Today's Savings

So I have yet to figure out what the theme of this blog will be, but seeing as there are no readers yet, it doesn't really matter. Today I hit 2 stores before and after church.

CVS - SPENT: $5.18 SAVED: $21.87 BOUGHT: 3 Newspapers ($3 - gotta restock those coupons!), 2 Crest Pro-Health toothpastes, 1 RightGuard Deodorant, 2 DryIdea Deodorants - 7 Transactions between 2 CVS cards

WALGREENS - SPENT: $20.66 SAVED: $67.50 BOUGHT: 2 Newspapers ($2), 10 Oral B Indicator Toothbrushes, 2-4oz Glade Vanilla Candles, 2-4pack Bic Soleil Razors, 8 Aussie Shampoos and Conditioners, 6 Gourmet Lollipops - 13 Transactions

The manager at Walgreens actually CUT ME OFF! "We don't get another shipment in until next week and we want other people to be able to buy these things."Whatever.. onto the next one tomorrow, I guess.

The garage sale I had Friday/Saturday from 7am-12noon (10 hours total) I made 195$... and still have boxes upon boxes of CRAP to get rid of, drop off at the women's shelter, Craigslist and try to re-garage sale another day. OF THE QUICKEST SELLERS: toothbrushes for 50cents each (bought 2 for maybe 20cents at a time), New McCormick Grinders Seasonings for $1 each(normally 1.99, bought for free) and candles (sold for $1 each, bought for 19cents each). Almost forgot! Church has a rubbish sale in October... now THERE is a place I can drop off all the knick knacks I can't bear to trash!
