Two big bags of salad for $2.85 (they were buy one get one free)
Six packages of Tofurky tempeh, normally $3 a package, on sale @ two for $3
One $3 package of guac (which was obviously less of a deal, but still tasty)

Was it the Maple flavored tempeh? That's the one that's helped me make my peace with tempeh. We were bitter enemies before but this maple stuff ain't so bad.

I bought more Gardein today. I got two more bags of Teriyaki Chicken strips for only $2. I also got:
3 bunches of kale for 99 cents
1 jar of store brand pb which was free with a store coupon
2 packs of Extra gum- free w/coupons
3 tubes of toothpaste - free w/ coupons
1 bottle of French's spicy mustard- free w/ coupons

big box of Emergen-C peach passionfruit flavor- not one of their best flavors
Big Lots was having a 20% off sale so I got them for more than half the price that regular stores sell them for.
 
I went to SanSai Japanese Grill and got dinner:

10 pieces veggie roll
2 vegetable spring rolls (which were too greasy and I won't get these again)
veggie tempura
pan-fried noodles
edamame

More than I usually order because i actually wanted some leftovers. I ate half the veggie rolls, the spring rolls, the veggie tempura, and put the rest in the fridge for tomorrow. I also asked for a side salad, which is supposed to come with the veggie rolls, but somehow the girl behind the counter didn't hear me and didn't put any salad in the container. I didn't discover this until I got home with the food. There was plenty of other food, but I was looking forward to the salad, too. :( Next time I buy food there I'm going to make sure they know I want salad.

Cost me $21.30 plus I put a couple of dollars in the tip jar.

Have you all seen the new collaboration with Tegan and Sara with Keep Company?! That was my last purchase. Both pairs. BOOM.

Wet n Wild eyeliner and mascara- they were only $1 with coupons and they are accidently vegan. I just hope they work and don't suck like some other cheap vegan cosmetics.
Also a jar of Vlasic Garden Variety Garlic Flavored pickles and two jars of relish.

I hear you on the cosmetics. I have practically given up on wearing makeup because some of the vegan ones are so expensive. A lot of mascara, vegan or otherwise, irritates my eyes. Let me know how the WnW works out, if you could. Maybe I will try that next.

Oh, and ETA:
I bought some vegan B12 vitamins and a vegan shirt that says "Vegan because I care" and it has a picture of a cow with a calf and a couple of pigs. It's so dang cute, and it was on sale at veganessentials.com :)

Did you clip the coupon for the Vlasic pickles, too?

I went to Target on Tuesday and used the coupon to get Vlasic FG kosher dill pickles. Also got blueberries, carrots, a couple bags of salad mix, a box of Celestial Seasoning Candy Cane tea on clearance, and with a coupon. Plus some other stuff.
 
Excuse my ignorance, what could be non-kosher about pickles? I only know one jew and he's non-practising, they don't tend to live round here.

I last bought 3 books off amazon, ooops! followers of the "what are you reading" thread will be glad to know they are all new, i've been put off used books for a while.

Will do. I like that E.L.F. is vegan and ridiculously cheap, but I hate their eyeliner and mascara. The mascara clumps like crazy and the eyeliner is very light and doesn't stay on long.

The shirt sounds cute! It sends a great message and hopefully will make some people think.

Of course I used the Vlasic coupon for the pickles! :D

The Celestial Seasonings Candy Cane is one of their best teas imo. It's especially good with chocolate almond or soy milk.

Today:
I had a Barnes and Noble gift card that I got for Xmas so I used it to buy: Vegan For Her by Ginny Messina. I had a few dollars left on the card so I got a tea from their café. I only go to Barnes and Noble about 1-2 times a year, but I always get a tea from the café because it's always boiling hot. It's so disappointing when I get a coffee or a tea from somewhere and it's luke warm or slightly hot. I need my tea to be scorching hot.

Petrol €30 and groceries at the local hypermarket €38.

Every time I see the word "hypermarket" I keep thinking "hyperdrive" and it calls up mental images of you going shopping with the Jetsons at a very futuristic supermarket floating in orbit above the Earth and then whooshing back to Earth in a spaceship. All very 1960's. And you wearing a totally Mod miniskirt. :p

My daughter uses the wet n wild mascara and likes it. She said it doesn't last as long, but it's so cheap it doesn't matter. And this girl loves her mascara, it's pretty much her only makeup most of the time (blonde eyelashes).

Good to know. I'm hoping it doesn't irritate my eyes. I'm going to give it a shot.

The best mascara I've ever tried is Blinc which was recommended by a VBer. It's not cheap (£18 a tube for me), but it doesnt irritate my eyes and I found my contact lenses can now be worn for much longer so to me it's worth the money. It coats your lashes in little plastic tubes so there is no flaking, genius.

I last bought 2 pints of diet pepsi, some chunky chips, and a £2 pub quiz fee. We lost miserably haha

I actually really like the elf mascara. I think it's a volumising & length one & it's very cheap.
