I don't have Adult ADD
Thursday, February 01, 2007

A few posts ago, I thought I might have adult ADD or I was worried about some guy farting next to me in class.  Well yesterday he wasn't in class and I was able to pay attention!  

I don't understand why people sign up for a class and then blow it off.  The class is only 7 weeks long and already half the class is gone.

Insurance
Monday, January 29, 2007

I started taking a MSU Extension class on money management.  The teacher was talking about insurance, renters and auto.  Well as I was looking into getting renters insurance I also got quotes on auto. 

I am changing back to AAA.  I will be saving over $1,066 per year on full coverage insurance on my little Kia Rio Cinco.  I was paying $1,200 every six months through AllState and not even getting tripkits, etc.   The insurance also went up since I moved to my new apartment because I was so close to the expressway they started charging me $100 more per month.

The refund I will be getting will go straight towards my new Auto and Renters insurance!!!!

It doesn't take long to check your insurance rates!  See if you can get a better deal too.

Exciting Toothpaste Savings
Friday, November 24, 2006

I did a little shoping on Thanksgiving day.  I had a toothpaste bonaza.   I had two coupons for $1.00 off Colgate, which were on sale for $.99 and were double couponed.  I bought enough to last a long while, the same with shampoo and condiitioner.  I bought enough to last a few months.  I have the hardest time with money in January (seems to be every year) so I'm stocking up when everything is more than 1/2 off. 

Today I went and got a new tv for Christmas.  I got a new 20 inch flat screen for $49.00.   I only have a little tv.   This  will make my little nest have a better viewing area!

I also got gloves those magic gloves, bogo sale, I'm always losing them so I have four pairs now all the same color for easier  mix and matching and finding when I need a dry pair.
