Right now I’d like everyone to take a deep breath in and just exhale out. It feels good to take a step in the front direction when it comes to relaxation. We’re all busy people but it’s very important to take a few moments each day to unwind. Now I’m not sure if the boss at Thrifty Nickel would be ok with instituting a midday yoga session, but see if your boss would allow it!

One of the best ways to relax after a long day at work is to kick your feet up and lay on that big comfy couch of yours. Sounds good right? Well unless you don’t currently own a big comfy couch. There’s only one place to look when you need new furniture to help you and your family unwind after a long day.

Wow what a 4th of July weekend it was! Saw lots of beautiful fireworks courtesy of the good folks at Truckload Fireworks.

Find The Best Deals In Town With Thrifty Nickel!

FireworksHC1307 copy

Today just feels like a lucky day to me. Maybe I’m not going to win the lottery or anything huge like that, but maybe you will! Sometimes you just have a feeling in your bones that something good is going to happen today. Of course I know that everyone I come into contact with is a good Samaritan and deserves a little something nice in their life, maybe today is that day!

One way to give back to your community and get that good karma flowing your way is by donating food. Right now you can bring in canned goods to drop off at any Thrifty Nickel office for the West Texas Food Bank. The good people at there work tirelessly to help put an end to hunger in our community. Truly a very good cause, if you want to see some their recent work then just check out their website.
