2:00pm

Went to Walgreens today to get the
paper jamz guitar with free amp.
And do you know I visited 2 stores
and neither one even got the paper amps in!!
The delivery truck never brought them to them.
So to me this sounds like a scam to get
you in their store. I've seen many things
advertised and could be at the store
as soon as they open on the first day of the
sale and they don't have the item advertised.

Here is what I bought today with coupons & sales:

3- 8 ounce bags of Hershey Kisses
reg. $4.00 each x's 3 is $12.00
sale $2.00 each x's 4 is $6.00
I paid $2.00 for 3 bags or .66 cents each!
(I see Peanut Butter Blossom cookies in the near future, lol.
I didn't think I could get these made this year due
to the prices I've been seeing in the stores!
But of course I will use my .50 cent
Krusteaz Cookie mix to make them)

2- 16 ounce bags Butterfinger miniatures
reg. $4.00 each x's 2 is $8.00
sale $2.50 each x's 2 is $5.00
I paid $2.50 for 2 bags or $1.25 each

4 Wonka Candy Bars
reg. $2.79 each x's 4 is $11.16
sale $2.00 each x's 4 is $8.00
I paid- all 4 FREE!

HerbaShine Hair Color
reg. $7.99
had free coupon so made it FREE
Then I used a Walgreens coupon
for $5.99 HerbaShine hair color.
The cashier took off another $2.00 off!
So I got $7.99 in free hair color +
and extra $1.99 off that!!

My Walgreens receipt says I saved $30.12 today!
Woo Hoo!

What's for supper?

12 oz Box of bowtie pasta .69 cents
16 oz. Ragu double cheddar sauce $1.89
pkg smoked sausage $1.79
and whatever veggies I can find in the freezer.

A picture I took yesterday of our tree.
I'll call it WINTER RED;
A red fire truck, a red stop sign,
red berries in tree,
and a red female and male cardinal.
The firetruck didn't have lights on
and was just going down the street.
I was trying to get a picture of the two
birds when it happened to pass by.

Tony and the boys find this commercial funny.
I just give them the evil eye like Mrs. Potato Head does, lol.

I have up for grabs a FREE Barbie bicycle.
I think it's a 20 inch.
This is for some little girl who may
need a Christmas present!
Someone in the 5-8 years old range.
Not to be sold!
I don't have a picture at the moment
as it's in the back of the truck.
It was left behind at an apartment
and I would like to see it go to a
lesser fortunate person!
It's kinda like the picture below
but I don't remember anything
hanging off the handle bars or front bar.
It does have training wheels with it.
It is in pretty good condition!
If you know of someone who could use this
please let me know.
I would like it gone before Friday.

Merry Christmas!
