My wife and I have had a friendly competition since I’ve taken over the Rite Aid deals this year. On Saturday night we both sit down with our ads and computers, scouring the blogs for the deals of the week. We take our pen and calculators to come up with the best deals and we work tirelessly to spend as little as possible. Since I’m such a math geek and keep track of everything, I decided to see who would win the match during February, the Frugal Husband doing Rite Aid Rebates or...

Jack in the Box is running a decent promotion today on their new grilled sandwiches. Today only, if you buy a large drink they will give you a FREE grilled sandwich. There is no coupon necessary for this deal. I figure that a large drink probably costs between $1.99-$2.49 so it’s a pretty good deal.

Tomorrow, February 20th is FREE Pretzel day at Auntie Anne’s. You can receive a FREE original or Cinnamon Sugar Pretzel between 10-3 p.m. I’m not sure I’m going to go to the mall just for a free pretzel, but I’m very tempted!

If you own one of these Swiffer WetJet’s, you will realize that they are not very frugal. It costs about $20 to buy a starter kit, $5 for additional cleaning solution, and another $7 for cleaning pads. These are not the most sturdy or long lasting machines, but they do work pretty good. Recently we decided to splurge and we bought the Swiffer Cleaning Solution. When my wife went to use the WetJet, it stopped working! So we had two options, we either buy a ...
