What I should have been doing...

So....I got off work early today and of course what I should have done is worked on my portfolio that is due on Monday that is worth 50% of my grade in the summer class I'm taking. I of course did sit down and write out what I'm going to type for the first section but then came up with anything else to do but that. One of the things I do is read The Prudent Patron. She is so fun to read because she gives me everything I need to get a great deal on something. Well I was reading this and found that I could get a 64 count tub of wipes for .71 cents at Walgreens today only! That got my attention. Not because I have five kids and need to stock up ( I wish that were the case ) mostly because that is an excellent price and I have some friends that are having babies soon, one of which is having her shower next week so I thought it would be good to add to the baby gift basket I'm preparing for them.

So I went to walgreens and bought

4 pkgs of huggies wipes

2 bottles of water

1 small bottle of visine

1 24pk of crayola crayons

3 pks 10 count of #2 pencils

all for .....

drum roll.....

$8.00 even PLUS I got back $3.oo in register rewards to use on anything I want at walgreens so minus that $5.00 for everything! Are you kidding? I was ecstatic. Also the friendly cashier gave me a coupon back for a free redbox =)

Alright now back to work on this portfolio but I wanted to share my amazing shopping trip today.
