Everyone Loves A Bargin....

Did that get your attention?

Well it does for me everytime...

But...

What exactly is a bargin?

For me  it is getting a good deal on what you are looking for...

It could be anything...

Food, clothing, furniture,electronics, going out for dinner...just to name a few.

So...you decide(in your mind)...

How much you are willing to pay for something...

Do you want it  NOW...

or

Do I wait patiently to see if it will be just a little less next time.

I know it is hard to wait sometimes...

But it may be well worth it...

Here is my recent example:

Shopping for a camera for my daughter for her birthday...

She had one picked out at Costco...

I looked at the price EVERYTIME I went in the store.

(Now...Costco has some perks...

We have Executive membership...

 we spend enough to pay for our membership

and usally get some money back...

which means...we get paid for shopping at Costco!)

So...the birthday is getting closer...

the camera has an instant rebate...

I get it cheaper than planned and before the birthday.

Yea!!!!

That is not the end of the story..

like I said, I look at the price everytime I go in the store.

2  weeks later...

I look at the price...it is $30 cheaper!

In the back of my mind...I think...

doesn't Costco have some policy...

that if a product is cheaper than

what you bought it for you can get it for that price.

So...

I ask...and yes...within 30 days of purchase!

Double yea!!!

SO...

sometimes it pays...

not to be in a hurry...

And check prices(especially on big items)

AND...

Look for rebates(instant are the best)...

and coupons(they are everywhere)...

BUT...

I will save coupons for another time...

Take care,

Mommy 2

P.S.  

I want to thank my Mom...

for planting the seeds a long time ago...

about getting more for your money...

by looking for bargins.

Hacked?

Hello! I am kinda hacking my Mom's blog . . . ok,

well it doesn't really count as hacking, I asked her,

and she said yes! But does that still count as a hack?

Anywho . . . I should probably tell you who I am first.

My name is : KayleeBeth, I just turned 13 two weeks ago, and this is me -->

That is just me being hyper :) and I am hyper pretty much ALL of the time!

Anywho. . . I kinda lost my train of thought . . . Yea um . . . ok I was talking about being hyper..... hacking....

Well anyway....  My Mom has another blog... a photography blog  click here to see it, but you should comment  and tell her to post more on it :) Cause she is really good but she just never posts :-(

And another thing you should do is watch Julian Smith click here to see some of his videos . . . He is super funny :) And he has a lot of energy (kinda like me) Anyway another thing I need to tell you is that My Mom and Dad's anniversary is next month on the 6th :) so I will probably hack (or not) in again to do a post on that too :)

So I hope this didn't bore you to death but this is the end of my lil' tiny post :)

Ta Ta for now,

Looking Out my Window One Morning....

I  have  a  huge  picture  window  in  my  kitchen

 that  looks  out  to  the  backyard,

I  will  stand  in  my  kitchen

and  look  at  the  things  in  my  backyard...

the  pretty  green  grass, the  tomato  plants, the  lavender  plants, the  sunflowers...

You  kinda  get  the  idea....

Well...

the   other  morning  I  was  looking  out...

and  this  is  what  I  saw... 

A  Cat  Smelling  the  Catnip  in  my  backyard

(this is not my cat...I do not even know who it belongs to)

OK...

This is what I saw...

Is the cat smiling...

after I watched him eat some of the plant

Hmmmmm....

is that cat "high" on "Catnip?"

I did a little "google" search...

(The search said it could be like marijuiana or even LSD)

Here he is purring...

He chewed a few more times...

He didn't really want to leave the plant...

This one is of him rubbing up against the little pole

that is holding the colorful wind spinner

(on the left side of the picture)

I  think  the  cat  enjoys  my  backyard  as  much  as  I  do.

So...

Have  you  seen  anything  interesting

  looking  out  your  window  lately?

Take  care...

and  thanks  for  stopping  by,

Mommy 2

Busy Times....Where has the Summer gone?

Well....

Here  it  is  Monday....

I  have  had  my  new  PC (thank you  hubby)  since  a  week  ago  last  Saturday...

Did  I  not   have  enough  photos  to  do  a  blog   post  ?

NO.... I    did.

Anyone  who  knows   me...

  can  tell  you  that  I  almost   always  have  my camera  with  me.

So....

What  has  taken  me  soooooo  long  to  do  a  post?

Life   is   busy...

Life  is  good...

And   time  does  really  fly...

I  want  to  know   where  the  summer  went....

its  almost  time  for  school  to  start  again....

NO    WAY   !!!

ANYWAY....

Here    are  some  recent  pictures

taken  at   the  truck  stop  near  my  house:

This   was   there...

These  children  were   with   me...

(Your   guess  is   as  good  as  mine)

And...this  nice  Jelly Bean  lady

gave  as  some   free  samples !

So...if you  see  that motorhome  parked  somewhere...

look  for  the  Jelly  Bean  Slug  Bug...

and  the  person  giving  out  samples.

Love to All  and Take care,

Mommy 2

Thank you Mommy 2!

This is Mommy 1. I am at Mommy 2's house playing on her new computer while she is ministering at the nursing home with her family.

Mommy 2 is a true friend. She knows a couple of things I love to eat...she cooked them. She knows something that makes me feel rich...she bought it for me. She knew it was my daughter Shineylocks' 16th birthday and we would be away from home...she planned a party.

Mommy 2 has many gifts. I think in the last 6 months, I have leaned on her mercy, her kindness, her loyalty and selflessness more than ever in our relationship. Mommy 2, I thank God for you!

Dressed Alike....

Ok...

So  have  you  ever  gone  to  church...

and noticed

that  you  had  the

  same  color  of  top  or  dress  on  as  someone  else?

And  not  even 

calling  up the other  person  or  people

to  inform  them  that  you  were  wearing  a  certain outfit.

Here are some examples:

Mrs  B  and  Mrs  H

So  of  course... 

when  you  do wear  the same...

you  must  pose  for  a  photo !

Fun Times!

Take  Care and  Love  to All,

Mommy 2
