This weekend is memorial day weekend. Its suppose to be pretty and clear here in Asheville NC. Temperatures will be in the mid 70s on Saturday. Today, the weather is clear too. Its suppose to be in the mid-70s by this afternoon. Its chilly right now,  I had to wear a light jacket to walk my granddaughter to the school bus stop this morning. The weatherman says there is a chance of showers tomorrow.

I never buy small trash bags for the bathroom, bedroom or elsewhere. Instead, I use the plastic bags from the grocery store. In the bathroom, I use the plastic wrap that encases the toilet paper. To clarify, I buy the large economical pack of toilet paper. When I open the pack, I carefully cut the top open so when its through I can use it as a small trash bag to line my bathroom trash can. You can do this with paper towels too or any item you buy that is encased in plastic. Its a small savings, but its a savings. I also reuse bread bags. You can use the bread bag as a short term freezer bag, a lunch bag, a sandwich bag, a storage bag etc. Just be sure to empty out the crumbs before you use it. You can also use a clean empty butter container, coolwhip container etc for food storage  or taking leftovers for lunch to work. Be resourceful. Think about what you can use the item for before you throw something away.

I just came back from Harris Teeter grocery store in Asheville NC. I checked the sales before I went. Anyway, today is May 15th so you wont get the sales wrong for the week. The london broil roast and cube steak is buy one get one free. The cube steak is so tender you can cut it with a fork. This is a good deal. I had already stocked up from the last sale so I did not buy this week. Although I was tempted. I had to keep saying to myself its not a deal if you don’t need it.
