Stick a fork in me....I am DONE! Done with October that is. I need a break. With Halloween coming up tomorrow and all the work we have to do around the house this weekend there will be no more coupon clipping, matching, organizing or shopping trips. Granted I only went shopping twice this week but I'm still exhausted.
I didn't bother to bring out all the Coffee Mate from my fridge that I bought. It was on clearance at Target $3/2 and I had a bunch of $1/1 coupons. I bought 10 bottles. Hope they don't go bad. Maybe I can freeze them?
This last haul was excellent because I finally was able to get some things to donate. Up until now it's been a stockpile mission to get our family stocked. I upped my purchase on Sunday papers by one last Sunday and bought 3. Inside were coupons for Ascensia Glucose Meters for up to $30.00. I initially put them in my sell/trade/donate pile but quickly took them out when I realized that Walgreen's had these very meters for $9.99! They are regularly $59.99. One of the meters and a bunch of the tissue isn't pictured. We are all sick so I put boxes all over the house and I gave a meter to my Diabetic Daddy :) He needed a new one!

I have my trip for the 2nd all planned out and should be sharing it soon. This will by far be the biggest haul to date. I plan to donate some things too. How exciting!
