I somehow lost the zeal of blogging. Hence, the no posts. I mean how much can you hear about what was the latest thrifting thing I found. Or Samar had another bad outbreak(he ate rice) or that I am still not working out. In other words, things are what they were over the past 2 months.The [...]

Here I am! Monday MoneySavers

I didnt hit any of the estates/garage sales happening this week. Sometimes one needs a break I did go to the thrift store after dropping Avasha off at a scrapbooking party on Sunday. Instead of heading home, I hung around and hit 3 different thrift stores. I spent $7.99. I have been good. I resist the [...]

I saw this sexy bar cart at my fav thrift store. I fondled it,left it there and came back home. The next morning, I went back and bought it. I thought I would list on craigslists and see whether she sells, If she does, then good! And if she doesnt, then even better(I do have someone [...]
