Weekly Shopping-11/1-11/7

This week I made shopping at Walgreens, Aldi and in an Indian store.

I earned $8.87 through register rewards for buying all the above items from Walgreens (except Maple syrup and fresh mozzarella cheese). So, these moneymakers are going to reduce my overall weekly spending.

Aldi Deals:
I bought both fresh mozzarella cheese for the panini and Maple light syrup for $4.08. I prefer Aldi for items such as cheese, onions and milk. You'll get the same quality items for less price.

In addition, I spent $38.12 in an Indian store last Sunday.

Overall, the total is ($38.12+$4.08-$8.87) $33.33

I'm $3.33 over the budget. As I'm under the budget most of the time, its acceptable to cross the budget limit sometimes. (not always.. reminding myself)

Swagbucks Alert: Check Swagbucks Blog for 1 Swagbuck

Check Swagbucks Blog titles (Posted today) for a code worth for 1 Swagbucks.

For those who doesn't know what Swagbucks is, its a search engine that gives points for your web searches. You'll randomly get reward points during your searches. You can buy things from the points in your account. For example, you can get $5 Amazon e-gift card for 45 points. Till now, we're earned more than $100 from Swagbucks through Amazon Gift cards.

Tip #1: Use Baby oil as "Eye make up remover"

If you are a regular user of any eye make up (I use both Mascara and Eye liner), this tip may be an useful tip. Remove your make up with a cotton ball dipped in baby oil. I've been using this for over 3 years and I'm totally satisfied with the result.

Also, if you want dark eyebrows, apply baby oil in your eyebrows before going to bed.
