Join the link up with Rebecca for Finances on Friday
We were Netflix members years ago and they sent me an email today, offering us another a free month. they are hoping we will re subscribe, and we might, but I doubt it as we have Amazon Prime. I looked around the Netflix site and am happy to see they have Call the Midwife, multiple seasons. I've never seen am episode, just a few clips, and I to watch it now. We will see how much we enjoy this free month.
I cashed in my Swagbucks points for another $25 in paypal.
I went to Walmart today to exchange some jeans for my husband and while I was there I made one other purchase- price matching red grapes for 99 cents a pound. I got 2 bags for $4 instead of the $11 they would of been.
All the rest of our grocery shopping has been done at Aldi. We've eaten only home cooked or home prepared meals.
I needed milk, mostly for my grandchildren. I bought a gallon as it is cheapest per ounce that way. But some of the grands will be here less this summer while their parents are off work for summer so I poured some of the milk into a glass pitcher and put it in the fridge. I put the rest into 2 other plastic jugs and froze them for later.
Our family membership to the wonderful children's museum, just a few miles from our home, expired so I renewed it but got a smaller one. Last years was for up to 6 family members but I went down to just 4 and spent $100 less. My grands all enjoy playing and learning at this museum and I like that it is so close, very clean and safe and climate controlled.

The museum has a craft area with all kinds of fun recycled things to create with
We went ahead and kept our membership to netflix and I watched the 2nd season of Call the Midwife. I watched the first season each week on PBS. I haven't been able to keep up with 3rd season. :( I wished Netflix kept up with the more recent episodes of shows.
ReplyDeleteWe still have Netflix and got email about the prices going up. Since we were still active, our price is locked in for two years. Maybe now that they are going up, they will be bringing in more movies. You can watch the PBS shows on their website, you have to kinda be quick about it, since they don't keep them on too long.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the table runner! Did you make it?
Can't believe how much the grapes would have been had you not price-matched! What a difference!
ReplyDeleteIt's so nice to have your grandchildren close to enjoy and that you do fun things with them like that museum trip!
Kids and water...endless fun.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE "Call the Midwife" series...I think you will enjoy it ! :)
It looks like you are one busy lady! I liked your patriotic table runner. I like making table runner. We've been watching 'Call the Midwife' and have enjoyed it mostly. Glad to see you are doing well.
ReplyDeletewe were able to take our kids to the museum once and they loved it! I was going to get the membership but opted for the zoo instead - memberships always seem like such a huge expense but definitely pay off in the long run!
ReplyDeleteoh... I was also going to say that we got rid of our netflix and opted for amazon prime since you can have free viewing of tons of movies and shows, and also free two day shipping :)
ReplyDeleteJust wondering...where is that children's museum? Looks like a lot of fun and my grand daughter would like that water table.
ReplyDeleteGrace & Peace
