    Default fun day sharing frugal holiday shopping :)

    had the best day today . took my friend who is having money issues out to the mall and did some bargain budget shopping " debbi style" as she calls it .

    we were able to use two 10 off 10 JCP coupons and a 5 off 5 sears coupon and get her daughter a shirt and nice gloves - a shirt for her dd to give y dd ( she insisted on that our 14 yos are BF ),and her two boys ( 17 and 20 ) tees they will like . she only spent 1.80 out of pocket

    i used my 15 off 15 to get a free Phillies clock for my family room and my sears 5 off 5 to get my 10 yo a shirt that has earbuds with it for only 1.99 after coupon !!

    Wow, great deals. I got a good deal too. Since I bought some magazines for Christmas and a birthday gift, the company granted me a $5 gift card. Well, today they had Woman's Health magazine on sale for $5, so I got a free copy of the magazine after using the free gift card for myself.

    my friend had an odd blessing come her way she rarely uses cc but has a few store cards in case the kids need something when she has no cash - she paid a boscov charge off last month and had somehow mistakenly paid it off twice -she now has a 70$ credit at boscovs to shop with , we are going tomorrow with her list to finish up her shopping - but still trying to do it frugally as possible because whats left they will send her a check for after 60 days .
    i have 2 beer glasses left from a 6 pack my dh was given ( and never used he doesnt drink anymore for over 17 years so why his sister who knew that gave him beer glasses who knows LOL ) as a gift about 5 years ago 3 years ago i filled them with candy and gave to some of the men on my list - have 2 left so my friend can buy some candy to fill them with

    i also am shopping for a 6 yo in a shelter with her mom someone at work told me about. hoping to see what i could find for ~ 10$ on sale . getting some coupons ready too i have a JCP 10 off 10 i can also use for that .
