So many of the artists that we love are getting on in age and I'm afraid they will stop touring before we can see them. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Being frugal 99% of the time is what allows us to make those occasional splurges like a dinner out. I generally budget $25 a month for eating out, but this month, I went over that because I went out for a couple of meals since it was my birthday. It all evens out in the end, I think.<br /><br />Hope you have another lovely week ahead. A happy Thanksgiving to you and your family, Debbie.

I...Giant tater! It could feed a whole family. <br /><br />I'm glad you enjoyed the concert and hotel getaway. <br />My state has so many casinos and they often host concerts. About a year ago, we saw Don Williams at a casino, The theater part was small, maybe 1000 seats and we really liked that. But all the smoke from the gamblers before we got into the theater was awful. Don Williams is old and in bad health but his concert was so good. <br />I've been working on Swagbucks and seem to get 1 -2 surveys most everyday.

I have 30 pounds in the freezer. I got it on sale for 1.99 ea. which is a great price around here. My husband was wondering why I had so much. It freezes well and we will go through it with normal use and baking! A new Food Maxx store opened this week here and we have been getting Freebies of Rotisserie chicken, potatoes, a case of water, OJ, eggs and Bacon Plus 10.00 off 50.00, a free reusable grocery bag and a turkey for .19 cents a pound. Oh yeah, my son and I stood outside to be one of the first 200 for the grand opening and each received a bag of groceries valued at 25.00. All in all a great week for free food.<br />Take care.Crystal Hankeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17914175004653234554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2283658887503348180.post-6408238930163142362016-11-19T05:50:12.096-08:002016-11-19T05:50:12.096-08:00Eating out can be a big leak for us also.
