Hi there went to Ikea for more wire shelves to above the insides of doors . We have one inside the laundry room and closets. They come in black or red. I think I saw something similar at Target.We put one shelf above the garage door for my tall husbands shoes. We have never done a garage sale. Our pretencious neighbors would die! Frown I just overloaded the suv with bunch of stuff to gift to the animal shelter. They are having a fund raiser next weekend.
The kids and I just ate a gift that was meant for grandma!OMG yummy I will be in and out of town next week helping her. Thank God I fly free! Now I need to got and get her another yummy food gift. Smilie

Flugette, you know the post office will pick up postmarked items from your home? You can go online and request a pick-up. Only for first class or priority, so if your selling books...you may not use that. Just an FYI...
.
As an added note - as long as at least one of the packages is a priority package you can add as many parcel post as you want. I send out all my *bay this way, bought a cheap scale and use paypal to buy postage.

Going to my ST tomorrow to try and find the 1.99 Tava - hoping that it is still at that price from last weekend. Since I just printed off another 5 to use at my close T and it was at 3.19...

I am a SAHM too. I was working throughout my pregnancy, but when I figured in daycare costs, I would bring home under 50.00 a week. So at home I have been. I have the baby who is 18 mo and a 14 yr old who just started high school.

Im a 31 yo SAHM to 4. Ages 10 in 5th grade, 5 in K this year, 3yo only dd & 21 month old CRAZZZZZZY MONKEY ds.

SD is my INCOME, my dh & I figured it out the in a weeks shopping I save us the same amount of money he earns in 60+ hours of working.

In addition to T CVS WAGS RA W K everyday needs. I also Sd'd 3 vacations so far this year...Im working on SDing a Disney/Orlando trip for spring break. Plus electronics etc that we would not have been able to get oher wise.

My dh is a GM of a causal quick service restaurant chain -- he is paid piddily for he BS he goes thru everyday. I too am only trained in the restauant field where the $$ can be good but you dont know what your geting everyday.

It would COST me $$ to get a job. Plus, after having DS#1 in daycare as a baby/toddler, I am so glad that I get to raise our kids, I wasnt happy with the teachings at daycare.

...we all have to do what we have to do but you can always ask for what you want out of life too. -- you might be surprised to find that YOU hold the universe in your hands & only get what you expect to get out of it.

The problem is I never send anything Priority Mail, always media mail, so that wouldn't work. And I can't use the automated machine either, 'cause you can't do media mail with that. Oh well...

Please tell me I have enough Pop Tarts.

I gave up yesterday after gc didn't come up after ringing up Cheezits..The ones that are 2.04 a box..Had them price check and verified that I was supposed to get gc. I dropped all my coupons on the floor when I returned to the register. Cashier said no to the FFS coupons and then she had to get someone to ok the use of multiply Pop Tart coupons..I gave up..I wanted out..I wasn't exactly sure if all my coupons were in the transaction or not...I left cart..

Now today, I skipped going to Target after work. I am not feeling well. Took a nap and I finally I can get out the door. Aiming for 6 p.m. one store, maybe two...then on to CVS..

I get into car and drive it is 7:45....get to interstate..I just can't...No way,,,car is not a comfortable place to be..I turned around and I am now home..

Right??? 30 boxes of Pop Tarts are enough?? I know a new deal is around the corner. So this is alright not to continue shopping.... I am feeling miserable knowing that I cannot make myself shop. I need to feel better...

Wow, mine must be short too! He is 6'3". I am only 5'3" though, so I am hoping my boys at least get his height!
And yes, BF, please share how you "slickdealed" a way to Disney. That would be my kids' dream vacation!

Hey--reminder--please PM me if you're in MI and sent me strips/lancet package. I need to thank you but no screenname was included. Thx

off in a bit to watch potc3 with dh. he just got gas for the generator. supposed to have heavy winds starting overnight and go straight through. flood warnings, we are in a flood area. we lose electricity here if a tree branch falls so that's our fate!

hope everyone else stays safe. I'll keep someone posted via text, my phone is charging now
Stay safe and dry...still tons of rain here, but we still have power...Wind is picking back up but nothing too bad. The water is coming up over my sidewalk, I'm afraid it's going to start coming into the house if it doesn't stop soon!

Quote from anepu :
i be in chitchat...my targets suck now and I really havent had the time to coupon...so I just read up and if something is worth it I go and do it...Poptarts/RKTs have been good..

Is anyone getting free or very cheap cleaning supplies with any coupons in the inserts or online coupons...It does not have to be target..
Wags has a decent RR deal starting on Sunday
shout, scrubbing bubbles, fantastik, and windex. Buy 9, get $10 RR
There are recent insert coupons for all, and printables for scrubbing bubbles stuff.

Oust is currently 2/$6 at Target. Use B1G1 from the recent inserts and the $2/2 from coupons.com = .50 each
Same deal is available for the oust next week at Wags. No need for the printable as they have an IVC for $1/1 in their September easy saver catalog.

I think it is the liveright online magazine..they were setting up the display at my store today for kashi..
Well..I was going to upload it, but SD is not working fast enough right now. It's in the Target deals paperclip.

Yep...DH is only 6'2". So terribly short.Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)
But...14 year old DS is 6'3"EEK! And per xrays on his ankle last week...definitely not done growing.


DH does not program, unless you count programming the TV remote.LMAO But he does build a nice house.Big Grin

I'm planning a solo (NO KIDS) T trip tomorrow. Come hell or high water (which it very well may be) I am going to Target tomorrow! I have a serious dent to put in some Cinn. Sugar pop tarts and krispie treats!!
