Free-Bees: May 2022

 


So far this year we were able to pick up 73 free items.  With our current health crisis, the deals are very limited and hard to come.   We are grateful for everything we are able to pick up, especially because we are only going to the store when we need a list of items.      


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).   


January (13 items) 

February (5 items) 

March (5 items)

April (29 items) 


Here is my May 2022 list of Free-Bees!

My favorite deal this month was getting the eggs and bratwurst from Kroger.   With inflations going higher and higher, I am grateful for these useful free items.    Unfortunately, getting free items is getting harder and harder, so sometimes the best bargains may cost a few dollars.  


We are moving to a new area, so next month will be interesting to see how many items I can find. 


What is your favorite deal this month?

Since March has 4 weeks, our monthly budget is $757.20.   We elevate our dining experiences by including fresh fruits, vegetables, and higher-quality meats.  Since we have health concerns and are active individuals, we limit our processed food choices.    Grocery Shopping Tip:     Utilize your grocery store’s loyalty program.
