Updates, musings and rambles from the Burgher (good, bad and uglier)

So, I know long time no see AGAIN and so sorry to let you guys down. I have been EXTREMELY busy. With my son in school, work, trying to catch up on housework...those of you that follow me know that I have chronic pain so stress does make it much worse! etc etc.

Let's see hmmm, good. I went Goodwill hunting and scored Adidas memory foam slides for $6 never used. I also scored my sons winter shirts for next year, just need to catch up on pants. This is a good time of year to clearance shop and do goodwill..stores and people are trying to make space and clean out their closets, per-se. 

I,after almost six years, finally got full time at work. Good. Of course there is a catch with that..it's Wal-mart..haha. I had to open my availability which is 7am to 11 pm and boy did they take advantage of that. It's going to be really stressful and exhausting but the extra money will be worth it! 

Bad and good...my son had a really bad cold but he is better, but it seems my mom got it. My 92 year old grandpa has a severe flue and is not doing well. 

Anyway, enough for today. I do have some rambles in my head...which ones do you want? Saving money? Being giving? etc?

Also need to support my goodwill habit so here is a link to swagbucks, an extremely easy way to earn  gift cards or paypal money, if you are interested I can give you tips that are quick...I average about $5 a month on there. PLEASE USE MY LINK! God bless and have a great week!

Hello!

Hello! Just stopping by to say hello. I have been clipping coupons on putzing around the house today. I work 330-8 today and have tomorrow off. I hope. I am on the waiting list for jury duty, they didn't need me today but I have to call in every day for two weeks. My dad will have to take me its in down town Pittsburgh which is a night mare to drive through. Thing is I get paid to go...(by walmart then a bit by the court.) Wal mart actually wants you to do your civic duty so it doesn't even count against attendance!


Anyway, if I get to go when I am sched. to WORK then its nice...just not on my day off please!


Well enough rambling,
God Bless and have a great day!

Peeves,over spending people!

Ok so this is my rant and rave for the week lol! I work at Wal-Mart and see waste and overspending every day and everywhere! 
So, here we go! 


-people who weave in and out of traffic to a red light, where do you suppose you are going, wasting your gas, in such a hurry? YOU HAVE TO STOP.


-people who buy 4 plastic wrapped potatoes for 4 dollars. for GOODNESS SAKE please buy a 5 pound bag for 3.50, poke holes in it with a fork and stick in the microwave! even if you throw away the rest, it is still cheaper that way! 


-people who buy 40 bucks worth of bathroom stuff(makeup, shampoo etc) with out a single coupon on a lot of peoples orders I could easily save 10 bucks, this is before price matching. Take the 10 minutes to clip a few coupons,


-people who buy hangers, just ask the cashier for free ones, they aint matchy matchy but they work! 


-enough said: people who but frozen peanut butter sandwiches with the crust cut off for 75 cents per piece


-5 lunchables; I could buy you the meat, the crackers and the candy and drinks for less money and you would have lunch for the family on saturday! 


Ok, so this is a brief list and sorry if I offended any one, I am cheap and hate paying full price for anything! I love to shop, but like the burlington commercials, I got this this AND that for less than your one item! 


Ok, so what is your thoughts?
