    Default Working on those grocery goals

    Tonight I went to the grocery store for just a couple of items. I was tempted, oh so very very tempted to buy a magazine. But I resisted, telling myself that I have plenty of items sitting at home to read and I dont need any more. Then guess what! When I got home, in the mail was a free copy of All You Magazine! YES !!!!

    Now if I could just figure out how to start getting free food too! LOL

    Have any of you resisted buying something and then somehow, suddenly gotten what you had wanted as a freebie or a gift?
    Kind of neat how the universe provides sometimes.

    That would be nice. If you figure it out, let me know.

    Way to go on resisting temptation!

    Good for you for resisting. I usually tell myself I'll buy it at a bookstore where it's cheaper, but then I forget about it and never do (but at least it saves me money) LOL
