I had a few of you ask where my photos where from my thrifty deals, being that we had double coupons at Albertsons this week. Well I hate to break it to you, but the only thing I got was 6 packs of Tortillas for .4 cents each. I had some dental work done last week and I was doing just fine still Saturday, when out of the blue it felt like my jaw was on FIRE. I have never had a toothache like that before, it was and still is awful. I am now on antibiotics and pain pills. I hope they work and I will feel better soon.
BUT this brings up a good point, Yes I was VERY disappointed to miss out on this weeks thrifty deals. Being that I could have gotten many things free. I have to admit when I miss out on a great deal I somehow feel like I have failed, or disappointed my family or my readers, for not being “the best coupon momma on earth”. But what my family really wants is just Momma….who cares if I miss a deal or two. I get emails all the time asking me how I do it all, be a mom, house keeper, deal finder, couponer, wife, and about 101 other things.
As much as I want a good deal, it is not the most important thing in my life. There is ALWAYS going to be another good deal, so if you miss out on one….it is OK. You can always try to catch the next sale, if you miss out on that one too ….who cares. If you try to catch every deal I post on my blog you will drive yourself crazy and before long hit total coupon burn out. Celebrate the deals you do get and do not worry about the ones you miss.
So I am sad to have missed out on the hot deals …but also realize couponing on Vicodine may not be the best idea either. But it may have been fun to watch A Thrifty Mom all wacked out on pain meds, with a heat pack duck taped to my jaw, (so I could use both hands to snag the good deals), blissfully pushing my shopping cart in a drunken zig-zag pattern up and down the isle at Albertsons….. maybe next time…lol!
