I received a $215.34 rebate check from American Express (Costco).
I am going to put the entire amount into a savings account, as I promised myself.
Compare to my last year’s check ($170.63) I received $44.61 more this year.
But I am not too happy about this. I have a problem with this big check.
Every year, I promise myself that I would spend less money. But my rebate check shows I spent more money last year.
I am a grown man who doesn’t own a house. I really need to get my priority straight and spend less. I must try harder.
Pancake mix, soups, & soaps.
Coupon saved $9.50.
A lot of apples, 5 dozen eggs, a rotisserie chicken, and a bag of tortilla chips.
I used my $40.32 reward check and received $5.78 back.
Boring.. And I want to keep it this way.
I received a 2% executive membership rebate check.
Then American Express will send out their rebate check in February.
This check is redeemable only at Costco.
But, this year, I promised myself that I will put all my rebate checks into a savings account. So, I transferred $40.32 from checking to savings.
*This month, I put $330.00 into a savings account.
First Costco shopping of the year.
I didn’t buy anything special. They were all stable items.
I bought 2 cases of V8 with a coupon. I put them upside down in the cart, so the checkout clerk will scan the UPC codes on the bottoms faster. V8 came out to be about $0.33 for each can*. (FYI: 99 Cents the only store sells V8 for $0.57 a can*)
*Plus CA redemption value
Coupon saved $13.00
