Today is my mom’s 50th 35th birthday. I didn’t get to fly home to see her today, but I wanted to make her proud. She has taught me to buy things on clearance. As a kid, I would be told to clip coupons during my summer breaks, and we’d drive to Auburn, NY to go to the Wegman’s that doubled coupons to get a bigger savings.
I have been clipping coupons for almost 2 years now and call my mom to tell her about great deals. Today was no exception! Happy birthday mom, I spent TWO CENTS on all of this stuff.
I have proof. A SAVINGS of 103%! Darn taxes forced me to pay two cents. Oh well, I’ll take it! The sad thing is I never pay for anything with cash these days, and it was weird looking in the bottom of my purse for two lousy pennies.
Happy birthday mom! xo
