They are so willing to cooperate, whether its getting items down from the overstock above or making corrections when something does not ring up right.<br />
<br />
I've also been redoing my coupon binder. It need it. I have finally migrated to a trapper and a new organization system -- a dedicated post on that later.<br />
<br />
BUT here's the VERY VERY VERY important news! The DC Frugal Girl is MOVING! Since I am no longer in DC and expanding quite a bit in terms of content, you'll be able to find all the same great posts at www.EndlesslyFrugal.com. If you're a GFC follower, don't worry! your feed will change automatically over to the new site. I am VERY excited about this and it will be a much more comprehensive site. Look forward to seeing you all there!<br />

My Father-in-Law is one of those people who definitely does not like to make a fuss about Father's Day. It is more important to him, and rightfully so, just to spend time with family. So our Father's Day tradition is to go over to their house and get take out from his favorite steakhouse. We get him whatever he wants and then spend the evening devouring it at home with the dog anxiously awaiting any scraps that may fall (or be handed down to him) from the table. We are also always sure to get him a funny Father's Day card, something I think he looks forward to opening each year. I look forward to finding the perfect card again this year and hopefully not having to watch the golf channel during dinner again =)<br />
<br />
For some great Father's Day card selections, be sure to checkout everything <a href="http://www.tinyprints.com/greeting/shop/fathers-day-cards.htm">Tiny Prints</a> has to offer for <a href="http://www.tinyprints.com/greeting/shop/fathers-day-cards.htm">Father's Day</a>.<br />

It is the light after a long winter and a breath of fresh air before summer begins. The weather is perfect, everyone seems more cheerful, and it comes with its fair share of happy days packed with reasons to celebrate.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Spring has lots of wonderful memories for me and Shutterfly is always my go-to source for my stationary needs. College graduation is always in the spring and this year I graduated law school! This was graduation number 3 and by far the longest and the best. Talk about a spring to remember =) I can't wait to order my </span><a href="http://www.shutterfly.com/cards-stationery/announcements/graduation-announcements"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">graduation announcements</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">. Spring also brings Mother's Day and Father's Day, which are wonderful reasons to spend time with family and have cookouts with some delicious food. We are gearing up to order some pretty wonderful </span><a href="http://www.shutterfly.com/cards-stationery/fathers-day-cards-stationery"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Father's Day cards</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> this year.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Spring also brings with it a number of other celebrations. My best friend just had her thesis exhibition of her paintings and others are having housewarming parties and get togethers just because. These are all great occasions for </span><a href="http://www.shutterfly.com/photo-gifts"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">personalized gifts</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">. For my friend's thesis opening, I took lots of pictures and I am making her a </span><a href="http://www.shutterfly.com/photo-books"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">photo book</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> of all of them as her thesis gift. For our friends with housewarmings personalized mugs are a favorite.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Overall, I love the long days gardening and being able to spend time outdoors with friends and family. Spring is a time to celebrate and enjoy!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I love being able to use fresh produce in my cooking, but hate paying a fortune at the store. And I should also disclose, I am a terrible gardener. I was not blessed with a green thumb. So I was very excited to get the opportunity to try the <a href="http://gardenplanner.groorganic.com/">groOrganic </a>Garden Planner.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />

The interface is incredibly user friendly. You login and are then guided through the process of building your ideal garden. You can enter in how many square feet you have to work with, what you would like to grow, etc. You can then map out your ideal garden, moving things around until you like the layout.

This book, written in a memoir style, details Rick Tramonto's path to his fame and acclaim as a chef. It elaborates on the hurdles and bumps in the road on the way to achieving success and working your way to the top (losing a restaurant to a fire for example). The book is impeccably written and captivating. It brings alive the story alive for the reader and allows one to experience the path Rick took. It also shows a Christian radio broadcast was the necessary turning point in Rick's life and re-started his path in the right direction.</span><br />

<br />
Here's how:<br />
- Go to your Rite Aid ASAP and get a rain check (they will give you a raincheck for up to a certain number of quantities at the sale price good for 30 days)<br />
- Go to the <a href="https://www.precisepainrelief.com/coupon">Precise website</a> and print the $5 off coupon (can print up to 2 per computer; they are good until early June even thought the ones from the paper expire on Saturday)<br />
- Head back to Rite Aid once they've restocked and Enjoy!!!<br />

About to be a former law student and move into the world of being a J.D. and eventually a lawyer. My graduation is so close, May 22. This will be my third college graduation, the previous two being my A.A. and B.A. By far this is the most important ceremony I will attend in my academic career, but it is bittersweet.<br />
<br />
My grandfather was always my biggest motivator. He believed that I could do anything I put my mind to and encouraged me to pursue my academic interests. I will always remember how happy he was at my A.A. graduation. I was the first person in my family to go straight to college and graduate. He was so proud. Unfortunately, he passed away the next year and I haven't stopped missing him since. I know even though he can't be there physically for my law school graduation, he will be there in spirit and beaming with pride.<br />
<br />
My family, my husband and his family, and my friends will all be at my law school graduation this month to cheer me on. This is such a huge milestone and one I've worked non-stop for the last seven years to achieve! So of course, with a big graduation comes the big celebration. Enter <a href="http://www.tinyprints.com/">Tiny Prints</a> for my graduation announcements and party invites.<br />

To eat healthier foods? To integrate more vegetables? To lose weight? Well that's what I've learned a lot about in <a href="http://www.amazon.com/21-Day-Weight-Loss-Kickstart-Dramatically/dp/0446583812">Dr. Barnard's "21 Day Weight Loss Kickstart."</a><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-SoRysCAZAoo/TcQ9r3mYRLI/AAAAAAAAAZo/S8Tsw_uI7ls/s1600/Screen+shot+2011-05-06+at+2.25.08+PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-SoRysCAZAoo/TcQ9r3mYRLI/AAAAAAAAAZo/S8Tsw_uI7ls/s1600/Screen+shot+2011-05-06+at+2.25.08+PM.png" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div> This book is packed with essential information on taking a healthy approach to weight loss and making strides in the right direction for lifestyle changes. Dr. Barnard teaches you how to substitute sugary, craving foods with healthy alternatives. It shows you how to restructure your diet to include more produce to make tasty dishes. And the best part is no calorie counting! These dishes are balanced and will help you jumpstart your metabolism and put you on the path to achieving your goal weight. The recipes are provided for you! Dr. Barnard also explores how these dietary changes can not only help your metabolism, but can also make a healthy impact on diabetes and high cholesterol.<br />
<br />
I am certainly going to be putting the knowledge in this book to practice. I'll check-in at the end of the month and let you know how it's gone. AND I'll try to show you how to create some of these easy recipes using coupons and on a budget!<br />

<br />
<a href="http://www.macys.com/">Macy's</a> has some great markdowns for Mother's Day including Bedding Sets (and they have lots on clearance too). Today we scored a $300 bedding set for only $99.99! And the other one we were considering was marked down to only $69.99. Some were even as low as $49.99. And they are beautiful.<br />
<br />
If you're in the market for some new linens, I would suggest swinging by and taking a peek.<br />

Well a lot has happened that's what!<br />
<br />
First of all, my apologies for not posting about the delay ahead of time. I had expected to have internet/blogger access more frequently, but that ended up not being that case.<br />
<br />
So long story short, I had to travel out to Denver to a competition, then came back and packed up and moved into the house that my hubby and I just bought, and today I turned in my last law school assignment ever.<br />
<br />
BUT I am happy to say that I am now leaving near tons of great stores and am able to scout out lots of great deals to share. Our new house is in Glen Burnie, but I am still the DC Frugal Girl.<br />
<br />
The deals will start rolling back in this evening and I expect that you will be impressed with everything there is to share. Also, I am getting ready to launch a great new affiliate website, so keep an eye out for that!<br />
<br />
Finally, the DC Frugal Girl is looking for help. If you are interested in contributing guest posts (for credit of course!) or creating reciprocal post arrangements, please let me know!~<br />
<br />
I thank you for bearing with me for this transition and I look forward to your continued readership. I love you all!<br />
<br />
Frugally,<br />
