....hair dye

I haven't dyed my hair in a very long time but recently thought about it after getting a coupon for a Free bottle of John Frieda. Every month manufacturers put out tons of coupons for hair dye and every month they end up expiring because I don't use them. Well I used them this month!!! 
CVS currently has lots of select hair dye at 75% off making them around $2.25 each. I personally don't need 47 bottles of hair dye for myself so I will be giving a couple away to family and the rest I will donate to a shelter for women.

My 5 Store Adventure...

How much did I pay out of pocket for all this?.....$10.75....Not bad at all but it gets better.

With the current monthly promotions I got back $41.00 in Extra Bucks making this a $30.25 money maker as couponers call it.

....welcoming 2012

I hope everyone had a great holiday and Santa brought you what you asked for. It's the new year and I am ready to get back into doing things I haven't really done since having my son. I am setting some goals up for myself and my family for the new year. Here's what I got so far:


#1~Lose Weight- there's an original resolution, right!?!
#2~More Patience-Can be very hard with a toddler and a infant but I have to work on it.
#3~Take a vacation-Haven't had a real vacation in 4 years
#4~Buy a House- Hopefully by years end we will be home owners
#5~Bake more Cakes-but give them away or #1 is out the window ☺
#6~USE MORE COUPONS-which will help us reach goals #'s 3 & 4


I hope everyone is able to achieve their resolutions this year.
