DAY 4
Okay... so I kind of broke.
I just HAD to go to Walgreens because I had $12 in RRs that were going to expire. I figured that throwing away $12 for the sake of not spending was kind of idiotic.

Loaf of bread $2.50
Gallon of Milk $2.50
FAR Revlon $9.99

Used $12 RR
Revlon $2 MQ
Paid $1.97 on gift card from last month's rebate.
Plus I get the $9.99 back!

I did have to buy dog food today. I figure that...

After realizing that I spent $163 in one week on unnecessary expenses, I decided to go one week without spending anything at all.

I actually didn't spend anything yesterday (Sunday) because there weren't any coupons in the paper.

DAY 1

This is not that bad. Although I'd really love to hit CVS for the Neutrogena...
