Christmas Cards

I've been thinking I am a slacker.
I know I am often a slacker...
This year I am feeling guilty about not doing Christmas Cards.
I had big plans....
But could never get all my family together for a picture.
So...
What do you think about New Year's cards?
I had a cousin do this once.
I liked it.

Is it totally lame to send a Happy New Year Card instead?
Still with the newsy letter and picture?
As it happens because it's the holidays
my whole family is present and accounted for
So pictures are finally an option.

I'm doing it.
If you don't like it.
They all end up in the same place after they're read anyway, right?

Double Up

This is my loot from the Smiths coupon savings.
Every coupon used valued at $1.00.
Price at Register before coupons $216.67
Spent $110.12
Saved $106.55
I will be the first to admit that this whole coupon thing
would work better for me if I was diligent.
However, the two times Smiths does this a year
have paid above and beyond for my Newspaper.
Plus....
I love watching the money go off.
I love even more getting stuff for free. :)
