Jane, it sounds like you have a good system to shop and you get right to it when you shop. I bet it saves you from those impulse buys we sometimes like to make by strolling through stores.
You're right though about the cost of makeup. I don't like to wear it but had to go out recently so I broke down and purchased some. I couldn't believe the prices, so I guess it's another area to watch for sales and use coupons as well (I have seen some coupons in Walgreens for makeup). Quote:

food.. costco buy hamburger, bread, milk. grocery outlet for everything else.
cleaning products..dollar stores.
big lots for everything else.
whats costing me the most money right now is having to cover up these stupid sores.i hate having to buy make up, i never been one to use much, but buying stuff to cover being sick really costs money.also doctors arent cheap since im on medical i have to pay cash to see a decent one. |
