1. Because I haven’t ordered in awhile, I received a $20 coupon from Chewy. I used it and ordered $3 more to get free shipping. We are now set for wet food for awhile at a nice discount.
2. Mike and I did a salvage shop. We bought coffee at $2.99 a bag, dry beans at 50 cents a pound, flour at 50cents for five pounds, whole wheat flour at 89 cents for five pounds, tortillas at 50 cents, mayo for fifty cents and better than bouillon at $1 a jar, to name a few of the best bargains.
3. After our 20plus year old set bit the dust, we read an article rating sheets for price, quality and value. Then we bought a new set of sheets on sale and used an additional 20%off one day coupon to make the price less scary. The two strategies ended up saving us 50% off the original price.
4. I bought 2#of thin sliced top round steak at 30% off, $6 /#. That will make three meals for us with leftovers for lunch. I see fajitas, Asian beef and a Philly cheesesteak in our future.
Frugal Fail: Usually I bake our bread products. With the temperature as high as it has been, I got lazy and went to Aldi. I walked out with two loaves of bread, English muffins and bagels. My wallet took a $9.84 hit! I could have made them for about $2.00. A definite fail.
