Money saving Debate

I love saving money, I'm not the first person to admit this, nor will it be the last time I say it. My dearest husband isnt as cheap as I am when it comes to things, BUT crafting....He's CHEAP. Joann's had a sale this weekend. All red tag fabric was 50% off the already half off price, most thread was 50% off, and ALL McCalls patterns were .99! Now that's a deal right??? We raced over there, I grabbed 3 patterns, to which he lectured me "Are you going to use these?" "Maybe not? But they're .99, and normally all McCalls patterns are $9.99, so REALLY it's saving money, who cares??? Well, then the girls and I wandered over to the clearanced fabric, the Diva picked out three fabrics she liked, already had plans for what I would make her, and announced it VERY loudly, a few customers thought this was adorable, me? I knew it was her just being demanding and gave her a major eye roll. There was a 25min wait for the cutting table! Obvious sign of a Joann's sale! ha ha. So once I had my pieces cut, priced and was ready I found Mr Cheapskate hovering the patterns with 5 MORE in his hand. WHAT!!!! Anyway, We saved a lot this weekend which makes me very happy. But Mr T argues, that we didnt "need" to even spend the money we had, we shouldn't shop just because there is a sale and should save save save.. Sure, that's great advice, but not for me. Not when you see the savings from my receipt!

The great Christmas Sale

So this little add showed up in the news paper Sunday. We don't even get a paper but it was on our porch SOOO it must have been meant to be right?
