I know many of you do not like Wal-Mart for various reasons. But when money is as tight as it is you have to go where the best bargains are. As much as I do not like Wal-Mart’s practices at times, I cannot pass up items I can get for free or really cheap.
Here is my shopping list when I went to Wal-Mart today. I got this list from Couponing To Disney who had this on her website. I only picked items we use. The actual list is much longer so check it out and see if you can get more items for free.
Unfortunately I wasn’t able to get all the items on my list because either they were out of stock or the pricing didn’t match.
Here are my results:
*Rolaids (3 pack of original rolls) – Bought 2 packs

If you are expecting this site to show a person whose house is spotless, with homemade meals and desert made from scratch on the table every night, the laundry always caught up, my kid always acting perfect and handmade gifts given for every holiday, then you’ve landed on the wrong site.
If you are NOT like the person mentioned above and you want to come hang out with someone who isn’t a Supermom either, then you’ve come to the right place.
