Coupon Talk

Yesterday I began the day sewing... but quickly changed gears! I needed to take a break from it and gather my thoughts! I pulled out my stack of newspapers, that piled up while we were sick, and I began to clip coupons! I tossed the expired ones and added the new. It felt good to be able to finish something! I feel like my life is getting back on track. Finally.

I am now realizing that I need to keep a mini coupon holder in the van. There have been countless times we've decided to go to a restaurant (or... when we went to Chuck E Cheese) and I did not have my coupons with me. They were sitting at home because.. I didn't expect that I would need coupons that day. Our Zoo day did not include plans for Chuck E's- but we were living on the edge people!! :) You can not stop us! You never know when we will go out of the house for fun! :)

So, we walked in Chuck E's place and as we entered the door hubby asked: "Do you have those coupons with you?" Me: "No." (feeling much regret and wondering what we would pay). Before I knew it .... the lady who worked the door.... she.gave.me.a.COUPON!!!!!!!!!!!!! We had our deal anyway!!! I was so thankful! Our splurge didn't turn into a big ticket item! I do not know the cost we would have paid but I know God does show up in the most peculiar places!!
