I bought groceries and still have the McDonald's gift card. Also a friend gave us a $20 Tim Hortons card.1 -
You have been blessed. Where I play bingo, a mysterious person places free groceries near the prize table. I always find useful groceries. Spaghetti, beans, cereal, etc. But, we never see this person dropping off the groceries.
About bingo, we do not play for money. We play for prizes. food yet again, personal necessities, household goods, etc. I love to win tortilla chips for dip! LOL
That's about it for now... Be good! Stay safe! Hugs!

Tuesday we got dog food from a friend in my TOPS group as her dog won't eat it. On Wednesday our neighbor brought us over dog treats because his dogs won't eat them. I could have told him that as he has given the same kind before.0

Today, some people that I know are spending the day creating crafts. If I could sell crafts to make some money, I would. Such money could come in handy in buying groceries that I like. What do you think?1
-
I would love to have more time for crafting to make money.1

I love to crochet and do plastic canvas mainly but I do dable in other things as well. I am not sure how I would sell them.1
-
Went to the dollar store for some things I needed and only spent just over $10.0
-
What crafts do you create with plastic canvas? I am considering to ask my roommate to teach me. She makes coasters, soft drink cozies, lighter holders, etc. She sells her's at her place of work. I work at home...1

I mainly do Christmas ornaments for family and friends but have patterns and kits for other things as well. I find plastic canvas easy to do.
Today went and grabbed some groceries and save over $11.0 -
My lunch today was very frugal! A grill cheese with popcorn.
I am craving beef ramen for dinner, but we only have chicken ramen. Do I have the chicken ramen or not?
This week is yet another $5.00 challenge... What should I spend $5.00 on? We roommates each have this challenge. Every week we give ourselves a $5.00 spending challenge.
Can you believe Dollar Tree and their $1.25 costs? I am very disappointed in the Dollar Tree company.
Ok... I am very hungry and simply guess to have the chicken ramen. Maybe a Mix n Match Skillet. Such recipe is simply:
1 soup
1 pasta
1 meat
1 vegetable
Yep. I think I can do a Mix n Match! LOL

Frugal where I live here in Canada Dollar tree has always been $1.25. Everything is going up which means we need to plan better I guess.0

Like I had mentioned in another discussion, the roommates picked up some of my favorite ramen... beef ramen! Yay!
Today, I went to the cafe where I used to work to spend a few hours to get out of my office. An anonymous person left boxes of donated goods. I am grateful and chose six (6) cans of black beans that can make up to two (2) batches of Crock-Pot chili. I also chose two (2) refillable plastic water bottles.
Tomorrow is Bingo. I am not sure if I want to go or not. With the new position, I want to be available without any distractions. The prizes do come in handy though.
Have a good evening!

Today saved about 80 cents on strawberries today.1

Yesterday, I was happy with the deli. Where we usually get lunch meat, they usually do not slice the lunch meat thin like I like. We went to a different grocery store yesterday and I was happy. I like my lunch meat sliced thin. The deli made the lunch meat paper thin. For $7.99 the lunch meat was a bargain. I chose hard salami.1

Bought a couple of tank tops for $4 and some for $8 plus I saved 17% on everything that I purchased.1

3 crates of bottled water for $10.00
Instead of buying gallons of lemonade, I have used a gallon water jug to prepare unsweetened lemonade Kool-Aid. Only 2 to 3 packets each jug. A local grocery store sells 10 packets for $1.001 -
Went grocery shopping today and saved $37!0

Today I saved about $25 on groceries.1

My neighbor brought over vanilla almond milk and chocolate almond milk, 2 big bags of lettuce and Chex Mix. We are always low on milk. We were out of lettuce. Chex Mix is always a treat and a tradition of my neighbor. My neighbor is a blessing.
Last night, a roommate and I made up a grocery list and did good. The total came to about $35.00 when usually about $80.00. Now we need to wait for the other roommate's approval.
I have been consuming alot of beef Ramen noodles. I like to throw in a can of vegetables.
Because of my religion, it is a tradition to consume fish on Friday's during Lent. Why do churches cost such astronomical amounts for their fish fry? Where I live the closest fish fry wants $10.00. So, I simply prepare a meatless dish at home.

Neighbors are the best! Ours gave us an apple pie on Thursday and we haven't even touched it Lol 😂. That is sooooo not normal. Fish Fry's here are $20+.1

Today broccoli crowns, baby carrots and strawberries were on sale. Yummy 😋!1

For my $5 weekly challenge, I applied the $5 toward a can of McCafe and only paid $4.50 out of pocket total. Yes expensive, but worth every penny.
