Default Re: Food for $1

So thats why my local store just started the 10 for 10 thing. It works!

I know I struggle with the 'stuff' thing with my mother, she wants to get stuff for my kids and I want her to spend time with them, or at the least not buy stuff for me to declutter! I think while I love the smiles of cool treat time, I hate the balancing of the checkbook at the end.

And while it is harder to remember for some reason, I LOVE the giggles of a tickle fest, or the satisfied, 'I figured this out' of a kid just learning something, or the smile of a kid on the way to a free entertainment, or the new satisfied look of 'I can use my money to go to The discovery place' (a science center). I don't know why it is harder to remember, after all to my pregnant self carrying the ice cream is harder than tickling! but it is.
