I forgot to mention in my post on what I bought at Sam's Club that I got a YEAR or more's supply of Oxiclean at an excellent price! For half of what it would cost to buy it on sale in our area. I realize it's not a necessity but nothing works quite like it when you have little children, especially little boys with a fondness for mud! I've tried the generic brands but Oxiclean Versatile works the best. So, I was happy to grab a box of it. Should last a long time and help keep our smelly dishrags fresher and keep our kiddoes' clothing looking better so we can pass it on to some of YOU! My friend who is a cleaning maniac (runs the toys through the dishwasher once a week, etc.) and who has the best-dressed little girls on earth turned me on Oxiclean! She knows what she's talkin' about!

Something else I forgot to mention is that contact solution is a BAD deal at Sam's! For the brand I use, I discovered it's MORE EXPENSIVE to buy it in bulk there than to buy it at Wal-Mart. This is why it's important to pay attention to price per ounce of things.
Hey I just wanted to say thanks for these posts! We have been meaning to head that way for awhile now (we actually live very close to one, just never went) partially because I was feeling overwhelmed if it would be worth it trying to figure it all out!
ReplyDeleteYou sharing what you've learned helped me a ton because it gave me a starting place. We have food restrictions and saving money on things we can eat (like dairy) is huge for us! I brought my cooler and filled it with lots of cheese and cottage cheese along with nuts (which are also a really good price per ounce).
Not only did your post push me into finally going, the timing saved me $10 on our membership because our bank was having a promotion this week and we didn't even know it!
So thanks!
What a comment to make my day! I always love hearing that the little things I write here to encourage women actually do encourage and help people sometimes! Thanks for sharing and I'm so glad you were able to stock up and save money at the same time! =)
