Shopping @ Dirtcheap in Alabama

OK there is this store called Dirtcheap in Brewton, Alabama where you can go to find junk.  Yes that's what I call it junk.  Many times it is good junk, but it is stuff that gets sent back from Target stores around the country.  You can sometimes find some good things here, but it takes some looking to do this.  You also have to know what's a bargain and what is not.  I found only 3 things that I could find a good use for.  I purchased a Clemson lunch bag for my coworker, a French Calendar for my daughter to decorate her walls, and a cover for a calculator I found at a thrift store. They had a lot of things I could have put in my treat box, but at 50 cents each I can do better, so I left them in the store.  I would like to say that the cashier I had was very rude.  I made two purchases and she didn't say thank you once.  She also turned around and begin talking to her co-workers before I finished at the register.

Chick Fil A Calendars Great Investment

My family went to the dentist for one of yearly cleanings and afterwards we decided to have lunch at Chick Fil A.  In the past, I have always had coupons to use at Chick-Fil-A, but on this occasion we didn't have one coupon to use.  Where were my coupons?  I am a faithful Chick-Fil-A calendar purchaser, so normally I always have coupons.  Well here's the story my husband LOST my coupon envelope filled with restaurant coupons and gift cards.  Oh how that angered me, but being the loving wife I am I cried and forgot all about them.  We are talking about coupons from at least 3 years of expired calendars for their coupons never expire.  To top it off this year I forgot to purchase my usual 6 calendars to off set my summer feeding cost.  Chick-Fil-A calendars really help my family of five get through a busy summer of traveling and eating out. To sum up my story we spent $34.00 for lunch at Chick-Fil-A.   If you are a fan of Chick-Fil-A as my family and I are make sure you purchase Chick-Fil-A calendars at the end of the each year.  The begin selling them in November and continue through January.  The calendars are $6 each and contain over $30 in free food and the coupons never expire.  Here's looking forward to the end of the year, so I can purchase new calendars so that I can enjoy one of my favorite restaurants at a discount.

    

Stepping Out of the Box

I recently purchased Publix yogurt because it was on sale for 25cents a cup. I normally never by store brand yogurt but for 25cents I thought I couldn't go wrong.  Wow to my surprise the Publix yogurt was awesome.  Now I still have to get this by my picky eaters, but in my opinion it is as good as the big guys.  This is my personal opinion and I wasn't compensated for my thoughts.  If you are intersted hurry out to stock up, because it is really good.  I tried the fruit on the bottom strawberry lowfat yogurt.

Great Deal on Coke Products at CVS

RCA products SUCK!!!

When I purchased my home I purchased 2 RCA TVs at the same time.  When the small TV went out in February of 2012 I didn't think much about it.  I just assumed that the TV had done all that it could do and that was the end.  I accepted the TV not working, but a month later the big screen RCA TV went out.  These TV are programmed to go out in a given amount of time.  This is a horrible thing to do to a consumer.   You purchase a product thinking that it will last you a while and they both go out within months of each other.  I will never ever in life buy another RCA product.  I have a Sanyo TV that my husband and I bought 16 years ago and it works perfectly.  The 2 RCA products went out with less than 6 years of service.  Now I have to decide whether to purchase new TVs or have a repairman to come out and repair them.  The parts for these TV start at $100 and rise.  I am so disappointed in RCA and wanted to share my feelings with anyone who would listen.
