Don't throw that old shirt away!

It's Don't Throw That Away Tuesday!

This tutorial provides a really cute way to reuse a mens' dress shirt by turning it into a toddler dress. Not exactly seasonal right now, but if you know that you might want to make some next spring/summer, you can hold on to any shirts that you might otherwise get rid of.

It's a really simple dress to make (as evidenced by the fact that I made one and my sewing skills are definitely subpar). Also, I think it was a good practice sewing project. Since I'm not very good at sewing, I'm hesitant to spend money on fabrics. My daughter really loves hers. I just spent about 10 minutes yesterday convincing her that she couldn't wear it because it's way too cold!

The shirt that I used to make the dress has already been used by three people... first, my dad, then me, and now my daughter!

Bloom Triple Coupon 12/5 - 12/7

InshaAllah (God willing), it looks like Bloom will tripling coupons this weekend (Friday, Saturday, and Sunday). Their policy is to triple up to $.99 and allow a limit of 20 coupons per customer (I didn't see anything about a limit on identical coupons).

There's discussion of this promotion here on Hot Coupon World and it looks like there are already some good matchups! At $.25 after coupon for the Fresh Express salads, I know that will be on my list!

InshaAllah (God willing), the next time I shop the K-mart deals, I will be sure to get out early on Sunday morning! A lot of the things that were deals this time, though, should still work for whenever the next promotion occurs, inshaAllah. So, I'm thinking I'll keep the coupons set aside so that I'm ready to go.
