It's the fresh start of a new week!
I'm hoping not to spend today or tomorrow but might do a huge grocery shop on Wednesday.
Good luck for the week everyone Smile

Todd and I both got gas today : His was $20, mine was $15.
We need to get milk sometime this week as well at Walgreens while it's on sale for $2.69/gallon. Hopefully, that's all we'll spend for this week.

I went to work yesterday to see the manager about changing back to day shifts. I also took my gift cards to go see what I could find afterwards. I used one but not the other.
I spent on a large silver photo frame (reduced from $20 to $10) to put my favourite wedding photo into for Valentines Day. I also bought a 2pk of red thermos coffee-mugs on special (reduced from $3.99 to $2.49). Might use them for a picnic or save to use as 'eco-gifts'.

I got the mail for the first time in 3 days, and had the circulars with some sales.
I told Todd that I was going to go out and get some stuff this weekend on sale. He says, "NO! You said you were not going to go shopping for a month. We have enough food to last us OVER a month. No shopping."

:-)

Hee hee.
OK. I'm addicted to sales.

"Hi, my name is Meg*n, and I'm addicted to sale food items."
Chorus "Hi, Meg*n."
