Re: SA Wednesday
Mine too except I get so pissed when I have $117 worth of items and I need $120 to get $40 off. I really don't want to buy overpriced earrings or socks just to get the discount.
Man, I sound like a crabby old woman today don't I?
Hi ladies. I am back in the real world today. BOO. I spent some time yesterday catching up on all the threads. I love all the interesting topics lately.
Our vacation was really fun, but we both got a little too much sun. We are both a itchy today! I will post my vacation pictures on my blog soon if anyone is interested.
We also got the CD back from the pictures we had done for my mom as a Mother's Day gift. I am SO pleased with how they turned out. I have them up on FB now, but will add them to my blog.
I hope everyone is safe from the storms. We had major weather in our area. We lost part of our fence and will probably need a new roof and garage door from hail damage. Oh brother...
HA I hear you for sure! I'm like OK do I need some lip gloss or a tank top or earrings. I've bought the lip gloss before and gifted it to my sister. So sometimes it works out!
Nope, I'm the exact same way at stores like that. Or it forces you to spend another $30 for one top just to get $40 off, which completely defeats the purpose. And I refuse to pay $30 for a pair of earrings when I could go get the exact same thing for $12 at Target, and they'd be just as cute.
It will be harder if you are brand loyal but you can still save money. The key for you guys will be to catch a sale when your brand is on sale and buy enough to last you until the next sale, which is generally anywhere from 6 weeks to 3 months later - so you don't have to buy 40 unless you are using 3 tubes of deodorant a week...if you are I think you might have larger things to worry about than coupons...
If you use a specialty salon brand shampoo and will not switch to something that is sold at a drugstore/grocery then you might be out of luck, but as long as you use brands at the store it will work.
There are very few things that I am brand loyal to. DH is moreso than me, but I'm willing to buy whatever is cheapest!

In my experience, it varies. Some brands hardly ever go on sale, if ever, so when they do you would want to stock up, if you can.
The only thing I have been told is to have your responsibilities in present tense, no -ed, even for past jobs. Have you checked out the 9 to 5 board? Sometimes they have good threads...I've only ever lurked.
I do remember seeing a groupon/living social/etc on resume help recently.
Thanks! :-)

I just bought the Groupon for a European Facial for $35 and scheduled an appointment for Friday afternoon.
I am a happy gal.
Oooh fun. Let us know how that goes!
Okay, sounds good. I will put together a starting out with coupons-type post this aftertnoon when I get home.
Thanks Leslie!
Cool, but what does that mean exactly?
It is 70 minutes and says this:
Traditional European Facial -This treatment will leave you relaxed with a smooth and radiant complexion. Your skin will be deep pore cleansing, steam with exfoliation, soothing hydrating facial massage, and is completed with a soothing mask. European facial offers a deep massage that tones and relaxes the facial muscle. In addition, you will receive a relaxing neck, shoulder, arm, hand and scalp massage.
I want one!
Ah sounds completely heavenly!
Where?
I finally tried Greek yogurt yesterday and was surprised that it wasn't terrible.

Just do it!
Which one did you try?
Gah! Can't a person wash their car in peace anymore!?
Very excited about the book club selection for June. This is one I read last year, but really look forward to discussing it with everyone.
Great choice!
I tried the YoCrunch blueberry with granola. Not bad.

Just do it!
I once made banana pudding and left out bananas.
I know I will be too nervous to watch the Mavs game tonight. Ben will try and make me but I don't think I can do it. Part of me hates when we get this deep in the playoffs because I can't enjoy it.

Yesterday, I was so distracted that I rear-ended someone, forgot to get everything out of my cart to pay for it at Joann's and hit "no" when it asked me if the amount was correct.
