The $.05 credit for each reusable bag you use is back at Super 1 Foods. You may have to ask for it, as I almost always used a reusable bag but only even found out about the credit the week before they canceled it in early April. Not only is it good for your budget, and good for the environment, but it is much easier to carry 2 or 3 good reusable bags into the house with groceries than 12-15 {Read More}

Walgreens Scenarios 5/1 starting with more RRs
While I personally don’t like to keep a lot of RRs on hand (usually less than $10), I know people that are quite successful at keeping 20, 40, or even 80 $$ in RRs at a time. If you had 10-20 in RRs each week the best benefit is reducing the # of transactions needed to get all the items you want. My original scenario for this week required 6 transactions to get $66 in merchandise with the lowest OOP. {Read More}
