    We were given a gift certificate to Bed Bath & Beyond for Christmas and I ran out and got 2 sets of these... THEY ARE AWESOME! I too had put off getting them for so long because they are costly. I am so happy to have them!

    Quote: I don't think you understood...this is NOVEMBER and I haven't bought detergent since MARCH. $40 for a case is high yes, but I am talking like 5 cases in total. I said I still have a case left. I will be making my own detergent when I am through with this, when I bought this though I...

    Quote: I buy very very few brand names, so I skip out of coupons as well. Where they do seem to be useful for us are for services.

    Quote: I don't think anyone needs to tell you...I think you know. (I think deep down we always know). And what every relationship needs to be successful is a sense that you are a team, that you are working together. It sounds like you are currently in the stage of empowering yourself and...

    Quote: I was intimidated at first too! I think it's because I did not grow up watching anyone do it? I started with water bath canning and then quickly started pressure canning when I got my pressure canner for our wedding. When you can afford to get a pressure canner DO IT! It is just as easy...
