SOOOOOOOO...good evening my friends.........Bob, sorry part of your weekend got skunked, but at least you got a little time to relax...yuck on croup, that stinks
Mac, the malls were crowded today, but we made it. We left the house at 8:30 a.m. and got back home at about 8:45 p.m........now how is THAT for marathon shopping

You all would have been proud, we worked those deals and coupons at most every store we went. I had 3 coupons for Yankee Candle, they let me ring up 3 times and use each of them...I got a boo-koo of stuff and saved like $40. They also had a deal, buy a gift card and get a free candle, so we bought the gift card, got the freebie, then turned around and used the gift card towards our purchases

If you bought stuff at Bath & Body you got a gift card for $10 off of $30, so my friend bought stuff, handed her $$ off card to me, I got to use 2 of those, so that was $20 off, and then I gave her my gift card that I got back to her. We even bought gift cards in TGIF's to get the $5.00 eat later card, then used the gift card to pay for our snack.......we just thought we were all that and a bag of chips today

I got a lot of my shopping done...and we hit just about every conceivable store in sight. I'm so tired, but it was worth getting a lot of it done. It was busy too...we went to Hagerstown which we don't usually go to, so it was a little bit longer drive, but well worth our time. We actually had fun together, we've not shopped together in a long time. I found an awesome purse (I like to 'gift' myself when Christmas shopping

) that was $148 and I got it for $50....it will last me forever or until I get tired of it.....
So, I'm off to bed, between last night out and today running around, I've had it..........see ya tomorrow......
