No Sandals?

by Brandy

What the heck?  I was just thinking about this for some strange reason.  My girls did not get sandals this year! They get summer shoes every year and usually they are sandals.

Morgan now only prefers sneakers and my old doc mary janes, she took off with them and claimed them as her own.  Lauren has crocs, cute purple ones.  Emma has these things she calls her Hannah Montana shoes, even though they have nothing to do with Hannah Montana.  They also make her feet stink horribly.  It’s horrible.  I have never smelled such a foot stench from such a little person.

Hmm, maybe I can find some on sale since it is late in the season and score a wicked deal?  They like the shoes they have, but sandals are so cute as summer dress shoes.  Off to do some internet window shopping….

Today was one of those Mondays. You know, the one where you have all of these things planned to get done and none of them happen? Yea it was one of those days….BUT I did accomplish things I did not have planned.
I went to Piggly Wiggly first thing and was there before everyone else and was able to score TONS of meat marked way down. There are not many of these around anymore it seems. I love going there because of the markdowns on meat, produce and dairy. The produce guy was bagging ripe bananas as well so we grabbed a bag of those and he gave Lauren a banana just cause. You don’t get that treatment at the bigger stores.
Then I went to CVS and Walgreens and got free mini touch glucose monitors, one from each store. These will go to my friend Tereasa whose son has Juvenile Diabetes. They are so much cooler than the monitor I had to use. Small and shiny. After that I went to Kroger and made out pretty well with the $5 off of of 10 items deal. I did the deal twice and saved even more after all of my coupons. After the paying I was looking over my receipt and one item rang up higher than it should have, so I got cash back and that item was free.
Now its after midnight and I really should be sleeping but I do need to let you know about a contest going on over at Thrifty Jinxy. Enter to Win Thrifty Jinxy’s Summer Fitness Package!
