I Love a Deal!

I just had great shopping experience. I had a coupon for JC Penny to save $10 on a purchase of $10 or more. Of course I looked for the item closest to $10 that I could find. I found a khaki skort (not sure what I think about a skort, but I tried it on the best I could with my huge belly and it felt really comfortable.) Anyway, it was marked $12.99 and remember, there is no tax on clothing in PA. When I got it up to the counter it rang up for $10.39 - it was actually an extra 20% off! So after my coupon it was just $0.39 and I even had EXACT change in my wallet. I told Johnny that if it wasn't 9:30 in the morning I would have called Kerry Tuttle on the spot, because he just didn't get why it was so exciting for me.

Other than that, we're in Williamsport for Abby's 1st birthday parties. Today there is one at Paulette's Dad's house and then tomorrow afternoon there is a big shindig here at John and Paulette's house. We came in yesterday afternoon and Corban got to play in the baby pool. The water was freezing, but he had so much fun! He went down for what we thought was going to be a nap at about 6:30 and by 8:45 we tried to get him out of bed and wake him up for a little while, but he wasn't having it. We took him back to bed and he slept until 5:40. I think we're going to try to pass on the afternoon nap again today and hopefully he'll sleep 11 hours again tonight (I think we'll try putting him down a little later though). I really dread getting rid of that nap, but if it makes him sleep better at night, I'm not gonna argue.

That made me smile. Job well done - quite awesome.

What's funny is when I read "I love a deal" I thought - I'm gonna need a shout out. :)

Why don't men understand the greatness of a good deal? They sure do complain when you spend too much though. Ugh.
