{Monday Mantra: September 10, 2012}
I came across this on Pinterest, and apparently it’s the cover of a journal they sell at Target (which I’m making a mental note I must find). This week is my first full 5-day work week since I started my new job, dance classes at the local studio that I frequent start up again for fall session this week, and I’m hoping to get a head start on my thesis this week so that I don’t start drowning when classes officially start later this month.
I always love September because of all the change it brings in both the weather and life (especially considering what I was going through last year this time). This month I didn’t make a list of goals like I did last year, but I’m going to take this mantra and run with it this week, and try to keep it mind all month.

Cheating (and winning) at online shopping

My Target shopping cart was $100.05.
There’s free shipping on orders of $50.
And there’s a code for $5 off $50.

Instead of getting $5 off and free shipping on my $100 order, I was able to split it into two orders of $50.02 and $50.03, use the $5 off $50 code twice, and got free shipping on all of it.

This, my friends, is winning at the internet.
