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 :)

1/22 Expressions
Frugal deeds for the week: We are celebrating our wedding anniversary early. My husband's wish - to eat at Ruth Chris for once in his life. We went to Costco and got discounted gift cards - $100 for $79 - plus Costco rebate, plus AMEX rebate. Since we will be taking our daughter, we got 2 card packs (4 $50 cards). Sure hope that covers it. And on another note, I have to say I am very happy with the Gulf Coast Claims Facility - they are 110% better than BP ever was. Oh, we stopped at BBW today and got the facebook freebie (travel sized lotion) and used the coupon for a free travel sized product with any purchase (got a 2 pack of wallflower refills for $5).
