Weekly Wrap Up

It's time for Jennifer's weekly wrap up! We've had a pretty frugal week so far.
* I hung all of our laundry on the clothes line this week.
* Washed all clothes in cold water
* Spent under $100 at the grocery store
* Used the library to reserve the books I had wanted to buy on Amazon- savings of $100
* Planted 95% of our garden.
* Avoided yard sales and thrift stores.
* Only ate out once...for lunch and spent under $5
* Went to a jewelry party and didn't spend any money but won $50 in free jewelry and was able to get the necklace I liked. Also signed up for a party and earned another necklace that I loved but didn't want to buy for $100 for $10!!
* used our swagbuck Amazon gift cards and bought three Christmas presents and only paid $15 out of pocket!!

Good job, sounds like you had a good week. I love Swagbucks! I have been saving my Swagbucks for a rainy day. I haven't decided yet what I want.

Have a great weekend.

An impressive share! I have just forwarded this onto a friend who
was conducting a little research on this. And he actually bought me breakfast because I stumbled upon it for
him... lol. So let me reword this.... Thank YOU for
the meal!! But yeah, thanks for spending the time to talk
about this topic here on your blog.
