(I already claimed the rebate for the $7.99 spent on the Loreal so I should be reimbursed the entire amount, making this week a money maker.)


*I made a list of commitments last week to help me to become healthier. So this week I incorporated exercise into my shopping by WALKING to both CVS and Walgreen's. I just brought my son in the stroller and it was easy to lug all of my stuff home with me. Add to that MORE savings because I didn't even have to start up my car to score these deals. I feel blessed that I live in a low traffic neighborhood near a CVS and a Walgreen's.

Good question, OOP stands for out of pocket. After all the coupons, sales, store credit etc., I spent x amount in actual cash out of pocket.
