Most of you are going to laugh, but I don't care!! My new obsession is COUPONS! Yes, that's right folks... coupons. I am sick and tired of how much or grocery bill has increased in one year. A small tub of "I can't believe it's not butter" a year ago was under $2, now it is over $3. Everything has gone through the roof, but I make the same amount of money... so it's time to be proactive! I cut coupons from the Sunday paper, shop the sales, and now my new favorite: print coupons from the store's website! And no, this has NOTHING to do with my blogging friend Paige's recent post about deliveries. If I could, I would too. We go through so much milk that I wish someone could bring it to me!!!!
Updates and questions: Abby almost ruined another screen last night. She didn't rip it, but she bent the bottom and pushed it all the way out... what am I going to do with this child? Ruby has slept through the night three times in the last week! It has been so nice that she seems to be getting over the fear of her room all by herself. I was on the verge of pressing the issue, but she has weathered the storm and I am seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. I also took Ruby off the sippy cup a couple weeks ago - which has not been an issue, but now I am looking for a cup with a lid to travel with and put in a cooler that doesn't spill and one that I can fill with water or milk (that's all my kids drink - strange, I know) ... does anyone know of where I can find one? Last question, I now have three art projects that Ruby has done at school (2 are about 12 x 18 inches, and one is a large letter C) does anyone - Aeysha - know a creative way to keep these?

I was totally obsessed with coupons for awhile too. I Loved the process of buying a paper and spreading it all out in my living room - Haven't done that in awhile! Robert does most of the grocery shopping now and heaven forbid he use coupons!!! ( I am starting to use my kids art projects as wall art for my white walls! )
I'm obsessed with coupons too! I even posted one on my blog today a a friday favorite! You really should look into milk delivery. It's so good! For us, it's actually cheaper than the grocery store (we don't drink that much to get it at costco).
I would get frames for the art projects and change them weekly/monthly.
Sorry about the screens. we haven't gotten there yet. Thank goodness.
I would go to Michaels or Joanns and use your coupon from the paper to get some frames or shadow boxes. For the letter art project is it solid or decorated. If it's solid you can put scrapbook paper or cute wrapping paper on the background and put the letter in front to make it stand out.
Anytime you need cards let me know. I have tons already made and I have friends that come over and call when they need some. I have cute adult birthday, baby shower, wedding and just cause cards that everyone loves.
I love your glittered painted pumpkins.
don't you find yourself buying things with coupons that your ordinarily would never buy? Is that just me...and why I am not a coupon shopper?
