Diden't hold up
I diden't hold up the line totally yeasterday at Kmart. I had to get some stuff over at Kmart and get to go back there this month for the rest of the stuff I need for my trip. I had to chuckle about yesterday since I did stock up for the truck again. With the coupons for extra points on the card I will take it let me tell you. Since I have cut down on the paper towels around here I am not to worried on getting any soon for here in the household. Between the household goods that I need and for the truck I may as well get the points over at Kmart. Some folks figure why bother to get the card to help save money for the household. I will tell them for December and January when you are broke from the holidays the money on the card helps. For around here in December it will help becuase the trucking industry goes to snot. Anyway in how the card works is that for every 100 dollars you spend you get one dollar on the card. Then there are double and triple rewards for the week pluss the coupons from the regesters for extra points also. Now in how I do it is I stock the truck alot of the times from Kmart and the dollar stores. For 100 dollars in finger foods, bread, and peanutbutter is better than what you would spend over at the truck stops around the countery. Pluss with shopping over at Kmart I can pick up the full line of the Green Works. Also with Kmart alot of the pet food is cheaper than Walmart. So eather way I am still saveing money for around the household. Well I do look at shopping as a game around here also while I am at it all. Sometimes you just have to rake the stores over eather way with the sales and the coupons. I know some folks with the rebates, coupons, and sales do pretty good at the stores. Some stores I do not go into at all and I should. Just like one time I remember going into Walgreens to do some shopping for work. The bill ended up to be like 33 dollars. My one neighbor was horrified about it when I came back with a trunk full of stuff for dirt cheap. My Husband and I were laughing. With the in store coupons that they have over at Walgreens pluss the coupons that I took in with me also I did fairly well off of a 200 original bill. That is some of the ways that I do save money around here. Alot of the times I do use coupons to save money and streach out the dollars around here at the stores. Also with useing less of the cleaners than called for helps out around here. There have been times where my Husband has freaked out thinking I have spent more than what I did also around here. Alot of times I just do not say much about it and he knows by the look on my face to stop while he is ahead around here. Eather way it gets funny around here at times also.
