Anybody know if Canada has something similar to CVS? Nothing I have been able to find! The only programs I can find are Shoppers Optimum points or HBC Rewards at Zellers. But that can take a long time to build up. Pharmaplus often does BOGO sales. Do you have a Zellers near you? They sometimes put on good deals. When the P&G Brandsaver came out, they put most of their P&G products on sale and took the coupons of it. Then they gave you a $10 giftcard if you spent $25. It was a very good deal!

How about Walgreens? We do have some Walgreens, but not anything close enough to make it worthwhile to shop there. There have been rumors about our town getting one but the city council always shoots them down for some reason or another. Walmart is pretty much it here. One of the cons of small towns...

Oh, poor Isaac! Oh, that must have been so terrible! I just hate thinking of stuff like that! Jessica, can you send me the Walgreen's tutorial too? I LOVE Walgreens! If anyone has a Rite Aid nearby, every Tuesday most Rite Aid brand stuff is 10% off with your Rite Aid card.

and two consuming insane amount of batteries for all their noise-making devices) We have found that rechargeable batteries and charger are a great investment. They cost more up front but we have quickly paid for ours in just our remote batteries and other such things. We bought a couple of "sets" of the sizes we use and keep one set charged to replace. Plus they usually have a quick charge for "emergencies". you really have to know whether the items can use rechargeable though...most toys say not to use them for some reason (not sure if it's them wanting you to buy more batteries or if it's a real reason). On that battery note though...a friend of mine back a few years ago...her mom asked her boys what they wanted for Christmas one year and they all yelled out BATTERIES!!!!!! So that's what they got...and they were all so excited....lol.

Hello everyone and Happy Belated Mother's Day! We have been without electricity since 6 a.m. yesterday morning and it just got turned back on around 7 tonight. We had a tornado go through a city not far from us and it knocked our electricity out. The city is pretty damaged from what we hear so we are thankful that all we have had to deal with is no electricity. We were blessed to be able to take our stuff from our freezer and refrigerator to the youth room and put it in the refrigerator there. So we lost almost none of our food, some we did like condiments, but not a big deal. I have learned a huge lesson...KEEP UP WITH LAUNDRY! I had to go to my friends today to do a load of laundry, but I am grateful to have a friend who will open up her home to me like that. I am really nervous ladies! I just got a call asking if I would do the scrapbooking class at the women's retreat this weekend. YIKES!!! Someone told her that I am really good (I am flattered by that) and she is in a bind as the lady who was suppose to do it is unable too. I am at a loss as to what to do for this class. It is only an hour long and I am basically need to come up with a project to do with them. I was thinking of doing something simple like the paper bag albums...that is scrap booking right? Someone help me because I have never shown someone how to scrapbook at all.

The paper bag albums are fun, or you could do a themed page, or series of themed pages although those are easier to do with pictures. What about making cards?

Wouldn't it be simpler to demonstrate scraping a page than assembling a paper bag albumn? I scrap, so if you want to PM me any ideas you have or anything, feel free!

I am waaaaayyyy behind on things today. hubby decided to go on the net last night and go to some motorbike pages and had all this junk popping up, including an antivirus warning so he clicked "install" and we got a major virus. I have spent the last 3 hours this morning on the phone getting it fixed, $140 later.... grrrrr

Tattoo is Wednesday or Thursday, and ya'll will have pictures as soon as I get home, LOL. Sandy, I'm trying to talk DH into "letting" me get my nose pierced(he will never tell me I can't, but I want his approval) but he is convinced they look like shiny freckles

Jess - Would you please send me the Walgreens tips? They just built a new one in the town close to us and I'd love to see if I can get our toilitries (sp?) for a good price.

Thanks for the Walgreens info, Jessica! I love shopping there for non-food stuff (their food is expensive) but I love all Walgreens brand medicines and baby soap and diaper rash creams and stuff. quote:

We can't really afford Norton or something really good like that, but we use AVG Free. it might be worth it to just have that on your computer. I couldn't imagine having to pay that much to get a virus off. quote:
Christina, How's the quitting going? I'm praying for you! I'm still not smoking. The patch makes me feel like I'm satisfied like I just smoked, but the habit part is hard. It's like I finish loading th dishwasher, and I wanna go smoke just because it's a habit, or I get the kids in the car and I wanna smoke because it's a habit, not because I'm having a genuine craving. But, I'm feeling depressed because it's like I'm mourning a loss. It's weird. I'm hoping I'll get some energy like people are saying because I feel like I just wanna sit on the couch and watch Elmo all day. Thank you for asking, Zippy.

ROFL laughing at the punching him in the face! I can imagine to both be quitting at the same time it would be good for the mutual support, but drive you both batty too! Will continue to pray for you both!
