Hi everyone! Sorry I am a week late with my money saving tips, but I must insist on getting holiday time off.
First off, I have a money saving tip for my dad. Keep mom out of stores and off the internet until Halloween is over so she will stop buying crap Halloween stuff. These are her latest find-marble ghosts that she says were a bargain at $9.99 for the set.
For all you craft lovers, I have a wonderful freebie for you. The blog, Organized 31 had a link to a free online workshop that goes for 4 days and includes 36 workshops on knitting. crocheting, quilting, jewelry making, card making and even using procreate coloring pages and more. To sign up or learn more, click here.
We are joining Comedy Plus’ Happy Tuesday Blog Hop.
 
			













Hi Penny, interesting tips! Lol I do actually like those ghosts your Mom bought. XO
Thank you. 🙂 XO
That is a good idea for your Dad, but how will he keep track and stuff, maybe take her out till after Halloween, LOL! (and leave your garden?? not likely…)
Those ghosts are cute…but…(9.99 is $$ that could buy kitty things…just saying!)
I checked out that site, but I won’t be able to join as I am very busy those days…not with work, but I have all kinds of things lined up for that week, including going to my sister, boarding out the dogs, mowing the lawn, appointments and so on…and it seems if you want to only do a few classes or see them later, then you have to upgrade…which of course in not free…sigh…
Thanks for the tip though!
Thank you. 🙂 Sorry the tip won’t work with your schedule. XO
Your mama really is a go-getter. Great idea the craft session, so creative. Merci, Rosie for all the good hints. Those ghosts would make nice earrings…if you had three ears.
Thank you. 🙂 The ghosts are made of marble and pretty big to put a coffee cup on- Earrings would rip off your ears. XO
Penny, there’s no doubt you deserved a bit of a vacation. This way we stay in suspense until you come back. I kind of think the ghost are cute even if you don’t. And freebies, I’ll have to look into that one. Have a good rest.
Yes, good to leave them wanting more. XO
Penny, let mom have fun, since Halloween is her favorite time of the year. Those ghosts are too cute, and I agree, you need a vacation. Maybe you can bribe Rosie to fill in while you take a break.
Mom thanks you and so do I. 🙂 XO
Oooh, those are some very cute ghosties! 👻
Thank you. 🙂
Penny, of course you need Holiday time off! And by golly you found something I will go to this afternoon and I thank you. That Organized 31.
Thank you. 🙂 XO
The Lady got rid of a lot of her Halloween stuff. She donated it to the local animal shelter for their annual garage sale.
Good thing my mom doesn’t live near you or she would have bought it all. 🙂
Those little ghosts are adorable!
Thank you. 🙂
Charlee: “Good advice, Penny! Our Dada says he could tell Halloween was coming when he stopped by Smart & Final and saw they had the giant bags of candy on sale already. He did not come home with any yet. YET.”
A bit too early for the candy. 🙂
Penny ~ fun tips for ‘Mom’ ~ someone used to say to me when I talked about sales ~ Think how much you would have saved if you stayed home .) ~ hugs,

Thank you. 🙂 XO
It was easier to purchase when I was at the office; I had my stuff delivered to me there, then I could bring them home in my work backpack…The Hubby wasn’t aware.
Now, the packages show up on the porch, and he sees all.
*sigh*
Darn!
Great advice, only I need to keep my daughter from buying more holiday “stuff”. 🙂
Good luck. 🙂
Always fun money savings every Tuesday. It’s so important to save on things we love.
Thank you for joining the Happy Tuesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Happy Tuesday. Scritches to all the kitties and a big hug to mom. ♥
Thank you. 🙂 XO

Good to see you Penny. I like the ghosts, they’re cute.
Thank you. 🙂 XO
Staying out of stores and refusing to allow online shopping is the best way to save money. It’s also not easy to do, especially when you need to buy food.
Good point about the food. 🙂
MOL Halloween and Christmas decor are my weakness too!
Glad I am not the only one. 🙂 XO
