*Wal-greens Trip*

I actually didn't have to wait until Saturday to figure out my deals and go shopping. Since we are hanging out at my mom's and everyone is at work, I've had plenty of time. I took Tyson over to my uncle's this morning and I stopped at Wal-greens on the way. Here's what I got~some of the deals (actually I think all of them) will only be GREAT if you have the coupons from the last few weeks paper.

Wal-greens is running a deal this week on Listerine, floss & toothbrushes buy 3 for $9 and get $6 back in Register Rewards. There was a coupon in the paper for $3 off any 3~so I got Listerine, floss & a 2-pk of toothbrushes for FREE!!!!

then they have buy any 2 allergy products and get $3 back I bought 2 children's benadryl @$3.99 each and get $2 RR~so $3.99x2-$2 in coupons- $2 RR~so I paid $4 for 2 things of meds. WOO HOO .

Then I did the deal again but got visine ($4.99) & sudafed ($3.99) and had $3 off visine & $1.50 off the sudafed so $4.99+$3.99-$3 coupon-$1.50 coupon-$2 RR I paid $2.50 for visine A and sudafed

then I bought a tube of cologate toothpaste on sale for $3.49 - $2.50 Easy saver coupon -$1.50 coupon from the All You magazine. This should have been a money maker but they manager wouldn't give me more than what i was paying for the product so I asked her if she would adjust the coupon down to make it FREE!!!

The last thing I bought was 2 things of degree deodrant they were on clearance for $1.79 and i had 2 .75 cent off coupons not quite free but cheap enough for me.

If I figured right I paid $5 something for all of these things since I got $10 back in RR~I am excited! :)

now I need to get my CVS items together! haha

Another Random Post...

Hum, let's see I guess I'll start with Tyson..He is officially unemployed, he has received his last check and his great severance package (haha). He has several projects going on around the house that kept him busy this week, along with school. He passed his EPA Certification class, so he's done with his Mon/Wed class~WOOHOO!!! His garden is starting to grow pretty good and we already have sprouts~it won't be long! He got his first practice A/C job last week when ours froze up. These are the coils before

see that little piece that is pulled away kinda~yeah that's how thick the crap was on the coils.

After


No wonder the thing didn't work. While we were trying to figure out the problem Tyson was letting it thaw out and it leaked into Jed's room on the carpet, so we had to pull up his carpet~(creating another project for ourselves!)
Jed is starting baseball this week and he is excited about that. He is also getting baptized on Sunday~he is very excited about this!

Caroline is well, just Caroline! She's reading up a storm and enjoying school.

Heather's cheer team got 1st place at their competition this weekend. She is getting ready for all of the fun end of the year stuff for 5th grade! It's hard to believe she'll be going to middle school in just a few months!

We are all looking forward to Spring Break next week! It can't get here a minute too soon! The kids are going to OK for a few days & I haven't decided if I'm going or not!
