Savvy shopper

Chuck got a "bonus" from work in the form of a Macy's gift card.  He was bemoaning the fact that we had to pay tax on it and said he didn't think he'd accept another.  I'm always a saver, but in order to make him feel better about the gift card I went to special effort today, spent $109.17 (so really just 9.17 after gift card) at Macy's and between sales and coupons saved $67.37.

Our towels look like that of a college students, a hodgepodge of mismatched towels and beach towels, so I got 6 nice towels and 4 matching hand towels (all chocolate brown).  Our bathroom has fern green (if you're looking at the other colored towels) tile and then I have paint to do the walls robin egg blue.  I also got 3 outfits and socks for the boy and one gift for an upcoming birthday.  Yay me!

Way to go! This is the only way I shop, too, and it's always filled with a sense of accomplishment by the time I'm done.
