Making a Grocery List

United States
October 23, 2019 7:52am CST
Well, that's actually done. I consulted Ibotta and the Sales ad + digital coupons. I've accrued a $6 savings on top of that with the program that FL has. I need to go by the bank to get the $20 out that I need to give for the Baklava, and might end up going by the dollar tree but I'm not so sure on that. Might have lunch while we are out, might not.. I don't know about that either. I need to do laundry when I get back, but that's about it. Bathroom was done earlier this week, kitchen was done in stages earlier this week. What's your plans for today?

I went outside yesterday and I stayed at home today. As it was a nice sunny day I washed some window glasses, I will continue in the next few days.

It is nice and sunny here. It was chilly when we first left but it warmed up a few degrees to be very nice out. Have you decided what you will spend that 50% off on?

@LadyDuck I hope that you do. I got a similar coupon in the mail a few days ago from a store that I do not often visit. The store is a big discount store for mass merchandise, mostly closeout type prices. I have gotten a nice blanket from them before. They also offer good prices on some appliances with good brand names. I thought to go there for part of my gift buying for Christmas.

My laundry is all done from yesterday thankfully. My dishes I got done while my niece slept.. and she is still sleeping so I'm catching up here. I need to get groceries soon as well but don't have much free time.

I'm sure you'll find an hour or two to sneak and get some groceries. How late do the grocery stores stay open there? The one I go to closes at 10, or maybe its 11. I just started my load of laundry. What's for dinner tonight?

I'm glad you have coupon savings, amounting to a $6 savings that's wonderful! Enjoy your day, Amber:) Our kitchen gets cleaned in stages, also. For one minute it's clean, ten minutes later it's a mess!
• United States

Yes we have the problem of the kitchen getting dirty again in seconds. We can't even blame it on kids as it's all adults that live here. I'll clean the dishes and have the sink empty, ten minutes later I'll come back and find that there are more dishes to be cleaned. From shopping today I earned an additional $2.00 to be used for next time. I have to shop there three more times before November 26th and spend $50 each time to get $20 back. I am trying to do this as I think it will be good for stocking up.

@kobesbuddy It can vary, but yes $50 is about what we spend. Sometimes less and sometimes more.

@ScribbledAdNauseum We usually spend at least $50 for groceries, with each visit to the store.

Because of a paperwork issue at work. I have to reapply 30 days from when I was hired the first time and theyll get me back in on the schedule. Just talked to my manager about that. I have laundry to fold, bedding to wash. Bathroom to clean and a some sweeping and mopping to do. Other than that some online work. What websites are you active on these days. Its been so long since Ive put any real effort into online stuff I dont even know whats good.

@thislittlepennyearns Over where? On Irazoo? I had an account years ago but I found it was too slow. I don't think perk worked for me. I look at beermoneyforum on reddit but no, I don't have a beermoney official forum account.

Thank You. I went to the store and then to lunch. We were actually close to the Kmart that is closing down but I didn't go in there nor to the DT. Now I am home and it's on to mylotting and doing Chores. Hope you enjoy the rest of your day.

It's a greek dessert with honey, walnuts and filo bread. It's delicious. Yes, I need to be active here as well so that I have a good amount to spend for Christmas.
