Free stuff good

I keep getting free newspapers...

Several months ago, the Times called me and said they were going to give me a free upgrade from weekend to weekday plus weekend. It would last for 13 weeks then I would be billed for the weekdays. When the promotion ran out, I asked to be placed back on the weekend only subscription rate.

About a week later, I get another call asking if I want a free upgrade to weekday. Repeat the above scenario.

So far, I've only had to be without a weekday paper for about 1 month out of the last several months. It just happened again today...

funny!

So I'm not working at school today. I'm taking the opportunity, instead, to catch up on my Stampin' Up! records and stuff. And other things that I just haven't had time to do...

I'm about to run to the grocery store so that I can make dinner...

It's SOOO nice... :-)

Hold onto the check for another day?

Yeah, papers can be goofy about who is actually ON and who isn't. I bet you are enjoying the extra news :)

Ok. I'll put in the order tomorrow. Does it matter when I deposit the check tomorrow?
