Like them while you're there!!!

Have I Mentioned.....

how busy life has been? I keep saying I'm going to get back here more and more, and I just keep drifting! No more! I will be updating on the deals, the shopping and sharing pictures more and more as Christmas gets closer!

SO, let's just into it headfirst!

Since we last spoke, I've gotten older(BOO!!!) and black friday has come and gone. I have to say even though there were some awesome deals to be had, I only shopped on Thanksgiving Morning at CVS and Rite Aid.

One sentence sums it up:

IT WAS AWESOME!

I took a friend with me who's never done that kind of shopping and I have to say I think it was a total success, we stopped to pick up her children breakfast at our local Bojangles and she looked at me as we were told the total and said,
"Oh my god! That's almost as much as I spent at Rite Aid!!!!"
Can we say addicted?

So now the fun part, sharing what I got!!!!

Emergency Room Fun

So when is the emergency room fun? When you take a friend and get asked if your friend is also your daughter!!!! LOL We had QUITE a laugh over that since she's only THREE years younger!!! I know I've not been around, so I thought I'd share that and let ya know I'll be updating my deals and shopping again soon!

Incoming!!! 9/21/2010

So I wanted to share both my New BzzAgent campaign and the pack I received today for it and my DMC Mentor pack! I am passing out the DMC Mentor kit via Christmas to several ladies in my family who I think would enjoy it that I am also close enough to help out if they should need it. I love cross stitch and DMC is the best!


Thanks DMC!

My BzzAgent campaign is courtesy of X-acto Crafts and Elmer Craftbond Supples, and I am THRILLED to be involved. I love to scrapbook and the products we've been allowed to test(thanks BzzAgent!) will really make scrapbooking a lot more fun! Our Kit included:



~2 Special Scissors for fun edges
~Glue dots
~Glue Stick
~Glue Pen
~Tape Runner
~Corner Round Punch
~Idea book with LOTS of great suggestions

I am VERY excited to use these tools with what I already have to start work on my scrapbook for my son's pre-k year. I will keep you guys updated as I go, I'm starting on it this weekend!
