Fall Wreath

I made this wreath for this past fall.
The base I bought on Facebook Market place
3 for 5.00. $1.66 each
The decorations on the wreath I had already.
And pine cones I found.
So I took apart old decor to make something new

Cakes

Cakes
Easy to make either from box or homemade.
Easy homemade frosting.
I make them when visiting friends, birthdays or just because.
I am not great at decorating, but hey, it's cake and it tastes good.
Plus, I freeze leftovers and have cake as a surprise treat or dessert.
I buy cake mix when on sale for .99 (most time I have coupon so I get them for free or .50)
I make frosting from confectionery sugar, butter, milk and vanilla.

Store cards

Store cards...
A hassle?  Maybe
But they do pay off.
I get online coupons, plus the store's sale prices.
Then I used regular coupons as well.
The products shown cost me 19.xx out of pocket.
LESS Than A Twenty Dollar bill.
Waffles for .80 cents a box, I can't make them that cheap.
Kraft Mac and Cheese, a good staple to have a round. Stock up when on sale.
Campbell's Soup, another staple especially for cooler weather.
You can't see, but there are 3 packs of toilet paper...

Dollar store

A while back I needed black barrettes.
The dollar store had off brand black ones, really flimsy.
And they had brand name silver ones.
I bought the brand name.  I had spray paint at home.
Now I have brand name black barrettes, just what I needed.
