2 Nephi 3
24 And there shall rise up one mighty among them, who shall do much good, both in word and in deed, being an instrument in the hands of God, with exceeding faith, to work mighty wonders, and do that thing which is great in the sight of God, unto the bringing to pass much restoration unto the house of Israel, and unto the seed of thy brethren.

I read this over and over again yesterday during work but I kept getting interrupted so I wanted to read it nicely in one sitting. That new sister that I set up with my home teacher is my new visiting teacher. I like her a lot because she was a humanities major we can relate to a lot of the same things. We both had to consciously work to include Marci in the conversation. 

So awesome to be discussed in scripture centuries before even being born. I looove Joseph Smith. My mission made me appreciate him in a way I never would have without that. Singing Praise to the Man after hearing people criticize him repeatedly was an amazing experience for me. I've ALWAYS known he was a prophet BUT the spirit was incredible when our district sang that song after a looong week filled with Joseph Smith badgering.

I looove this couponing thing and I wish I expanded and kept with it a few years ago. I never did multiples then BUT it really makes sense. Today the first deal I'm trying is at Walmart. I have 8 coupons for Schick razors that result in an $8 overage. Cashiers haaate to give you money. Sooo I'm combining that with a Lees GM deal that'll get me Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Total Multi-grain cereal and 6 hamburger/tuna/chicken helpers. I used to love these growing up. That is 8 items which takes off $4 making each cereal 1.99 and the helpers .99. OF COURSE I have .50 off each cereal making these about 1.49 each and then 2 .75 off 3 helpers. So 6 x.99 = approx $6 - 1.50. So around $3 for the cereal and $4.50 for the helpers. A total of around 7.50 leaving me around a .50 overage for 8 disposable Schick razor packs, 2 boxes of cereal and 6 helper boxes for them to pay me .50!!!

I can DEFINITELY do this!!! Next I'm going to Smith's for yogurt on sale 20 for $10. I have $1 off 4. Using 5 of these it is 20 for $5. According to people on my cents-able Facebook page this gives you a $2 Catalina or cash back to use on anything you want. So for my next transaction they have this sale where you buy 10 and receive 5 free. Several items are available and each will make the transaction so that each item is .67 x 15  = 10.05 -$2 Catalina = 8.05 + $5 yogurt =$13 for 20 yogurt, 10 brownie mixes and 5 blueberry muffin mixes. 

AFTER I do these shopping trips I'll think about checking out the FD coupon or buy 1 Dawn get one free. ALSO I can get deodorant for .99 from Walgreens. That is a great price but I just might wait again for another deal. Decisions, decisions - it's nice to have all these options.
