Amanda the Great by Amanda El-Dweek for March 17, 2023

I get unreasonably happy when I can get 3 for $5.

in my condition, it is exciting enough to have some good weather and walk down the street shrug

Oooh! You got the Sweepings! That’s my favorite!

When ever I find a supermarket bargain, I pretend there is a 10 piece band parade, leading me to the register!

biffed it ?

I don’t understand what she means by biffing it. The meaning I get is to hit someone or some thing and that doesn’t make sense in the context. Can someone explain?

Super-saver shopping AND helping out at the church (with its just-enough socializing for the week?) Oh, poor Young Amanda, if you only knew how exciting the tiny wins in life really are.

“Frooty Toot Toots”. ☺️ That makes my day.

I found my lost phone yesterday, and returned the newer one today. They wanted to know why I wanted to keep the older one. I said “Its paid for, that’s why!”

One time I bought 10 boxes of cake mix because they were on sale 10 for $10. The cashier gave me the WEIRDEST look. “Are you… having a party?” “No! They’re on SALE! They’re only a dollar EACH!” I was, perhaps, a little too excited.
