Can't believe you did that in 2 days! I bet your bodies are in shock from the cold. Isn't it grey and freezing in northern USA? Hope you have sunshine, but we do not again.<br /><br />Of course Viv remembered you! Sweet gramma...how could she forget?! :) <br /><br />I accidentally deleted your shamrock comment.

One store I go to has them in a cart and if you aren't looking for it, you could mistake it for a customer's cart. I, too, like to stock up on little gifts through out the year. It's nice for the money and also when you have a spur of the moment need and don't have to run out shopping for it.Betsy Brockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06807795605763246015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1357105223288312642.post-19170413727566588002013-03-02T09:49:22.261-05:002013-03-02T09:49:22.261-05:00Ahhh... one of my "pending projects"... ...Ahhh... one of my "pending projects"... reorganizing the pantry/laundry room.

I get exhausted reading about all you do each day. I sorta remember those types of days and hopefully they will come back some day. I too love to check the clearance shelves before I do any shopping. At my grocery store they put it in the alcove that leads to the bathroom. Usually I am in that area by myself checking all the shelves. Other shoppers just walk on by and usually give me a funny look. I think they are wondering what I am doing. But sometimes someone will come join me and we start talking about all the good deals we find there. I just love finding deals. Even when I shop online I go looking for their clearance section. A lot of places do not even have their clearance section easily marked and you really do have to make an effort to find it. One can sure save a lot of money shopping this way and I too do like Brian and shop all year round for the gift bags that I make at Christmas time. Without doing that they would be more like "Air bags".<br /><br />I really enjoyed this post.<br /><br />God bless.
