Welcome to the weekly Cha-Ching Challenge!
Did you find a HOT deal this week that you just want to share? You’ve come to the right place! Every week I post the Cha-Ching Challenge, sharing my savings for the week. Add a link to your post detailing your savings for the week OR your favorite deal of the week. I’ll choose one participating blog to highlight next week right here on Cha-Ching on a Shoestring.
Add your links to Mr. Linky at any time. In order to be considered for the Cha-Ching Challenge Highlight, just be sure to add your link no later than Tuesday at midnight EST.
Check out my savings for the week below:
Savings from coupons and store sales: $143.80
- Rite Aid: I did this moneymaking deal at Rite Aid, plus I got most of the free after rebate items. Saved $80.89.
- Target:I didn’t get a chance to post about my savings at Target last week. I got all of these free items and a few more great deals. Saved $40.58.
- Giant: Saved$20.33.
- Walgreens: Did this gum deal at Walgreens. Saved $2.
Savings from ‘Free Money’: $15.00
- Over the past few weeks, I have received some sort of freebie in the mail almost every single day. Whether it be a free cereal sample, a lip gloss sample, a free magazine subscription, or a free Playtex sample, over time these things begin to make a dent in our budget. Not to mention, going to my mailbox is a highlight of my day! (By the way, you can check out my latest freebies posts here.)
Savings from cutting costs: $500
- Our four year old, Griffin is so ready for school. But when we made the move to Pennsylvania, we left behind free pre-school in New York. We weren’t quite ready to jump into a school bill, so we opted to try out some good ol’ home schoolin’. I’m having some fun returning to my teaching roots and watching Griffin learn exciting new things. I think that’s what you call priceless.
TOTAL SAVINGS:$658.80
TOTAL SAVINGS THIS YEAR: $3956.44
