This month I averaged $38 per week! I received a prepaid gift card in the mail for Rite Aid from a previous refund that absorbed most of the tax on my purchases there in February. I used some of my coupons for free 12-packs of Coke at Rite Aid to take advantage of their promotion to earn $1.50 in UP rewards when you buy 3, so that was a money maker. I also stocked up on free milk at Harris Teeter Super Doubles and splurged on some fresh produce. I am now slowly building a stockpile of candy for upcoming Easter baskets!

Weekly Roundup #7 - February 15-21

This week I managed to stay just under my $50 budget, thanks to some nice money makers at Rite Aid. I used the UP rewards that I earned to buy snacks for my daughter's volleyball tournament at the Washington Convention Center.

I also got some great deals at Harris Teeter super doubles and stocked up on cheap Mexican foods (tortillas, chips, and refried beans) and cheap dog food at Giant.
