The power of Oprah!!

I am sure y'all have heard by now about Oprah mentioning that if you go to her site and print your coupon Payless Shoes will offer 50% off EVERYTHING in the store. No exceptions? For today only? Get your coupon here.

Yeah well me and 50% off shoes. Oh yeah. I went. Generally I am not a HUGE fan of payless, but because they sell shoes I can usually see past the cheapness of most of them... I was #33 in line.... And the line went through THE WHOLE STORE!


My buys... only $7.43 for both pairs!!! Now thats a deal!


I was a little disappointed to see the selections that were still left, I was hoping for some cute boots but there were NONE left in the store.....

I guess I am going to have to follow Oprah a little more carefully? See what other deals I can score this year?

Anyone else hit up this HUGE sale?

Putting it away for the winter...

Yep 2 whole bins of summer clothes... All my white capris, tanks, maxi dresses.... I hope the summer comes soon!!!

We still have no snow, however Wyoming where we just moved from has 4 feet of it..... And with our weather (rain, rain, rain) I am sure the snow is not too far off..

I LOVE the fall!

Took my camera with me to the dog park with Daisy the other day I LOVE the fall colors!





Sorry to those who already have snow.. we have been having some REALLY beautiful weather the last few weeks...

Stimulating the economy...

I have not bought shoes in a while..... and while checking out the sales at kohl's I found THESE BABY'S


Don't mind the white legs!!! But I had to put them on for effect... they are the SMALLEST heal in my closet other than flats.. but I LOVE THEM!


Love them!


I am thinking of all the outfits to wear with these!

$2.30 Oh yeah I am getting good!!!

All this stuff for $2.30 PLUS I got $10 back to spend back at Walgreens... This is so fun!

And what am I going to do with 36 Dove deodorants? I am going to donate them of coarse!

But I am also going to do up a SUPER SPECIAL surprise basket of a bunch of my favorite things!

Yep a HUGE basket so check back later for details of my Fall Favorite Things Giveaway!

So sick... again

So I am a little frustrated with my body at this point. I was on antibiotics for over a month and steroids for my lungs. Well my lungs are better.. and now I am sick with a cold AGAIN!

So on that note, I am going to sleep lots. And start the Shred when I a feeling better.. I slept till noon today which was a luxury.

But on a happy note I am busy planning our vacation in Feb or March to this BEAUTIFUL place.. and other than flights our resort is FREE!! I am so glad we bought our time share so long ago.. Ocean view oh yeah!

30 Day Shred?

Anyone done it?

Thoughts?

Well I bough it... and I am starting on Monday... Well because I have to FINALLY lose this weight... That and I am booking our trip to Cabos this weekend and I am SO EXCITED!!!

Whats in your mail box?

I do love me some free stuff! Well this was all in my mail box last week and the week before!

My US magazine subscription that I used a coupon for only $4.95. I only took about a week to get my first issue! And a $10 Visa gift card from a swiffer rebate I sent in for about 6 weeks ago.
FREE chocolate!! And energy drink just for signing up!
And the MOST FABULOUS lip balm from E.O.S. Free!!


I also recieved some rebate checks too

One for $3.47 for clorox, one for $6.99 for Vitamin shampoo and one for $3.99 for something that I can not remember!

$24.45 FREE MONEY!!! I love this stuff!

Funny story...

So when I was traveling back from Halifax when I was home in Canada, I had only carried on because I was only in town for 3 days and I did not want to pay to check bags. That and because it was such a quick trip I did not want them to lose anything...


Anywho when I was coming back from Halifax they asked me to check my carry on because it weighed too much. Well I panicked. I was only going to be home in Canada for 2 more days and if they lost it I would be devastated because EVERYTHING that I use was in there....


Well with much cohercering from the nice lady I asked her "Please do not lose this!" (she thought I was nuts but laughed at me anyways....

When I got my bag back this was written on my tags......



It made me smile : ) Because really like she had a choice if it got lost or not!

I love to shop! And I am good at it too!

So ever since I got it in my head that I wanted a new purse for my birthday and the one I went out to get was a flop.. I thought I would head out today to see what was out and about.....



And I bought 6.....








Macys was having a FABULOUS summer ends sale for %80 off. And then I had a coupon for an additional %20 off AND I had a $10 off of $3o gift that Macys sent me for my birthday....

Oh yeah, I also purchased 4 dresses, 6 shirts, and 1 roomper for ONLY $20 baby!!

Each purse was under $4!!!! So how could I not get them all?? And the bright blue one was quasi the color of the one I was after anyways..... It took me LOTS of stuff (all Roxy and Guess) at over %100 off to come up with the $30 I needed to spend to get the $10 off!!!

Wheww shopping is exhausting! But I will not be needed a new purse anytime soon! Or any more cute summer wear.... Thank goodness we have a beach vacation in our future!

I love surprises!!

Reason 797969678 that I love my husband!

He brings home yummy desserts from lunch!!!


Just the word surprise gets me all excited, he brought home 4 yummy desserts from a luncheon at work. I LOVE sweets!!

Maybe I will clean the bathrooms today....

I got most of the stuff done on my list yesterday.

1. Hair cut Check

2. Dog bath Check

3. Rebate stuff check

I went out to buy the purse. Yeah it was not so hot when I got to touch it.. It was cheaply made and it look cheap and for $30 I could not warrant spending that cash (even though its a birthday present to myself) on something that was not FABULOUS! So the hunt continues for a fabulous new purse, or shoes. Or whatever : )

And we are doing date night tonight we are going to see couples retreat!! I am so excited to see this movie. No worries a full recap when I get back!

Stuff to do!

I have 15 things on a list that needs to get done today and tomorrow! I have officially taken 2 days off for myself ; )

1. Get hair cut (this is a priority today its looking really snarly!)

2. Dog gets bath

3. Laundry (all sheets, bedding ect.)

4. Mail in all rebate forms and coupon contest stuff I had laying around

5. Go to Nordstroms for this FABULOUS purse this lady had yesterday. I asked her where she got it and she had just purchased it the night before.. its SO CUTE! And I deserve it so hopefully pictures to come! And no its not name brand or anything just super adorable!


I have been working like a DOG! So far since Monday 43 hours in 3 days... Working 2 jobs is fun. It keeps me busy and the extra money is not bad either..

For some reason it always seems just when you are getting a little bit ahead you get kicked back.

For instance, I started working 2 jobs. Then I got sick and guess what... Still sick. I have already been back to the dr and its still just bronchitis but that's of coarse costing me more money, so all the extra money I have made is paying Dr bills.... I am STILL after 3 weeks on steroids and antibiotics but I just want to be well again...

**sigh**

I hate being a grown up some times!

Hi, my name is Random and I am an addict!

I am an addict.

To coupons.

I LOVE them.. Love, love, love them. I love getting up early on Sundays (and I am a HUGE sleeper I love to sleep in.. not on Sundays) I get up and go out to buy the paper to see the new coupons.

I love getting them organized, sorted. Going through all the flyers to see the deals for the week.

Love it.

This is my overstock shelves.

Well one of them anyways... this is just the "cleaning over stock"

View on the other side.... And yeah it goes ALL the way back.. like super stuffed....
See all this stuff? Yep $8 at Kmart this week. It was double coupon week.... And I got $17 back in kmart dollars to use back in the store!


And I wend to Kmart EVERY DAY. 2 times a day, I used so many coupons this week that I think I may be couponed out a little....

And the other overstock? I have about 30 bottles of shampoo and conditioner, body wash, tooth paste, and floss sitting in a box ready to head off as a donation to a church.....

This is SO addicting.. and fun.. I would be lying if I was not walking through kmart and eyeing other peoples carts and asking them if they have a coupon for that? And if they did not I gave them one and told them about the doubles!!

My name is Random and I am addicted to coupons!

Happy Birthday to me!!

Wow was I really ever that little??

32? How did I get this old?
