Hi Kirk,

I must admit, I shop almost everything.

It drives my wife nuts. If she buys something I always ask what it costs. Her frequent reply is - I don't know, I wanted it and I bought it.

I'm lucky enough to be able to buy more than we need. If something is on sale we double up or triple up.

In Wisconsin we shop at Festival. They have boomerang sales - so good you should stock up and not have to COME BACK. <smile> Every week they have a sale on beef, chicken, fish, and pork - So we stock up our freezer and save all month long.

That's what got me through tough times and to be honest, I don't give it up. It's part of being smart or perhaps frugal is the better word. My conservative banker Dad drilled it into me I guess.

I don't find pleasure in overspending and I love a sale and a bargain.

I pass on paying regular price if not necessary. When Menards has 11% off, I go buy up what I passed on.

I will pay an extra cent buying a stock I like - heck everybody has a weakness <Smile>

But you are correct, Now I go in and get what I need and get the heck out.

I went to facebook and didn't see charts??

P.S. got a letter from Geico - they are giving all customers a 15% discount on renewal policies.

Bob
