Got:
2 Futuro knee braces – I went to Fred Meyer right after a doctor’s appointment for some knee trouble that I’ve been having, and the doctor prescribed me some anti-inflammatory medication and recommended that I buy a brace for each knee. As luck would have it, there were coupons hanging off the shelf next to the knee braces for $2/1 – so I bought the two knee braces that I needed, originally priced at $12.99 each, and paid $21.98 total for both after coupons.
1 bottle of Seventh Generation dish soap – regularly $3.49, used one free coupon that I earned through RecycleBank; final price: free.
12-pack of toilet paper – price: $4.69
1 gallon of milk – price: $2.39
The milk purchase brings our running total for Week 1 to $39.20. Our allotment for the Grocery Challenge is $25 per person per week.
[…] and track my weight. Although I have been sidelined from working out the last few months due to a knee injury, I’m happy to say that I’ve lost 5 pounds these last few weeks by focusing on my diet. […]
