My new found LOVE!

Never in my life have I ever been known as a "tightwad" as my mother would call it. As a matter of fact, I get myself into trouble quite a bit because I find something I want, and I HAVE TO HAVE IT and I get it! This would be the reason that my unborn son has more clothes than his Mommy or Daddy! I'm not good about thinking about things before I buy them, definitly an impulse buyer, and most of the time I have buyers remorse like you wouldn't believe! You'd think I would learn my lesson. Another thing I AM NOT, is a morning person. I don't go into work until 10 for a reason...because I would have zero clients. I'm typically pretty cranky in the mornings, and not fun to be around. Well, today was my second day to try the Walgreens Game, and I got lots of much needed items for only a little money. But to make it even better, I woke up at 7:30AM so that I could go to the store and get a Sunday paper to get the Walgreens ad and coupons out of it! I couldn't wait to see what the deals of the week would be. I even went to McDonalds and got my sweet little husband a surprise breakfast! Neither of us ever dreamed I would be up in time to get McDonalds breakfast! Anyway, back to Walgreens, these were my deals for the week!


(1) Venus Embrace Razor $3.49
(1) Comet Bathroom Cleaner $.59
(2) Excedrin Gelcaps $.49
(2) Right Guard Mens Deoderant $2.79

I used a $3 RR from last week, several coupons, and recieved $11 in RR today. I spent $20.38 on everything you see! That is a total savings of $43.88!!! If nothing else, our medicine cabinet is stocked...ha!

24 down...16 to go!

Here I am at 24 weeks! The pregnancy has been going great, and Gage is a WILD CHILD! He has been moving a lot these past few weeks and he is for sure getting bigger! It seems like everyday I wake up bigger and bigger. I have my next doctors appt this Wednesday, so keep us in your prayers. Hopefully everything is still going well! I should get another ultrasound, and I can't wait to see how much different he looks! I sure hope he cooperates! I haven't done anything new in the nursery since the last post, but I am hoping to do a few things this week! The bare walls are starting to drive me nuts!!


I have been hearing, and seeing other bloggers talk about the Walgreens game, so I decided to give it a try this week. I didn't do as well as I had hoped, but not too bad for a first timer. I got everything you see here for about $30 and the cost before all my saving would have been close to $60 dollars. Maybe next time I'll be able to get some better deals!
