Rite Aid Shopping Trip 2/22/2009

Rite Aid, Shopping Trips, Uncategorized
This evening my husband, baby and I went out shopping.  We used the Big Lots coupon and then stopped at Rite Aid on our way home.  I wanted to use the $5/$20 coupon before it expired. 4 Reeses Whipps King Size On Sale $1.00 each = $4.00 I made 1 mistake and that was I bought the Reeses Whipps King Size rather than the regular size so my profit would have been more. 10 Soy Joy On sale $0.50 = $5.00 These were hard to find.  At first, I only could find 8 of them and lucked out and found another box that had a couple left.  I got whatever flavor they had.  This was a great deal and everyone seemed to notice too! 1 Zilcatin Swabs On Sale =…

Mint.com – free personal financial tracking!

Financial, Software, Uncategorized
Since it's the beginning of the year its that time again to start getting taxes ready and organize my financial information. I used to be a big fan of Quicken and Money but both programs have limitations and require a lot of work in my opinion.  I usually would have to spend 1 to 3 hours a month to add all of the account information and figure out my financial situation.  In addition, I prefer not to pay $30 to $60 for software that I didn't think really helped me much.  So, I did some research a couple weeks ago and I discovered Mint.com. What is Mint.com? Mint.com is a personal online financial tracking system for free!  That's right free!  You create a secure account online and add your login…
