    Thumbs up Bartering for our supplies

    Dh is not working as most of you know and our friends own the hardware store here in our small town. Our friend just found out he has severe diabetis and will need some help in the store loading and unloading things.

    He has ask dh to help him when he can and in return we will get our insulation and gpyroc for our kitchen and m/bedroom for dh helping out. What a savings that means to us and in turn dh is helping out a friend.

    Gotta love it!!

    Now if I could just find a way to do that with out groceries, it would be perfect.
