I told hubby I had $5.00 cash left to spend at the stores
this week. I have a budget of $45 a week
and we spent $40 of that yesterday at Kroger.

I asked him if he thought I could
go shopping at Kroger, Meijer and Walgreens
with just $5.00 cash and he said NO!
So I will see if I can prove him wrong, lol.
It's a challenge for me so it's on!
So stayed tuned this week to see how I do.
I will post receipts as proof.
Since we have a bet going on I asked him
what I got if I win this bet,
he said he would buy me a diamond ring, LMAO.
Ohhhh that's gonna look pretty on my finger!!
I have to at least get the items posted
below (or most of them providing
the stores have them in stock) to win the bet.


Here's my list so far...(REVISED)
(includes Walgreens, Meijers and Kroger!)
and once I get these items I will give
the breakdown of how I did it with
coupons, sales and catalina's.
And I am sure I will add more
as I only will have spent around
.50 cents out of that $5.00 with this list!!

Who knows I might find some marked
down items in the stores I have
coupons for so have to leave a little
wiggle room for those items.

My list below also depends upon
if the store has these items in
stock.

3 Starbuck's Frappaccino

2 cans Lindsay Olives

2 Nivea Lip Care

2 12pc. Dentyne Gum

1 Tylenol PM 24 count

3 packs of 40 count styrofoam plates

2 gallons milk

4 Suavitel liquid fabric softener

6 Purex 50 ounce liquid laundry detergent (if on sale)

2 Gorton's Fish Fillets

2 dozen large eggs

1 YoPlus Yogurt 4 pack

4 Red Gold canned tomatoes

2 Hormel Compleats

5 Sure deodorants

1 Vienna sausage

1 Nestle chocolate chips

1 Green Giant Valley Fresh Steamers

WALGREEN SUPER DEAL!!

I have not checked this deal out yet but
will get back to you to let you know.

Walgreens has the Purex 2x liquid- Mountain Breeze and Natural Elements Linen- 50 oz. on a buy one at $5.99 get one FREE mega-saver sale all month long! Combine this sale with the buy one get one FREE coupon from the 2/21RP to score 2 for FREE! Keep in mind this can become a YMMV (your mileage may vary) type situation depending upon the cashier you get.

Usually if there is a buy 1 get 1 free sale
and you have a buy 1 get 1 free coupon
that means you should get both items for FREE!!!!

I WAS PICTURE HAPPY TODAY!



Went out for mom's late birthday dinner today
at Spaghetti Warehouse.
We used 2 buy 1 get 1 free coupons.
Would have cost $66 and paid $43
for 6 people.
(not including tax or tip)
Coupons came out in last weeks coupon insert
in the Columbus Dispatch.

We got to eat inside a real trolley
car that sits inside this place.
The kids loved that!

This was my first visit there and it was
an awesome place decorated with many antiques.

EXPERIENCE COLUMBUS:
Housed in the restored historical Crystal Ice Manufacturing and Cold Storage Building, the Spaghetti Warehouse offers each guest authentic Italian food in a million dollar atmosphere. The unique and much photographed décor along with a variety of freshly prepared Italian entrees has made the downtown Columbus establishment a favorite destination for over 25 years.
