Checking in for August! Back to school tomorrow, YEAH! It's hot as heck here. I think it was 105 today, probably about the same tomorrow. I think I am melting, lol. My son needed a new phone, I was going to go to Sam's like HanShotFirst. I figured I would never get there early enough to get one of the 2 or 3 they probably had available. I ended up just getting it online with $100 instead of $200. Besides, I got his several days before the one day sale, I didn't want to wait and then end up not getting one. His processor or something actually died. He could not do anything related to phone service (make calls, texts, receive calls), he could only send and receive apple messages over wifi. Didn't want to make him suffer any more than he already had. I have actually upgraded on black friday twice. Walmart was ridiculous took about 45 minutes (and I was even 1st in line and had an appointment), Target however took a whole 10 minutes and I was out of there, gift card and all. Only a few months to go until BF....can't wait, although I cannot think of a thing that I will need to purchase. I am looking at building a custom home which will take about a year, so maybe BF 2019 I will have plenty of stuff to look for. Well, everyone stay cool....until next month.

OK, it's July 4th. Too early to see any fireworks just yet. I will be 52 on Sunday. We have an excessive heat warning for Friday through Sunday. Still haven't found my dream home, but haven't given up hope. I like the fanny pack idea, not the water bottle or cup, because then you have to carry it and I don't have any more hands. I also don't do bumper stickers (I am leasing). School starts on August 8th, which is way too early. Just working around the house today and thought I would stop and post.

Well, yes it is June! School let out on the 31st. Starts back up in August. I can't believe how they have shifted the year around. Used to be you got out in June and went back after labor day. Movie day was great. Saw Show Dogs, Breaking In, Rampage and I Feel Pretty. My favorites were Rampage (even though totally unbelievable) and I Feel Pretty (good message about inner beauty being more important than physical beauty). We left the house at about 8:40am and got home about 10pm. A lot going on in June. Weather is finally starting to look better. We've been having cold and hot intermittently, I just hope the weather has made up it's mind. Well, we are one month closer. Sorry about those that forgot to post. See the rest of you at the finish line.

OK, don't know how my reminder got away from me, but glad I realized I hadn't posted yet! Trying to plan movie day for memorial day. My daughters and my granddaughter and I go see about 4 movies in one day. We have breakfast before and dinner after. We usually do it on a holiday when not that many folks go to the movies. It's a lot of fun. But it takes planning so you can schedule the movies and not overlap. Then my 26th anniversary is on June 6th. trying to make plans for that as well. 5 or 6 months to go, then we will be special t-shirt recipients. Everybody keep going, let's all make it through the months!

So before the month of April passes by, I am here to post. The weather can't seem to make up its mind. Cold one day, hot the next.Just got back from a woman caregiver's retreat in the mountains, same thing..cold Friday, warm Saturday and Sunday. I used to be a MICHE handbag rep, still have inventory, so got my online store up and running.that took quite a while. I was eyeing my tshirts from black fridays off the past, can't wait to add another one to my collection! Sent from my SM-G955U using GottaDEAL mobile app

Well, my daughter and I started a diet plan. We have both lost about 15 pounds. Other than that, the tax changes that were supposed to "save most people money" cost me $2200! It's been cold, waiting for spring. Still limping a little from my sprained ankle. That's it for March. Sent from my SM-G955U using GottaDEAL mobile app

Just a question...in the January post it said there were 67 or 65 people left and you only show 3 dropping out, but say we have 57 left? Am I missing something? Sent from my SM-G955U using GottaDEAL mobile app Nevermind, i think i have my months mixed up, this is March. Sent from my SM-G955U using GottaDEAL mobile app

What happened to winter? It's been in the high 70's and 80's. Been recovering from my sprained ankle. Trying to get back in the swing of things. OTR microwave on the blinks, $500 to repair, over 10 years old, guess i have to SHOP for a new one!! Can't wait until black friday, need a microwave. Sent from my SM-G955U using GottaDEAL mobile app

Checking in for January! It's been rather warm for January. I started the new year off right by falling on my front porch and spraining my ankle. Now I'm in a boot and on crutches. To top it off it's my right ankle, so i can't drive! I hope this is not an indicator of how my 2018 is going to be

Ok, here's my December post. This was the first black Friday we didn't go to Walmart. It was really different. Not as fun as usual. Missed the "crazy". I did a lot of shopping online. Then I just ran around for odds and ends. Then ups lost my packages from best buy that took me 2 hours to order with the crashing website! They delivered them to the wrong address (thank goodness we have cameras). Then they just showed up one day.

After all of that shopping i could use a giftcard! We were pooped. Especially since we shopped Thursday afternoon and night and then had to get up bright and early and do it again on friday! Sent from my SM-G955U using GottaDEAL mobile app

Cool idea, I'm on it! I can't wait to get next year's shirt. I wore mine two days in a row, Thursday and Friday. I did get asked about my shirt. Of course i told them about the best black friday website! Sent from my SM-G955U using GottaDEAL mobile app

We're supposed to be in the 90s today so should be nice weather

It keeps doing different stuff, i keep hoping this means it is going to go through, but nothing yet!?!?!? Sent from my SM-G955U using GottaDEAL mobile app

Now it jumped back on and on my checkout page???? Sent from my SM-G955U using GottaDEAL mobile app

Now the website on computer and mobile went down Sent from my SM-G955U using GottaDEAL mobile app

You'd think so! Sent from my SM-G955U using GottaDEAL mobile app

How do you get through??? Tried different browsers, mobile, computer nothing working! Sent from my SM-G955U using GottaDEAL mobile app Ok, now got past delivery, but can't get to payment info.....

Ditto, won't let me checkout! Called number too! Sent from my SM-G955U using GottaDEAL mobile app

my main weapon this year is gift cards and points savings!!! I managed to amass $415 in target giftcards, several hundred from costco (when I bought my car) and over $200 from shopping rebate points (ibotta, checkout 51, etc.). I was also able to get 2 of the black friday deals on cell phones already which added another $300 in target giftcards! Used giftcards to buy one of my bigger items already on sale at target. Working out great so far. I also have paypal credit which would give me 6 months to pay for any large ticket items purchased online.

I got my t-shirt several days ago. I love it. Can't wait to wear it out shopping.

I am already shopping online. Have gotten my major items without waiting and fighting in line. Will have less to worry about at the stores. Still have to go to the store for some excitement. Might also wait in line for some free gift cards.

Kohl's has a 5.5qt on sale right now for $59.99 and there is a $10 coupon off if a $50 order making it $49.99. Sent from my SM-G955U using GottaDEAL mobile app

Brad, will we be able to wait for the results of the last t-shirt contest to order? Sent from my SM-G955U using GottaDEAL mobile app

I got a phone last year. You get in line before 6pm to sign up for a timeslot to get a phone. The timeslots begin at 8pm after all the excitement dies down. I got there about 2 hours early and was first in line to sign up. Got to run around and shop until 8pm. Sent from my SM-G955U using GottaDEAL mobile app
