“The average millionaire can't tell you who got thrown off the island last night.”
"If broke people are making fun of your financial plan, you’re on track."

Tea Shirts

We are going to attend the Fort Myers Tax Day Tea Party on Wednesday, April 15th. We encourage everyone who loves their country to attend a Tea Party near you.
We had a pre-Party with our friends The Bests and made our "Tea Shirts" for the big event. Here is what we will be wearing:
The front of Scott's shirt

The back of Scott's shirt

Courtney's shirt

Kid's Shirts

Hiram colored this one himself!
Olivia's shirt
Proving two children are always better than one!

Bailey's shirt
Doesn't this just say it all?



He Has Risen!

I don't know where he comes up with these songs! They sure do make my day.

Diaper Deal!

It is finally back! The last time Walgreens ran this sale I only bought 900 diapers. Because I don't know when they will do this again I plan on buying about 5,000 this time. I figure that would be enough for a year's supply!
The Centsible Sawyer

Last night I went out for the first round.
Result: 1,362 diapers for $116.84
Translation: $0.08 per diaper
Comparison:
Pampers - $0.22 per diaper
Huggies - $0.19 per diaper
Luv's - $0.17 per diaper
Parent's Choice - $0.14 per diaper

Go to the pharmacy and ask for the tri-fold coupon booklet. It will look like this. One store had a similar tri-fold except it had no picture of the store on the front and no diaper coupon! If you don't find it at first, try a different store. And no you do not have to sign up for any programs to get this flyer.

This is what it looks like on the inside. There are lots of other good coupons but the one you want is...

... in the bottom right hand corner. Some things to know about this coupon: 1) yes, it says limit one, ignore that. 2) have the checker scan all of your diapers (I clean out the store and get about 12 packages at a time). 3) after diapers are scanned (@ 4.50 each) the coupon will be scanned taking off $2 for every package you have (ie. 12 packs x 4.50 = $54.00 - coupon $24.00, total = $30.00) 4) you get to keep your coupon! (this is not a manufacture coupon so you get it back to use again and again)

I hope this helps. Happy diaper buying!
