Frugal Doings

This covers a couple of weeks since I missed posting last Friday.

*I called to get Toby some flea medicine from the vet.  I learned that they were offering a free dose which meant that Toby is flea free for free.

*I made infused water with strawberries and mint from the garden.

*I planned laundry around the incoming rain.  I saved up everything that would dry easily on the drying racks inside to wash on the days with the most chances of rain. 

*I opted to use marigolds, which I have piles of, to plant in the large planters on my front porch.  Buying new flowers was tempting, but these were free.  They will also hold up well to the heat.

*I picked strawberries, lettuce, and squash from the garden this week. We also ate some blackberries and raspberries in passing.

*I reused some envelopes to mail off some items that I sold on eBay.

*W has been building a turkey pen using items we already have.  He should be able to complete it for nothing out of pocket.

*I picked up a few clearance items over the past two weeks.  One was a nice light jacket for W.  I also got a few things to donate and picked up a few things for gifts. 

*I signed up for a couple more free magazines. 

*I transplanted some tomato plants to other parts of the garden.  I took advantage of the rain softening the dirt to pull weeds.  It took time but was cheaper than buying and spraying chemicals.
