Life on a Budget
Definitely print these out. Stores like Rite Aid, Walgreens, Target, CVS, etc pretty frequently put Glad products on sale. Print twice, rules of couponing, try to have at least 2 of each coupon for 2 for and buy one get one deals.
I don’t have a Target near me or I’d shop there more. The closest one is a 40 minute drive from my home. So I normally order from Target online. Well, I ordered my son a $28 science kit that he wanted. It’s going to be put away as part of his Christmas gifts. Well today not only does my item arrive but I got 4 of them!
I double checked my Target.com account and my bank account to be sure I didn’t accidently order 4 somehow. I figured I would know before then anyway but double checked anyway. Sure enough I only ordered and paid for 1. So I called Target and told them what had happened. The girl asked me to hold for a minute. She got back on the phone and told me “We appreciate your honesty with the shipment and thank you for bringing this to our attention. We don’t want to inconvenience you further so you can go ahead and keep the additional items.” Knowing I had more than I paid for I told her I was certainly willing to send them back. She said “We don’t want to inconvenience you further if you don’t want the additional items you are welcome to donate them to a charity of your choice”. I told her that I intended to donate the rest to Toys for Tots or my town’s local toy drive for the holidays then. She again thanked me for my honesty, for bringing it to their attention, and for my willingness to donate the extra items to charity.
Wow so much different than my recent experience with Walmart, which by the way Walmart has still done nothing to refund my money from the unauthorized Xbox Live accounts.
I’ve actually ordered these before and thought I got a good deal when I got them for $7. These styluses work great for my Kindle Fire and on my smartphone. A 3 pack of Styluses on Amazon only 69 cents shipped!!!
I’m so excited and surprised that I made it to the final round of the Macy’s mBlog and Cafemom Blogger contest. Until now, there were 5 bloggers. It’s down to 3 and I made it to the final round!!! All the bloggers are so very good and deserving and it’s really tough competition.
This 3rd round determines the final winner. The winner gets to blog for Macy’s mBlog for 3 months and wins a $1000 Macy’s gift card. The chance to blog for Macy’s would really be a great opportunity for me. With 3 boys and a baby on the way the gift card would certainly come in handy.
