FREE BEES--> September 2025

 

This year has provided our family with 114 free items!  


This year, I am focusing on seeking fewer freebies but looking for higher-quality items to pick up.    However, I will pick up all the free bees my family will use within the year.  As a result, I may need to pay more for items previously picked up for free, but I am comfortable with this.   


Since I have changed my focus, I will not be making a goal this year.    Instead, I will use my energy to research how to elevate the items I purchase or get for free in our current economy.   

    

Traditional ways of picking up freebies include digital coupons, store coupons, reward programs, samples, and rebate apps, such as Ibotta.     I will seek additional ways to buy items at a significant discount or for free.       


January (13 Items) 

February  (14 items)

March  (16 Items) 

April (16 Items) 

May (3 Items) 

June (13 Items)

Here is my September 2025 list of Free Bees!  


September (8 items) 

  • Regular Jimmy John’s Sub- Birthday Reward

  • Meijer Can Vegetable- Meijer Store Coupon

  • Silk Milk (½ gallon)- Kroger Store Coupon 

  • 2 5X7 Photos- CVS Photo Code

  • 2 sets of containers - Michael’s $5.00 Coupon

  • Flash Drive (32 GB )- Micro Center Coupon

  • Flash Drive (128 GB)- Micro Center Coupon


Most Grateful for: The two flash drives from Micro Center.    I will be able to back up my school resources without additional expense.   


What is your favorite deal this month?  

My favorite deal was the 2 sets of containers from Michaels because the 6 containers are helping to organize my classroom visuals.   


We are coming in a lot lower in the number of freebies picked up, but the quality is high, and we will use every purchase to elevate our standard of living.   However, I was able to pick up high-quality items at rock-bottom prices this month, which will also help.

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.
