I believe I owe you a couple beers. If you want to meet up locally tonight, give me a call.

Cleaned up the snow, about fifteen inches or so, not inclluding drifts. Finish turning darters, then start drilling holes. Wait for the call from the in-laws that thier driveway has been plowed, then do the clean-up. Couponed food shopping with the wife. Went to Wallgreens with her a couple of days ago, and between the sales, which were goreat, and her coupons she paid $1.95 for $88.?? worth of stuff.

Meeting with the lawyer tonight. Home inspection tomorrow. Fingers crossed for a new house.

Sunday going to head out to Holyoke to do a belated Xmas Xchange with Shawno and Mikey. Afterwards back to Waltham and getting stuff ready for the Sabbit.

I literally walked to 1.5 miles to Waltham center in the blizzard this AM to catch the 6:20 train. It was strangely peaceful and very nice.

Everybody stay safe and warm!

I waited till my upwind neighbor finished his driveway, then I did mine and blew all the snow down the block,

Hobbit 3d, then some beer and football, Saints/Eagles in the teens, Bengals/Chargers in the teens.

Should be epic start of the playoffs.

Even the sales slip said we saved 98%. She does it quite often in the seventies and eighty percentile. We coupon because we buy for my mother and her parents who are in the mid to late eighties.

WE

Finished cleaning up a few minutes ago as I had to work today and didn't want to waste my time this morning while it was still coming down. Heading down Cape to check on the place down there - dig out a bit and spend some time with the fam just kind of bumming around, probably make it a day trip depending on how things go. thinking about trying to hit the ice maybe Sunday

We don't buy anything on impulse, just what we all use. I was going to scan and paste these two slips but its a pain. Buy on sale and always with coupon. I bought six cans of progresso soup on sale yesterday and I only paid a $1.62. Girl at the register is looking at the screen and how much money she had to give me back from the fiver and she was confused. She looks at me and says why doesn't everyone pzy attention and shop like this. It helps to have a wife who has math degrees.

Went to stop and shop today. Bought four boxes of kellogs cereal on sale plus get six dollars back when you buy four. Used a coupon as well. The four boxes cost $.29 a piece.
