This week i'm all about the Cash Card Deal. ANY time they are doing cash cards vs extrabucks I will work out a deal- There are several reasons that I actually prefer the cash cards , and I will actually make a separate post about that here in a bit! I am the same way with the Makeup Bag offers usually too... lol This is my Plan for this week... I have a spend $40 household CRT and a $3/12 Laundry CRT I am using - I am pretty sure that in the last week or two everyone has pretty much ended up with these CRT's.. I actually got them last week and this week! As A special note.. sometimes pairing 2 CRT's that have price thresholds- sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't- It just kind of depends.. so just know your mileage might vary!

I know that my mom and I went out and about Wed, but we actually had a fight early that morning ...and then some other things have been going on- which kind of relates to my blog title- which is actually the name of an episode of little house- anyways, I can't do anything about that situation though and it is driving me crazy...

See right after the wreck my mom was in a super crazy nice … [Read more...]
