Free-Bees: December 2021

 


So far this year we were able to pick up 255 free items.  Our life has gotten really busy and a little overwhelming, so we are grateful for everything we are able to pick up at such deep discounts.      


As always, I am able to secure these items through Kroger incentives, Giant Eagle Advantage Program, Drug Store (Walgreens/CVS)  Rewards programs, sales, Pinch Me, Smart Source, Meijer’s Buy 10 get the 11th free sale, and Rebates Programs (IBOTTA/SavingStar).   


Here is my December 2021 list of Free-Bees!  


December (14) 

  • Orange Ginger Aromatherapy Mist- Bath and Body Works Full Product Coupon

  • Muscle Milk Zero Sugar (4 ct)- Kroger Sale, Kroger Cash, IBOTTA

  • Kroger Italian Sausage (1 pound)- Kroger Free Product Coupon 

  • Crest Toothpaste (3.5 oz)- Kroger Sale, Coupon 

  • 4 Pro-Health Crest Toothpaste (4.6 oz)- CVS Sale, Coupon, and ECB

  • 8x10 Photo- Walgreens Coupon

  • 5 Photos (4X6)- Walgreens Coupon 


Last year we were able to pick up 337 items for free, but I became very busy this year and didn’t focus on this for a few months.    However, I feel very blessed to be able to get 255 items for free.    This past year my husband worked on his photography skills, so we had many pictures to print, frame, and spread a little joy to our friends.
