I typically pay for rebates out of my grocery budget and then add the money back in once I get my rebate checks back. The past several months I haven’t been adding it back in, I have been depositing them into savings. This week I got $14 in checks so I decided to hit up Ulta for the great deal on shampoo.
I got a liter of Abba for $13.99
plus an Ulta brand eyeliner for $1
I used a $3.50/10 coupon and paid $12.85


My 4 year old son drinks the almond milk, and I was wondering if you could tell me which is better tasting, the shelf almond milk or the refrigerator one. As you know, its either free at Nugget or $1 at Bel Air. For the taste, which would you go with? Or does it matter?
Thanks!
I want to shop like that help me please
Angela I think the refrigerated kind is not as thick. They are both good. Personally I like the shelf stable kind just in case we run out of milk- I keep it in the pantry. I also like it for when the girls have bottles in the car- it is 100 degrees here and I feel like that kind will hold up better than normal milk.
So I guess either 🙂 I would use your coupons to get it free at Nugget and then if you can spot the $1 blinkies at Safeway- get a few of the refrigerated kind at Raleys.
Where are the dollar off coupons for the Almond Breeze? I’ve been out of comission with some surgery so sorry if you posted this already. Thanks Michelle
