Went Shopping and MADE money!!!

Ok, so you all know I go on my hiatuses, then put some random post up... well this morning I woke up and went shopping at CVS and damn if I didnt get paid to shop!!! Now ok, I didnt make a whole lot of money, but all of my stuff in the end was free, and I ended up making $1.78.  Don't snicker at that change... that is a large sweet tea at McDonalds, that is a gallon of water at the dollar store...Shoot that $1.78 adds up!!!

So this is what I did...  I split my purchase up into 2:

Transaction #1

Replenish Tampons:   $6.79
Gallon of Milk:           $3.39
Replenish Coupon:    -$1.00
ERB from previous:   -$7.00
