Below, what I brought home today for $10.80 out of pocket: The monthly Unmentionable from Victoria’s Secret, shrouded in pink tissue paper to protect the innocent. A great big pile of library books on sewing, because I love the library and I think it’s completely wonderful that this free resource exists. Our library has free wi-fi and [...] “You saved $64.50,” the checkout guy said solemnly as he handed me my receipt. “This is why I say, you know how to shop.” This was my final Super Doubles trip this week. I know I say this every time, but I love Harris Teeter. Sometimes their receipts or emails ask you to take a survey, and I’m always all over that. Ten! Ten! I give everything a ten! Why yes, I do have some comments, and those comments are that your store rules! Anyway, Super Doubles is back, and [...] I have to say that I thought $1.43 was cheap for hair dye. And it is, but 89 cents is even cheaper. I’m trying to teach myself to sew. Here is a picture of the cat helping me. I have an old Singer my mother-in-law gave me and a great desire to wear wrap dresses the likes of which I cannot seem to find for purchase. Plus, I’m really tall, and I love the idea of custom-fit clothes. [...] The cashier at HT today did not have a compliment for my mad coupon skillz. I was a bit saddened by this, but resolved to do better to earn her approval next time. The cat’s like, “Nothing to see here! I’m just a box of tea with the head of a cat! Move along!” Seconds after [...] Continuing my tradition of naming these posts according to the cashier’s comments upon checkout (two counts as a tradition, right?), I submit to you “Completely Awesome.” Today’s HT trip was so awesome, in fact, that I totally forgot to take a picture. (Also I was hungry and wanted to get right to making dinner.) So [...] “Almost 100 smacks” is how the cashier at Harris Teeter referred to the amount I saved. Specifically, “almost 100 smacks” in this case is $98.09, with an out-of-pocket cost of $74.94. As you might have guessed, Super Doubles are back! Yesterday’s trip was a good one, but I forgot to get Greek yogurt. Since it was on sale at Giant, I headed there: Giant actually also included three “tripler” coupons in its Sunday insert today (pair them with any manufacturer’s coupon worth 99 cents or less, and it will triple). I was going to get some [...] Mr. Jones got home from softball today and took some ibuprofen for his knee; as he did, he mentioned that it was the first time in a long time that he’d had to take painkillers. I realized that I too have been painkillerless for weeks. It’s almost like eating more healthfully might be … good [...] |
