Clean up on Aisle 3 in K. Roger's!!!

Clean UP on Aisle 3!!

Today Mary Lauren and I headed to K. Roger's or as you know it Kroger's for our weekly grocery shopping. I am also a couponer!! We like to call Kroger's a.k.a. K. Roger's because sometimes we just need a date. Ha!! But anyway, we got there and of course there was a car buggy available so that is what Mary Lauren wanted. Well, off we go, and by the way K. Roger's has some great deals this week, goldfish all varieties 99 cents if you buy 10!! All kinds of specials, check them out!! But anyway, I am driving this HUGE car buggy and the next thing I know I take out a Macaroni and Cheese Display. Oh dear!! Then a sweet lady is bending over to help me clean it up, while Mary Lauren is hollering, Mess Mommy Mess!! She is so funny. My laugh for the day at K. Roger's, gotta watch where I am going.

I love Faithful Provisions and Southern Savers to check for specials at Kroger's. Check them out, using coupons does save money!!

Thursday, Thursday, Thursday!!!

Well, today I had time with my oldest and we went to McKay's in Ktown. A great used bookstore that has books, video games, movies, music, you name it they probably have it. Such fun finds. We found some Diary of a Wimpy Kid books, some xbox 360 games and one  Wii game. My funny boy was so excited, he is a bargain hunter like his Mommy!!  I am glad that he likes to read. I think all 3 of my kids are going to love books like me. That is the one thing they all want to do right now, look or read a book!! What are some of my favorties?? Here is my top 10 list for books for kids: These are all picture books.

10. Goodnight Moon
9.  Richard Scary's big book of words
8. Scaredy Squirrel
7. Guess How Much I love you
6. My Lucky Day
5. The Very Hungry Caterpillar
4. If you give a Mouse a cookie, or any in that series
3. Curious George and wherever he may go( we have lots of those)
2. Green Eggs and Ham
1. Pajama Time by Sandra Boynton

Sorry I don't have authors for all of these, I will try and get that on tomorrow. But these are ones that if I see them, I pick them up for friends. We love Pajama Time and tonight noticed the cover is comign off ours. Many nights we have sung that rhyme, and now Andrew and I can sing it without the book, It's Pajama time, hop into bed, turn out the lights, you can have a party in your dreams tonight...

Well I am going to go do just that, have a party in my dreams!!

Sweet dreams!!

Wild Wednesday

Okay, don't really know how WILD this Wednesday is going to be, but it was fun to call this post that. I have 1 kid with strep and 1 who had fever last night. She is acting okay this morning, so hopefully it is just sinus stuff.  I had a great Tuesday, got some awesome stuff to list on Ebay. My favorites, 3 Members Only Jackets. Oh yeah, I didn't wear one in the 80s, but my oh so hip Hubby did!! He also had a pair of peach pants or so I am told!!

My friends Kroger has a great deal going on the goldfish this week, all flavors 99 cents as part of the buy 10 save 5 bucks event!! I went yesterday and was tossing those things in my buggy like a crazy woman!! My cashier didn't tell me I had bought one of yesterday, just said, "Ya, like goldfish??" Ha, made me smile!!

Hope everyone has a wild Wednesday!! Praise God for one more day!!

Mindy's Monday Madness!!

Well Mondays are usually pretty crazy here, laundry, laundry, laundry. and there is still  more laundry.  Today though, met a friend at the mall and mall walked with all those hip mall walkers!! Mary Lauren had to say hi to all the men and ladies!! So funny!!

Her new thing is calling me "MOM"! at certain times. It is so funny!! This girl was telling me today at Target, MOM more clothes in buggy!! I had to keep telling her, no, we don't need that!! Is she really only 2?? How am I going to handle this at 13??

I came home to a sale on Ebay so that was a happy moment. It wasn't the boots, but I love coming home, checking my email and seeing that something sold!!!

Plus I am counting down until the Aldi opens here in Maryville. They don't take coupons but it sounds like it is going to be fun and have some good deals!!

Tomorrow------MDO!! aka. A Mother's Day of Sanity!!

My Find of the Week

My find of the week was a woo hoo!! I have been selling on ebay for almost 8 years. I have certain brands I look for when I am out thrifting, and one of these is Salvatore Ferragamo. Well, here in Tennessee, I didn't think anyone had heard of good old Sal but somebody did!! Then they took them to the Goodwill where I snatched them up!! I will post a pic of these adorable black vinyl snow boots with a kitten heel!! Get out!! They are too cute, but this chick is going to put them for the ebay world. We don't get enough snow here in Tennessee for this stay at home mom to enjoy them!! Now to get that pic.
