deals! deals! deals!

Okay, so I am really Dutch, really really Dutch! I hate spending money and love deals! Down here in Colon we have discovered a very small salvage store called, Kuntry Corner Discount Store, owned and run by a local Amish family. It's on a dirt road with Amish children running around barefoot, horse and buggies tied up, and has no lights in the store. It sells food that is either damaged or slightly outdated. Besides food, they also have toiletries, medicine, hair products, cleanning supplies, etc. We LOVE this store and get so excited to go every week since they get new things in all the time. Salavage stores are becoming more popular and News 8 even did a story on it a few weeks ago. Here's a link if you missed it:

FUN FUN!! Maybe I'll post some of my deals. I think next time I'll get more wrapping paper.

The Kuntry Corner is better than the one in Hudsonville in my opinion. I sure hope it never shuts down. I've never had that kind of Kraft pasta before. Is it good?

The Kuntry corner is the WHIP

Jen - Grandma Nykerk would be proud of you! She used to love Aldi's and Big Lots. GREAT deals - I'll have to check out that place next time I'm in Colon. Miss you and those darling little ones! Please give them a kiss from Aunt Jean....
