1 – Took advantage of a Starbucks coffee deal (Target offered a $5 gift certificate if you spent $20), and I used two coupons, total around $4 a bag.
2 – I have been using only cold to wash my clothes after years of thinking it was warm or nothing. I can’t tell the difference!
3 – Sold an unused thing on Craigslist for $30.
4 – Cooking up chicken bones in the slow cooker right now for broth. Free nutrition!
5 – I have been keeping the thermostat at 81. Typically it’s on 78. So far, we’re dealing with it. It helps that in the worst heat of the day, we can hit the neighborhood pool for free. It’s amazing how dipping into that COLD water can cool you off for the rest of the day.
Sadly, I did waste some food this week. A moldy lemon, a nasty orange, and an entire package of Brie that somehow got lost in the fridge. Two of my kids love Brie so I’m not sure how this happened!
