Frugal Friday Shopping Trip:
I used that instant $5 coupon at Giant Eagle, 10 dog coupons and 1 coupon for Angel Soft toilet paper I still had, bought the coffee on sale $4.99 for a big canister of Maxwell House.. my total after coupons was $3.49 Wahoo!!
Krogers had that sale today only on the Kelloggs cereals... I resisted the temptation to buy alot and only bought one family size box of frosted flakes, cost a few pennies over $2 for the box. We aren't big cereal eaters here but I occassionally will eat it for something fast or if I'm craving sweet... in fact I had a bowl of cereal for dinner.
I have homemade veggie soup thawing out tonight for meals tommorow and am soaking beans to make bean soup on Sunday. Money is going to be extremely tight till I get my paycheck on Tues. or Wed. through the mail so we're making due with what we have on hand till then. I spent $38 at Krogers that included $7.60 for the generic of splenda and 6 packs of Koolaid mix... I had some still at home on the packets but had ran out of sugar. We figured it out, we're spending around $4 a week on Koolaid instead of $12-$15 a week on soda. It would be way cheaper if we were using regular sugar but... we can't because of me being diabetic, I cheat where I can but sure don't need to be packing in sugar carbs in a drink.
What have you done frugal today?
