E-bay Update!

I sold a few more coupons on e-bay and a damaged chi flat iron (I listed that it was damaged!). I'm up to $11.43 or 6% of my goal. That means only $188.57 to go!

I have a few more things up for auction right now and a ton more just waiting to be posted. I'm off to a slow start, but I'm sure I'll make it!

My friend just reminded me about this service and I thought I'd share it with you. When you're out and can't find a phone number, instead of calling 411 and getting charged, just call 1-800-GOOG-411. It works and it's free!

Diaper Deal of the Week! 5/3/09


In my opinion, the best diaper deal of the week is at Walmart. Their Huggies jumbo packs (diapers & pull-ups)(even their new pure & natural diapers) are $9.79. If you have some $3/1 coupons like I do, this makes them only $6.79. (I am actually overloaded with these coupons, I hope I don't let any expire!) They came in the mail and you can print them online.

Walgreens has their Huggies on sale for $9.99 if you'd rather buy them there. It's just a few cents more.

If you don't do Huggies (I know there are some people out there!), Pampers (diapers & easy-ups) are on sale at CVS for $8.99. There are a ton of $1 & $1.50 coupons out there. There was actually some $1/1 coupons in this past 5/3 insert! That would make them $7.99. Not bad!
