Aimee's Bargain Shopping Adventures, part 2



Ooh, my second post about bargain shopping. I know you are so excited to read this, so I'll keep it brief.


Proud Moment #1- My trip to Walgreens to redeem my $20 in Register Rewards (which are spent like cash in the store). I calculated so I would spend very little out of pocket on this trip. The total came to $20.75. So I owed 75 cents and paid with a dollar coin. The manager looked at me and said, "I've never had anyone pay for their purchase with just one coin before."


Proud Moment #2- My recent trip to the commissary (military grocery store). When ringing up my purchases the cashier complimented me on what good coupons I had. (I had 4 coupons totaling $4.50 in savings.)


I'm looking forward to more proud frugal moments in the future.
