Day 265: Utilities, Groceries, and New Tunes
The only out-of-the-house shopping I did today was a quick trip to the grocery store because we were all out of milk. The Husband paid a couple of utility bills today and gave me the receipts so I’ve included them as well. My final spending of the day was in the form of a late-night iTunes [...]
Day 264: Returns, T-Shirts, and N2O Cream Charger Cartridges
The Container Store — ($35.31)
I returned four items from my shopping spree last week: First, the plastic lid to storage box on coasters. Come on, let’s be realistic here — it will be a miracle if I can get The Son to actually contain his socks and misc stuff in these containers to begin with; [...]
Day 263: Crocs, Lemonade, a Book & Gasoline (ouch!)
Total Spent Today: $184.09
I spent nearly the entire day driving. Ugh. For as much driving as I did, I actually did very little shopping. With 4 people with busy schedules, three drivers, and two cars, our coordination of vehicles and schedules is sometimes quite complicated.
Safeway — $70.06
After dropping The Husband off at his office so I [...]
Day 262: Sushi, Sandals, and Supplies
Total Spent Today: $107.73

can of house soda pop — $.79

Day 261: Car Stereo, Nalgene Bottle, & Skirt Hangers (plus incoming $)
Total Spent Today: $298.31
Net Spent Today: $243.33
REI — ($50.13)
As I mentioned in yesterday’s post, I collected all of our old Nalgene bottles (well, all the ones the kids could find — one of The Daughter’s is still missing) to return for a refund/store credit. The return process took a couple of minutes but overall went very [...]
Day 260: Bagels and BPA-Free Nalgene Bottles
Einstein Bros. Bagels — $17.29
It’s been several weeks since we made an after-church bagel run so when The Son requested one this morning I said sure. The kids had gotten hot and sweaty playing ball in the church parking lot so I also let them each have a drink — The Son chose a Sprite [...]
Consumer Tip: REI Nalgene Water Bottle Return Policy
All of you Water Bottle users — here’s an important consumer tip:
If you purchased your BPA-containing Nalgene water bottles from REI, you can return them for a full refund!
I dropped by my local REI store today to replace my children’s Nalgene water bottles since all of our old ones contain BPA. I happened to mention to [...]
