Free-Bees: November 2022

 


So far this year we were able to pick up 228 free items.   With inflation rising, the deals are minimal and hard to come.   We are grateful for everything we are able to pick up, mainly 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, 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) 

May (11 Items) 

June (13 Items) 

July (34 Items) 

August (44 Items) 

September (18 Items)

October 2022 (26 Items)

My favorite deals this month were the Thanksgiving Deals from IBOTTA.    These are items I would have purchased anyway and I was able to get most of our Thanksgiving meal for FREE.   


I almost didn’t reach my goal of 20 items, but in the last few days of November, I was amazed at the deals I found.   With inflation on the rise and companies feeling the pinch, I will be grateful if I can get 20 items for free in December.    


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.
