While perusing Ocean State Job Lot yesterday, I saw these AWESOME indoor/outdoor rugs. They have so many colors, sizes and shapes, all for super cheap! Now the sign says “Outdoor”, but I’m totally using them inside. They’re made from that jute/plastic type stuff and are full on bomb proof. They’re water/spill proof and super lightweight and […]
This morning after dropping my daughter off at school, I went across the bridge to the Brewer Goodwill on Wilson Street. I needed to find some long-sleeved tops for my 18 year old. There was a sign on the door that I hadn’t seen before. Dollar Mondays? That was new for me so I went […]
So last week, Target announced that they’re getting rid of gender specific signage and displays in different areas of their stores. Why? Because people got offended that the girls toys had their own section in pink decor and boys had their own in blue. The same for bedding options. The signs read “Girls bedding” and “Boys […]
I stopped in at Target because that’s what I do every day to do a quick browse and found some really great clearance items. They’re getting rid of winter stuff left and right! They’ve got some women’s coats for 70% off at $11 and change, sweaters, long sleeved tops, and tons of jeans. I found a […]
If you have the $10/3 Bayer products coupon from last weekends 1/4 SmartSource, there’s more than one way to take advantage of it if you’re at Walmart today…do try to get in there today because the coupon expires 1/11. The big deal to use this coupon on of course is the Bayer. Walmart has certain […]
Do you guys ever struggle with how much to give your children on Christmas? You know…how much “stuff” is enough? My girls are pretty good about picking just one main gift that they want the most, and then I add some fun filler items to round it out. But this year we seem to have […]
So I don’t have any children that believe in Santa any more. This sort of kills me. Last year, Mad had just turned 11, and while she pretty much knew..she still wanted to believe. This year, with the girls at 17 and 12…it’s all over. Mom is Santa. With Hallee being autistic, she has always […]
Yeah, so..it’s coming. You guys know how I feel about it. Black Friday. BLERGH. What a mess. For someone who for all intents and purposes provides for her family by shopping, you’d think I’d be all insane and planning for BF. Well I’m not. I don’t care if crap is free, I’m not leaving my […]
Halloween is my favorite holiday…second really only to my birthday, which I celebrate for the entire month of March. (March 12. I like chocolate cake and silver jewelry…get busy) Halloween brings out the kid in me and the girls and I start decorating the house and the yard on October 1. We shop at yard […]
So, I’ve touched on this before. Couponing is getting harder. This last year that I’ve been couponing has seen some pretty mild changes to store’s coupon policies as well as the coupons that have been made available. Maybe not so many great deals, maybe a few less identical coupons accepted in a transaction. But here […]
