I just hit WalMart. I usually load up twice a month and put the amount on the Wally charge Card. I pay it off each month. I am slowly learning to just pay by check. So $117.00 went in my check book register. I think it is the beter way to go.....instead of carrying cash.....I will write checks for large purchases.
I had a great thought--I have been wanting a new purse...mine is so worn. I looked at all the handbags at WalMart and they were so awful and dowdy....or they had Winnie the pooh on them??? They were terrible and so badly made. I do not get that design at all! Tinker Bell purses and Winnie the Pooh???? I am over forty years old! I decided to make it! I bought all the supplies at WalMart in the fabric crafting area....and it came out to about $5.00 for ALL the supplies.
I bought a cute med sized washed denim tote bag...some pink and green grossgrain ribbons and some lace and beads to embelish. So I guess necessity is the mother of invention. I will probably sew it but you could easily glue it with the hot glue gun.
My neighbor stopped over to give me some watermelon.....that was a nice freebie. We have a ton of cucumbers in the garden. That is Ok with me as I love them and never tire of them!
Children are at the ex's...so no cooking tonight.
Writing more checks
