Frugal Friday With Marsha -- Little of This, Little of That

Last week was tremendously more busy than what my life usually is, and I didn't get a Frugal Friday post written up. This past week has also been busy!

Frugally in my own life, I'm not sure what's gone on really.

Dillon's (Kroger) has had a catalina deal going that for every $15 you spend in Pet Pride products you get a coupon that is good for $2 off your next shopping order. It's good through October 7th. When I seen that a month ago, I stopped ordering my cat food from amazon with earned amazon codes and started buying the cat food at Dillon's.
Honestly, it's cheaper to buy it at the store anyway as it's $9.99 for 16 lbs.

Here are a couple of good blogs to follow to keep up with the current Catalina deals:

October 7th will be here too soon when the offer ends though. This morning I used my most recent $2 off any purchase coupon and was able to only pay 50 cents for a gallon of milk.

Funny story when I was buying the milk......there was a lady in the store also buying milk. She asked me if I had heard about the kidnapping. Here I thought she was being serious until she then told me it turned out ok because he woke up. LOL!
Her next joke was to ask me why seagulls live by the sea. Well, if they lived by the bay they would be baygulls (bagels).
It was pretty early for my brain to be processing jokes hehe. They were both cute jokes though.

The Kansas State Fair had it's last day this past Sunday. I love going to the fair and just walking around, but it sure is a hard thing to do without money! I had my 6 gate passes that I got for just $3 each for entering items in to the fair and hubby got 2 free gate passes from work.
We found that we could go take an agriculture test and get a coupon for a free ice cream cone at the Dairy Bar. We did that twice.
We took our own food and drinks in with us, which we always do. It's a really rare occasion that we actually buy any food inside the fair----as good as it is, it's so expensive (and unhealthy).
You walk through the buildings and pick up free items---notepads, pens, pencils, clips, toothpicks, emery boards, books, and more. There are also all the dips and soups and other foods that you get to sample as well.
We couldn't afford to go to a concert so we just stood outside the grandstand and watched it for free on the big screen as we listened to the music. It was Charlie Daniels that I wanted to hear this year.
Here is one of the pictures I took that night of a ferris wheel, and one that I took at the free acrobat show as well.
