Two more months...

Monday, April 25, 2011

In 2 months, my hubby and I will be moving back to California.  We are anxious, nervous and excited!  One thing that we are excited about doing once we get back to CA is going to the beautiful Santa Cruz, CA.



Santa Cruz was where hubby took me on our first date and it was also where we officially became a couple, which was almost 5 years ago!!  We take a trip there no matter how the weather is and any time of the day.  I can't wait to go back!

One thing I'm sad about leaving Virginia is the stores that double coupons!!!!!!!!!! I did some research and no store in San Jose double coupons!!!!!!! Well...as long as we have drugs stores, Walmart and Target, I'm happy.  Anyways, it'll be an adventure to coupon at stores I've never shopped at before and post my hot deals and trips.

Happy Birthday, Beautiful!

Wednesday, April 13, 2011

Happy birthday to me! Well it was yesterday.   Every year, my FAVORITE make up store, Sephora, hands out a free birthday gift during your birth month if you have a Beauty Insider card.  This month they were giving a nice 6 fl. oz. bottle of Philosophy vanilla birthday cake shampoo, shower gel & bubble bath. All for free. Yay!

New blog.

Monday, April 11, 2011

I'm glad to have a blog to post about all my shopping trips and how much I save while using coupons.
