If it's free, I'll take it
Something I neglected to include in my little bio on here, is that I'm a freebie junkie. I'm also a sucker for a good deal. I saw an Oprah one time about people having financial problems and one husband said "My wife's biggest problem is a four letter word: S-A-L-E." I think my husband could say the same for me. I cannot shop at Target without dropping $10 on "Dollar Spot" items! I love scouring the clearance racks or sifting through things at Ross, Big Lots or Tuesday Morning to find good deals. I think I am getting better about passing on things I don't need though but it's difficult. This passion of mine led me to Coupon Sense. They track the coupons that come in the Sunday paper and a lot of the printable online coupons with a handy numbering system, and then match them up to the items as they go on sale at the grocery store. Here's my coupon file:There are free things every week and lots of other good deals.

Woo hoo I'm getting a free razor! nor
Hey! I totally had a file like that once upon a time. Alas my coupon sense days have ended. I'm pretty sure they don't cover this area. But I was never as dedicated to the cause as you are, Katie. I frequently didn't grocery shop for weeks at a time and even more often than not...only visited one or two grocery stores when I did go shopping. (GASP!)
I agree getting things for free gives a warm and fuzzy feeling that just can't be duplicated in any other fashion. There's no use trying.
Remember to miss me tomorrow when ya'll gather for girls' night at the movies. Wish I was there. I'll try to think really hard about evolving into a mutant with wings overnight. If I'm successful I'll see you at the theatre. Harkins or AMC?
