If your not happy....

Tell the maker of your product! Recently, I've had 2 luvs diapers tear on me before I got them on my son. Waste of money! I wrote them an email and are sending out compensation for me. They we're cheaper than the Walmarts Parents choice kind with a coupon. They were very nice and replied right away.

Scrapbooking deals!

Today, I was on the search for some 1$(or around there) clear stamps! I first went to the scrapbooing-warehouse.com and found some on sale for 1.89. I HATE paying for shipping! They wanted like 7$ shipping and my scrapbooking budget was 25$. So I went to joann.com and found the same stamps for 1.39$ each! Plus I did my google-ing and found a free shipping code!!

I also got a block to mount the clear stamps on, and a "Fall Rub-on stack" that was on clearence for 3$!

Heres the stamps I got. I ended up getting 11 different ones.

I ended up getting everything for under 22$! DH will be proud!

Car Insurance Savings

I saved money switching our car insurance!!

Zack was paying 155$(State Farm) a month for his and mine was 72$(Allstate) a month. Since we still live at my moms house she switched it to hers so everybody could drive all the cars(we have 3 cars). Our total now is 143$(Allstate) a month...FOR BOTH OF US! Thats a savings of 86$ a month! We also got the discount for being married.
