Below, what I brought home today for $10.80 out of pocket: The monthly Unmentionable from Victoria’s Secret, shrouded in pink tissue paper to protect the innocent. A great big pile of library books on sewing, because I love the library and I think it’s completely wonderful that this free resource exists. Our library has free wi-fi and [...] I must say that gift cards are pretty delightful. I went out to run some errands yesterday armed with a coupon for a free McDonald’s smoothie, a coupon for a Free Unmentionable from Victoria’s Secret, and about $8.50 in Rite Aid gift cards. This is what I came home with (minus the smoothie, which I drank [...] OUR FREEZER IS SO FULL. I’d take a picture of the inside of said freezer, but it is frankly embarrassing in its chaos, and besides I’m afraid to open it for very long lest the burritos mount an attack. I’m going to try to get it organized tomorrow. In the meantime, bounty: I made one more Triple Coupon trip with the coupons that came in today’s paper.

It’s Triple Coupon Week! It’s Triple Coupon Week! As I told my husband, last night’s houseguest, a meeting room full of people at work today, and the checkout guy at Harris Teeter itself, I love Triple Coupon Week. This is the first of probably five or six Triple Coupon Week pilgrimages, and [...] As mentioned, the past few weeks haven’t been the most frugal we’ve ever had at Casa Jones. Which is a good thing, because part of the reason you save money when you can is so you can spend it when you need to, and I count post-op recovery barbecue potato chips firmly in the “need” [...] OK. So my plan to stock up on soft foods before my surgery went well, in the sense that I stocked up on soft foods before my surgery, but then again it went not so well, in the sense that after surgery I was high on painkillers for days and kept demanding — sweetly! always [...] “That’s good,” the lady at the checkout said to me when she saw my haul. “You are eating healthy!” I was absurdly proud. OK, yeah, there are some instant mashed potatoes there. But look at all that veggie goodness! |
