Jesus Saves by using coupons.

I’ve been away from the computer for a week (for the most part anyway) as my daughter had dental restoration surgery. And then I attended a conference in Boston.

I came home to several emails from readers asking what was up with me not posting any deals!  I love it when you guys miss me! I left Squeak and Taylor in charge of adding coupons and sweepstakes.  And now that I’m back, let the deals begin!  I’m hoping our new site will be done soon, as it is going to be sooooo awesome for both you and me!

I saw a “Jesus Saves by using coupons” magnet at one of the shops in Boston and thought it was the cutest thing!  They are available from Cafepress.com for $3.99.

I also read this interesting tidbit on the elevator newsfeed… two babies in both Iowa and Minnesota were born on 08/08/08 at 8:08 a.m. weighing in at 8 lbs. 8 oz.  What a coincidence is that?
