Mystery $5

The mystery of the $5 discount from Giant Eagle has been solved... got this in my email today. Don't know where this $5 discount came from, but I sure like it.

You have now redeemed your second $5 discount, and there is still one more $5 discount available on your Giant Eagle Advantage Card® for use on your next shopping trip. This offer will expire after 90 days if left unused. Please be sure to take advantage of this special savings. Another way to save from Giant Eagle.

We look forward to seeing you again soon.

is having a one day only 50% off Kelloggs sale. There is a limit of 6 though, so you can't do the deal and send in the rebate that was in this week's paper. That was my plan. Oh well.

used 2 - $1 off 2 Keebler cookies

Paid 3.36 on a Kroger gift card

Subway for lunch... had a $10 giftcard I earned from mypoints.com. See column on right to sign up! Got 2 subs for $1.75 after the giftcard... Shane was craving a seafood sub which isn't on the $5 list :) That was the only cash I used today. Everything else was paid for with Rebates, Giftcards and ECBs!
