File Cabinet Friday

Wednesday of this week, I was walking down the hallway and noticed something on the floor up ahead:

As I got closer, I realized that it was another wonderful art demonstration from our extremely talented kids!

I particularly LOVE his joyful expression...

...and the amazing detail of the pick in his afro.



Just another shining example of the future of America!  I wonder if behind the desks of great men, afro-men are drawn all over the floor....

I am a Smart One

So recently, my couponing class has finally started to pay off....BIG!  Check out the deal I got today....

Is that my freezer filled with Weight Watcher Smart Ones meals??  Why, yes it is....24 packages to be exact...that, thanks to the gals at truecouponing.com, cost me a whopping $9.23.  Did you hear me?  I paid .41 a piece for those puppies.  Can you buy lunch for .41??  I did today....for 24 days!  How, you may ask?  Well here's the breakdown:

1. Target had these on sale for $1.80 a piece.
2. Target also had a special, that if you bought 7 you would get a $5.00 gift card back.
3. Previously, I had signed up for Weight Watchers coupons from their website, and they sent me an email for $5.00 off when you bought 12.
4. Currently Target has a $5.00 off 10 posted on their website that you could print.

So, I printed 2 of the manufacturer coupons (from Weight Watchers), and 2 store coupons (from Target).  That equaled $20.00 off my purchase.  Bought 24 Weight Watcher meals for $1.80 each.  And, Target PAID ME 3 gift cards for $5.00 each as a reward.  So for those of you who are number people:

Price before Coupons:  24 x $1.80 = $43.20

Minus Coupons:  $43.20-$20.00 = $23.20

Plus Tax:  $23.20 + 7% =$24.83

Minus 3 Gift Cards:  $24.83-$15.00 = $9.83

$9.83!!!

I think that qualifies me as being a "Smart One" as well!

Why us it that the sunshine is so calming???? Everything in the world could be going wrong...but, give me my bikini, an alcoholic beverage, a book, and some Florida sunshine, and the world seems right again. Its days like this that make me thankful to be a native....bartender, where's my refill???

As Valentine's Day approaches, I find student hormones go into overdrive.  Here is a lovely example that was submitted by a teacher after last years festivities:

It looks so sweet...

until you look at the next page:

Apparently this valentine was so funny that the giver lmfao'd with an echo.

That's talent....

But the best part, involved the grammatically incorrect message on the inside:

I guess when there is love, grammar doesn't matter.

With that in mind, I hope you all have a wonderful Valentine's Day!  And, to the wonderful teacher who gave me this week's submission:

Thank yuh for bein there fore me.  Your my lost lady 4eva!  lmfaooo
