Went to DD's softball game tonight. They won and she did great! I'm proud of her for trying a new sport - she's never even played softball before, and she's 16. laugh out loud

Stopped by a friend's house afterwards to visit and DS managed to fall and bounce his forehead off the pavement pretty good. He has a nice goose egg and road rash already.
That is awesome about your DD. My oldest did softball for a while - she is a great pitcher. Just not her thing though. Frown I wish she would've stuck with it, but... What can ya do?

Comfort Sorry about your little guy!

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.
Good luck with the GS. I'm kind of waiting to see if I can get any help for good friday... I would love to have a sale then.

We got a few good ones (literally these 3 were about it...heck I expect at least 10 out of a good session laugh out loud) but I can't wait 'til I go visit my bro in April; he is going to take her pics and I know she will be soooo much better for him! She has just been giving me a run for my money lately.
These are great. What are you shooting with again? I know you told me, I just have a super short attention span lately.

I have been *this* close to a nervous breakdown all farking day. I started sobbing on the way to soccer tonight. I'm just totally stressed out and I feel like there are 1 million things going on all at the same time. And I totally know that I should shut my pie hole because there are people with real problems out there, but that doesn't help pack my house any faster! I'm having a tasty beverage to settle my nerves!

Here [shelfreliance.com] are the shelves they showed on the show last night. The big ones are pretty pricey, but the cupboard ones are kind of nice?
bff bought one of the small ones at costco and ended up returning it. i think b/c it took up too much room and it's only good if you keep buying multiples of the same exact product. she doesn't believe at all in stockpiling even though she has 4 kids. so all her cans are different sizes and it didn't work for her.

if you are interested and you have a membership or know somebody, they are cheaper at costco.

Quote from setsail :
gg, glad to see that you are starting to feel better! hug And thanks for the hugs. One would think we would have learned our lesson with the last 2 Fords that we had. We had one transmission replacement at 31,000 miles, and it was going out again when we stopped driving it at 108,000. Power steering was also replaced twice before 65,000 miles.

The 2003 van we had died at 62,000 miles. We traded it in on the car dh is driving now. Yeah not the smartest move was it. laugh out loud
thanks for the good wishes sweetie. better is a relative term, but i'll take whatever i can get - i'm so over feeling this miserable and in pain all the time. pass the vodka already, and give me painfree mobility back so i can dance!

i'm all about buying american when it comes to produce, toys, dishes, bags - just don't trust some of the lead/chemicals that goes in to stuff made/grown in china.
but when it comes to cars and massmarket chocolate, i'm never buying american. Nono


Hide

i know i'll get Bonk for saying that, but i'm sorry - no american car manufacturer is getting my business, and nor is toyota. i'll buy a honda or i'll buy a german made car, knowing they'll last forever, protect me in accidents, and give me dollars back even when they're old. and they won't keep breaking down.
as for european mass market chocolates (cadburys, kit kat etc) - less sugar, less fat, no hydrogenated crap, no artificial colors = much more delicious, much healthier.


Quote from ArielA :
Thanks guys! I am trying to take it easy. I am going to start working on Thank You cards and addressing envelopes for the announcements. I figured I will work on them a little at a time, so that way its not so much to do while I am have a newborn.
....
if you don't mind typed envelopes, you can do a mail merge on microsoft word - just copy and paste in a list of names and addresses. pick a font - decorative, script-like, business-like, whatever you want and batch print on the printer. you can have hundreds done in a small amount of time.

congrats again!

Quote from flugette :
I use the metal shelving at Target - goes on sale frequently, so I just waited for a sale and then got mine. They are very sturdy and have never sagged/bulged/etc. The only issue I (and others) have had is that bottles tend to tip over due to the metal grid. But shelf liners or cardboard can fix that easily enough.
go to any grocery store, ask them for the cardboard trays that hold bottles of sparkling water -- they're sturdy enough and big enough to hold 12 1-liter bottles. the trays come shrink wrapped in thick plastic. stores, remove the plastic, shelve the bottles, toss out the cardboard trays. your gain! woot

for those that are in Poland Spring areas just ask for the trays for the Poland Spring sparkling water. does zephyrhills have a 1L sparkling water too? if so, the trays should be similar.

Submitted by onlyethicalcouponers on Fri, 04/08/2011 - 03:20.

A lot has happened since Jill's original post. Got to read this as it sure looks like J'aime committed coupon fraud on TV.

Smart readers took screen shots from your trip and nothin's matchin' up, J'ai'me.

J'a'i'me's shopping list shown on TV shows only the product family code part of the bar code and the dollar amount. Why would someone make a spreadsheet of coupons that might work on other products made by the same company? Well let's see.

To use .75 Fiber One cereal coupons on Kix, Cheerios and Lucky Charms. The .75 Fiber One cereal coupons will scan on any General Mills cereal but they are higher value then the other cereal coupons that were out the first week of February for her trip.

To use Buddig Deli Cuts $1 coupons for 12/16oz. meats for the cheap little 2 ounce Buddig packets on sale for .89 and get them free. Only missing about 10 more ounces of meat plus it is the wrong item.

To use .50 Pillsbury French Bread coupons on the tiny cans of .99 Pillsbury rolls, because the coupons will double to $1 and get them free. Only again, completely wrong product, total fraud.

To use $5-off-2 Nivea Body Lotion coupons on Nivea Body Wash, because the lotion is almost $6 but the body wash is under $3 per bottle. Wrong product again, princess.

What next?

This is only what got shown on TV. What didn't? Hope J'a'i'm'e is ready for a coupon fraud charge.

Thanks, sorry about your day, hope today is better hug That 'overwhelming' feeling (at least that's what I call it!) has brought me to tears quite a bit too....ugh, know what you mean, hang in there, and it's OK to just have a good cry! Sometimes that's just what a person needs!

I am using just the basic Canon Rebel....it is not even the newest version I'm sure as I've had it awhile. And just the lens that came with it.... I'm really a Photoshop junkie. I mean I know if you start with a great pic you'll get better results in the end anyway but you can really take some mediocre ones and make them look amazing. Was soooo mad at myself though.....had the camera set to take .JPEGs from when we used it @ dd's bday party and forgot to set it back to RAW yesterday. It's so much nicer to edit with the RAW images.

If you've arrived here while searching for information on "Extreme Couponing," it might interest you to know that the TLC coupon show was originally supposed to be "America's Coupon Masters," an instructional show intended to teach people the correct ways to use coupons.


I sat on the various FB pages last night just reading and laughing. My favorite post was:

I don't need (nor does anyone on God's green earth) 500 bottles of mustard! I buy stuff on sale matched to coupons and get this...it's actually stuff my family uses! I'd rather buy 4-6 at a time and spread my stockpiling out over 2-3 trips in a shopping week. Scratchhead Insanity I know! Rofl2

Ank, how's MayMay? I had a post sittting on my phone on Tuesday but it was time to push so I never got to submit it! Roll I was just gonna say I have a litany of Doh mom moments so please keep in mind that it was just an accident!

M2C, let it out. Moving is up there on the high stress things in life. Not to mention y'all are on the fast track for the move and have 2 little ones to tend to all day long.

It is nearly 8 and both boys are still snoozing. Jawdrop

That is awesome. Thanks for posting. It dumbfounds me (can that be a verb?) that after all the flak she got after those videos, all the criticism she got for wrongly using coupons, she hasn't changed even a little bit. Well, ok, maybe she left some of the "biggies" out of her transaction, made it a little more "believable" (?), but did she really think everyone who has been attacking her would let anything slide?

Stupidity on this scale never ceases to amaze me.

So...home again with all 3 kids, but thankfully my son is feeling much better. Now here's hoping the two girls don't get it!

Rainy, rainy day. I'm planning on entertaining the kids with movies while I attempt to get the rest of my multitudes of inserts clipped and finally into my binder. Sick and tired of the little piles everywhere!!! Embarrassment
