Free Movie Rental

The kids and I had quite the productive morning. We ran into CVS (of course) and got some Pampers, 2 of the Softsoaps (with the ECB), contact solution and a Bath Buddy for $5. Then I went to Albertson's and left with groceries for the week (1 gal. milk, 2 Trix yogurts packs, 4 lbs chicken, 1 lb beef, butter, bananas, apples, grapes, frozen biscuits, 4 frozen juices) and a bunch of "stock up" stuff that I didn't need but was dirt cheap (3 Chicken Helpers, 2 fruit snacks, 2 frozen veggies, 3 Grands biscuits). My total was only $39!!!!!! I was pretty pleased with my self. I'm hoping to get that number well below $25-30 a week once I work the deals and get the pantry stocked. Basically today I just got items that were on sale and used lots of coupons. Albertson's always has stuff 10 for $10, so "stock up" on those things and use coupons (they also triple up to $.39 and double up to $.50). I'm really trying not to shop when I need things but stock up when they are on sale.

Anyway, so on the way out of Albertson's I saw the Redbox movie machine. I happened to remember my promo code "breakroom" and got the kids a movie to watch today. Perfect since it's wet and rainy out. Plus it was a surprise for them. Looks like there are tons of Redbox promo codes out there. Check them out here. It's only a one day rental but I can do the return tomorrow while I'm running my daughter to pre-school. You'll also get your first "official" code when you register at Redbox.
