I got my first Ebates cheque yesterday! $28.97!
So happy to have been able to line dry 3 loads of laundry in the past two days. Youngest has spent the last three days assembling his new ikea bedroom set. So glad he is able to do that with just a little help from me. DH was paid today with means we get paid once a week this month. It has been 20 years since that happened. It’s kinda nice.
I need to do a big produce shop this weekend. We have no fresh fruit. The joys of teens.
I used $24.48 in coupons at WM. Free face cream, free soft cat food (found the coupons in store), $1 carrots. Coupons paid for 1/2 my purchase.
That’s amazing. I looked at my tracker to see when I last used a coupon and it was late April. I just do not have any good ones.Quote:

Saturday yard sales--check. Husband fed lunch--check. Back to work--well, check after this posting. The yard sales today were good but not great.
#1 was a Baptist yard sale for the food bank. I bought a band new replacement purse for $1, a huge new comforter for $5, and 3 dog toys+an Oxford Dictionary for $1. Total=$12
#2 was a school fundraiser in the school's front parking lot. I bought 3 DVDs for $1 each. DH bought a toilet seat as a replacement for our wobbly one for $5.
#3 was a bust
#4 was a bust
#5 DH bought two sets of ear phones for use in the car to replace the "buds" set that he hates--$1 each. A seven piece huge and brand new comforter set for $10. Boy, am I going to throw out a lot of old bedding this year!
Then home...where work and the gardening are waiting. Heck, they are almost screaming at me.
Yard sale, folks! Seriously.
Good morning all
Yesterday I fell and fracture my ankle. Now I guess I will be resting for a while. Is so frustrating for me because I am always on the go. My DH will be doing most of the shopping so no PM or coupons would be using . My house will not be couponing for A While. Wish that this site was fix so I can Message members to either trade some of the good coupons I have or just RAOK them if it’s going to go to waste. @lilo0003 what coupons are you looking to get that was out there as tear pads ?
@flemeth I clicked "like" but I sure DO NOT like that you fractured your ankle. Get well. And take care, lady.
Best wishes for a quick recovery. IDK if I can do anything to help with current or upcoming deals, but while the PM function isn't working, you can reach me by e-mail at jontoo @ zoho.com (remove the spaces).Quote:

You are definitely scoring on bedding. Maybe the old bedding could go to some animal sanctuary/dog rescue organization in your area? Unless there's a textile recycling option (local group or municipal recycling initiative). I like the headphone deals! I pay $3.25 at the library for the Maxwell brand.
Well... I made the call to the manager I interviewed with at RCSS to see if the background check went okay and If I've got the job, and... I've GOT IT!! I have orientation tomorrow from 5 to 9pm and I can not wait! My first real job and my first job after university (although my convocation is on Thursday) and I'm working a job for the other convocations this week for a little more income. I think this will be a good fit and I can potentially work my way up at RCSS with my Business Degree, maybe even to a manager one day! Who know!
@flemeth - Sorry to learn of your ankle mishap! Might you have a coupon neighbour or friend that could help you with either getting some of the store deals or helping you with getting some coupons? Does anyone in the family have a smartphone with coupon apps?
Cool wind today is going to make food sales take off at the tournament. Local residents running "parking lots" have in some cases gone from $25 to $30 for today. The HSR shuttle buses look full this morning.
Have some laundry on the line drying outside. Washed the floor after breakfast (wanted it done) and did a can walk (70 cents richer).
Can you please tell me who is on your list and where can I get coupons too! There is hardly any coupons here in Grey County OntarioQuote:

Oh I am happy happy! Dropped DS off at work for 5. Decided to hit free garage sale leftovers I saw advertised. I Got:
cute yellow star money bank with cute saying on it about wishes ( put 5 shinty loonies in it for my niece to go with birthday gift)
huge tall vase
smaller baking dish ( oven to table very nice)
cargo carrier for back of SUV
Brand New Black and Decker digital steamer. ( I was just looking at store at these and thought I would redeem points) so happy about this. Still wrapped in packaging!
Laundry is on go and kitchen clean. Cleaned my dresser off and putting odd socks together. Tossing crap. Feels good. House is quiet which is a nice change.
Flemeth sorry to hear about your ankle, hopefully you heal quickly. I also feel your frustration, due to the small complication in my surgery I am restricted to not lifting anything over 10 lbs for 3 weeks and am not supposed to bend and lift. I feel like I cannot do anything.
John congrats on the job.
Life here is pretty boring, although I am catching up on my PVR which is now almost clear. Mom will need to go grocery shopping tomorrow, she is just going to No Frills and I do not really see anything in their flyer we need. Will check the other flyers and see if I can get her to stop else where one day after work.
Not sure I am going to be able to go back to work on Monday. I should be able to work from home but do not think I will be able to sit at my desk comfortably right now.
Hope everyone has a wonderful day
@SassyAshley thank you. I hope you also get better soon.
I have my DH and DDs helping me . It frustrates me because I am always on the go . Today my DH had to go get his car fix and my DDS had plans and the canceled to stay home to help me even though I insisted for them to go out. Now I feel like I am going to make them change there plans to make sure someone is home with me at all time
@flemeth: coupons of tear pad posted in the dollars and cents scan tread mostly posted by mcminsen :)(mostly coupons for dove body wash or soap,axe,cavendish and yogurts coupons :) )Quote:
