What are some things I have done to be frugal today-
*hanging laundry on drying rack
*eating lunch at home
*not driving anywhere thus far
*dinner is what is on hand-so no trips
to the grocery store, can't be tempted
to puchase things
*not putting on any lights-windows are open for fresh air.
New lesson I learned.
Stopped for washer fluid yesterday it was on sale at the drug store. Purchased that and a few other items. Got home and looked at the receipt to check if I got a coupon on the register tape. Well I noticed right off the bat the girl over charged me $2. Now do I drive back and get a refund or save the gas and not bother? I really do not have any trips planned that way for at least a week. it is about 6-8 miles from my house. What would you do??? I am always trying to balance what is a waste of gas...waste of money...waste of time...etc for the sake of being frugal.
Lesson learned is pay better attention when you pay and check the receipt BEFORE you leave the store!!!! A good $2 lesson learned.
A $2 Lesson
