The in-laws cometh... 10/25/2006

I have finally found the answer I've been searching years for. The final nirvana of every couponer - how can I save more money?


Are you ready?




I was astounded...



Don't go in any stores.

It really works, I swear. I haven't set foot in a store in three days, and for three days my bank account balance hasn't budged a cent. It's phenomenal the way this system works. I bet I could sell it on infomercials at 1AM for three easy payments of $49.95 (or only two payments if you call RIGHT NOW!).

Real life has reared it's ugly head, and I am too tired to stomp it back down. CVS really doesn't have anything for me this week, and I've exhausted the monthly deals. I stocked up on some cheap boneless skinless chicken at Winn Dixie on Saturday, but that's been about it for me. There are a couple things I might pick up this week at Publix, but nothing phenomenal. DH has been packing in the overtime, and I've been trying to get things ready for his parents' arrival on Saturday. My house is a complete disaster, I have an unassembled bed leaning against the wall in my son's room, and I see DH for about 30 minutes per day. WAH! It's a good thing that this has been a slow week in the couponing department, because I couldn't pack much more on my plate. And to top it all off, the batteries in the baby's swing just died. Mothers, you KNOW what I am talking about! Thank heavens for the hurricane stockpile.

It will all work out though...DH and I will pull it all together on Saturday before the plane arrives.

Things may be bleak for retailers if this trend continues...my CVS girls may forget what I look like!

Nah.
