    Not Finished With Christmas Shopping????? We Got Ya Covered!!

    / No Comments

    If y’all are like me, you may not be completely done with your Christmas shopping. For some reason the season has gotten away from me. Well, I am the kind of person that instead of completely breaking down in a heap and crying “woe is me” (ok, I may have lost it for about 5 or 10 minutes) I pick myself up and figure out the solution.

    Senior & Not So Senior Discounts

    / 8 Comments

    Senior & Not So Senior Discounts In this day and age when the price of EVERYTHING seems to be on the rise, it’s always nice to be able to get a little bit of a break. As I was waiting in line behind an older gentleman at Wendy’s recently, I heard him ask for his senior discount. The girl at the register apologized and charged him less. When I asked the man what the discount was, he told me that seniors over age 55 …get 10% off everything on the menu, every day. (But you need to ASK for your senior discount.) This incident prompted me to do some research,…

We don’t like to let things go to waste and will usually find some strange way to use things. It just so happens that these are very useful!! If you’re like us, you have at least 4 or 5 containers of deodorant tucked in places in your bathroom. Some we got as free samples in the mail, some were purchased and forgot, some we were able to get with coupons but really didn’t need and some we just plain didn’t like. Take a look at these…

    Growing Up Isn’t What It Used To Be ‘Someone asked the other day, ‘What was your favorite fast food when you were growing up?’ ‘We didn’t have fast food when I was growing up,’ I informed him. ‘All the food was slow.’ ‘C’mon, seriously. Where did you eat?’ ‘It was a place called ‘at home,” I explained. ‘Mom cooked every day and when Dad got home from work, we sat down together at the dining room table, and if I didn’t like what she put on my plate, I was allowed to sit there until I did like it.’ By this time, the kid was laughing so hard I was…

    / No Comments

    Would you like to spend Only $30 Per Year For Laundry Detergent? Yep, I thought so! Well we are going to show you how! As you know I finally took the plunge last year and made my own liquid laundry soap. It was fantastic!!

They all varied a bit, but none of them really struck me as being great. Then I found one on One Good Thing By Jillee. It said that you could make a years worth of laundry soap…
