I had an appointment with the rheumatologist today. Since I had to drive towards the big city to get there, I went ahead and went all the way to the city to see my daughter. And since Target is at the freeway interchange on the way to the doctor's and my daughter's, I made a Target run, too.
My Target take: (AC=After Coupons)
- 4 trays of Whiskas Cat food $2.28 ($1.14 AC)
- Up & Up baby shampoo $1.37 ($.62 AC)
- 2 bottles French's Mustard $2.14 ($.57 each AC)
- 2 packs Dentyne Gum $2.08 ($.04 each AC)
- 2 Dulcolax $9.48 ($.74 each AC)
- 2 Propel $1.84 ($.42 each AC)
- 3 Crystal Light $7.47 ($1.49 each AC)
I paid with a gift card my husband received last week, so no out of pocket expenses for me.
When I got to my daughter's she gave me my Mother's Day present. A new rolling pin from Williams-Sonoma. Just the one I wanted! (Thanks kiddo.) And she treated me to lunch today - sandwiches from Jimmy Johns (thanks again kiddo).
After my doctor's appointment I went to the McDonald's across the street and picked up my free frozen strawberry lemonade (from the coupon in Sunday's paper).
My only expense was the doctors co-pay. (Except there will be a bill that follows for the several tubes of blood they took.)
Didn't pay at Target, didn't pay for a new rolling pin, didn't pay for lunch, didn't pay for strawberry lemonade.
And on top of that, finished a quilt and exercised for the 31st day in a row.
A productive but cheap day.
