CVS 1/29

I'm upset with myself over this trip.  I misread the CVS ad this week and thought I was going to get a much better deal on the Fusion ProGlide razor than what I did.  Ugh!  I guess I need to quadruple check myself next time.  Oh well, I still didn't do too bad all in all.

1 Cadbury Egg $0.87 (These are my favorite!)

2 Puffs Plus $1.76 (Used a $1/2 coup) = $0.76

2 Dawn Hand Renewal $1.96 (Used two $0.50/1 coups) = $0.96

1 Regular Dawn $0.98 (used a $0.50/1 coup) = $0.48

3 American Greeting Cards $2.97 (used a $2/3 coup) = $0.97

1 Gillette Fusion Proglide razor $12.99 (used a $5/1 coup) = $7.99

Used $4 in ECBs I had from a couple of weeks ago.

Total - $9.48 and I received $3.87 in ECBs to use next time.

YTD savings - $86.23

Garlic Cheddar Biscuits (Like Red Lobster!)

These are fairly inexpensive and super super easy to make.  They taste wonderful!

2 cups Bisquick
2/3 cup milk
3/4 - 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup butter
1/4  teaspoon garlic salt
garlic salt, to taste

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
2. Combine Bisquick, milk, cheddar cheese, and a generous sprinkling of garlic salt until a soft, sticky dough forms.
3. Drop by good sized mounds onto a lightly greased baking sheet.
4. Bake for 6 to 8 minutes or until golden brown.
5. While the biscuits are cooking, melt butter and 1/4 teaspoon garlic salt in the microwave.  Mix well.
6. As soon as the biscuits come out of the oven, brush the tops with the garlic butter mixture.
7. Sprinkle light dusting of additional garlic salt over top.
8. Serve warm!
