Ran several errands today

Walgreens

They only had 1 6 pack of Boost so the cashier gave it to me for 1/2 price. The sale is b1g1 50% off.

3.65 - 3.00 q = .65 on gift card

Gas and $5 car wash $32.84. Gas was 2.69/gal. Discover is paying 5% back for the next 3 months on gas purchases

Safeway

I have a hard time figuring out the Safeway receipts. I don't know how it happened but I got groceries for at least $2 less than I was expecting to pay. I ended up spending $3.29 on groceries for me and $2.07 on groceries for the food pantry

Walmart - I got household items - no food. My best deal was on the Finish dishwashing tabs. They had the 20 ct on sale for $2.97 and I had $2.50 q's. Final price .47 + .23 tax = .70 each and I got 3 of them.

Last stop dropped 5 bags of groceries and personal care items at food pantry.

I need some mayonaise. I gave a ton away last year and now I find I'm down to my last bottle and no good sales or coupons. I'm so used to getting it free I don't think I can force myself to pay $2+ for it. Hopefully there will be a good deal before I am completely out

I finished reading my book The Undead Next Door by Kerrelyn Sparks. Paranormal - pretty good.
