9 Ways Wal Mart Grocery Pick Up Saves You Money

Hello lovely readers! As the weekend comes to a close, I'm feeling satisfied that I accomplished everything on my to do list and am ready for the busy week ahead. One of the tasks on said list, was to pick up the groceries I ordered from Wal Mart. This was only the second time I have ordered groceries for pick up, and let me tell you, I am never buying groceries any other way ever again, and I have no idea why I didn't do it any sooner! There are so many ways that Wal Mart grocery pickup saves you money, so of course I have to share them! I am The Wanderlusting Penny Pincher after all!

1. It's FREE, need I say more?
2. If you have the tendency to overspend on impulse buys (this used to be a big problem for me)... BOOM. Problem solved. You can't buy what you don't see!
3. It saves so much time, and as we all know, time is money!
4. When you are searching for your products online, you can set it to list the lowest priced items first that are related to your search, which saves time yet again.
5. There's only a $30 minimum.
6. Wal Mart grocery pick up is not limited to grocery items; you can also get deodorant, shampoo, toothpaste, laundry detergent, etc.
7. If they are out of an item you ordered, with your permission, they will substitute it with something similar that's of equal or greater value and they don't charge any extra for it.
8. Did I mention it's FREE?!
9. Shopping at Wal Mart in general saves you money because their prices are unbeatable.* Here are a few examples:

1. Aim toothpaste - $.85
2. Suave deodorant - $1.47
3. 12.5 oz bottle of V05 shampoo or conditioner - $.78
4. Equate mint waxed dental floss - $.87
5. 33 fl oz bottle of Equate alcohol free mouth wash - $2.74 (the same size of Crest Pro Health is around $6)
6. Large loaf of Italian bread from the bakery - $1.00
7. Smart Ones frozen meals - $1.67
8. 18 large eggs - $1.40
9. 1 bunch of green onions - $.88 (currently on sale for $.50!)
10. 1 large bunch of cilantro - $.78
11. 1 large can of Hunts pasta sauce - $1.00
12. 1 box of any Great Value pasta - $1.00

I could go on and on, but as you can see, these are great prices and just as good quality as their name brand counterparts.  Until next time, happy saving!!

*Aldi is a little cheaper on some things, but Wal Mart will price match on like brands. I also think the time saved, as well as the removal of the temptation to impulse buy, makes Wal Mart grocery pick up the best deal, even if the cost still ends up being higher than Aldi (it would only be a slight difference anyways).

"Unplanned" Expenses

A couple days ago, I came across a few spam emails in my inbox that I actually had to read twice to make sure I was seeing clearly! The first one was advertising "personal loans for unplanned expenses." The second one was offering "personal loans to help you reach your financial goals." The third said, "financial help - loans to pay off debt." WHAT?! The idea of going into debt to get ahead financially is so preposterous, I thought it had to be a joke! Well, it is a joke, but the sad truth is that these offers were serious. Seriously misguided. Let's unpack this further, shall we? I want to let everybody in on a little secret. "Unplanned expenses" are no longer unplanned if you...wait for it...plan for them. Of course nobody plans on the inconveniences of life happening, such as car or home repairs, trips to the ER, travel expenses due to the sudden death of a loved one etc. We know somewhere in the back of our minds that these ...

Every Day I'm Hustlin'

Happy New Year, friends!! I took a little holiday hiatus from posting, but I'm so excited to be back at it with more tips to help you get your finances under control in 2018! All of my previous posts have focused mostly on saving and cutting back, but for this post I would like to switch gears and talk about creating more income/opportunity. I like to start with saving/cutting back because it's something that we have direct control over and can be done immediately. Also, as I have mentioned before, your habits and mindset need to be in the right place so that you will be able to properly manage and actually realize any additional income.  So notice a little earlier that I said I wanted to talk about creating more income. I don't just mean getting a different job with better pay. If you land that opportunity and it will truly be better for you in every aspect, go for it! We should always be trying to increase our income and decrease our outgo (expenses), as Dave Rams...
