K-mart Super Doubles

So...KMart was supposed to be having super double event starting today. They were going to be doubling coupons up to $2 with a limit of 5 coupons per person per day and you needed a shop your way card. So I get my coupons together and find some things I think I can get good deals on and I head over. I had heard that some Kmarts were being weird about this and no one knew anything about it so I thought maybe I should ask first. Of course our ghetto Kmart had no clue except they were nice enough to call the manager and she told them that it was doubling up to $1. Oh well, I went ahead and looked around and found a few things. Here is what I ended up getting.



2 X 44ct Chinet paper plated-$3.29 I had 2 $1 off which doubled to $2
Final Price- 2.58 for 2
Right Guard mens Deodorant-$2.50 $1 off which doubled to $2
Final Price-0.50 cents.

In all I spent $3.63 not bad I guess but could have been better had the deal been working correctly. I would like to go back and see if it would double $2 coupons at the register but not sure if it's worth the hassle. Hope everyone had a great Easter weekend!!

Publix Deals



Today Justin and I went to publix and both scored some sweet deals. I got everything pictured for $8.17 and saved $27.07. It doesn't look like a lot but I think it was a pretty sweet deal considering one of the scrubbing bubbles cleaner was originally $7.99. Here is what I got.

2 Tropicana OJ 2/$5
BlG1 Free coupon=$2.50 for 2

Kraft Shredded Cheese 3/$5
$2/1 in store coupon located with the cheese
=$0.66 each

Babybell Cheese $2.49
$0.55 coupon located with the cheese.

and the best deal of the day

2 Scrubbing Bubbles power sprayer $7.99 each
2x$5/1http://www.rightathome.com/offers/2010-03-electron-bfpfe/?sid=coupon&cid=bfpfe201003electron&rid=&om_rid=ATSQtq&om_mid=_BLsev1B8GuDO8e&
2x$3/1 from the one stop one store booklet at Publix (I had to ask where they were because they were just randomly located on an isle, not sure where your publix will have them).
both were FREE after coupons.
I'm also going to get another one and submit the SC Johnson $5 Rebate for a $5 moneymaker!!

BTW I cleaned my shower today with the new cleaner and if you hold down the button it sounds like aliens or something. They come with batteries and have a continuous sprayer. Worked well for me to!

Please Don't Leave Mr. Weekend

Please don't Leave Mr. Weekend I have enjoyed you so. I am not ready for the weekend to end. I am not ready for the next week, but no matter if I'm ready or not its going to end really soon, really really soon to be exact and I must get ready to face tomorrow anyway. At least I only have one more week until Spring Break!! That means one week closer to seeing my family, one week closer to seeing Brittany, and one week closer to Panama City!
Oh yeah back to the weekend. I have had a great relaxing weekend. Friday night I cooked dinner for Justin and I. Pork Tenderloin, roasted red potatoes, and broccoli. After that we made peanut butter popcorn and watched Night at the Museum II and just chilled at the apt.

Justin and his old school but awesome pop corn popper

LOTS of popcorn!!



Peanut Butter Popcorn, Oh so yummy!!


Justin also made some regular popcorn with cheese flavor stuff on it!

My bowl vs. His bowl Hmmm....

Harley really wanted some popcorn to....he may or may not have had a few pieces ;)


Saturday I slept in way to long. I woke up at 5:30 and then fell back asleep till 11 A.M.! I never sleep that long. Justin called and said he was on his way over which was a surprise to me that he was even awake. It was cheat day for him so he wanted MILO's for lunch and I was starving so that was ok with me. So we went and got some lunch, it was a treat for us because we NEVER eat fast food. After that we went back to his condo and just chilled out some more. Later we went to target to pick up a few things and get Justin his beloved ICEE for his cheat day. I may or may not have had one to. Then it was back to my place to decide what was for dinner. Basically neither of us wanted to spend a lot of money or cook so we just opted for Hungry Howies, again another big cheat for the day. Basically we were just really lazy all weekend.
Now its time to study for a test I have this week and find some food cause I'm hungry!

A typical day for ME

Over at http://www.kellyskornerblog.com/ today's show us your life Friday is what is a typical day like for you.

My day starts around 7:30 and I wake up and get ready for my day. This usually includes shower, makeup, breakfast, and books ready class and sometimes even a little more cramming before a test or what not.
I try and leave my apartment around 8:30 on MWF and 9:00 on Tue/Thurs.
MWF I have class from 9-10 and then I go to the gym and work out (on those days I wait to shower after that) and then I have lunch. I go back to campus and have class from 1-2
After that it's usually time to study so it's either the library or computer lab.

T/Thurs I have class from 9:30-10:45 and 11:00 to 12:15. After that depending on how much homework or how many tests I have to study for I go to the gym and then home for lunch or just eat lunch on campus and to a computer lab to study.

If perhaps I do not have a lot of school work to do (which rarely never happens in Engineering school) I go run errands, get groceries or play on the computer.

I always get home at random times so I eat dinner out some and some at home.
I a try to be in bed around 11:30 and wake up and do it all over again.

My weekends vary as well sometimes I go home or home with my boyfriend or just stay here and relax. Sundays are church and catch up on school work get ready for the next week days.

So basically my life is boring because I am an Engineering student that studies all the time. I do occasionally get caught up enough to hang out with my friends or have a week night dinner with someone.

Super Savings at Walgreens!

I am getting good at this couponing thing. I got all this pictured at Walgreens for $22.26 minus the mellow mushroom cup and the napkin holder in the background. I got some of the items free or nearly free and got back $9 worth of Register rewards to use so I paid in 2 transactions. I know it doesn't look like a lot of stuff but its expensive stuff like medicine and Aveeno lotion and CHOCOLATE!! No I do not plan on eating all that chocolate and those jelly beans myself. I plan to share. At least I bought toothpaste so my teeth don't rot. My total for all this without coupons and RR should have been $55! I feel like I did ok for a semi beginner. I def plan to keep it up even if I do get weird looks in stores. College is NOT cheap people!! Hopefully I will get an update about me on here soon. Right now its off to study for a quiz tomo and this its the weekend!

Not ready

School is starting to get busy, I currently have 2 homework due in the next week. One Tues and one Friday, a quiz tomo or every Friday at that and possible quiz in another class next week. Oh well this is life as I know it for now I guess. It' s really starting to sink in that in a little over a year I will be a college graduate. I friend asked me the other night if I was going to take the FE exam in the fall and I was like " oh wow I haven't even thought of that". I was a little shocked that it is getting so close. It always seems so far away and now its creeping up really fast. I still have lots of time but it's scary to think that I do not have any kind of job lined up. Hopefully all that will fall into place as it gets here.
Tonight I have a review session to go to at 7:30. Justin and I are going to grab some dinner before hand and then after that it's study for the quiz that is tomorrow. Fridays are never exciting any more because I always have quizzes. After 10 it will be a good day.
It's kinda been a busy week, Tuesday I went to work out after class and when I was on my way home I felt something happening to my car. I realized that I needed to get my car off the road and when I went to turn left there was some traffic and I really thought it was about to go dead so I gunned it across the road IN FRONT OF A CAR!!! although flooring the gas pedal did NOTHING! and basically I coasted across the road IN FRONT OF THE CAR!! I managed to get off the road and pulled into someones side driveway. I was a wreck, I was freaking out and I called Justin crying. He came to get me and look at my car, I think it took him forever to get there. I called my dad and he said he would come down here but then he decided to send the tow truck wed to get it and my mom brought me the durango and she rode back in the tow truck. We think the fuel pump went out on it cause you could tell it wasn't getting enough gas.
It's only 13 days till my birthday!!

Random Facts about me

OK, so I really want to get this blog thing going but every time i get get re motivated it doesn't take me long to get unmotivated again. One of my best friends tagged me in this Random facts about me so I just can't let her down and I have to do it. Thanks B maybe this is the motivational kick I need. OK so i am supposed to state 7 random things about me, so here goes,

UNO: I have 2 different colored eyes. About 50% of people notice it right off and the other 50% do not but are all are utterly mesmerized when they do notice. BTW the right one is blue and the left one is green. Some days they look more alike and others not so much.

DOS: I have became an avid coupon clipper, I know that sounds weird cause I am only 'almost' 22 but it literally makes me giddy to save money. My goal is to get as good as the people from the blogs I read. It's actually amazing what they can do.

TRES: I really don't have that many true friends. I have lots of friends but only a few are TRUE friends. You know the kind that would drop everything to come rescue me if I was dying.

QUATRO: I ABSOLUTLEY LOVE to cook and would love to go to cullinary school, but Engineering school is consuming my time right now so maybe when that is done I can become a better chef. Baking is the best.

CINCO: I LOVE to travel although I never do. My goal is to make enough money to travel to anywhere I want. My parents don't like to travel as much as me so that makes me think I am not really their child.

SEIS: I love to read other people blogs. I probably know more about people I do not know than people I do.

SIETE: I can't wait till the day I can have my own family. I love my life right now and definitly don't want to wish it away but I love the thought of one day walking down the isle (that is if my dad actually gives me away) and then some day bringing home my first child (which better be a girl so I can buy everything frilly and pink and big bows). I don't want that to happen now but maybe in 5 years we will think about it.

Ok so there is my random facts. So now on to what is going on in the busy world of Kellie.

School started back this week. The first week is always fun cause it feels like you are actually going to class and accomplishing something but there is never anything due and you never feel behind or like you are failing yet. Although I have already had 2 quizzes. So I dread when things get tough but only 3 more semesters to go!!.....but then what??
I am trying to get back into my healthy eating. I rarely have sweets or soda. I try not to eat a lot of carbs and eat more meat. I love the gym but ts not fitting into my schedule very well this semester so p90x and a park down the road is helping a little. Wednesday me and Roomie took Harley to for a walk with us and he loved it. I'm sure he smelled and sprinkled every peice of grass, tree and trash can in the whole place.
Tonight BF and I are going to the gymnastics meet and maybe to dinner with some friends. Should be fun our gynamstics team is really good and they play Georgia.
Tomorrow there is a celebration for the National Championship at Bryant Denny, we are planning on going to that. I know its gonna be CRAZY around here and it will be like football season all over again, except this time we have already accomplished a National Champiosnhip. ROLL TIDE ROLL!!!!!!!
Monday is a holiday so NO CLASS!! YAY. BF is not excited about us being out for this Holiday and not Veterans Day which also happens to be his b'day. But Oh well I dont make the rules.
Speaking of Birthdays it is officially 19 days till I will be the big 22!! I feel as if I am getting old. I remember thinking when I was like 16 that people over 20 had it all together and they knew everything, boy was I wrong!!
Ok well I have class in 30 minutes and then its the weekend yay!!
