I got a $50 Barnes and Noble gift card for my birthday. I went to Barnes and Noble thru MyPoints and bought 5 books yesterday. I get 10 points/dollar thru MyPoints. I got 4 of the Ilona Andrews books that I've been wanting and 1 J.D. Robb book. I got free shipping and before checking out I found a promotion code on RetailMeNot for 10% off the whole order. I paid $43.92 off my $50 gift card.
I also ordered $75 in rebate checks from my credit card rewards.
I'm trying to keep the heat turned off today for the first time. It's a little chilly in here in my office, but I'm almost done and can go sit in my recliner with a blanket on my lap soon.
I've been working on going thru all drawers, closets and cabinets to organize and get rid of stuff. I'm in a get rid of it mood, so lots of things are going in the garage sale/donation pile. I've finished my office, 2nd bedroom and upstairs bath now. I'm working on my craft room which will take lots of time. I have a ton of Miniature magazines that I'm going back thru to see if I want to keep or not. So far about 90% are going in the donate pile. I probably have 500 magazines, so that will take a while.
I finished reading the library book Secrets to the Grave by Tami Hoag. Mystery - very good.
