which I think is pretty good. I got everything for Thanksgiving dinner and stuff for dinner and lunches since my sister and her family will be here from Wednesday-Saturday.

I saved $43.73 using my Bonus card and $11.70 using coupons and bottle returns. I got a 16lb turkey for $8. I stuck to my list and wasn't swayed by any extras. I did however splurge on a crab stuffed portabello mushroom for dinner-yum-o!

I want to make some cookies before everyone gets here. I still have to clean the bathroom and finish the laundry and then I will be in good shape.

I get paid on Wednesday this week because of the holiday. I am excited to see how much I have for Black Friday. I looked at some of the ads today and made a list of things I need to get at Walmart. My sister and I usually hit Target but I think Walmart is having better deals. We'll probablt also go to Kohls and possibly Toys R Us.

Well, I better get to work if I want to get everything done. It's not going to happen by itself-unfortunately!
