Happy New Years Everyone!

I haven’t been able to update sales due to working a lot, but it has been worth it.I got not 1 but 2 100.00 tips. I always put others first, and it makes me feel good when someone thought of me enough to do something special like that. This makes me realize how good deeds always come back to you, and you receive much more than you expected.

Happy Holidays Everyone!

Tina

Since the family emergencies, couponing has taken a back seat to everything. Last week I saved around 60% which included most of Thanksgiving Dinner. This week I went to wal-mart as I am going to be working about 80 hours this week! I spent 80 total, but 6 was for charity, 20 was for christmas presents and 3 cute girls requests. I feel that if you cannot coupon, wal-mart is the cheapest place to shop.
