DS is almost seven and is extremely smart. But I'm afraid he is going to take after me and just flat out not want to pay attention.

Today he brought home a 70 and a 75. He's been bringing home 100's with the occasional 95 since school started. All of a sudden he's bringing home 70's and 75's? I don't think so!!!

I spent 1.5 hours working up some worksheets for him to work on. (work work work, could I get any more work in there? LMAO) And I swear the kid is missing...

Okay so I did the math... 35 inserts

175 Chicken Noodle/Tomato Soups (cost oop after coupon and sale is less than $12 for all 175 tho)
70 Other Condensed Soups
70 Soup at Hands
70 Microwavable Bowl Soups

That's a whole lotta soup!!!

Not to mention the 15 $.40/2 I ordered from TCC. That's another 30 Various other soups. :shock5:

Then we still have the 30 $1/2 Old El Paso that I can pair with the b2g1f shells/seasonings coupons....

I'm going through the current trades forum and just imagining (that looks spelled funky lol) all these people at the computer literally begging for coupons.

I am not making fun, trust me I am one of those people, but it's just a hilarious mental picture.

I'm totally LOL-ing at all the ISO's, IDSO's and IVDSO's and IVVDSO's... LOL

I need sleep again. See what happens when I stay up past my bedtime?

Btw, I'm in IVDSO...

that is the number of inserts I managed to scrounge up today. And boy am I exhausted. I hit all the hot spots where I knew the discarded papers would be. In three towns... LOL

I also hit Kroger where I got another 60 items for about $10. Today I got
15 Chicken Noodle Soup
20 Tomato Soup
2 Soup at Hand
2 Microwavable Soups
2 Crescent Rolls
8 Spagettios
1 Hamburger Helper
10 Condensed Soups

Did two transactions...

I've got to plan ds's 7th birthday. It had been waiting for DH to get the OK to get the day off. He got the news yesterday. YAY!!! He got it off. Now to plan... but the kicker... It's only TWO weeks away. We are having the party on Saturday the 22nd. I have no idea what I'm going to do.

He wants to have it at Chuck E Cheese's. But we've already had his 5th birthday there. I'm leaning towards Chik-Fil-A. One of my best friends had her boy's bday there. She said it was cheap...
