Planning ahead

I participate in both the Huggies and Pampers reward system. In case you are not familiar, basically every pack of diapers and wipes come with a code, you enter the code into their reward system, let your points accumulate, then you redeem the prize of your choice.

I redeemed my first prize from Huggies, which was a coupon for a free pack of swimmers diapers. Maybe it is strange that I used my reward points to get more diapers, but the way I look at it is, that is an expense that I was gonna have to pay out of pocket and now I don't have too!

Today I received my coupon in the mail and did a little happy dance. Then I went to snatch up my free pack of swimmers diapers. How awesome is that?Brian scored us a good find a few weeks back. I asked him if he ever saw a cheap swimming pool to let me know. He found this one at Kroger for $5.00 (originally priced at $54.00). No, it is nothing fancy, but she loves just crawling in and out of it for now and will suit us just fine as a swimming pool for next summer.
When the swim suites went on sale at the end of the summer I bought one for around $8.00 at Carters. I think that is a decent deal on a swimsuit?
Well, now we are all ready to play in the backyard next summer:)
