50th Post Give-a-way!

I can't believe I'm already on my 50th post! Yay! It's so exciting.

In honor of my 50th post, I would like to do a give-a-way. I went through a few months worth of newspaper inserts and cut out all the pet coupons. I had to give the doggie ones to my sis and sis-in-law, but I saved most of the kitty ones.

Let's Go Krogering 3/10

Man, I spent a lot of money this week, but I feel like I got some pretty good deals. I could kick myself though, because I didn't realize until after I checked out that I only had 29 items for the Mega Deal, when I thought I had 30. So I only got $10 off instead of $15. Make sure you ask the cashier how many items you have before you pay! Anyway, here's how I did:

Value of Products: $156.11

Total OOP: $68.57 (56% Savings)

Fabulous Thrifting Today! Shoes Galore!

I found a ton of great shoes at Goodwill today. They were only $3 each! The only sad thing is that half of them were in my sister's size! So, she lucked out too!

Here' are some black peep toe with white trim Laura Scott's.

Here are some off white slip on Antonio Melani's.

Here are some black GAP wedge thong sandals.

Gianni Bini thong sandal flats.

I also found this interesting thing. I got it for $3 and it's selling on e-bay for $9.

That's it for now. Get thee to Goodwill!
