Make money shopping?!?!

I have heard about this for quite awhile, but have never been able to figure it out until now! I've recently learned how you can make money by shopping! How you might ask? Well...the easiest places to do this are CVS and Walgreens, but you can do pretty well at Publix also! If you want to learn how you should go to www.moneysavingmom.com She gives a pretty good explanation of how it works! I'm going to do my best to post my CVS/Walgreens/Publix transactions each week to show you how well I did! I am still new at all of this, but so far I've done pretty good!

Here are my first few attempts!!!

*Did I need any of that stuff? The answer is no, but in the beginning of this game you need to earn some extra care bucks and this was my way of doing so! From now on, I shouldnt have to pay very much out of pocket! As for all the junk I got...I'll either find a use for it, or give it to charity!
