My cheap day
What a fun day, went to Borders books, got $35 worth of books for $4.00 and change (used a friends and family 20% off coupon and a waldenbooks gift card that I was given) trotted over to Bath and Body works bought 2 $3.00 lip balms and picked up $21 worth of free body lotions, sauntered to Quincy market to the Godiva store,they were passing out samples of french vanilla truffles
The best, got on the train at State street mingled with a huge group of Asian tourists, both of us got on the train free, cause the booth collector waved us thru lol
I love a good deal !

Re: My cheap day
The gal at the Godiva store was too funny" would you like to try a free french vanilla chocolate truffle? " she asks timidly, lol, like who was gonna say no ?
hahahaha!!! This gets my vote for the dumbest question I've been asked in the year 2004.

Re: My cheap day
Next time you go shopping, I'd like to tag along. Now I know why you are called "shoppinqueen" Maybe it would rub off on me since I don't care for shopping at all. Maybe you could inspire me

Re: My cheap day
Chocolate truffles sound heavenly. I did get some hershey kisses dark choc for free. Went to hubby's office and took them off the women's desks. No I wasn't stealing---they get free candy at work so it's all first come first served.
I got the Bath and Body lotions last week. Bought two 3 dollar soaps. I wish they were still giving the aromapherapy things away. I didn't like the scents of two lotions so got the same scent twice. Oh well, can't complain too much. LOL
