Although he did run and hide when I got a brand new cashier who didn't understand how to ring the free coupons

I went right after I got off about 5:30. I wasn't to enthused but you did great spare! I did get the coupon so I could go back on sunday and get my 10% off..(I think it's through Sunday) I wasn't prepared with coupons and all so I just didn't feel like messing with it tonight. I did get the 8 ears of corn for $2.00 and had a catalina for $1.50 so only paid .50 for the corn. I headed to Kleins and got a couple of their deals. I bought the wolf chili that was $1 no q's on that. DH will only eat that kind though and I did the boneless skinless breast for $1.99/lb. I had 2 .55 off q's and so I didn't do to bad there. I think I would of had more fun if I had someone to go with but I was by myself it was kind of boring. lol

DS and his girlfriend are out there now. DH went, I had a job interview and once done didnt feel like driving down to Tomball from Lake Conroe. DH is at Kroger and said he was going to head over to Lowe's.

Too funny! I made a Target run at about that time so I was there in spirit!

I was so disappointed with the Tomball night. I didn't see any great things either, not all stores were perticipating, and they didn't have any great sales. I have been to a Tomball night to where there were tons of sales and things were going cheap. I think alot of it had to do with it wasn't on the Tax free weekend so they didn't expect a big crowd.

I did get to get a few good deals, nothing to really brag about. The biggest thing I got to brag about is that I got to meet one of our fellow ladies on here.... Jessica. She is a very sweet lady. I think I was more exciting about finally meeting someone from here then I was about getting things for cheap or free....Yall have to meet her.

Well thank you Mommybdj, I enjoyed meeting you as well and look forward to the coupon swap and meeting more people....... also look foward to seeing a 'pro' in action. DH is starting to think that I have joined a cult......lol. I said "no, we don't have a leader".... he said "yes you do it is the almighty $".... He quickly corrected with "I am sry the almighty 'saved' $". :) I thought it to be very funny, he actually LOVES the $$ we are saving, along with all the name brands.

I felt your "shoppin' vibe" as I drove by

BTW when is the Tax-Free weekend? I agree Im sure the fact that both werent happening maybe made a difference. I remember last year it started getting "busy" around 530pm and didnt let up for a few hours. Gosh I remember when we first moved to Tomball we lived in the apartments behind the Ortho. Clinic and cars were parked on the side of the road and people walking everywhere. It was actually pretty fun walking around and seeing all the tents set up.

The tax free weekend is August 15-17
