today's visit was for me and the girls. We are all in need of a hair boost! So I got 2 for each of us. We need lotion and always need tampons... and I needed some foundation. It feels good to get some girly things FOR FREE! :)
very cool! i am so glad i learned about this whole coupon thing. not only does it save us money, but it's fun, and it's such an opportunity to be a blessing to others! you did good.
ReplyDeleteThanks!! It is fun! I tried to tell that to my 2 girls and their boyfriends the other night and the boyfriends laughed at me lol ... then I had a dream that night, it was about a year later and he calls me from college and says "Mrs Tina can you teach me how to coupon? I am out of money and have no toothpaste!!" hahaha weird dream!! I told him and his mom about the dream and he started choking on the sandwich he was eating from laughing so hard! hmmm we'll see!
ReplyDeletetoo funny, thanks for commenting on my blog. it's nice to know someone reads what i say once in a while. your daughter is beautiful by the way, and hope she makes court.
