Today I donated my time and energy to going to local businesses for donations for our raffle fund at the 5k Cat Caper on Sept. 21st. I got either gift cards or services for subs, meals and even 5 half hour massages from a Chiropractor totalling around $400 in pledges or gift cards so far. That is so awesome that there are so many people who care about the cats and our shelter. I still have more businesses I want to contact but it'll have to be later this week and next week as I'll be going back to work. All the businesses were so incredibly nice to me.. I did not get one No. I even got a free lunch from one sub shop in addition to the gift cards.
Unfrugal is I stopped at Krogers, bought a whole chicken for the girls, came home and forgot it was in the car trunk all afternoon in the sun.. had to throw it out so I lost $5 today. I was talking to dh on the cell phone when I pulled in the drive, came in talking to him, doodled around the house and took a nap.
So... sigh! Had to go to Aldi's for more chicken after dinner, girls got stuck eating our leftover spaghetti for dinner till I could get over there.
Two friends of mine who own businesses also donated to the Cat Caper in goods or gift certificates. Thank you to Barb and Terri.
