Sunday is my rest and
reset day, however I think there was more resetting than resting. Nonetheless, I began my week with a clean
house and all of the laundry done plus leftovers in the fridge so I was pretty
happy about that. It was a great way to
get my week started.
I picked up some loss
leader items on sale at Albertson's for 99¢ each, cereal and granola bars. I stacked paper coupons on top of digital
coupons and ended up with three boxes of cereal, two boxes of granola bars and
a package of cookies for $1.40! Now is
this stuff the healthiest? Absolutely
not, but as an occasional treat for my girls it will be fine. They aren't super big on eating mountains of
sugar laden food so I expect this crap will last a good long time.
Monday morning I actually
woke up sad that January was over because it was such a great month for
us. But February is shaping up quite
nicely too so I'm excited for what is in store for this month. The remainder of the week went by very
quickly and before I knew it, it was already the weekend.
Chocolate and kitty cat stamps from my friend ☺
Friday I got a big surprise
in the mail from one of my readers which really made my day! What a super thoughtful and wonderful thing
she did for me! How can I be so lucky?!
All ready to ship once they sell
Saturday
I worked out in the garage for a bit doing some more purging and
reorganizing. Then I got busy
photographing some more items I wanted to sell.
I sat down and got them all listed as well as packaged up and ready to
ship once they do sell. I think that was
time well spent.
THINGS

soup, bean soup, spaghetti & meat sauce.

THINGS
I DID TO SAVE A SMALL BUNDLE OF $$: I
washed out some Ziploc bags to reuse. Other
than my $1.40 shopping spree on Sunday I didn't do any other shopping. I printed some more coupons from coupons.com to have for future shopping
trips.
THINGS
I DID TO EARN EXTRA $$: I listed five
more things on eBay to sell.
How was your thrifty
week?
