Third Frugal Friday of October 2023



Welcome to Frugal Friday! 

My Frugal Week

The price of gas is down to $2.79 per gallon here in southeastern Tennessee.

It’s been another busy week here as Bailey’s birthday was on Tuesday. I want to thank all of you who sent her happy birthday messages. She was so tickled over them. 


She requested Mexican food on Monday and then Japanese food on Tuesday. 


We went to several Little Free Libraries and also went to Dave & Busters and had a blast playing games. I beat the socks off of her at the life size Hungry Hungry Hippo game, although she did skunk me in air hockey. 

Freebies

We did get several freebies this week. She got a free sub from Firehouse Subs, free cookie from Crumbl Cookies, and a free Starbucks drink. 

Photo of the Week


A beautiful double rainbow coming home on Monday was the ending to a perfect day. It had been a mixture of black clouds and sunshine all day and then a very light rain created this beautiful scene. 

Saving Money on Entertainment

We watched three movies this week and they are:

Red, White, and Royal Blue  (Amazon affiliate link) is based on the bestselling book, Red, White & Royal Blue, which centers around Alex, the president’s son, and Britain’s Prince Henry whose long-running feud threatens to drive a wedge in U.S./British relations, and is free to watch on Amazon Prime.

Nerve  (Amazon affiliate link) is a high-stakes online game of dares turns deadly, and is free to watch on Amazon Prime.

Purple Hearts   (Amazon affiliate link) ~ When a soldier with a troubled past and a struggling songwriter agree to a marriage of convenience for the military benefits, neither expects much after getting married, but then through a series of struggles love shines through. 

These are paid links, as an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

It's been another busy week here and we are going swimming later this evening. I hope you've had a great week and your weekend is even better. 


Thank you for dropping by my frugal blog, you are always welcome here. 

We would love to hear all about your week in the comment section.

    A lovely picture of Bailey!!! I love her hair!!! Sounds like she had a great birthday. I think Mexican and Japanese food are my favorites. And that double rainbow is perfect. Oh what fun at Dave and Busters; I have never been to one before, and it sounds great. Hope you have a fun weekend.

      Thank you, Kathy. She loves doing her hair and has had purple before too. Dave and Busters is great fun! The Hungry Hungry Hippo game was hilarious. 😂

      I hope you have a great weekend.

    Those movies sound very interesting. I am going to check and see if they are on the Canadian Prime service.

    God bless.

    Happy belated birthday, Bailey! Those are my two favorite kinds of food also. We just got back from the Mexican restaurant! Gas here near Richmond is $3.11. I love the rainbow picture!

      Thank you, Bobbi. Seems like so many of us love Mexican food. It’s definitely one of my favorite foods.

    Those rainbows are so pretty! The birthday girl looks very pretty too! I'm jealous of your gas price, ours is still $3.35.

    I love the rainbows and Bailey's hair..both beautiful! We were able to get gas yesterday at Meijer's for $2.94 with 20 cents off per gallon. Cheaper than Sam's accross town so that was good.
