I was so busy last weekend that I never had a chance to chronicle my money saving activities. So, this week's post includes the things I did last week and this week to save money:
- I matched sales and coupons at Tops and Wegmans in order to save money on my groceries.
- I received a mailer from Target that included several Target coupons.
- I saved the juice from canned pineapple and used it to make a smoothie.
- We ate leftovers for a couple of dinners and lunches.
- I combined my errands on outings in order to save gas.
- I avoided using the oven on a hot day in order to keep the house more comfortable and avoid running the air conditioner.
- I stayed home 2 days in order to save on gas.
- I paid several bills online in order to save money on stamps.
- I opened the windows in the house in order to take advantage of some comfortable breezes on a couple days, which helped avoid running the air conditioning.
- I cashed in some Kellogg's cereal codes (bought on sale and with coupons, of course!) in order to obtain a free movie ticket voucher.
- I received a free sample and coupon of Finish Quantum dishwasher detergent in the mail.
- I found a coupon for a product I buy often next to my car in a parking lot. A love surprise scores like that! :-)
- I made a batches of homemade laundry detergent and homemade hair detangler.
- I recieved a free cosmetic-type bag filled with free samples and coupons from Always and Tampax in the mail.
I'd love to hear what you are doing to help save money. Feel free to leave me a comment!
Sounds like you had a great couple of weeks. Love that you found a coupon for an item you use in the parking lot.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Maria. I have to admit that I get a special kind of rush when I make an unexpected cool find in the parking lot! :-)
