This is the kind of shopping that works for me! Razor blades are always a grudge purchase, as they are just so overpriced, it is frankly quite scary if you disike being hairy :-0
Hows the rhyming there, LOL! I’m having a relaxed sunday morning this side of the world and enjoying reading your current story in your journey of financial fitness and ultimate freedom.
I hate having to pay money for stuff like shampoo…… i wouldn’t mind getting that kind stuff for free lol
This CVS extra care bucks system seems like a great way to save money. I agree that razor blades are far too expensive. At some drug stores they even have an alarm on the razor blade section to prevent shop lifting.
