The day after...

April 18th, 2006 at 01:24 am

Is anyone else tired today??? I am pooped from all the fun yesterday...I guess I am getting OLD.

I met DD1 at Walmart (anyone else call it wally-world?) today. Bought my summer sandals $12.74 and a few other things we needed. Then we went to Costco and bought a few other needed items. We had Costco dogs and sodas for lunch $3 for both of us....what a deal!)

I spent $68 dollars today in total.

We are having Mexi-food at home tonight. Got dinners all planned for the week ahead...back on budget!!!

I added $14 to my $20 challenge for the week and earned .01 in interest so my new total is $151.64...I am seriously considering purchasing a sewing machine with some of this money....I have always wanted to learn how to sew...but I am still in the pondering stage...I also need a new dining room table (badly)...decisions, decisions....

    Have you access to freecycle or Craigs list where you're at?? Great sewing machine offers on both .........frequently. Sewing machines are something people get & then don't seem to follow through with. I just picked up a wonderful used Viking machine for $50.00. It will last as long as I do now.

    Sewing sure saves money, in my opinion. Fabric seems high these days, but if you just factor in the repairs you can make to existing garments, you will soon pay for the machine.

    My goodness Contrary1, you read my mind!!! You answered several of my questions that would have shown up in my next post (where do I find a good deal, will it save us money)

    Thanks so much...I just signed up for freecycle today so I will start looking, as I am in no big hurry...just one of my 'to-do's' for someday.

    Maybe I can find a good dining room table there too!

    Thanks again!

    I've been wanting to buy a sewing machine for a while now, too! I haven't had good luck with craiglist or freecycle for a sewing machine, personally, but I there are always tons of furniture listings around here. I guess it will depend on your area! Good luck. Smile
