Blog: Little drops of rain

I believe the ocean is just a bit collection of little drops of rain. Thrift is a collection of little things that you do. The result is a usable amount of cash that you can put toward your needs or wants. It's all a game, and I want to play it well.

Canning season again
Friday, August 31, 2007

It is truly canning season. In the past three weeks, I have put up 16 quarts of green beans, 25 pints of sweet pickle sticks, 5 pints of dill relish, 6 pints of dill pickles (whole), and 10 pints of sweet zucchini relish. I need to take the dill out of our dryer tonight, and put in slices of pears. It seems to be stocking up time. I got a three week supply of seafood (shrimp and fish fillets) along with some ice cream, vanilla yogurt and cheese at the grocery store, and five big boxes of tissues. I also "bought" two packets of cat food and a year's supply of Post-It's for free. It all cost $37.00. I still have $13.00 left for the two week period, and am thinking of going back to Rite Aid. They have Scott t.p. on sale at half price, plus they gave me a $5/$25 purchase, and I have $5 in Scott coupons. Since this would normally cost almost $50.00, it is quite a savings.
