How nice that it works better then before the penny!<br />I’ve started my Summer job so i’ve been too busy to spend much money. We have a nice stockpile so that helps. I did go to our local IGA for free milk when you buy four cereals for 8.00. We rarely get decent coupons for cereal but the price wasn’t too high so I bought four. My husband eats a huge bowl almost every morning. Other then that, holding the course!<br />Good luck with all you have going!Debbienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7536514511090897212.post-87824611736324351222018-05-20T17:40:08.146-08:002018-05-20T17:40:08.146-08:00I'm glad you were able to get the substitution...I'm glad you were able to get the substitutions for the aspirin. I did get the low-dose substituted for 2 of the bottles I won, which was wonderful, as I take one of those daily. <br /><br />It's so hard to stay in budget when there are good deals at the store! I didn't see those good $5 deals this week around here, but I wasn't looking very hard. I knew I wanted the free car charger from Fred Meyers and was pretty sure I couldn't trust myself in 2 stores with good deals this week!!! So, I chose Freddies and didn't really examine Safeways's ad very well:)<br /><br />It's crazy that your kids are out of school already. Ours don't get out until mid-June. It's even crazier that you can't get summer weather, but makes sense since you are so much farther north then I am here in Oregon. We have had sunnier, drier weather than usual and I'm finally getting yard work done and the garden is in. <br /><br />I hope you have a good week.Beckyathomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11105835394158145451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7536514511090897212.post-44400981418475731902018-05-20T14:53:08.241-08:002018-05-20T14:53:08.241-08:00I buy my plants because I really only buy two regu...I buy my plants because I really only buy two regular tomato plants and one grape. They have been on my front porch for over two weeks waiting for it to stop raining. We are trying one barrel of potatoes to try but if we get a wet summer everything is going to rot. I have literally no luck in growing food.

Lettuce and dwarf chard are in and I was hoping to plant some thyme, but the seeds didn't germinate, so I was going to maybe buy a plant, but my soul is too cold. My gas and electric aren't happy this summer either. Keep hoping for a week of sun, but so far it's not looking good.Erika, "The Make Do Homemaker"https://www.blogger.com/profile/09303208981550053539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7536514511090897212.post-32263865275404543422018-05-20T13:46:36.490-08:002018-05-20T13:46:36.490-08:00Holy cow!

I Dream of Jeanie too!
Sorry y...I love Bewitched! I Dream of Jeanie too! <br /><br />Sorry you had another rough week, at least you had a few positive things! I would looooove to have tha tmany grocery freebies! Awesome! <br /><br />It's been a weird weekend here. My 10 year old had gotten out of the shower and dressed, and I was cutting his hair when he suddenly fainted, like eyes rolled back hit the floor faint. Scared the heck out of me. The peditrition on the phone (after hours) said watch him, and if he's ok, bring him in Monday. So I'll be calling them tomorrow morning first thing. He seems ok, but has gotten Dizzy once yesterday, and twice today. I'm so worried, hardly been able to sleep. Hoping it was just a combination of a tiny bathroom, steam in the air and lack of oxygen, plus too many hair goos sprayed, but he's never had tha thappen before. Don't know. <br /><br />I hope your next week is good, I'm glad you posted, I've checked back a few times but figured you were busy as usual!!
