Get Free Hangers!
What kind of hangers do you prefer? Having ruined more than my share of garments by hanging them on too-wide hangers, I now only use the plastic ones with the softly shaped shoulders. The ones you can buy for a dollar or two each. The ones your clothes are usually hanging on in the store when you buy them.
Occasionally I will forget to ask, but stores are almost always happy to throw in the hanger with the purchase. Last week, I bought two tank tops at the Eddie Outlet for $21.70 with tax. If the hangers had cost me $2 a piece, that is equal to almost a 20% savings!
Try it! What do you have to lose?

Wear Your College Colors Day
Have I mentioned that the hero is 6′3″ and hairy?
According to his firm’s office cheerleading squad, tomorrow is “Wear Your College Colors Day”. Although college logo shirt is the basis of the local “after-dinner-grocery-shopping” uniform template, it is not part of his regular idiom. Nor mine. So when he fw’d the notice that wearing college colors to work on Friday September 2 was being encouraged, my mind raced quickly through the options: dd and I both attend schools sporting some version of vampire-wear for their school colors and the school the hero and I graduated from has the blues. No options worth $pending on.
But there was one other option: the local community college system, from which dd earned her AA. Although I can’t tell you what their official color scheme is, their mascot is BIGFOOT! This I discovered last spring, when I was a student at one of the schools. I even bought a shirt. Mine is a beautiful muted brown with the word “Bigfoot” written in ivory script; this “Sasquatch State” shirt is what the hero will be wearing to work tomorrow.
The best part? It was $9.99 less 20% AND I convinced them to give me the hanger. he hee.
