Spring cleanup
Posted 03-18-2009 at 09:13:30 AM by House_Of_Six
Well it's that time again. Sun is shining on my face, and I am seeing a few spurts of color coming out.
I have a lot to do this Spring. I need to take a good hard look at my home exterior, and interior. What do people see when they pull up to my home.
Do I have all the kids toys in the driveway and landscape? How about my siding? Man does it need some TLC a.k.a. power washer.
My front door and sidelights need a piant job. I need to think about my first garden and what I really will use in the garden, not just plant tons of things that just go to waste.
What about my entryway?
Ok, now my mind is going now about the inside of my home. Going will be the heavy down comforters, and blankets. I will go through everyone one of my four childrens clothing.
Since clearances should be hitting big in Spring in Summer. I will hit those rock bottom prices on jeans, jackets, snow pants, boots (holy cow $15.00 per pr. times 4) And any winter clothing. Better to go bigger then smaller.
Thrift stores will start taking all the warmer clothing out. So now is the time to go to thrift stores. I love to see classic styles that are not too trendy on big sites like GAP, OLD NAVY and then try to piece outfits that look similar at the thrift store.
Also since grilling season is in I will contact companies for coupons for charcoal for our grill.
I did say last summer that I want to invite more people over.Even in these harder times their is usually always enough for extra added guests. That's the beauty of couponing.
Since starting couponing I have been stocking up on things that I can use for fast meals, and meals for many. Sometimes I just have to get creative and learn to use what's on hand. It's the thought that counts!
Well off to chow on some homemade salsa that I made.
Have a great day!
