Patchwork Times' Judy's husband Vince always finds the best deals on stuff.  She was talking about what bargains they scored at Walmart.  She said they have a day during the week that the discount stuff is 50% off.  I need to check to see if our Walmart has clearances discounts like that......hmmm.

I scored some cheap stuff at Target today though.  $4 pillows for outside furniture and $1 for some seeds that are in some mesh that you roll out to make a flower hedge.  And 50 cent large boxes of baking soda.  We use a ton of baking soda so I scoffed up 4 boxes. The gout, you know.

And for making skeleton leaves.  Are they not cool?  You know it!

 And I picked up my Avante this morning!  Yes!  back in business!

Lose Weight at Walmart?

Prevention Magazine says you can if you do these things:

1.  Park way way way out!  Walking in can burn calories because aerobic exercise is the best way to lose weight.

2.  Start shopping in the Produce Dept.  Veggies and fruits are naturally fat free and low calorie so going here first will definitely help you lose weight.  Cooking fresh is way much healthier than canned or frozen stuff with additives.

3.  Walk the perimeter of the store.  Walmarts average 185,000 feet square so that is about 1/2 mile and with your walking to and from your car you will have nearly 3/4 of a mile with no effort at all.

4.  Buy Great Value brands.  Walmart has lowered sodium by 25% and fats by 10% in its store brand.  But make sure you look at calories before you buy those cookies!

5.  Buy exercise equipment at Walmart.  If you need something shipped, have it shipped to the store you get free shipping!  Save money and burn calories.

I guess you CAN lose weight at Walmart!  LOL
