My Frugal Ways this Week 12/9/18!

Here are the ways I've saved this past week:


We went to see our favorite light show at our local historical village.  This is the one time of the year that they let you drive through the village for $5.00 a carload.   So pretty!  



I have so far made three Fleece tie Blankets for Christmas presents.  



Lucky for me I have someone to hold down the blankets while I work!  

Received a coupon in the mail from Hungry Howies for a free pizza and a digital coupon for a free donut from Meijer for my birthday this month.  Yes, they both were delicious!  

We are trying a different way to grocery shop this month (biweekly).   It's a learning experience but I hope to save at least $60.00 a month trying it this way.  

We bought hamburger for $1.99 a pound and restocked the freezer.  I froze patties in hamburger Tupperware containers.  I then cooked and froze hamburger in 1 pound packages for meals later on.  

I made waffles and froze some for later breakfast meals.  

I reused a couple of those big bags from the stores for garbage bags.  


My goals for this week:

Make one more fleece tie blanket and then I'm through!  

Continue fixing up the doll house for granddaughter.  I need to make cushions for the seats in the library this week.  So far I've made blankets, put down floors (samples from the hardware), crochet rugs, made a sheet set, and even found some pots and pans that were hidden in one of the dressers.  This dollhouse was given to me by a sweet neighbor.  



What are the way's you've saved this past week?
