, I receive a small commission but will not know what you purchased and it will cost you nothing extra. You can even use your gift cards. Thank you for supporting our family.)
I wanna save more on these items, that leaves more $$$ in the bank to buy milk! I have learned to save money on cleaning supplies, by making my own, mop with vinegar and baking soda, clean with bleach water, etc. It also has perks of being eco-friendly! I also use old rags and burp cloths instead of disposable things.
I have overcome my fear of CVS! I made a minor flub on one purchase but saved money in spite of it. I am so happy to have all this info in hand…I am on a mission now!Thanks Penny- you rock!
