Alice


I was so excited to get my big box in the mail yesterday! I mean, really excited! Who doesn't love mail? And cheap household items? All delivered for free?

6 bottles of Suave shampoo/conditioner: $.60 each
Roll of paper towels: $.59
12 rolls of toilet paper: $3.57
2 boxes of Kleenex (2-ply): $.68 each

Since shipping is always free, all of this cost me $10.20 after tax (Honestly, I have been racking my brain trying to figure out how they are able to ship this for free and still make a profit! It costs me $4.95 to mail a t-shirt. I bet the box this all came in weighed 10 lbs! So far, the only reasonable conclusion I can come up with is that the mastermind behind Alice.com is married to the guy who owns UPS. Seems reasonable to me!) Anyway, I think it was a great deal! Granted, some of their prices (especially if they're not offering coupons) are not so great! Some things I can definitely find cheaper on sale & with my coupons.....but if I can save a little through this site and save myself a trip to town, I'm all for it! I always go straight to the "Other Ways to Shop" tab and select "Shop the Best Deals" option from the drop down menu. Go to
Alice.com and sign up and you'll receive a $10 credit after you've spent $50! Happy shopping!

And let me know if you find out about the shipping mystery. I'm thinking of sending my kids to Vermont and UPS might just be the way to go! ;)

The Great Kern County Fair

Isn't he cute when he wrestles steers? I think so too! ;)

The girls, anxiously awaiting the start of the pee-wee rodeo.....

Ride that stick horse, Emma!
Here she is running back to the finish line after pulling the ribbon off of the goat! She came in second place in this event.

My little milk maid.....

Ridiculously huge trophy for taking first in the dummy cow milking! :)
