Psalms 23:4
Yea, thou I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for thou art with me; Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.
It took 45 minutes-6 employees-1 manager to ring me up. Why? Because the coupon was 3¢ more than the item @ Walmart 3506 Highway 6 South, Houston, TX 77082
Note* Well I got a chance to experience what so many playaz has said about this Walmart. Three couponers in line behind me told me about how bad it is to use coupons at this location. Excuse sucha as,you can't use internet coupons to you can't use bogo coupons to you can only you one coupon because it says one per purchase and so on and so on. I'm beginning to believe what one Walgreens' employee told me a while back. That some employees play ignorant about coupons just to discourage the use of coupons.

Thanks, Playa: MsBuildingUpDaBenjamins
Friday, January 21, 2011The 20 Most Frugal U.S. Cities - Based on Coupon Usage...
I just saw this on Slick Deals and I thought it was interesting and I wanted to see if San Diego was on the list. It's not the list, although, there are allot of Couponers in San Diego. In fact, there are no California cities on the list.
20 Most Frugal U.S. Cities
According to data collected by Coupons.com, residents of Atlanta used the site's online coupons more than any other city in the country, printing an average of more than $1,000 in coupons in 2010, almost doubling the average of $531 they printed in 2009. It was the second year in a row that Atlanta ranked at the top of the site's Most Frugal U.S. Cities list. (Ranking is based relative to a city's population).
Here's Coupons.com's list of the top 20 Most Frugal Cities:
1.Atlanta
2.Tampa
3.Cincinnati
4.St. Louis
5.Minneapolis
6.Charlotte
7.Nashville
8.Cleveland
9.Pittsburgh
10.Raleigh
11.Kansas City
12.Washington, D.C.
13.Miami
14.Dallas
15.Oklahoma City
16.Boston
17.Denver
18.Seattle
19.Columbus, Ohio
20.Wichita, Kansas
Imagine being a couponer in Altanta...allot competition there! LOL

China Plays the Euro Card by Thomas H. Naylor
January 14, 2011
Buried on page 3 of the business section of The New York Times on January 7 was an obscure article reporting that China had committed to purchase 6 billion euro ($7.8 billion) worth of Spanish bonds. What went unnoticed by the writer was that the economic and political consequences of such an event could be quite far reaching.
China currently has $2.7 trillion in foreign currency reserves, over $900 billion of which takes the form of U.S. Treasury debt. For years critics of U.S. monetary policy have argued that in response to low yields on U.S. Treasury notes and the risk of a precipitous decline in the value of the dollar, China might pull the plug on its U.S. Treasury investments. Others claim that this will never happen because the Chinese economy is so dependent on exports to the United States, which could dry up if China were to trigger a collapse of the U.S. economy by its actions.
In the meantime, the White House continues to harass China on its human rights record as well as what the U.S. claims is the inflated value of the Chinese currency, the yuan. When China refused to allow Nobel Peace Prize winner Liu Xiaobo to go to Oslo to receive the prize, China was subjected to intense criticism by Washington.
In a series of recent visits to European capitals China’s executive deputy prime minister Li Keqiang promised Chinese support for European Union economies. By pledging to buy bonds worth billions of euros and committing billions more to European based business deals, could Beijing be signaling to Washington that “enough is enough”? By investing in European economies, China strengthens one of its other most important export markets and makes itself less dependent on the United States.
It is interesting that Spanish bonds should be the first euro-denominated government investment made by China. Spain is arguably the most independent country in the EU. Its prime minister, Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero, is the only leader in Europe who has the guts to stand up to Washington, Tel Aviv, and the Vatican. The Spanish socialist government is also the most left-leaning government in Europe today.
Spain has significant strategic holdings in Latin America and Africa, two parts of the world where China would like to expand its influence in its quest for oil and other natural resources. Playing the Spanish card was a stroke of genius by Beijing.
I believe there are two reasons why Washington has not succumbed to Israeli pressure to take out Iran’s nuclear program. First, Russia could severely damage the European economy, if it were to cut off the supply of natural gas to Europe in retaliation. Second, China could precipitate the collapse of the U.S. economy, if it were to walk away from U.S. Treasury bonds. By stepping in to help bail out the European Union, China demonstrates that the threat of pulling the plug on its investments in U.S. Treasury securities is a credible one.
The only thing surprising about China’s move on Europe is that it didn’t happen sooner. But the message from Beijing to Washington is loud and clear, “Don’t mess with us, or Iran.”
