Happy New Year!

As promised many months ago, I have kept all of my Rite Aid receipts from May through December (too bad I didn't keep them from last December!). It took me a lot of time but I'm so happy to announce that I got .....

I am sure I am missing some items from this list but, keep in mind, I did not pay for these types of items all year. My hope is that I've inspired you to at least give it an honest try. Even if you start with trying to get toothpaste for free, I promise you that you will feel really good about yourself! I feel proud that I have been able to save Brad and I so much money this year.


Happy 2011 to all of my friends and family who encourage me to do this and put up with my constant babbling about deals!
