Apr. 15, 2008 - Tightwad Tuesday! -- Name Brand Sodas On Sale
I have this sneaking suspicion that most of the people participating in CanadaGirl's Tightwad Tuesday do not purchase soda. Sorry Girls! However, this is too good a deal not to mention. I did this same deal last year; and stocked up on enough sodas to last all summer -- my son and I take sodas to the pool every day so that we aren't tempted to use that machine. My girls prefer water! Here's the deal. Target is running a special, 5 twelve packs of Pepsi products for $15. That by itself is not that great of deal! However, at checkout you will get a $5 gift card. Taking the gift card back in, you will get your next 5 twelve packs for $10, and another $5 gift card! You can do this as many times as you like; and whenever you choose to stop; you will still have one $5 gift card left! So, you are getting 5 Twelve packs for $10! In several years of coupon shopping, this is the lowest price I have ever seen in my area. It usually only happens around Memorial Day, Labor Day, and Thanksgiving. So, I try to stock up on those holidays enough to make it to the next big sale!
The bottom line is; We try not to insist on parent-led learning or gravitate toward child-led learning. We try instead to focus on God-led learning and ask for His input and perspective on every aspect of our home school. That way, when others fuss about what Dan and I are doing and make me second guess our decisions -- I can go back to our decision process and find God's fingerprints, reminding me that this is His way.
