School Fees

Baby E will be starting school July 23rd. I can't believe my baby will be in Kindergarten. Are you kidding me. When we got to grad school he was just a hope in his mother's heart, now he will be in school. Amazing. Anyway we went to the school yesterday to register him and we had an $80 book fee to pay. I said to Dr. J, "Holy cow! I thought they were going to get cheaper. Now I realize they are just going to get more expensive. What if we had three going into school." Dr. J said, "Just wait until we have to start paying the fees at junior high and high school." And then I said, "Well we are only committed to three at this point...maybe we should just keep it at that :)" And so that is how school fees may have changed our planned family number!

Walgreen's RR Deals

There have been some great register rewards deals at Walgreens THIS WEEK. A register reward is a coupon that prints out after you buy a product that can be used at Walgreens for a specific amount. It is kind of like Walgreens money :) Sorry I haven't mentioned them I've just been busy.

18 packs of scrunci's are 2.00 this week and are giving a $2 RR
ChapStick brand ChapStick is 2.00 this month and is giving a $2 RR
The Colgate Max White Toothbrush is 3.50 and giving a $3.50 RR
New Skintimate Moisturizing Cream Shave is 2.99 this month and is giving a $3.00RR
Unilever products are giving a $6 RR when you buy six. This had included the .99 cent trial sizes of dove or degree deo

This interesting thing about this is that you can actually "roll" RRs if they come from seperate companies. So I can buy scrunchis for $2.00 and then use my 2RR in a different transaction to buy ChapStick, costing me just tax and getting another $2RR. (sometimes you have to throw a filler in...especially in Illinois. They have these pesky little rules where I live about coupons not covering any of the tax.)

Egg Suit!

This weekend I bought a maternity bathing suit at the One Week Boutique. I'm only going to be pregnant for four weeks of our pool being open so I didn't want to spend a load on something that would barely be worn. I found this pretty cute brown suit there, never worn, for super cheap and so I bought it. Today I tried it on. Little E came in and started laughing so hard. I said, "Sweetie what is so funny." He said, "the bathing suit." I said, "What is so funny about my bathing suit." He grabbed my huge baby belly and said, "you are so fat in this bathing suit," and then he just kept laughing and laughing and laughing. Wow, thanks kid!
