thrifteh - congratulations. hope you're getting some rest. hope boys were excited to see newest sibling.

Poor thing, I completely missed what happened! :hugs: And congrats and good luck with the home buying!

Thrift, congrats on the new little one!

Nothing much going on here. Dh called me today as I was leaving T, to tell me that his transmission went out. He only has 27,000 miles on his Ford POS. shake head A tow truck is coming tomorrow to take it to the dealership and then the fight begins because they don't want to cover the rental car. I'm OMG at the thought that a 3 yr old car already needs this kind of work. It's still under original manufacturer warranty so they better not fight with us on this.

setsail, hug

transmission failures are fairly common in fords and jeeps. i personally know of 2 fords and 2 jeeps where transmissions failed. all 4 had fewer than 60k miles on em. it's a known issue.

praying that they don't hassle him and get him the rental quick.


love to all of you. i'm hungry, tired (no sleep all night) and in pain. can't decide whether to make breakfast, make a hot water bag, or makeout with my pillow. laugh out loud

EEK!

i guess my body must finally be getting its bearings, seems to have atleast gotten its priorities straight: eat, cuddle, sleep. LMAO

I am reading a thread about last night's show on another forum. Someone there referred to it as their "stalk pile". I found that to be a rather amusing, fairly accurate misspelling. Gotta love a good chuckle with your first cup of coffee.

I, too, turned in early. Still have to watch the 2nd episode of ECand find the FB pages.

Thinkin' of hitting T today, and my new shiny Wags has a $3 off $10 ivc for the Grand Opening so I have to take full advantage of that but haven't read the thread and only glaced the ad but have been getting the Always for 2/$6 - $2qx2 get $4rr, they are out of Colgate, got a few 3/$1 easter crap, and Purex - it didn't work on Milk (didn't know Wags was getting that smart) and got the Pepsi 4/$13 get back $3 but the RR isn't printing so they are price modding it to 4/$10 -$3/$10 ivc = $1.75 a case.

Only comment I am going to make: did anyone else notice that j'aime didn't buy a single p&g item yet almost all of the products in her stockpile room were p&g? I am calling bull$hit. There were so many beeps in her transaction-- the cashier had to press 3 buttons after each coupon!

The lady after her was alright, a little annoying but totally understand couponing for a family of 9. Plus teaching your kids the value of a $1 is important.

Do you all think that TLC gave th 1 shot at a run? If they would re-shoot a segment, no way I'd want them to show me having to call 5 friends in to help. Nono

I think the cashier was manually doing her cpns bcoz the register locked at $1200...

I think the calling 5 friends was just to show what extent cpners can go to..Add drama to their show...

I would really like them to focus on 1 person in 1 show, show her entire run that she is doing..items bought, cpns used etc...

M2C, can we get overage like that at P every week...I would love to get my produce, dairy products for almost nothing...

Drinking coffee. Trying to inhale it but it's not going in so easy that way.

Had a rough night, but hanging in there. I have soooo much to do today - I will probably pop on and off, so I will miss ya'll. Hope your day is great!!

I noticed her shower..full of toilet paper and paper towels and now I know why the need for makeup.

I did notice on her receipt, that she had some high value coupons. I forget the products and the amount, but it was something like $8.00 off and one for $9.00 off. So I am thinking she got some coupons for free items, or even worse.

True. I didn't even think of that. DH watched the show and asked me whether or not I dream about coupons. I lied and said No. Rofl2

Having a GS tomorrow. Excited and nervous since DB tried to talk me out of doing it on a Friday. Typically, Friday is better than Saturday but this is a new location. Hopefully I will prove him wrong. My car is FULL. I planned on doing another run today but I have no idea how I will fit it.

Ank: how is Mavis doing? Thrift: Hope you're home & settled. MOT2: How is DD? Meesh: miss you around here! hug Have a great day everyone!!

Keep a little score pad of how many times you are asked if you are "one of those extreme couponers". Inquiring minds want to know.

One of the other things that irritates me about the shows is when they say things like "I have saved $40,000". Well, no, not really. They might have accumulated $40,000 worth of product, but they didn't "save" $40,000 unless they would have purchased all that stuff even without the coupons.

And having to call in friends to come check out... what's the matter with the camera man, sound man, director, etc... Aren't they people? Oh wait... maybe they are supposed to be invisible and not really there. Suuuurrrre.

gt, you bring up an interesting point - do you suppose this will have a negative impact on those of who do yard sale our excess? Whenever people ask where I get it all from, I always am honest and say I use an obscene amount of coupons. But maybe I should start coming up with a different answer...

I feel like I'm waking up from the dead. Yesterday, I was so sick, I couldn't get out of bed. Hubby stayed home and took care of the kids so I could stay passed out on the bed. I seriously couldn't move, everything hurt so bad. Even threw up the glass of water I had to drink with the meds. vomit

I feel much better today, well enough to walk around at least. But my son is sick, so we are all staying home. Was hoping to make it to the recycling center one last time this week, since I've only picked up 6 sets, but I'm gonna be happy with what I got. Not worth risking vomit mess in the van. shake head

Glad to hear you are settling in, thrift. hug So nice, those first few days after the baby's home. Make sure you give him lots of hugs. And I love the name Noah.

Ank, your littles ones are so precious, and I am so glad you decided to let go of the mommy-guilt. The good thing is - she's so young, she'll never remember this, thus she will never hold it against you. Wink And little ones in their casts are so precious. I have lots of pics of my middle girl child - she was born with a club foot and a new cast every week was part of her treatment. Precious memories.

OK, off to reading and catching up!!
