I am broke but I need a WDW fix

[Gisele]

I still say hold your dh to his words!
That is great that you have a part time job, if you do not mind sharing, what kind of work will you be doing? and I was still wondering if you had thought about doing child care in your home? or going to the families home, to do so.

Keep up the great work!

well I just got a 50.00 gas card (we refinanced our cars and dh and I both got a card for 50) I can use this card for gas while in fl .....but no.. dh said well then I am not putting gas in the car for home. . I will work on that. I might just use it for gas to the airport .
I also just got a free 20 oz coke zero coupon (from my coke rewards) I am saving that for my trip.
I also got a free coffee mate creamer coupon (I have no idea how I got this it just came)
I wrote to chef boyardee and ask them for some coupons and they sent me to at 50 cents each.. I thought that one day for lunch I could make it. .. This is a treat because I never buy it.

Later today I am going to swap some free stuff with my mom .. I will let you know if I get something good..

Good going Stahs!

You should be able to use your gas card however you best see fit! that was not very nice of your dh, to say that!
Am looking forward to seeing what good things that you were able to trade with your mother.

Just found your report today & I congratulate you on your money saving ideas. I wish I was as frugal as you, I probably would not have as much credit card debt(mostly from WDW trips). Oh well, what can I say I'm addicted to the mouse & must go no matter what it costs.

He said he did not care how I used it. I think I am using it for gas to get to the airport 2 hour drive

Did you make any good swaps with your mom?

Since you are having to redo your roof, maybe you can convince DH to let you check a few bags at the airport so you can save some money on groceries and such.

Hi i am loving reading how to save for trip how do you get free coupons id espicially love some free blue bunny ice cream with several kids we get through a lot of it never find coupons i give up on the sunday paper very rarely has any i use thanks

 

[Gisele]

Now how did I miss the part about the roof? for I so diligently read this thread. I say, roof, you can wait until we come back, o.k. so hopefully it can. I am thinking someone has the inside poop, as it were, that might explain, my being in the dark, about the roof.
Seriously, if you need a new roof, I hope that you can get a great price on it, and have the work finished before the rain season hits.
How did your trading go with your mother? I hope that you got something pretty darn cool and useful.

I called Blue bunny and complained about the sugar free ice cream. Every time I eat it I have major stomach cramps. So I called and gave them all the product info.

 

[stahshee]

My mother gave me some great free-bees. I did get some perfume and body wash samples which I will save for stocking suffers

For my trip my mother gave me 2 coupons @ 2.00 each for Jennie-0 turkey products. I might be able to purchase something for dinner.. Any Ideas??

also she gave me Red-kin shampoo, conditioner, and hair gel samples that are perfect for traveling..( I must have missed that free sign up)
also she gave me some Gillette body wash for my dh to use on our trip.

also my dh bought me a 10$ gift card to Dunkin donuts for Disney . I was shocked that he was planning for our trip.(I was so happy that he was thinking about our trip )

 

[Gisele]

It sounds like you did very well with your trading, most definitely good going!
What about your roof? will it be o.k. for the rainy season? or will you be having the work done, before you leave.
How is your new job going? I hope that no one is driving you nuts at your work place.

Do you have any other problems when you eat sugar free things? I did some reading after I got an upset stomache after using Splenda, and what I read was that it can cause stomach cramps.

Sorry, that was my bad. I went back and looked and it is siding not the roof. (Hey, at least I new it had to do with the outside of the house ).

 

[strmtroopr96]

Just wanted to stop by and say that the siding looks really nice! Drove by today and noticed it.

 

[Gisele]

O.k. now, and hey wait a minute, if Stahs lives in Northern Ca. then I can take a look at it too!

I just earned a 5$ Subway gift card from Coke rewards and a free bottle water coupon. (A friend gives me the points , so this is total profit)

 

[Gisele]

Oh my goodness! Stahs, another gift card, once again, you are the Queen of gift cards! I wish I was! I currently have a big fat zero, oh well! that is just how it is, I feel so left out. he he!
