    Well, it's my weekend off which happens rarely so I needed to do a little shopping. I do all the shopping for the business that I work for and we have a deal. I do the shopping on my own time but I keep all the points, airmiles, rebates, whatever. Last weekend, between the SC Johnson and Royale TP deals at Safeway, I earned 50.00 in airmiles and 53.00 back on apps. I also had 85.00 in pts at SDM from shopping for work this past month.

    I made myself a promise to stay under 20.00 when all was said and done today. Here's what I got"

    First stop WM. I went because the website showed that my store had the .50 clearance Sunlight laundry tabs. I could not find them. I hate WM. Every few months I forget that I hate it and I go back. Argh.


    2 Airwick Home Scented Oil Plug Ins. Reg 5.97 PM RCSS 3.97 Used 2x 2.00 coupon. 1.97 each

    Wow. As soon as i read that you get to keep all the pts and cash backs for your office shopping, i pressed that thumbs up button on your post.
    This in unbelievable! It's almost as if your job paid for all of this. That must have felt awesome to buy all these things for so little OOP.

    Did I mention I am looking for a job? I am a truck driver by trade and if I could combine your shopping bonuses and a job driving truck I don't think I would need the lottery!! Well done!!

    My coworkers know but think couponing, points, etc, is stupid and they poke fun at me for it. No one else wants to do the shopping unless they are getting paid for it.

    You are one smart cookie and keep up the great work! You can put those saving towards a bigger ticket item and then you will have the last laugh over your co-workers.

    Great job! Is the Air Wick product a LifeScent product because there is a full rebate for that product right now?

    So you redeemed your points at SDM and still got the $10.00 GC? I don't think they're supposed to do that so that is kind of an awesome deal
