Today I paid $0.00 out of pocket for $31.96 worth of items.

I used the gift card from before so my items were not totally free in the true sense of the word….but I did not have to use cash or a credit card or a check to pay for them.

Transaction 1

Item: Secret antiperspirant (yeah I sweat a lot…or used to, before this…so go ahead and laugh if you want to.)
