$34. more into the $20 Challenge account

January 4th, 2012 at 03:29 pm

I received a $34.00 check from my Chase Rewards credit card. I deposited it in to the bank today towards my $20 Challenge!!

I saved $21.40 today using coupons at the grocery store. I spent $52.55.

Today I had to go to town for an 8:00 appointment, so I made a list of the various chores I needed to do while I was in town. I had a list of 7 stops I had to make...got everything done and was back home by 9:35 AM. A list makes things so much easier and I also used a shopping list in the grocery store. I'm sure I saved money by using that shopping list!

$20. Challenge $68.00
Deposit $34.00
New Balance $102.00

I love the Chase Rewars program. I got a free 8 gig Ipod touch for my son for Christmas with my rewards. Gotta love it!

Good job on the coupon savings. What store did you shop at? Do they double?

That's exactly what I do running errands. Saving things to do until I have to go to town. One of my kids has a dentist appt tomorrow so I will run to the bank and other quick errands while I'm in town. Saves on gas big time.

Momma23..I shopped at Meijer. They double up to $.99 coupons. Two alike coupons. I don't use as many coupons these days but still every little bit helps.
