 I only bought this on Saturday.  This is the entirety of my Rite-Aid shopping for last week.

1 x Colgate toothbrush on sale=$4.99
1 x Acidil stomach pills 25% off=$6.74
SubTotal......$11.73

Coupons Used
1 x $2/WYSpend $10 Receipt Q=$2.00
1 x $2/1 Colgate toothbrush in-adQ=$2.00
1 x $3//1Acidil peelieQ=$3.00
Coupon Total......$7.00

$11.73-$7.00=$4.73 paid for with Bonus Cash

I earned back $3 in new BC(Acidil)and I submitted to Ibotta for $2.10 in rebates so spent $4.73 and earned back $5.10 in BC/Ibotta.

I also have a Colgate Bonus Challenge and this toothbrush put me over the lowest threshold to earn BC for that challenge.

Not very exciting but it's something. 8-P

Last Week & This Week at Rite-Aid

 I hit Rite-Aid 2 more times last week and used that Spend $60/Get $15 Bonus Cash coupon on 2 different cards/accounts.


First I bought 2 Nexxus shampoo/conditioners, 1 Nexus hair masque, 3 Vaseline lip balms, a Covergirl eye shadow palette, a CG eyebrow pencils, a CG concealer and a Baby Ruth candy bar.
This all cost me $42.05 in BC and I earned back $49.00 in new BC so a modest $6.95 moneymaker.  I also submitted to Checkout51 for .38¢ back on the candy bar, netting me $7.33 back in total on all that.

Then I bought 1 Rohto eye drops(put with other transaction items by mistake in the photo),1 Dr. Scholl's wart remover pack, 2 Pamprin pills, 2 Dollar Shave Club wipe packs, a Neutrogena facial mask, a Covergirl mascara, a CG eyebrow pencils and a CG concealer.
This all cost me $37.01 in BC and I earned back $51.00 in new BC.  I also submitted to Swagbucks for a $3 rebate on the Dr. Scholl's item and to Ibotta for a $3 rebate on the Rhoto item making this a $19.99 moneymaker.

Yesterday while I was out running errands in the town South of us I hit a different R-A and got all this....

I bought a clearance poison ivy treatment, a bag of dog treats for the puppies and 2 Dollar Shave Club items-a pack of face wipes and a 4 blade razor starter kit.

Total after my $5/2 DSC L2CQ came to $9.09 with sales tax.  The DSC items are double dipping so I got 4 x $3 in BC for those 2 items, making this a $2.91 moneymaker.  Then I submitted for a $3 Ibotta rebate for the Ivarest making this a $5.91 moneymaker. 8-)

Not a bad few transactions at Rite-Aid lately, rolling or growing my Bonus Cash.

Frugal Friday...the June 4th Edition

 A few frugal wins from this past week........

*  We went to our favorite nursery last weekend and got a flat of assorted veggies and flowers. Hubs planted everything with my supervision as my knee and back are still wonky this week.  Not a big garden but a few favorites that the flat of plants will provide.

*  We didn't eat out and mostly ate down the freezer and leftovers from the Memorial Day cook-out.

*  And contrary to belief I didn't hit ANY grocery stores.....well, until today but my frugal week runs Friday to Thursday anyway so it goes on next week's report. ;-)

*  I watched some free movies with my Amazon Prime account.

*  I've been cleaning out stuff to get ready for my stockpile sale as my old body has allowed me to.

*  I grew a couple of my Rite-Aid accounts Bonus Cash.  I found a store near the nursery that had Sally Hansen nail polish on sale for $1.49 per bottle and it counted toward the SH polish deal this week When you buy 2/Get $4 in BC back.  After sales tax it grew my BC by .85¢ per 2 bottles purchased.

*  I found money!


On my big outing last Friday I found this Quarter tucked behind the self-checkout machine I was using.


Then I stopped in at my Rite-Aid on the way home and found this nickel in front of the register counter.

Total Found This Week... .30¢
Total Found This Year....$4.10

That's it for this week.


I hope y'all had some frugal wins too!
Tell us all about them. 8-)

And have a good Weekend....
