is right between a Chinese restaurant and a pizza joint in a strip mall......!
