Rain rain...Where are you??

 
Right now Arizona is in the midst of what they call their "Monsoon Season." Sadly enough, I am getting more and more disappointed as the days go by. It was supposed to rain yesterday and the day before and the day before... well you get the point! I haven't felt a drop where I live, and I am sick of waiting! Weather.com says that Phoenix receives an average of .99 inches of rain in July; so far we have gotten a grand total of 0.04 inches. Can't there be more than a "slight chance of rain" in the forecast tomorrow? Rain rain...where are you?!

My Deal of the Day...AKA "DOD"

Well today I hit up the grocery store and took advantage of all the great deals that were at Fry's. Also, I got an even greater deal when I matched up the sale items with manufacturer coupons. Check out all the stuff I got for such a steal!


After all my hard work, I ended up getting these 50 items:

-3 Tombstone pizzas
-1 Forty-pack of Pizza Rolls
-10 Gatorades/Vitamin Water
-2 Easy Macs
-1 Four-pack set of DanActive
-2 bags of Sargento shredded cheese
-1 block of Sargento cheese
-2 cans of Spaghettio's
-2 boxes of Life cereal
-1 box of Toaster Strudels
-4 boxes of Rice-a-Roni
-1 carton of Florida's Natural orange juice
-2 packages of Dixie paper  plates
-2 jars of Kraft Mayo
-3 bags of Contessa skillet meals
-4 bottles of Wishbone salad dressing
-2 cartons of Breyers ice cream
-2 boxes of Quaker granola bars
-1 package of Energizer batteries
-1 bottle of Suave deodorant
-1 bottle of Softsoap
-1 bag of Tostito's chips
-1 box of Philadelphia creme cheese

And these 50 items only cost me $43.20 after taxes! Grocery shopping is always a little more fun when it is not so spendy!
