Free shopping

Shopping is always fun especially when it's free.

You see 5 weeks ago I won (once again) on my friends Betsy at the Movies radio show. Every Friday morning on KWOS AM Radio she reviews a movie. They then have a trivia question and have a give away. (The answer is always B)

I won a car wash valued at $18.00, 2 movie tickets, and a $25.00 MasterCard gift card courtesy of Central Bank.

The car wash is long gone, dirty again.

But today I spent the $25.00, well most of it.



I first bought a new pillow for me. A $20 pillow on sale for $8.99, with the gift card it was free!
I had a free $10.00 coupon at Penney's. I found this $34.00 blouse on sale for $16.00, take off the $10 coupon made it $6.99, use the MasterCard gift card again. FREE
And I still have about $7.00 left. Maybe I will use it for a cheap car wash. No wait maybe I will try again Friday to win. It's been a month, I can try again.
Hello Betsy??? Pick caller #me!!

That's the problem with car washes, they just don't last long enough!

Love the blouse!

I can see you in that top! What a great deal! Love free shopping.
Thought I was behind you in the drive thru at Arby's today (friday), but I don't think it was you. Got excited for a minute.

I've always been envious of people who win the radio call in's. So that is you! Sweet dreams on that FREE pillow.

I just looked at your earlier post and am just amazed at the devastation the flood waters has caused in Nashville. It is a raw reminder to never underestimate the power of mother nature.

I think you're on a lucky roll. Better keep shopping with that 7 bucks.
