Well I was on my way to CVS to buy the $.99 after coupon and ECB razors. I get a half block from my house when one I realize I forgot my coupons and two my fuel light comes on.
This reminds me I must go to the gas station. I fill up the two gas cans for the lawnmower with 2 gallons each and then fill my tank....$50. I can hardly believe it. Ouch that hurt the checkbook.
I then head over to CVS I end up buying the razor deal, and the excedrain deal.
After CVS I hit the childrens resale store, I got five pair of size seven shorts for next summer and paid a little over $10.
This morning before we left the house I finally went looking for the shorts that I had packed away for DS, he is now a size six. About two years ago one of the consignment shops in town went out of business and they had there stuff on super clearance I bought a bunch of shorts and a few pants in size six. This is nice because I forgot about the pants and DS is in a size six, a size seven is way too big but six are perfect. Well he has small holes or the start of small holes in almost all of his size six pants and I was able to find three pairs of pants for him without holes.
My NEW 2009 goal is by the time Dec 31, 2009 rolls around I want to have stock piled clothing for DS in sizes seven, eight, and nine. Shorts, Long Sleeve T shirts, PJ's, jeans, and swim trunks. Note I did not say short sleeve tops because if you are not picky about what is on it you can always find them on clearance.
BYE BYE $50!
