Frugal Friday ~ June 8, 2018

This was a good week for me on Ebay as I sold seven items this week. My daughter posted multiple items on Ebay this week and I crossposted those to Mercari and Poshmark for her. 

We went to McKay Used Books this week. There were so many cookbooks with great prices this week. I found four of the older hardcover Southern Living cookbooks that were 15¢. I love the ones with the older recipes as they tend to be more frugal for me. 

We went to the Flowers Bakery Outlet this week. We bought two loaves of Nature's Own for 79¢ each and two loaves of Dave's Killer Bread for $2.50 each.

The Dave's Killer bread makes a quick breakfast if you toast it add cream cheese or strawberry preserves.

We went to Bargain Hunt this past week to check their prices because we'd both heard good things about their prices. 

But, we were disappointed in the prices and thought they were high, but we shop around and look for the best prices, coupon and yard sale, so they naturally seemed high to us. Sort of like when Amy D's children experienced retail sticker shock. 

The one good deal we found was quart size jars of Vlasic Bread & Butter pickles for $3.25 each, which sell for $4.93 at Walmart, so a good savings on those. We bought two jars and will probably use those up this summer. 

I gave myself a haircut on Thursday and did it outside to avoid the mess inside the house. 

We've been in use it up mode in our kitchen this week, but you can read about that in my weekly kitchen post. 

An oldie, but a goodie...my ice cubes were tasting off to me, so I put a box of baking soda in my freezer to absorb any odors. 

That's all we have for Frugal Friday this week. 

Thank you for your comments and visits this past week. I hope you enjoy the coming weekend and take time to relax and take care of yourself.
