NERD ALERT!

So my mom has gotten me into Couponing...at first I thought it was pretty lame, and after the first experience I thought I would never do it again! Now that I've done it for a few weeks I am getting the hang of it and it has taken over my life...it's actually pretty fun!

My mom and I go to Walgreen's every Monday morning at 8. That way I can do my couponing with the least amount of people in the store. This last Monday we stopped by Staples then Smith's to get great deals! This is what I bought...

  • 1 - All Laundry Detergent
  • 4 - Edge Shaving Creams
  • 4 - Boxes of Cheerios
  • 4 - Nivea Body Wash
  • 4 - Old Spice Body Wash
  • 2 - Gillette Body Wash
  • 6 - Miracle Whip
  • 6 - Fuze Drinks
  • 2 - Reams of Staples Paper
  • 1 - Soy Milk
  • 2 - Kraft BBQ Sauce
  • 1 - Smart Balance Butter
  • 7 - Crest Toothpaste
  • 2 - Energizer Batteries (4 pk)
  • 1 - Duracell Batteries (10 pk)
  • 1 - Reach Dental Floss
  • 1 - Ghiradelli Chocolate Bar
  • 6 - Peanut M&M
  • 1 - Wii Remote Candy Holder
  • 1 - Dinosaur Toothbrush Holder
  • 1 - Reynold's Tin Foil (75 sq ft)

So I got $233.55 worth of product, Spent $75.19, Saved $158.36 with a total of 68% savings! That's not even the best that I've done. I have put them all on a spreadsheet and for the month have saved 74% :) Now I finally have stuff to put in storage! Now if only I had a storage room haha

APX Backend Party

Nitro Circus came and performed at the APX Backend Party!
My camera couldn't get any good pictures when it got dark (I still don't know how to use it) so I only got a couple of pictures.
This was the track they were building all week. They put it up in the parking lot in front of the APX Building in Provo.

Travis Pastrona and the other guys in the crew all skydived in. It was cool cuz they jumped out of the plane and came shooting straight down and then ejected their shutes and came landing in the track. Travis actually ran into a dirt jump. haha

Beau was holding Jeter (Craig and Julie Andersen's) when they came landing in and he was so cute just staring up at the sky. He thought it was way cool!

Travis Pastrona and the Jazz Bear


APX Corporate...Travis did a jump over them.




This was also our FIRST YEAR ANNIVERSARY! Wahoo! What a torrific year Beau and I had...well maybe you should ask Beau if he thinks different haha But after the party we went and stayed at Hines Mason, a bed and breakfast in downtown Provo. We had alot of fun and would recommend staying there!
