I ran across a few things today that I wanted to share.

My sons had some birthday money so we went to Toys R Us. Nathan loved the store! We don’t have anything like that in Mexico so we spent a long time there. I picked out a musical drum for Ben. It was on clearance for 14.98. Everything in the store that is on clearance is an extra 20% off. After the extra discount it was just under $12. Well it said on the package that with the purchase I would receive a free subscription to Parents magazine. I already get a FREE 2 year subscription so I was reading the fine print and it said that if I did not want the magazine I could get a $7 refund! Not a bad $5 gift! So if you are in Toy’s R Us keep your eyes open for the sticker on the box!

I have been reading all this stuff about selling your gold. Well I had 2 necklaces that were broken and not really fixable so I brought them to a kiosk in the mall called Gold Buyers at the Mall. I gave them my necklaces and was expecting $20 max – she told me $40! I was so happy. It is not very ofter you leave the mall with more money than when you left! It was easy and a good way to get some extra cash! If you have some broken or mismatched earring laying around the house see if your mall has the Gold Buyers Kiosk. You don’t have to sell it if you don’t like the price.
