Most of my clothing for our 5 children comes via the family hand me down boxes. I simply supplement with some garage sale finds, my favorite Consignment Sale and a new pair of tennis shoes. I love the half price sale on Saturday. After all, you never miss the deals you didn't see the day before. So head on over to Ressurection Life Church on Ivanrest this Friday or Saturday to check out the deals. I also consign some stuff here as well. Cents and Mite are the last of the line on both sides, so there is no family to pass on to just now.
Friday, September 18, 9 a.m - 3 p.m.
Saturday, September 19, HALF-PRICE sale, 8:30 a.m. - 12 p.m.

Financial Peace
I was chatting with my neighbor Kate. We carpool together. Well she isn't exactly my neighbor, she lives 2 blocks down. All my neighbors chose to go to another school in town so they could get free busing. That makes me a little mad in a 1.3 million cut year. I could show them how to trim some fat! But I have to carpool with a small family since we fill up our minivan pretty well on our own. And she has one boy. Okay, that had nothing to do with Financial Peace.
When I talked to Kate about coupons, she echoed my feelings before I could express them: energized, empowered, excited, making a difference. And she echoed the feeling that others thought she was a little crazy. The only thing is, Kate doesn't coupon - she is living debt free, or toward that end. She expressed the same feelings as I have only relating to Dave Ramsey's teaching into action. Wow. I have hemmed and hawed about taking the class for about 4 years now. But no longer, we are enrolled and went to our first class last night. The homework this week is a bare bones budget and reading some chapters. His speaking was good and motivational and it seems we are in a diverse group, including a 17 year old (wouldn't you like to go back to 17 and remake a few financial decisions!). Oh, and save $1,000 emergency fund Quickly (so we can stop charging those emergency car repairs, Christmas shopping, etc.)

Tuesday's Table
Would I have ever have clipped a coupon for True North nuts before? Would I ever have been able to find it? The coupons I used were from February! But I didn't have to use them to get them free. I got a $3 register reward at check out. So I did the deal twice. The Triaminic was 2 for $10 with $5 Register Reward. My little Cents has a cough, so it was time to stock up again. Reportedly it was giving 2 RR yesterday, making it free, but they must have fixed that glitch.
I do love lan Aldi's deal. They had millk for $1.25 today when I dashed in for it. I didn't grab a cart and regretted it: Seedless Watermelon was $1.99. So all this for $5.74 makes me a happy camper.

$1.25 for Milk
Hey, Aldi's has milk for $1.25 a gallon this week. Did you know you can freeze milk??? Yep, you can. Pour a little out first to make room for expansion in the freezer. I know, now you all think I'm really cheap.
