Raising Blessings

Walmart and Walgreens Total $15.47

Walgreens – Spent $4.95 and received $5 in Register Rewards:

• 2 bags of 75 plastic straws – 50 cents each with in ad coupon
• 2 Colgate 360 ° Toothbrushes (These are my favourite toothbrushes to buy they really do clean teeth better than any other that I’ve used) $3.49 buy one get one free – 2 75 cents off coupons. making them 99 cents each
• 2 tubes of colgate toothpaste. $3.49 buy one get one free. I used two $1.00 off coupons making them 74 cents each.
• Bag of gummy bears 39 cents (you can’t have more items than coupons at Walgreens so this was my “filler” item)
• Schick 3 razor system $7.99 minus $5 off coupon making it $2.99. But I got $5 in Register Rewards (can be used like cash) so if you count that I made $2!   (You can make money off these kinds of razors often at Walgreens. I can’t believe people actually pay close to $10 for them. It’s not like they add natural testosterone like the commercials seem to imply.)
• I also used $4 in register rewards from a previous purchase.

Walmart – spent $10.52

• 3 packs of 2 roll Green Earth paper towels. $2.97 each and I used 3 “try it free” coupons from a Green Earth promotion. Making them free!
• 3 Tubs of Land O’ Lakes Butter with Olive Oil. Price matched Smiths sale of $1.50 and used 3 – 75 cents off coupons. Making them 75 cents each.
• 1 3 pack of Trident Tropical gum.  $2.38 – used $1 off coupon. Making it $1.38.
• 2 – 8 packs of Activia yogurt. $3.92 – used 2 $1 off coupons. Making them $2.92 each.

From our $150 monthly budget this leaves me with $88.33 left for the rest of the month.
