Day of Fishing and Bargains

First of all, Lance took the boys fishing at False River today. They had a good time. Apparantly, Lance's bamboo pole was the secret weapon of the day. Lance caught two fish right off the bat, so Logan wanted to try his luck with the pole so he switched with Lance. Within a few minutes, Logan caught a catfish. Not to be outdone, Nick took the pole and told Lance to touch it and do his magic. It wasn't too long after that that Nick caught a Brim (I guess that's how you spell it). Here are a few pics:

They left at around 6:30 a.m. Nick looks thrilled, huh?

Nick and Logan are ready to catch some fishies!

This is Logan's fish. Instead of Logan being in the picture with the fish he caught, he decided to take the picture himself.

Here is Nick with his fish. Notice neither boy will actually hold the fish himself. lol

Now for a little update on the coupon campaign: Well, I'm just starting so don't judge. I used 4 coupons this week and I used 2 of them on an item at Dollar General that is on sale for the week. So, here is how it went down: I had a coupon for $1.00 off Suave hairspray (which I happen to use anyway) if you buy 2. They were $1.97 each so I bought 2 and saved $1.00. Next, I had a coupon for some Cajun Seasoning Mix to save $1.00 if you buy 2. Those were $1.16 each so basically I got one for $.16. Now, here's where it gets good. I had 2 coupons to save $1.00 off Tide laundry detergent. I noticed that Dollar General had Tide on sale this week for $5.00. While at Walmart I checked to see how much it was there (which is where I usually buy it) and it was $6.97. So, I went to Dollar General, got each bottle for $5.00 and then used my $1.00 off coupon for each one. So, basically, I saved $3.00 per bottle of Tide by stopping by Dollar General on my way home and using my coupons. Pretty good for a beginner. Hey, baby steps!
