Joesbaby!!!

I've sent you a few pm's, I hope to hear from you!!!

Hi, everyone...I have to go buy the scrubs after class today so not very frugal. I have to go back tomorrow to show my arm for the TB test results, so again not frugal...oh well...I need to buy some sugar, got to find the best price for that out of the store papers, I need cat litter and some tissue. So, I'll be spending about $5 today, if I can hit the Dollar Tree today.

Thats all for frugal...

Thanks Songsberries & Mom2-4,

It looks prettier because Bill put them against that red OSU background but they are nice. We also make bracelets and earrings out of them. It looks like my box of buckeyes has been held up in transit somewhere. I called the post office and he said if she sent them parcel post, it could take up to 10 days- I wish I'd paid closer attention. I've got a email in now w/her to find out how she sent them.

Anna

Anna,
Oh know isnt this one of the last home games this season at osu? I think you said earlier it was.... Will they still be good next year? Now you need to find a craft for the soccer Columbus Crew as you said thats right by you! I could see the crowd wanting to wear those. I will have to start tuning into the games on Saturday to see if I see anyone wearing...You never know.
Leasmom,
my dh works at a hosiptal and is in charge of the linen dept among ohters anyway did you know scrubs are the most stolen products in hosiptals? They are thinking of investing in a 4,000.00 machine so that workers have to turn in used pair before receiving another.. Its crazy how much they lose a year though in scrubs big topic in surgery meetings!
Tonights frugal activity is going to the Library for our Shake Rattle Roll class. Just read in the paper that my library was #1 in the nation for the second year in a row for the amount of patrons. I think thats pretty cool. Love the library!

Hi Lee-

yes this weekend is a home game but we still have some necklaces from last game, people were real "tight" on spending for some reason last game? I got hold of my seller, she said she sent it Parcel Post but they told her it would be here in 2 days, she mailed it Tues. at 8:30am, so keep my fingers crossed it'll come in the afternoon mail tommorow. I wish I could figure what the crew would wear? In fact I was at the store a cpl. weeks ago and this little boy w/ his Dad had on OSU outfit... I commented on how cute it was and the Dad said he could not find anything in Crew colors.

Oh we also have 2 more home games, 11-8-03 and 11-15-03 and then 11-22-03 is the big one- OSU vs MICHIGAN at Michigan.

Anna

Got some deals today:

4 Lysol cleaning products: wipes, toilet cleaner, basin tub & tile and all-purpose. With coupons, spent $1.30 for ALL 4.
4 boxes Ronzoni pasta, 1 lb each, with coupons, spent 25 cents each.


Hung 2 loads of laundry to dry.

Worked on toddler Halloween costume. I'm making Curious George out of clothes he already had (got one new jacket for the outfit but he will wear it after Halloween), just adding felt ears & painting Curious George on a red T shirt.
