This weekend has been pretty frugal. Saturday, I made money at my yard sale, and then had left overs for dinner.

Yesterday, my girlfriend surprised me and paid for our lunch out for me finishing her grandmother's afghan and doing a little embroidery on it. I would have done that for her anyway.

And the grocery store was pretty frugal. Not as good a percentage saved as Roberta, but not too bad. When the cashier gives you positive comments about how much you saved though, you know you did good. Sometimes the cashiers act as if you are stealing when you use the coupons. In this area of the country, it is like that. But I am one who will go to the cashier with the worst attitude toward coupons just to teach them a lesson - that is, when I have time. Every once in awhile a cashier will ask where on the shelves I found a particular product, because they have the same coupon.

Today will be pretty frugal too. I will walk up to the main street and watch the Memorial Day Parade. Then a friend has invited me to her bbq. I still haven't decided what to take. But I won't go empty-handed.

Well ladies, better go for now. I still have my floors to clean.

Take care all - Norma
