AEPA / COUPONS

Ok, Sorry for the delay, but it has been extremly busy around the Johnson/Eilertsen households... and unfortunately you will not get all of the updates unti tomorrow when I have a little more time.

The biggest news for now is that I survived my AEPA exam. I was at Gilbert High School last Saturday from 8:00 until 5:00 with about an hour break for lunch, but the rest of the time I was testing testing testing. I was fairly nervous about it just because I did not know what to expect, but once I got in there and started the test, it pretty much covered the basics for both the professional field knowledge portion and the mathematics portion. I will be surprised if I did not pass both of them, but you never know. We will find out the results in a month and I will let you all know how it went.

So I just started the coupon shopping this past week (since I actually have time now) and I found that Walgreens had a lot of coupons that were for the same product as the coupons in the mail, so I doubled up the coupons, made my list and went shopping tonight. There is both good news and bad news to this story...

Bad news: I spent $100.
Good News: It wasn't mine (it was my mom-in-law's).
Good News: I saved her $82.

So I am totally excited about coupons now... I know that not every shopping trip will save me this much, but it was exciting nonetheless.

Oh Speaking of Coupons, I got an email from Walgreens and they have 10 cent 4x6 prints, so if any of you have been needing to print off all those digital photos, the promo code is FUN but it is for 50 prints or more (only 5 bucks) and I think you have to order them online. You better order them quick though because the promotion ends on 7/19.


Eventually I will get around to sorting through my pictures from my trip to forest lakes and my family reunion and maybe eventually I will post some of them on here so you can all see them.
