Add It Up...Priceless

I never took time to post about our bargain trip to the beach two weeks ago. We are trying to be as frugal as possible, since I am just now paying off my start up expenses for my new business. The goal now is to take any and all profit from Premier sales and pay off our vehicle. For Christmas, I want to hold the title in my hand. I've already started explaining to the boys that it may be a light Christmas. After all, what do they even NEED???

Gas to and from the beach: $90
Two meals at Arby's with free roastburger coupons: $20
Trip to Chuck E Cheese for boys and little L/100 tokens with coupon:$12.50
Two trips to two different children's museums: FREE
$50 Dinner at Olive Garden: FREE (Discover award)
$50 Shopping Spree at Children's Place Outlet: FREE (Discover award)
Accommodations at Bellstewart B and B: FREE (Thanks!)
Making memories with my guys without breaking the bank: PRICELESS

Plus, B sent me home with a cooler full of groceries! Over 12 pounds of boneless/skinless chicken breast and other assorted goodies. I think we MADE money on our trip! (My show for B also covered some of our gas and she ended up with $150 in FREE jewelry! It was a win win situation!)
