a recession....

okay, right
so i think people sometimes fail to realize that times are hard nowadays.
like for real?
i aint going nowhere i don't have to
did you know that gas is 4 dollars and 12 cents...
that's like 3 meals... at taco bell
milk is $3.89
the dollar menu cost $1.19
hmm.... that's odd...
since when does a dollar =$1. 19
i don't even understand...
for serious
this is getting out of control...
and you just can't "hair-flip" away
bills, and eating sometimes...

but yes....
this is why God created my mother
the pinch-a-penny queen
Check this out
We go to CVS this weekend and buy all this stuff
4 things of ALL laundry detergent
4 packages of Soilel razors
5 things of Colgate
1 thing of Shick Razors for my pops
4 pints of ice cream
Some mini Snickers
and other stuff I cant think of...

Total starts $78. and some change
SO, she pulls out the coupons
So its like "beep minus $3.00
beep minus $4.00
beep minus $1.00
and it continues....
then the total goes down to 40-something dollars

THEN... she pulls out the Gift Cards...
How does she get these gift cards??? Lemme tell you. Every time she goes to the pharmacy to get a new prescription filled, she gets a gift card. OR if it isn't a new prescription, she threatens to do it somewhere else, and the offer her another gift card to stay.
So the story continues...
"BEEP minus $25.00"
BEEP minus another $25.00

Total: $0.00
Balance Remaining on Gift Card: $5.35"

Thus!
At NO point in time did she pull out Money, at all... whatsoever...
that's is how you work the system

Now I stole a bunch of coupons from her this weekend
and will surely be using them every time I go to the store.

Anywho,
back to the point of this blog...
RECESSIONS are TYPE-WHACK!!!!
Go Obama...
