CHEAP COSMETICS!!!
October 8, 2008 on 1:03 pm | STEALS AND DEALS | No CommentsMy friend told me that the cosmetics line ELF is now going to be in Norstroms so they are changing their packaging and clearing out all their old stuff. I haven’t used their stuff a ton but I think it’s supposed to be pretty good stuff. So, if you go to their website http://www.eyeslipsface.com most of their stuff is only a DOLLAR! She also told me that if you put in the coupon code CAROLINA that it will take 1/2 off you bill for orders up to $15. I havent checked out yet so I havent verified the coupon code but I did look at their site and most products are only a dollar (sets of three end up being like $3, sets of 5, $5 etc. but single items really are only a dollar)

Babysitting Swap. If interested contact Erin
October 1, 2008 on 9:32 am | Uncategorized | No Comments| Hi everyone! Last year a few of us took part in a babysitting swap where we could drop off our kids at someone’ house and a few moms would stay and help babysit the kids while you had time to run errands and do whatever you can never get done with your kids around. I would like to do that again and this time of year always works out well because people want to start shopping for holidays and such. How it worked was we took the list of those interested and rotated who would host and help babysit all the kids. It was from around 9 -11:30sih. Soemone would bring a snacks for the kids as well. So I would like to know who would be interested in taking part in this?
Based on the numbers, we may try to arrange a group of people who live on the West side of town and the East, so when you respond, please also let me know what main streets you are next to. Thanks Erin |
