Had a good shopping trip yesterday. Nice cashiers that did not mind coupons and a shopper in line behind me that was hoping I had coupons so she could see how much I saved. It was a joy to check out.
I have enough Playtex tampons from Target and Kotex U from Wags that I should be safe in a small flood.
Yay for a good shopping and a nice checkout.
It's Monday.... yawn. Why is it that I wait until I have no clean clothes (that fit) to wear before I do laundry? I was up too late last night waiting on the dryer, probably because I didn't start doing the wash until late.
I think not having clothes that fit can be a great problem. But, I hear ya on the laundry.. I would often run out of clean clothes if it wasn't for DH. He works from home 2 days a week and on those days, he is great to get up first thing, and start the wash while he works. I
I am hoping to lose a few more pounds so that I can get some new clothes to wear for summer..
And :hug on the hubby working so much. I think they don't understand how difficult it is for us until they walk a mile in our shoes. I'm going to be going to MI for my dad's surgery in a couple weeks, and hubby will have the kids for 3 days. By himself. They'll still be in school, so he'll have that whole routine to do. By himself. I'm kinda looking forward to it, in an evil sort of way.
Morning, everyone! Enjoying my mug of coffee from DD this morning. They had a cup that you could get .99 refills of reg. coffee until April 30, so you can bet I'm getting at least 2 today!
For some reason, i always get kinda worried when I have a sale. Too many weird stories about people getting shut down and fined for selling new items. I have saved all my receipts. Our town is so small (3500 population) that I don't even think we have any kind of Sale codes. Anyways, my Uncle is on the License commitee and has came to my sales every time and never mentioned anything so I assume I am okay.
I am supposed to be getting ready for a sale this weekend, but I just can't get motivated to have one like I used to. I only have about 3 a year but just get tired of the same ole' people asking the same ole' questions and me giving the same answer. lol Usually my DH sits with me and fends off the weirdo's but he will be working so it will be just me and DD. It seems like soo much work anymore. Luckily we have a building we get to set up in so being inside helps. I can set up a little all week while keeping the doors closed.
My goal is about $600 (or $663 to be exact LOL). We will be open friday evening for a few hours and then Sat morning until about noon. That is the amount we have left to save for our lowest disney budget. We have another 'budget' number we would like to reach but we need 'at least' that much to hit our first goal. Then the more we save after that, the more extra things we will get to do. We would like to add a couple of days, plus we need Universal ticket money. So far we have saved enough money and GC's and have not had to touch one penny in our savings account. Huge success for us!! I also will have about $1000 in emergency cash in my checking to use for just that..an emergency. Sooo, so far things are looking good on that front.
DS tells me that he has misplaced (uhh lost) his marching shoes so will have to pay $20 for a new pair. He says he gave them to me when we were at a parade during Dec. but I can't remember that far back. LOL
Hope everyone is having a great start to another week!!
I can sympathize on the sale though..We used to do a few each year, but now I just hate it.. It is so much work to me. I told DH I would rather work a few more hours at my job, lol.. Last time I just worked a deal with a local guy at the flea market. I sold him a ton of stuff for cheap. I ended up with 325.00 when I could have probably gotten 500.00 for it, but I didn't have to sit in the sun and haggle with people all day either!
I worked so much over the weekend that it wasn't funny.. But, I think I will end up with an extra 1100.00 or so.. I am booking me a few days at the beach with the money. I told DH we deserve it for how hard we have both worked lately. And now I won't feel guilty about spending the money.
Came home from a long day at work yesterday and my youngest had a fever.. I forced fluids on her and she seemed better by bedtime..Woke me up coughing at 4 am and coughed so much she threw up in my bed
another reason i stopped cvs'ing. in the beginning it was good stuff like toothpaste and body wash. but then 2-3yrs ago all the faecb stuff became stuff i didn't need or want and my mom didn't want it either and any overage was being burned off and even costing me w/ higher gas prices.
if i had to pay full price for my groceries i think i'd end up shopping at walmart more often
out of the 13 items, i had 8 coupons, 4-.30 yoplait lactose free yoghurt ip's which doubled to make them free and 4- .75 nut thins which were also on sale for 1.99 so .49 after doubled q's.
if i had to pay full price for yoghurt i certainly would buy it as much and yoghurt is good for you.
and i like salty snacks so i'd probably end up w/ cheaper lower quality snacks or not buy any at all.
I used 40+ Revlon coupons today, between Rite Aid and Target, and I'm about shopped out.
And HD, thanks for the reminder about the Playtex! I used up my qs on those today, too. There weren't any TQs, right? Just the BOGOs?
And photos, I have to say, my sale on Saturday seemed to bring all the riffraff out, but in the end, it was definitely worth it.
I have just come to the conclusion that if the parents aren't going to tend to their own children, then I will do it for them. And I won't be particularly the nicest person, either.
But like I said, it was definitely worth it in the end. Broke my last record in sales, so I was happy.
Oh Flug...Sometimes I don't know which is worse the kids or the parents! Some people uggh! When I used to have the sales at my house, the parents would just let their kids go play in my 'play yard' where we had all our little tikes jungle gyms and swings and such. Just so they could look without having to deal with their own kids. And of course the brats would tip them all over and had no respect for anything. It would drive me insane. AND we have a privacy fence all the way around our house. I finally started locking the gates.
Now my dad has bought a building (used to be an old lumber business) up town. He just uses for storage and it is HUGE. So he lets me set it up in it. Works great.
But let me tell you, if there is riffraff out that day, they all seem to find my sale. But as you said, it is usually worth it.
I find it kinda funny, cause those are the ones that spend ALOT of money. Makes me wonder where they get the extra to spend on stuff. But I happily take their money!!
Sharon - is it already time for a new baby?

Sharon - is it already time for a new baby?
from dreemedayze posts in the deals thread, I think she had hers
She is better, thanks! She hasn't been sick anymore and her temp has been normal today, but she still has a cough.. I don't know what it is, but someone in this house has had a cough for weeks. Took my youngest son to the doctor last week and they put him on antibiotics for a sinus infection.. He still sounds really stuffy nose and his ears are clogged and has been on the meds 5 days.. I have a cough off and on.. and now my oldest daughter sounds yucky too! We need to lysol the house or something.. or maybe a nice rainstorm to wash away some of the icky pollen..
And, yes.. my baby is growing up way too fast!
Since my DD was feeling better, I went in to work this afternoon.. took the morning off to be with her, but left her with DH this afternoon so I could work some. Glad to be home now!
Good luck! Can't wait to see baby pics
Morning everyone
I tell ya, I wish my family could shake all this cold/cough mess.. I couldn't sleep and read in my bed until about 2 am when I got sleepy. Turned my kindle off and was about to drift off when my DD came and got into the bed.. She was restless and coughing. I tried to sleep but couldn't, so I left her and DH asleep and I went to the couch. They I was wide awake again. Watched tv until a little after 3 am. Then, I could hear my DS downstairs coughing.. Ugh, finally drifted off around 3:30.. my DD was in the living room at 6:15 wide awake telling me she had been up "all night". Apparantly she had been bothering my DH for ever an hour.. poor guy headed out to work a few minutes ago looking exhausted. Said he didn't get much sleep and now he is getting a cough too.. plus, he is supposed to be singing at a funeral tomorrow. I am praying he gets better! As tired as I am, I think I will suck it up and let him go to bed really early tonight and get some rest.
And, I don't have any idea how my 4 year old keeps going. DH said she didn't fall asleep until late last night.. then she was up by 5 this morning.. now, she is playing, laughing, and acting like she is in a great mood.
Gonna be a long day! But, atleast I am up early.. maybe I can get something done. I am thinking about maybe a Kohls and Target trip today..
hard rain woke me up last night.
good luck to sharon and hope everything goes smoothly.
