We are a family of three in transition. We spent years being frugal and are now at a crossroad. We'd like to retire from our day jobs in two years or less. Our retirement goals are to provide our daughter with the best education she desires; travel; and find new careers - perhaps part-time that we really enjoy. I hope to post both "frugal" and "personal finance" information. NOTE: I am not a professional on either subject. My posts are purely entertainment :)

10/30 Expressions
Last night, I stopped at Rite Aid to purchase the 3 12 Pack of Pepsi for 8.XX and get a $2 UP coupon. With the UP $, I planned to add to my Halloween candy stash - 2 more $1 packs of 8 candy bars. The $2 UP did not print, but the manager was kind enough to adjust the price of my candy to free :) My husband just stopped by the feed store to get the free Nutra dog food. The stuff is normally $13.XX - a very freebie indeed. He and my daughter will use up the rest of the used book store credit this afternoon. My daughter and I each have the Bath & Body Works coupon for a free full sized lotion with any purchase and one for any lip item with any purchase. Normally we purchased the $1 gift bags, but recently, we have been able to get travel sized lotions for $1. We may stop there and their sister store, Victoria's Secret because we also have free panty coupon. I used a bunch of coupons on my groceries and mailed in for a $10 rebate - so, I stayed within my budget. The weather has cooled. This morning was the first in which we turned the heat on. Tomorrow is Halloween here.
