The boys and I were at WalMart and the little one wanted a root beer. Well, my boys rarely have pop, but I told each of the 3 of them that they could pick out a generic 2 liter bottle of pop (78 cents!) They think this is great! Each of them just made a float with their own bottle of pop and this treat will last a couple of days! Mom is a hero for letting them get it

I love simple pleasures like that! Another one we enjoy - the Nathan's hot dogs at Sam's Club. A hotdog and big pop combo is just $1.88 and they're soooo good!

Awesome! You sure couldn't BUY a float for .78¢ and now you have leftover ingredients to make a few more!
