Life Happens

Seriously, life happens when you're busy not paying attention. I've been so stinking busy lately, I've not had a chance to do ANYTHING ~ especially post on my blog for all three of my followers. But one thing I have managed to stuff into a busy day is a little bit of Etsy-gawking and a LOT of Tosh.O after hours (aka, after the kids hit the hay). So, for your viewing pleasure (and if I can get the video to embed, because this will be my first attempt at such), some awesome Tosh-ness.

Coupon WINNING

Couponing at Walgreens today was a total win. I was too late for the "free" Colgate toothpaste (my Walgreens was out, but it's $2.99 and you get $2.99 in register rewards [free money] to use on your next purchase) because they were out of it, but I did score the 6 pack Scott paper towels and Gilette Fusion ProGlide razor cheap - which was what I went for. The razor, Wonka bars and Aleve is going in hubby's Easter basket.

Here's a quick summary of today's trip:

* 6-pack Scott Naturals paper towels - $5 - $1 Walgreens in-store coupon - $1.50 mfg coupon (@ www.coupons.com ) = $2.50 (that's 50 cents per roll!!!)
* Gilette Fusion ProGlide Razor - $9.99 - $5 mfg coupon + $4 RR
* Aleve 50 count - $6.79 - $2 mfg coupon - $3 Walgreens in-store coupon = $1.79
* Wonka Exceptionals - $2 each/on sale 2/$3 - $1 off two mfg coupon - $1/1 Walgreens in-store coupon x2 = Free
* Scott Package tape (2 rolls) - on sale 2/$3 - $1 Walgreens in-store coupon - $1 mfg coupon = $1 for two!!!

After the register spit out my $4 register rewards, I used those to get a pack of BOGO Walgreens brand Magic Erasers.
* Walgreens Erasers - $3.99 - $4 RR = FREE

If I hadn't had Mabel with me, I could have gotten by even cheaper, because she was intolerable for that sidewalk chalk and the suckers!

It's Official

I have a diva. Mabel  went shopping with her auntie yesterday and came home with this ensemble. Included... velveteen pants, sunglasses and nothing but PINK clothes. Oh well, at least she's cute. In other news, she was ready 15 minutes before either Coco or myself, and stood waiting at the door for us to get there. 

In other news I sold a pink tutu on my Etsy. Once I figure out how to do the whole "etsy mini" thing, I'll put it on the side of my blog so you can go get stuff, but in the meantime, if you're in the market for tutus, bows or felt food, head on over to http://www.thetutupalace.etsy.com.
