I finally filled out the form to get reimbursed for a book purchase. That's $32 coming back to me that I spent back in August. I used a $10 coupon yesterday for Venus razor blades. I got it in response to an email I'd sent to the company, letting them know that one of the blades was dull straight out of the box. I thought that was pretty smart of them, as now I continue to use their product (which I've used for years and years). I also used a Horizon coupon for milk. So it was a good coupon day. I went to the store to stock up on ingredients for holiday baking, plus milk and yogurt.
I have fallen behind in tracking food spending, so I may or may not get that updated this month. We'll see.
The other day I bought a peppermint mocha. I got charged for a grande when I only ordered a tall, and I went back after checking my receipt and got them to refund back the difference. I would have noticed it right off the bat except I had also bought a pastry and used a recycled sleeve to get 10% off my drink, so the pricing was different than what I'm used to. It wasn't a lot of money, but it was the principle of the matter.
I think we're going to get our Christmas tree this weekend. We go to the same lot every year, and this year they mailed us a $4 coupon. 
I may sell another poncho this weekend, to a friend at church. I'm going to bring in all the stock I've made so far and sell one to her, and hopefully more to others who may wander over to see what we're doing. I'm trying to get one or two more made up before Sunday.
coupons, and more
