It can cost $30 to $40. for ordinary yarn for a blanket and then $15 to ship it to someone. <br />Our gas is over $4. A gal.<br /><br />You could do a companion piece on ways to save.

I don't go for the name brands I used to when others do the job and can be at least 1/2 the price!)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09484225640249496521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3615960162747995029.post-37047295752273292042011-03-06T22:43:05.371+11:002011-03-06T22:43:05.371+11:00I just think we could pretty much put everything o...I just think we could pretty much put everything on that list...LIfe In A Pink Fibrohttp://lifeinapinkfibro.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3615960162747995029.post-81874643369298171892011-03-06T22:31:42.225+11:002011-03-06T22:31:42.225+11:00a cup of coffee!
