Anyway, write on!

Well the rule was to be thrifty. In my package I made some things from fabric I already owned, some yarn to make something from a pattern I already owned and used, went to a used book store and got a book that she wanted and needed for one of our RAL and another I had gotten sent to me for free and I had read it and wanted to send it to someone that hadn´t read it yet, and made an assortment of teas an cocos from the loads of boxes of these things I already had at home. I also sent her my patterns that I designed as PDFs since I was a bad Santa and didn´t send the box of goodies till after Christmas. And some good chocolate that was on sale since it was Christmas chocolate. It was fun being thrifty and figuring out ways to get nice things together without spending more than $20.

I would think this package would be more than $20!...

I would think this package would be more than $20! Or it again proves that things are cheaper in the US than Australia, even for small consumer products like these.
