Frugal Confessions Friday!!

Posted on | March 5, 2010 | 5 Comments

Hello Frugal Confessions Readers!

I traveled this past weekend up to PA and had a blast taking care of wedding details…and my friends and family threw me a bridal shower as well!!! So much fun. Needless to say, I am still catching up on sleep and work:). I will be back next week with some more articles.

In the meantime, here is my frugal confession of the week:

I received a PetSmart coupon for $10 off a $50 purchase. While I hardly make $50 purchases for our fish and cat (in fact, I don’t think I ever have), I decided that I would use the opportunity to stock up on pet supplies for the rest of the year (I have also never seen one of these coupons before, so it is a good deal). I bought Lyla one large bag of dry cat food, 24 cans of wet cat food, and 40+ pounds of litter. I also managed to buy the fish a humungous tub of fish food. With peelie coupons that I found on the products themselves, a coupon from the paper, and the $10 off coupon, I managed to stock us up on all of our pet supplies until Christmas time for $47!!!!

If you do this, don’t forget to check expiration dates to make sure that your pets will be able to use the food before it expires.

What are your frugal confessions of the week? I’d love to hear them!

    Ok, here’s a confession. I know I’ll hear about it, but oh well.

    Our dogs weigh 21 pounds and 25 pounds. Heartworm medicine comes for 16-25 lb dogs and 26-50 lb dogs. Instead of spending almost twice as much for the 16-25 lb dog tablets, I buy the 26-50 lb dog tablets and cut them in half.

    Our pets have been parasite free ever since we adopted them, so I figure it’s working just fine. I just couldn’t bring myself to pay almost twice as much for the same basic amount of medicine…

    Hey Crystal: Thanks for the confession. I think it’s fine because they are still getting the same amount of medicine. Happy Monday!
