I have learned that things go on sale when you do not have the money to buy them. Also stores should have planned to stock enough items so that they will have enough for the customers. I also learned that you are going to soon regret buying all of those items and if you plan to give them as gifts, someone will see that she and her friend got the same gift and will be very unhappy. Also the other customers may also have wanted the same item, and they will be very angry at the lady who hogged it all for herself.

To make sure what you are buying by reading..lol I did read the package (or thought that I had) and ended up buying RAW shelled peanuts instead of the roasted..ugh. I hate them. So, I had to waste time looking up a recipe on how to roast shelled peanuts. Then I spent over an hour roasting them. You have to watch them closely or the shells burn, so every 5 minutes I was running to the oven and shaking the pan. !!!! I guess I learned 2 things today... Read the package more closely and how to roast raw peanuts..lol

I learned that some things happen for a reason, even if it hurts you.

I have learned that I have to just take whatever life hands to me and that there is nothing I can do to change some things. I used to dwell on everything and put myself down for all things that go wrong, but I know it is not my fault. I just wish life would deal me a better hand of cards to play with.

i learned that it doesnt matter what other people think of you! that your health is important and no one will look after it (even if you have to go to more than 2 doctors to get an answer!!)

Lol I only went to work today, and so I really didn't learn anything new. But your dollar store idea is great, because it is so true :)

I learned this morning that if I sleep in for 30 extra minutes, things will go wrong with the morning routine and I'll need those 30 minutes to catch up - but they'll already be gone, so that means I'll be running at least 30 minutes behind all day long. Funny how I learn this lesson every time I sleep in but can't remember it at 5 a.m. when 5:30 sounds so much better!

I learned that if your gonna buy in bulk for resell purposes. It better be the best deal going and that its highly wanted. If its not then your just waisting your time and money. On things that you won't make it back on!
