Opps!!! I answered your question on my profile page, but I guess I should have done it on yours? I dunno, I'm a bit of a ditz for these things.
Its not an item or a CI or EI. I actually don't know....
ACK! I changed my ears to normal... and now the color changed!

So how are you?

;_; I had planned on coming and chatting last night. But I wound up going to sleep.

That's alright Liz. How are you?

brb going to get nommage

Hello Kirin and Liztress!
I'm good. Still suck but getting better. I'm watching Extreme Couponing... damn those people save. Gets me jealous.
Who is nommage?

I'm doing good.

Nommage is food. I think. o.o; And I watched that show once! I wish I could do like they do.

Nommage is food. Yeah but the amount those people buy is ridiculous.

My mom could have been on there. Except she didn't clip coupons. xD

It's a good idea if you have a large family. I saw a woman with seven kids, which means she NEEDS to coupon. But a three people household? Couponing is good..... but it should not take over your house.
A basement for food? Whatever, go ahead. Sounds like fun. When you start filling under the bed, in the showers, etc. That's too much.
Your mom saves without coupons? lIke clearance and things like that?

Yeah and I know Ellen had a lady on once who bought large quantities and donated what she didn't need to food banks.

I agree. Once it takes over the house, it becomes hoarding.
She did. *nods* She would buy things on sale and marked down. And go to outlet stores for some clothes/food and such.

that's cool

Yeah, one of the guys on the show donated a whole bunch of care packages to Soldiers.
That's what I say. But it would be nice to learn. Imagine, you could actually buy clothing without worrying about groceries!
My mom loves Outlet stores. I like them sometimes... but the clothing can be ripped up or thing like that in Outlets. I actually like going to thrift stores instead.

I think it's awesome when people do that and help others out.
Yeah, you do have to watch out for rips. I loved going to the Goodwill with her. And then my boyfriend's mom. They usually have some nice things.

You have to make sure to go to Goodwill and Savers that are in richer neighborhoods. Since all the items are donated by the community, the richer the community the better the items.
Here in Phoenix they have a really cool, small thrift chain called "My Sister's Closet" and its all designer clothing. Its more expensive than Savers or Goodwill obviously, but its really rock bottom prices on things that would cost you an week's paycheck. I don't go there often, but last time I got Four brand skirts for $40.

Nice. And you're right. Thrift stores' wares rely on what the community brings to them. I think we have a store similar to that one. It's called Plato's Closet. Never been there but I have heard good things about the prices and selections.

Like I said, I don't go there often. I'm on the poor, middle-class side so I don't often go clothing shopping. But it's nice to know you can go somewhere to get good stuff at low prices.
Hmm... I'm thinking this 'closet' business is taking over designer thrift shops.

Middle-class here as well. Not sure if we're poor or not. I just settle for having the basics and some extras in life. xD Majority of my clothes have been given to me by family and church members.
Possible. Not that I'd complain.

Ugh, here I am putting off making dinner... Brb.

De Ja Vu! I just got three new party dresses yesterday from a church member as well! They are barely used and really pretty so I'm good for at least three parties!
Go make dinner! I just ate pizza.

Sorry got distracted, how are you all? I am so tired.

----------

and now my thread is dead

It's not! I was just distracted as well. My doggies and their need to get up on the couch...
So, what did you have for dinner?

Went out for Chinese.

OHHH!!! I haven't had Chinese in ages. My favorite entree is the long beans. I just can't get enough of them. I wish they had a recipe I could snatch and learn.
Did you go to a restaurant or buffet?
