double coupon day

Saturday, January 17, 2009

Kmart had double coupon to 2.00 dollars the other day i went there with a load of coupons and ended up with freebies..i got a free pack of tums, two  boxes of kelloogs cereal for 50 cents a box..a free bottle of motts apple juice two bottles of family size shampoo for 25 cents a piece i also got a free sample of canola oil that the store was passing out i might keep that in my purse and use it on my skin when i dont have lotion with me... .my bill was 66.00 dollars before the coupons and 30.00 dollars after..i guess it was worth the time to clip all those coupons...after i left there i headed to my favorite local thrift store..and found 12 pounds of melt and pour soap..i bought it for a 1.00 a pound...i have never seen melt and pour soap at the thrift store before..i wanted to make some heart shaped soap for valentines day...the best place to by valentines day items is the thrift store..i bought some cards there for a 1.00 for 15 cards..and some gift giving bags for 40 cents a piece..i picked up the molds for the soap at michaels and i got the last one they had..my friend likes what i do with melt and pour soap i add my own oils and sent and herbs and fragrance to it and it comes out nice it sure is better than store bought soap..so i thought i would make her some for valentines day..every time she comes over she cleans me out of the soap i have here..home made soap is better for your skin then regular soap bought at the stores..the store bought stuff is too strong for sensitive skin and besides that you dont know what chemicals you are putting on your skin...i guess i will be working on craft projects tommorrow as we are getting more snow..glad i went to the store the other day so we will be ok with all the snow coming our way..
