I’ve uploaded some pictures from the Kentucky Special Olympics to my picasa album. I’ve still got some more to add, but I was killing Mike’s bandwidth for his game.

I’ve always liked coupons. My mom and grandma taught me well when going clearance shopping or using coupons. I must say though, as an adult I used them sparingly. But seeing as though I don’t have a job here in KY, we’ve had to cut back our spending. Today, I went to Kroger and saved $43!! I’ve never said that much before! I was happy! It wasn’t the extreme couponing like some of these TV shows show, but it was still $43 nonetheless!!!! I’ve had a couple of people ask me how! To put it in one word: COUPONS!!!! I had $12.45 in manufacturer coupons, that I had either printed off or cut out. The other $30.55 came from the in store coupons/sales!!
Kroger had a lot of 10 for $10 sales going on this week! Which helped a lot! Yesterday, we received a “welcome to the neighborhood” circular from Kroger. I was able to get a bag of chips for free, saved me $2.99. I was able to also get a bag of Oreo cookies for free too. Saved $3.19! The circular also had spend $5 in the meat, produce and household departments and save $1. I had 3 of those coupons! I had a $4 coupon for Mike’s contact solution. And miscellaneous other $1 and $.40 coupons. Even the check-out gal said that’s a good deal!
