Sunday Shout Outs


(picture credit)
Trent over at the simple dollar wrote THIS POST about returning to his parents' frugal roots.
It made me think of my parents and nana and what they've all taught me about money over the years.
So this is a public shout out to my parents and my nana to thank them for all they have taught me through speech and by example. THANK YOU!
I am a smart, frugal, deal-seeking, coupon shopper today because of you :)

Funny for Females

Saw this in passing on a blog:
I hope I don’t embarrass anyone too badly, but this is too good not to share: When one of my friends yelled to her husband to grab a Kotex, he yelled back, “Are those the pillows or the torpedoes?”


I thought this was hilarious! Made me think of THESE beauties that I came across the other day.






Here are some other hilarious uses for 'pillows' and 'torpedoes'.
