Southlake Mall Savings 10/5

My first stop was Footlocker. I needed tennis shoes since most of my shoes are heels. To my surprise, there was a 70% clearance table in the store. I got a pair of Jordans ($84.99) for $25.50 and a pair of Nikes (54.99) for $15. I paid $40.50 plus $2.84 tax and saved $99.48. Both pair were cheaper than one pair at regular price!!

My second stop was The Limited. I wanted to use the $50 Virtual Dollars I received last month. The great thing about the Virtual Dollars is you can use them on ANYTHING!!! I also had a coupon to use as well. My first transaction included the pants($79.50) clearanced at $34.99, the pants($128) clearanced to $49.99 and a pair of earring (not pictured) for $16.50. After the $50 coupons, my total was $51.48 + $3.59 tax. I saved $172.52 or 70%.

I purchased the shirt in my second transaction. It was $39.50, on sale for $19.50. I used my Limited coupon I received in the mail for $15 off purchase. My total was $4.50 + $.32 tax. I saved $35 or 87%.

I received 2 Mystery Cards for $15, $20, $25, or $100 to spend 11/2 to 11/22.

VIRTUAL DOLLARS: The Limited runs promotions where you get $25 Virtual Dollars for every $50 you spend. When redeeming the bucks, you have to spend $50 to get $25 off during set dates. I received mine last month, but was only able to redeem them starting today.

Publix 9/28

Today I felt like the cashier was pretty rude. When she realized I had coupons, she asked for them, and spread them one by one over the counter. As she scanned my items she placed the coupons in a pile. Not only that, she waited to enter the penny item coupon, luckily I was over $10 after coupons. Because of her rudeness, I politely told her I double checked all my items BEFORE I got to the register!

Today went terribly wrong! I had to revamp my order in the 1st store...when I got to the register I was short on my $5/$25 so I piled candy bars on the counter to reach $25. When I got in the car I realized I purchased the WRONG carefree liners! So I have to return them and received $3.40 back. I had planned 2 transactions but ended up going to three different store to find items. I did not get the Lipton teas(2), glade sense and spray(2), papermate pen(2), or the comp notebooks(2). However I did gain 7 candybars!

$1.15 for DINNER!!!!

Tonite, I decided to cook, instead of eating out. We usually spend between $6 to $15 dollars depending on where we go-from Wendy's to Zaxby's. To cook my meal, it only cost me $1.15, using food items in my kitchen's stockpile. Saving money is so wonderful!

So, for dinner, I cook a pasta dish. My SO does not care for spaghetti so I used Muellers Penne, Ragu pasta sauce, Kroger ground beef and New York Texas Toast on the side. I used half box of pasta, half jar of sauce, and half pack of beef. I only used 2 toast from the pack. Now for the price breakdown:

Muellers pasta cost me $.31
$.50 for the sauce
$1 for the beef
$1.20 for 8ct box of toast

I calculate $1.15 was used for the portion I cooked tonite.
pasta $.15, sauce $.25, beef $.50, and toast $.25.

BTW, it was delicious!!!!!!! There was even enough for seconds for the both of us!

WELCOME HOME SGT DAVID BATTLE

I was so excited to witness such an event! I had my 7 month old nephew with me and we both enjoyed it! After picking him up, I noticed several people along Highway 85 with flags waving, so I rushed home and called non -emergency to see what was going on in the city. The dispatcher informed me a soldier was returning home. Luckly, Clayton County fire trucks were staged at the entrance of my neighborhood, so I got my camcorder and walked down to see the procession.
