Great shopping

It's been very nice here in PA, yesterday it was 82 for the high with sunny skies and low humidity.  Today the weather is calling for 90 and a bit more humid.  But we can live with that considering it was freezing 2 weeks ago in the low 60's when we were on vacation, but we got threw it and now it's a new day.

Well I had gotten some great buys this week, I have Oscar mayer hot dog coupons 55c on one and a store that doubles has them for $1.50, so 40c for hot dogs is great, these are normally $3.99 a  pack, so a great savings.  So far I have gotten 10 packs, I have 20 more to go.  I have also been getting 12 packets of unsweetened kool aid and 4 packs of kraft single 12 oz cheese for $1 total with my coupons and a $3 catalina that prints out each time I buy the 4 cheese's.  So it's time to toss some cheese in the freezer.  I have also heard Walgreens is having a great bargain on their brand diapers.  If I get by one I may try it, it runs through July 26th.  Read about it at Anne's blog http://www.homesteadblogger.com/mamato6/

She has a very informative blog about all the great buys for the week.  Her post was June 30th. 

If I have time later today I will post more pictures of our kitchen.  The counter tops are in and I put most of the things in the cupboards, I am still waiting for water, well I shouldn't say that, last night John got the cold running, now tonight he will work on the hot.  It certainly will be great to have a kitchen sink, since it's been 6 weeks now I think.  Although the guys that were putting in the counter top asked how long we were without a kitchen, John responded about 6 weeks, they said wow that's not bad, some people are without one for 6 months.. HUH   I can't imagine.  Although I must say the 6 weeks has gone by quicker then I expected, I guess because we have been busy.  The guys said we had good "planning" with the kitchen to have it this far so quickly .  Thanks to my honey John he always was a good planner. 

Today holds for me, to keep putting things back in the kitchen, everything was moved to a back empty bedroom, so as I decide what I want to keep from the old kitchen and what I want to mark for  a yard sale, it either gets washed and put away or tagged for a yard sale.  I was hoping to have one July 26th but I think that is unrealistic with all we have to do yet with the kitchen, so August it will have to be I guess.  Anything I make will be Christmas money for me, wish me luck, I have so much to get rid of in the basment your head would spin. 

Well off to talk to my sister Lori, she is calling..

Have a great Wednesday today on your Homestead, we will....
