Frugal today...well it depends on how you look at it. LOL.



Went to Wal-Mart to grocery shop, and I bought some school clothes for dd. She is almost five but really tiny, and shopping for her is hard. I bought 2 pairs of 4 slim pants for 7.00 a piece on clearance. A pair of 4 slim capri's for 2.00. I think they were marked wrong, but oh well. I also got her 4 or 5 shirts for 3.00 each (clearance) some socks that match the shirts, and a pair of skorts for 6.84. She has a lot of clothes, but I wanted her to have a few new things, because EVERYTHING else is handmedowns. They are in pretty good shape, but a couple years behind the style everyone else wears.

Also frugal, was noticing they forgot to comp the price of the milk from safeway, and going back in to get my 4.50 difference in the 4 gallons of milk. The lady looked at me like I was crazy for coming back in...... you guys all understand that I'm not. LOL...

Took DD to lunch at Wendy's, not exactly frugal, but I was craving it...

Went and picked up her application for Head Start, took her to the Wic office to get her Hematocrit (iron) levels checked, and tonight she has a physical. I take the application back in the morning, and hope she gets accepted. They denied her preschool ap because we are too low income. (Last year, as a single mom I made 5000.00. and I'm not on foodstamps, or Wic, just medical)

Anyhow, that was my day so far.

This week, I'm going through her closet and getting clothes sorted that I'll let her wear to school, and those that are too small, etc. We have boxes of clothes for bigger sizes too, that I need to go through... ICK!
