Oh how I LOVE a GREAT Deal!!!

I have been a little obsessed lately with good deals. There are 3 blogs I check most every day (http://www.fabulesslyfrugal.com/, http://www.fistfulofcoupons.com/, and http://www.pinchingyourpennies.com/) to see what great deals I just can't miss. Today, as I left Rite Aid I was positively giddy! I just realized, maybe I have an addiction to good deals!! Every time I get one, I definitely experience a "high"-- oh great...I need counseling! But back to the deal- Rite was having 'Buy one get one free' on all Herbal Essence products, and from a blog I learned that there was also an Herbal Essence coupon for 'buy one got one free' in the paper. I don't even get the paper...but my ultra-couponer friend Sarah gets 4 newpapers!...she gave me her 4 coupons since she doesn't use Hearbal Essence. So, I bought 2 huge boxes of fruit snacks (75% off because they're Halloween shapes), one package hair bands, and 8 herbal essence products, all for $3.82! Amazing right?!? I almost felt like I was stealing! I love it!
In other news... Congrats little brother Casey!! He found his true love, Katalyn, and they are getting married in December! Yay!! That means a trip to Pennsylvania for the Ditto Family! We love you Casey and are so excited for you!

TRICK OR TREAT...
The new Faces of the Ditto Family!

Laynie and I were witches...interesting though that she had to wear a mask to be an ugly old witch and I, well I think I look just the part! Kelly was the Riddler from one of the batmans...Addison was a sweet skeleton, which costume I bought at a garage sale for $1 and Hailey's costume was even cheaper...I found at the consignment shop's $.25 sale! Oh how I love a good deal!
This picture demonstrates Hailey's OBSESSION with her daddy!! She L.O.V.E.S. daddy!! She is reaching out for daddy cause he's taking the picture...even two seconds away from him is clearly too much!

Hailey and our next-door neighbor were both little lions! So cute!

Here is the not-so-great-picture of the cousins just before we walked out the door to go trick-or-treating...no one wanted to hold still in that moment...wonder why?!?

Some of the Halloween treats at our hoppin party! YUMMY!
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!
