Squeaky Clean

Today I had to make a quick run to Walgreens to pick up a prescription for my mom. I hadn't planned on visiting Walgreens until tomorrow evening when I finished my deal scenarios but what's a girl to do. While I was there  I made great use of my time and picked up 4 bottles of free shampoo. I love this Organix line. It smells yummy it's affordable and my hair loves it. My hair so doesn't tolerate cheap shampoo!!! You don't wanna see it when I use the cheap stuff on it. I rolled the Organix shampoo by doing two transactions. The shampoo is on sale buy one get one free this week so for every two I bought I got a receipt and took the hangtag off (which there are plenty of) and am mailing it in for the rebate. Voila....FREE shampoo. Don't you love free. Especially organic stuff. While I was on my way out the door I cut through the clearance section and bought 4 sets of 2 bamboo cooking utensils on sale for .50. Since oven mitts don't seem to last long around here the 2 packs of clearance for .84 also caught my eye. I bought 5 sets and got to the register and they rang up at .75 cents a piece. I hope they look adorable hanging in my kitchen!!!

  Once I got home with all my  new goodies I remembered one important thing on my list of exciting things to do today and that was to return a ton of produce to Wally World ( for those of you who aren't familiar with that term it means Wal-Mart it's like a theme park in there.) Since I have been shelling out mega bucks this Summer on fresh produce I certainly expect it to last longer than 2 days. Really Wal-Mart we weren't born yesterday we want quality produce not this make shift stuff that is expired by the time you open the fridge the next morning!!! I figure if I pay for and it doesn't last then I will keep taking it back. At first I thought it was a little extreme until I got in line and saw what other people were returning. EWWW WEEE!  That's a story for another day.

  Well I would love to sit and chat but I have many outstanding decorating and cleaning projects ahead. I think I forgot to mention I made a fortune in college decorating peoples houses. I never chose it for a career because I wanted it to stay fun not stressful. Many friends and neighbors have given me the privilege of helping them turn their cookie cutter houses into designer looking homes. I will definitely make an effort to write more about it. I was thinking it would be neat to show you how I purchase alot of decorative items by rolling my RR's and ECB's. We'll talk more about that later. In the meantime, doesn't a banana smoothie sound yummy for lunch? How about a super juicy pork roast for dinner? I have lots to do.

Toodaloo,

P.S. I figured out where my battery charger for my camera is. It' s at my Grandma's! Silly me.  I am going over this weekend to get it. Good pictures will return soon. Thanks for your patience.
