In the continued spirit of milking the Blogaversary thing for as long as possible, today I am answering more reader questions! Jen B. wanted to know what my greatest CVS deal ever is. Well, here it is! If you read my vacation post, you know my parents just celebrated their 40th wedding anniversary. I really wanted to get them a digital camera for their anniversary but gifts of this magnitude are generally not in the budget. However, being the shrewd CVSer that I am, I noticed a few months ago that CVS carries digital cameras! So I started saving my ECBs and waiting for a sale. Around the end of May, CVS had the Kodak Easy Share C713, on sale for $99.99 and you got a FREE 512 MB memory card with it! I knew it was time to strike.
I had 84 ECBs and a $5 off coupon. After using all those, I was able to get the camera and the memory card for just $11.03!!! I was so excited!! My parents loved it and my brother gave me $10 to chip in, so my OOP was $1.03. I LOOOOVE CVS!!
Bethany wanted to know what my favorite blog to read is, if I had to pick just one. That is a ROUGH question Beth!! I don’t think I could read just one, I might die. But when I read the question, the first one of my daily reads that popped into my brain was Momo Fali’s. Momo is a hilarious mommy of two and a BUCKEYE like myself. And she is an amazing storyteller and writer. So go see her and tell her I sent you!
Now I shall answer a question from my dear friend Krista: What the heck would I do with a day to myself?? I am boring, so I would probably spend the day relaxing in my bed or on the beach, reading some good books and alternating shots of Starbucks and Mountain Dew. And I would definitely have a massage in there somewhere!! I know, I am a wild and crazy gal.
My sister-in-law Ruthie wanted to know if Emily and I did anything bad together as kids and got in trouble. The answer, sadly, is no. We were as boring saintly then as we are now! The worst thing we did was move heaven and earth to exclude Em’s sister Anna from our Rummy games. I know we will answer to God for that at judgment day! We’re sorry Annie! Forgive us!! We LOVE you! Anna has taken her revenge by being much skinnier and craftier than we are. So, she showed us!!
Mm kay, that is it for me at the moment. Now tomorrow is your last day to pick Emily’s brain, so leave a comment with a question for her or email her! She has some skeletons in her closet!! Drag ’em out people!!
Now go enter our contest…time’s a wastin’!
I can’t believe you didn’t say my blog is your favorite!! I may have to un-FAcebook friend you. But I would still like to win your contest, so….I will keep you around until I win. But I am seriously going to have to think about what to do after that 🙂
Happy Blogerversary. or however you spell a made up word like that. I would say that I am offended by your lack of mentioning my site, but I know the truth! There are others to consider and I can take it…
Nice camera buy!
