Gayla, the hay bale garden sounds really clever and cute... I found some thrills at my grocery store yesterday...I know that is not happening much these days but my timing must have been right because when I checked the markdown section I found 3 Electrasol 75oz. bottles of dishwasher gel (this brand works best in my washer)...$1.43 each, a huge bottle of Spic n Span for $2.00, a big bottle of toilet cleaner for $1.43, 2 big bottles of windshield wash for $1.25 ea., cans of mushrooms, soups and veggies, 50% off, pkg. of 6 containers of mandarin oranges, also 50% off....I must have looked like a mad woman scooping up all these big bottles and cans in a hurry and tossing them in my cart Rolling Eyes

I also went to Walgreens and found bottles of Pears brand body wash and facial cleanser for 99 cents each...they have nothing to do with the fruit but seem to be pretty organic...I will probably go back for more...I also bought one of their eco bags for 99 cents since I go there every week for their specials....
