Haha, the cat looks very guilty, and also annoyed at the discovery of its handiwork.

[edit - in the first picture that is. didn't see the others. Nice show, lol]

Regarding a different kind of PT abuse... My gal and I do "extreme couponing". I delve deep into recycling dumpsters in search of coupon inserts, and she does the cleaner but decidedly more tedious work of matching up the coupons with sales. I had found a stack of over 100 identical inserts with Brawny paper towel coupons in them. I think we got over 40 rolls for free, and I helped her get a coupon-selling ebay account going. The excess coupons were sold for 7 bucks per lot of 20, if memory serves. She made enough selling various unwanted coupons I collected to buy herself a new laptop.

This was over a year ago and the only paper towels we've bought since then were likewise free or obnoxiously cheap. Not that we needed them; probably have several dozen rolls stowed away, but free is free and paper towels are eminently useful if "waste" isn't a consideration.

Also got 4 or 500 bucks worth of fancy "Snap-Ware" for free, tons of free tuna pouches, hundreds of free packs of mentos gum, and one of my favorite heists was when the Meijer grocery store had a promotion for Pantene hair products. Buy 2 bottles and get a 5 dollar store credit "catalina" coupon printed at the register.

Well, we discovered that it worked on the "sample" (Travel) size bottles too. 2.17 with tax for 2 bottles of shampoo and 5 bucks store credit. I went through the self-checkout 20 times, haha, then the next day bought a big pile of delicious cuts of meat, bacon, sausages (you get the idea) for 43.4 cents on the dollar.

My gal is a damn wizard in regards to this coupon stuff. Her favorite place to shop is CVS, because of their extracare bucks store credit program. Every Sunday she shops there, using coupons and last week's store credit to pay for the stuff, and comes out with just as many or more dollars in store credit. I think she has spent 200 cash at the CVS this year and has had over 5,000 in savings. Wizard I tell ya.
