October 2008 - irishlass Name in real life: Kim Age: 45 ( almost the big 46 ) Home State: born in Illinois......lived in Missouri since I got married (at 17) Marital Status: Married to the same guy for 28 yrs Kids: none:frown: but hubby has kids Pets: none In Her Own Words: Little Known Factoid: I am a major procrastinator. How I ever manage to get the ads posted I havn't a clue.
A fun thing I did....I wanted to learn to scrapbook so I scrapbooked a stuffed monkey for my Grandson. I took the monkey everywhere, McDonalds, Walmart, to work, the bank, dentist, Mount Rushmore. I even dressed him up for halloween and took him trick or treating. When I shipped the book and monkey to my grandson in Germany....I couldn't bear to part with the "original" monkey, so I went and bought a new one and kept the other one. Favorite Money Saving Tip: rainchecks.......you never know when it will be a better deal so be sure to get them. Never pay full price unless you absolutely have to. Budget: no real set budget, I just don't buy if I can't afford it. Stores I shop at: Walmart & of course Walgreens Coupon Organization Method: I file by date, and only clip what I need, unless I know upfront I will use the coupon. I carry a binder with the coupons I will definately use, along with my handy dandy calculator. Best Advice to Newbies: Go slow, and read, read, read. Start small and in no time your stockpile will grow. Ask questions, that is what we are all here for.
