fi'ty cent


That's what I paid for all of this stuff at CVS today. This may have been the actual first time I did what I intended to do, didn't forget a step or buy the wrong size product. I only paid two shiny quarters from my pocket for this stuff, used coupons from the paper, CVS and my friend, Jenny. I also used some of CVS' "magic money" aka ECB's. I walked away with 11 more ECB's for next time.
Today Steve declared, "I'm a believer." (Up until now I think he truly believed I would drive our monthly budget into the ground AND that my friend Jenny is actually a paid employee of CVS- luring unsuspecting, truly unorganized people like me into the CVS trap.) I think today helped prove both theories to be untrue. So, Jenny, you and I are both off the hook and I'm good to hunt down a fun bargain for another week.
PS: To those friends who have revealed that they secretly love my CVS debacles and look forward to reading about them; I'm sorry to say it looks like you're going to have to go elsewhere for your jollies :)

I am really glad Steve no longer thinks I am a liar. That would've made house church a *little* awkward after a while... :)
Way to go! I am so proud of you! I hope you have many, many happy CVS runs in your future!
