And my birthday comes to an end

November 29th, 2006 at 02:58 am

Ah, it's almost over. I had a nice day, although nothing terribly special happened. Work, shopping, then out to dinner with my DH, brother and SIL, and my parents (their treat for my b-day). I received two phone calls and three e-cards from people scattered about the state. All in all, a nice day Smile
I found some nice deals shopping today. I spent $69.13, but a lot of that was on some good meat deals. I bought way more kielbasa than is good for anyone's health, as it is a great thing to have on hand for last-minute meals (I make a great jambalaya). I bought that on clearance (exp. 11/29) for $1.60 each (reg. $3.99) with $1 coupon. It's in the freezer now, ready for use at a moment's notice. I also got a large package of chicken breasts for $1.99lb and two Angus beef chuck roasts (BOGO). I bought Reynold's wrap for $1 with a $.50 coupon, doubled (I don't find free things often, but it really makes my day when I do!). I saved $44.78 with shoppers club and coupons - that's about 40%. I'm happy with that.
Another day at home tomorrow - I love my schedule. Working three days a week (M, T, Th) means that when I have a day off, like for Thanksgiving, I can go nearly an entire week without being in the office. I thought there would be a backlog of work for me today, but my voice mail was pleasantly empty of any urgent matters Smile
And the best news of all - every last bit of Thanksgiving leftovers are gone before I even got sick of them!

    Happy Birthday!

    Sounds like you had a nice one. Way to go on the meat. We seldom see any deals locally like you describe. Not a big beef consuming region, so not a lot of excess. Chicken, that we have.

    Enjoy your leisure.

    Smile
