Welcome to the $10 Per Week Stockpiling Challenge! If you’re just joining us, you can head over HERE to read the first post and see what we are up to. In a nutshell, we have challenged ourselves to fill our pantry with a 6-12 month supply of select items using coupons, and a $10 budget every week. Details of our journey can be seen on our Pinterest page.
I took the week off from shopping last week, and set aside my budget of $10 along with the $4.06 I had left over from the previous week. Along with my budgeted $10 for this week, I have $24.06 to spend. I also managed to get another $5 Beauty Club ECB.
You might be wondering why I didn’t take advantage of the great deals on laundry detergent this week. Well, I have decided NOT to purchase any more detergent with my stockpile money. I have two children with sensitive skin, and they have been breaking out in rashes, despite my best efforts to separate their clothing from the rest. After seeing my youngest with a big itchy rash on his tummy today, I said enough is enough. I will go back to making my own laundry soap so I know exactly what I’m getting.

The Kios, Fiber Smart and Nice Sparkling Water were not on my stockpile list. I purchased them because they were either money makers, or filler items required to complete my purchase. Fingers crossed that we’ll have a great sale at Walgreens next week so I can use up my Register Rewards!
