You need to know where to get them in order to use them, right? In obtaining coupons , I have gone through a few different stages. When I first began using coupons, I solely relied on the Sunday paper being delivered to my house each week. In doing so, I had one copy of each insert weekly and cut them out accordingly. For me this just wasn’t enough. Then, I progressed to get high-speed Internet and was introduced to some online coupon sites. These, coupled with my other coupons, gave me, what I felt like, was an ample supply of manufacturer’s coupon. I was content as I was saving quite a bit off our weekly grocery bill.

Sweet Savings

May 12th, 2010

Who doesn’t like to save money?  Perhaps if you have so much money that even you don’t know exactly how much, then you won’t care.  But the majority of people like to save money when they are shopping so that they will have leftover to buy other items that they want (or need).  I found an auction house for McDonough, GA called Auction Zip.  The auctions are located in that city, which is also where my aunt lives.  That was a coincidence.  There is another “auction” that takes place online called BidCactus.  This is a site that my husband ran across, and I visited their page to see it for myself.  This site is said to be more like gambling than a real auction.

Laundry is NOT Sweet!

July 21st, 2009

Doing laundry can be such a daunting and thankless task, and over the years it has become even more so for me.  One of my children has been in the situation many times of not having a washer and dryer to now where they are not allowed to have washers and dryers.  She isn’t in the situation of being able to afford the high costs of laundromats so she brings her clothes to my house and I end up doing them for her.  I’d like her to do them but it takes so long to do her clothes that the kids about drive me crazy.  So instead I do them for her in the relative peace and quiet of my home.  This time I’ve been given three tall baskets of dirty laundry and due to the way that my laundry vent has been placed in this apartment complex, it takes twice as long to dry clothes as it should.  Then of course I need to do our laundry too.  It never ends!

The Prettiest Bathrooms Use Glass Tiles

July 3rd, 2009

If you’re thinking about having your bathroom tiling redone, why not consider some glass tile? I don’t know if you’ve even ever seen it, or if you did see it, realize what exactly it was, but you can see a lot of it on TV how-to shows.  Sometimes these products look so easy to do yourself, but the facts are that while they may not be hard to install yourself, you are not an experienced tiler and can not hope to compare.  It’s a waste of money to do this yourself unless you’ve had prior experience.  Look at the products over at Buy Tile dot com.  They have glass, ceramics, quarry, slate and many other types of tiles.  They are imported from Spain, Turkey, Greece, Italy, Mexico, India and China, as well as products that are 100% American made.  And when you need fast shipping you can find that too.  Their customer service representatives are well trained in helping customers find exactly what they need and how much.  Larger orders will see bigger discounts.  The type of tile each person chooses is not just what fits their budget, but what fits their idea of what will enhance that room of the house; or the floors in the house.  What looks good in one home may not look right in another.  One of the best ways to choose a flooring is to look at magazines or visit online sites to see designer homes.

Apple Iphone, Expensive but also Cheap Company

March 28th, 2009

I bought a used Apple Iphone for $99 from AT&T and it worked just fine.  But I was not pleased with Apple because they were too cheap to print out a manual for a phone that cost a lot, especially last year when they were $400.  Even cheap phones give you a manual.  Then I dropped the phone and even though it was in a case, the display quit working.  I had to drag out my old Razor and charge it up so I’d have a way to call someone. The cordless house phones always seem to be dead.  So today I bought a corded phone that also came with a cordless handset.  Now I can actually answer my phone.

Let’s Watch Some Movies in Comfort

March 1st, 2009

Berkline Apollo Theater ChairsIf I had a big enough house and enough money to set up a home theater room these are the chairs that I would definitely like to have.  If you are looking for some home theater chairs you are going to love a site named Theater Seat Store.  They have a lot of different kinds of seats with varying prices, from the most affordable to the most comfortable.  I didn’t check the price on this particular model.  Rather, I was looking for chairs that looked the most comfortable.  These chairs all recline and have big padding all along the sides which are bigger padding that the seat in between.  And like all theater chairs, these also have a cup holder on both sides.  In my opinion when you have the wherewithal to set up a theater room you definitely need the most comfortable seating.  If you are like me and love movies, this is a must.

Dear Husband

February 19th, 2009

(This is a little comedy I made up that I thought I’d write out.  It is not intended for my spouse!)

Dear Husband;

It’s time to share some thoughts that I’ve been having for many years but have kept to myself.  Now I feel the need to address them with you.

I’m smarter than you are.  I’m bigger and meaner than you and I am in total charge of our family.  I take care of the kids, the house, the dogs and all of our money.

I do not feel the need to walk around feeling myself to make sure it’s all still there.  I don’t grab my breasts to make sure nobody else has and that they are as big as always.  I don’t grab my crotch and I certainly don’t have the inhibition to dig in and scratch myself in public.

I know where the laundry hamper is.  I know how to make the bed.  I  do not hog the bed either, so that you must sleep on the edge and risk falling off (although it was funny when you fell off the bed a time or two!)

In public I do not stare at men, wondering what kind of lover they might make.  I’m wondering instead if they are well off and how often they would expect sex.

Also, it’s time that you realized after all of these years sex has become humdrum and boring.

Now aren’t you glad that I kept you around?

Your Wife.
