I Hate Coupon Thieves

We were up and out of the door this morning by 7:30am and went right down the street to get our two regular papers out of the machines... all gone! We had to drive all the way across the city to finally find a dispenser that had any left in them. I refuse to believe that a ton of people were up and about buying papers by 7:30am. The coupons this week aren't even that great, but it is just so frustrating to me that people are so greedy and rude!

Ok enough with the ranting. There weren't a lot of great sales this week. We stopped by Kroger just to pick up some milk and eggs. Then we went to CVS. Not that I really need anymore toothbrushes, but these are the pulsar kind and I was able to pretty much get them for free- on sale for $6, had a $3 coupon, and got $3 ECB- the mouthwash was pretty much the same thing. I started with $5 in ECB, left with $5.50 in ECB and spent a little less than $2 in tax, I think that makes a pretty good deal!

This purchase didn't happen today, but about a week ago. However, "the bucket" as we so lovingly refer to it has been a great purchase! Husband has a job delivering mail, and it is Alabama and the summer so it is stupid hot and he was going through like 5 water bottles a day. Someone at work told him about this thing and it is amazing. It is huge as you can see and it is insulated with styrofoam. You can put ice in it and it won't melt for like 8 hours. It was about $10 but has been well worth it. The best part- you can take it to the Circle K and fill it up with soft drink for $1! I highly suggest:)
