When we were little and mom was a single mother to 2 girls we lived on potpies. You could get 10 for a $1. I still like them but rarely buy them because they have gotten very expensive.
Next I went to Walgreens and got paid a little bit to buy 2 tubes of Colgate toothpaste. I put $20 in RRs from last week on a Walgreens gift card and paid with a different gift card from earlier RRs so no money out of pocket.
