Just picked up (5) 12-packs of Diet Mt. Dew. No problems using the $1 Pepsi One coupons on the deal. But, no Holiday Help at the registers today, and got sorta shut down on my Glade. She let me use 2 coupons, but told me that she couldn't take more than 2 since they weren't ringing up right. Oh well.... I will have to go back to night time trips, and maybe just hit the weekends hard.

Hey-ya!

Just out of curiosity, have they ruled out your gall bladder? I had mine out about five years ago and those attacks were excruciating (almost like childbirth, I guess, per a couple of good friends who have done [suffered] both). Also, how about a kidney stone? I hear they can be pretty farkin' painful, too...

Sorry to hear you're down; hopefully the GI guy will be able to tell you something!

Feel better, so you can get back to, er, normal...

Stupid @$$ gall bladder. i really hate mine...thank goodness it's coming out on Monday.

Which glade coupons did you use? I was told no more than 1 like coupon on glade last night. However, a call to glade this morning confirmed what I thought that it is 1 coupon per item (purchase), not one per transaction. But they said they can't tell the store how to interrupt their coupons or even that they take them, so that kinda sux.

Thanks for the insight! If I wear a size 3 to 5 do you think a size 27 is big enough for me, or do I need a 28? I am thinking a 28, but the jeans I liked of course at Tobi.com were all out in a size 28, so I went with the 27. I ordered a few pairs of True Religion jeans that I thought were really cute during the 30% sale over BF, plus of course I bought thought a cash back website for that extra rebate.

I had to get 27's, because no 28's and I thought 29 might be to big. Of course the extremely cute 7 jeans were out in all the sizes except 31, so I was bummed. I figured if they don't fit I will send them back, and if the 27 are way to small (and I can't smash into them

!) maybe I could fit in the 29 that is left in one of the True jeans. Exchanges are free, and returns just cost $5 with a prepaid label. So I figured for $5 shipping (shipping to me is free) it was worth a try to get 30% off these insanely highly priced jeans, that I could never otherwise justify buying. These will be an early christmas present from my DH if they fit!

PS if I don't quit eating these delicious shortbread cookies box after box, I sure won't fit into them!

I think they should fit you. My jeans are all size 3 or 5 too. I have one pair of jeans that are sized by measurement and I swear I think they are 27's.

I saw a cat who was the twin of Ed at petsmart in their adoption center last month... every marking looked the same and there was that mischief twinkle in his eye too. Oh how I wanted to adopt that one, I stared at him for a long long time.

Did you lick the window?

We adopted our kitty from Petsmart

best personality kitty I have ever met. She is such a blessing

I wish I could take them all home when I see them there!!!

That is one of my biggest struggles... getting in and out of petsmart (to buy food for my 2 fur-babies) and not adopting all the kitties in there.

Since we're talking about cats, I'll share something that made me cry this AM... there is this little kitten that we've been watching grow up for the past couple months outside of a house next to my boys' school. Cute little thing. Always munching on a slice of lunch meat or licking it's paws. (I was tempted to anonymously leave some Goodlife and Tidy Cats next to their door...) I've been worried about the kitty b/c the school is on a busy street, and this morning my worst fears for the kitty were true

I'm just glad DS didn't see him.

Nah, this was just a case of the coupons attaching to the wrong things, so it freaked her out. No big deal, I still came out fine.

awww poor kitty, that makes me sad too

Know what else makes me sad, people talking about wearinga sz 3 jeans, sigh, I will never see that number again. I am still blaming it on the kids, never did lose that baby weight.

And of course I am going out tonight to find a semi-formal dress for a Christmas party, I have a feeling I will be disapointed

Thanks I hope they fit. I figured it had to be a 27 or 28, so it will be close. I look forward to some new jeans as all of mine are old, and I have never had a pair of jeans this good. I bought some Baby Phat pants early this year on sale, but they are tight since I got them, kinda funky fitting and I'm not sure about the cat on my bum anymore. I wanted ones with simpler pockets, but stylish. I ordered these ones!

http://www.tobi.com/product/9264-...r_id=10955

http://www.tobi.com/product/12571...r_id=14790

Those are so cute and of course after my discounts I am only paying about $150 a pair. Still a big rip, but I am spoiling myself for the first time ever! The most I have spent on jeans in the past is like $60 after discounts or rebates, and that was my Baby Phat jeans, besides that $25-35 is usually about what I pay. I have found some awesome deals at yard sales for nearly new nice jeans.

I found a pair of Baby Phat once for $4

and premium Levi's $4 (not the kind even at Macy's, but the kind maybe at Lord and Taylors or Norstroms or something) at a yard sale once. They are so cute, but they are skinny really skinny 3's. I think I will be selling these at my yard sale, since my eldest daughter is taller and one size bigger than me, so they won't fit her. I'm sure I can easily still get what I paid for them, and I bought them 2 years ago! So that was a slick deal.

These are the jeans I really wanted, but no sizing for me!

http://www.tobi.com/product/7961-...or_id=9371

http://www.tobi.com/product/6116-...or_id=7024

http://www.tobi.com/product/9982-...r_id=11770

Oh well maybe I find some deal on 7's some other time.

In your suggestion of jeans these are really cute to! I considered them, but ended up going with the others, because of the bootcut pictured from the side. Well we'll see how good a guide that picture the first few pictures are.

http://www.tobi.com/product/7830-...or_id=9237

Good God I am small and that model in the True jeans is wearing a size 25 in one shot and a 26 in another shot. She is 5' 9" with a 25 inch waist. Tall and very skinny like a super model I guess.

I am 5'4" with a 27 inch waist, 35 inch hips and a lot more on the top than her, so I would say I am built rather different than her!

You know, after looking at the first pair (very cute by the way) I'm thinking that if that skinny bitch has a muffintop in those jeans, what chance do I have??

I am so sorry. We are big pet lovers too. 4 years ago a man was buying our dbunny for $20 for snake food!

We offered him $40 and then spent over $150 on bunny stuff. I used to think bunny people were weird. One foster mom here has 3 bunnys and they have there own room. We got on rabbit.org to learn all we can. Yeah.. dbunny has his own room, condo ,cat towers,tubes,toys etc... we are suckers ... He is litter box trained and rules our ddoggie. He is alpha bun for sure!

It is unfortunate that he sheds 3 x per year because I am very allergic to that hair. You would have a coronary if I told you how many HEPA air filters we now have all over the house etc. He has 2 in his area too. He is such a smoocher. We would never consider getting rid of him. He is a keeper. I need to upload some photos of him sitting on 17.8 year young ddoggies belly . They adore each
other. Ddoggie is blind now . He gets around well for his age as long as no T bags are in his path... to trip on.... Thanks to all who share their lives w/pets..whether it be living w/them, caring for them at a shelter, donations etc.. I applaud you.

Most people can help themselves but animals cannot.
