Sat down to watch the morning news and scroll through the Facebook feed on my phone only to glance up and discover that my thoroughly indoor cat, Hell Kitty, knows how to open the screen door:
According to her, “Couch Time is Our Time.” If I wasn’t going to pay attention to her she was going to take care of her own entertainment, I guess! She has now spent the rest of the news broadcast on my lap and occasionally right up in my face.
Joined a Bunco club that meets once a month! Believe it- we are this cool.
…but LOVED:
A grocery chain in our area has been bought out by and replaced with another, and the prices have definitely increased. I asked the manager of one store if there was any reason why, and all he could figure was the lack of a direct supplier like the other chain used to have. There’s the economics lesson today: insert middleman, increase prices.
I rarely use coupons lately, but instead of relegating this week’s stack straight to my recycle bin… why don’t I just sneak on over to the pricy new store with a roll of tape and see what kind of mischief I can make?
COUPON BOMBING!
I matched up the coupons from the newspaper’s Sunday ads and taped them to the products. In all, I taped about $13 in coupons on about eight or so products. I sure hope someone who was coming along to buy one of these products got a laugh along with their savings.
No one who worked there seemed to notice… maybe the people watching on the security cameras got a chuckle out of seeing some crackpot lady walking around with a tape dispenser and pile of coupons in her shopping cart stealthily trying to stick coupons around the store… ha.
Clip a few coupons and scatter the savings. It makes for quite an enjoyable afternoon.
Are you annoyed with your teen for spending waaaaay too long in the bathroom?
Looking to elicit a laugh from the loo?
Share this with them the next time they text you from the throne, and maybe your teen might reply to you, too:
Bonus: see here, an actual text conversation from teen who received this very emoji and subsequently replied to her mother!!!
