Chillin At The Mall

 What's a girl to do on a triple digit Saturday afternoon? Shopping of course. My friend Amy and I decided to try and check out some Summer clearance deals and this is what we found.

First up was JCPenney's.

   
   We found mineral make-up on clearance for $5.00. I have always wanted to try this stuff but I wasn't willing to pay $100 bucks a pop.  I also found these adorable flavored chapsticks for under $2.00.
Total for make-up and chapstick = $12.00 + tax  Savings =90%

             The best part of it all was this...

                                         
Super Duper yummy treats.... 8 bags to be exact... absolutely free !!!! Turns out Meals On Wheels didn't  pick up the day old treats and they were happy to get rid of them. They gave us over $100.00 worth of baked goods absolutely free. This was enough to keep a smile on my face all weekend.

Make sure you check back tom. for the unbelievable designer clothing deals I  found. It will blow your mind!!!

       Happy Clearance Shopping,

Chic Chick Carnival

I'm very excited about the Chic Chick Carnival hosted by Chic Chick Media. My blog is all about the loves in my life like couponing, singing, shopping, doggies, dating, decorating and all things girly. Coupons are a blessing it's like free money. Who doesn't like free money?

 Today I'm featuring my peep of the week and my new friend Kate. I met Kate through Blog Frog. Her website is titled Practical Faith for Everyday Life. Knowing she is a christian lady and very practical I was so excited to check out her blog http://www.faith4moms.blogspot.com. For some wonderful ways to enjoy God and have faith in your everyday life check it out.  She is also a coupon lover I couldn't resist! While browsing check out visit our peeps.

IF THE SHOE FITS

Nothing in this world makes you feel good instantly quite like a great pair of shoes. Whether they cost $5.00 or $500.00 doesn't matter, only that wow I look good no matter how much I weigh feeling does. Shoes do something to women to make them feel so good about themselves. Ace the job interview, attract the cutest guy, upstage your competition no matter what it is, you totally rock when you have the right pair of shoes!!!!!



Cha -Ching Baby!!!

      Look what $7.00 Summer clearance looks like.

      You heard me right!

                                        
  These are the last denim pair in Oklahoma City and I persuaded the sales rep to let me have them for $19.99. He was saving them for his girlfriend but he told her they were already sold. Don't worry it was his oops not mine. The odds were in my favor.  Go visit Payless today!
                        

  Now for my comfy finale.
                            

                                        
Nothing fancy I know but for $2.00 bucks sold!!!!!

                              

            Happy Clearance Shoe Shopping,

I'm Loving My One Special Night

 I've been meaning to tell you about downtown Oklahoma City for quite some time now. Bricktown is now a happening place. At first I was not excited about putting in a riverwalk, I thought it made us too much like San Antonio but I must say it certainly has grown on me. It's full of clubs, restaurants, the baseball park, movie theater, bowling alley, and even the people that do the building jumping. That's right building jumpers! People actually do that for sport. Can't say I would try.
  We ate at Crabtown a fabulous little seafood joint. I got a great cheesey crab dish complete with red beans and rice.

 Now they also have the most wonderful potatoes I think I have ever eaten.  How many of you have eaten alligator? You heard me right alligator it comes grilled to the left and fried to the right. It's kind of like steak but not as good. I say leave the alligators alone! The grilled is better.

                                       
They had some great entertainment! If you look at the picture below in the top right you an see the lady singing and playing her guitar. All I have to say about Toby Keith's is it has some great entertainers. The staff is rude, the service stinks, and the food is bad and overpriced . There is no loving this bar but the entertainment is worth it. Sorry Toby! I still love you just not your bar.....

                                         
 I am a happy lady who enjoyed a surprise carriage ride, walk down the canal, and a midnight finale at Toby Keith's.

                                           

This was bound to be the best date I have ever been on .Too bad it didn't work out!!!!!

I will always remember it as one special night.

Happy Summer Days,

Hot, Hot, Hot

                                           Boy Bear is a happy little fella isn't he?                                   

 I can't believe it is already after 3:00p.m. on a Sunday. This morning I got up at 6 to let the little munchkins out and I haven't stopped. It doesn't seem like I have gotten anything done either. Today is definitely not a day I can claim that I have made progress at anything. I haven't even looked at the coupons or the ads. Oh well, I will get to all that later in the meantime, let's talk about heat. Ask me what we have been doing this Summer and I will tell you, either we have been drowning in rain or dying in heat.

                                             Baby K is smokin !!!!!

                                               This is Jazzy

                                          Little Miss is trying to cool off .

                               Even Baby Cami is having trouble staying cool.

             Well we were going to take a trip to the dog park but it's too hot. So if you will excuse me I am going to plant my hiney on the couch and watch a movie. I figure in a few hours I might tackle my massive to-do list.

Stay Cool,

Oh How I Love to Garden

                                                     Aren't my elephant ears huge!!!!!

Since there is absolutely zip going on in coupon land this week I thought I would share with you another passion of mine, gardening. Now a girl's gotta have something to do when there aren't any sales. So I like to make the world a prettier place, especially my world.

                 I love to garden so much I take care of my mom's house too. Isn't her Monkey Grass crazy here!


Last Fall I had the nerve to plant 100 of my favorite flower bulbs, tulips. I was sad to see how they turned out.

        Only a few made it. Sad little things. I almost cried but then check out the next door neighbors.

                                          At first I was in shock.
                                           

                                                            Maybe a wee bit jealous...

                                          Alrighty, how did this happen exactly 30 ft.from mine?

                                 I eventually realized I could sit on the front porch swing and admire hers.

                                                    After all I have pretty Hostas....

                                        
                                 This is how my Caladiums looked when they were first coming in

These are the sweetest little pink perennial flowers. I have no idea what they are called since the plastic label you stick in the ground washed away with all the rain we have been having.

                                       
                Remember the Blueberry bushes we bought a few months ago? They are coming in nicely. 

                                        

                                          Our Tiger Lillies sure have taken off...

                           
                                          Now the lime green looking stuff is my new Money Wart groundcover.

                                  
          If all goes as planned it should eventually look like this. Our neighbor Penny has quite the green thumb.

                                

I hope you enjoyed the quick tour of my new garden. Be sure to know I will keep you posted as to how things grow.

Now off to Walgreen's to spend those RR's that expire today. I will show you what I have planned for them later this weekend.


Happy Gardening,

The Cute Couponer

Happy 4th of July
