Coke..Yum
In the old days, we would call the grocery advertisements “Grocery Bills.” Things have certainly changed, as in addition to getting the grocery bills in your newspaper, you can now go online and find your favorite stores sales at the click of a finger! SundaySaver gives you all the Sunday ads in one place! I used to buy the Sunday paper just for the coupons and the sale circulars but now I do not have to.
There are also sites that will not only tell you what’s on sale that week, but match up coupon deals for you. This is so handy! I shop at Kroger and there is always information on Hot Coupon World that tells me what the little know deals are, the fabulous catalina coupon deals are and the little known closeouts and coupons that sweeten the deal
Pop has been on sale every week here lately, I’m so stocked up that I have to have a compass and a guide dog to get through to the living room! I have cases stocked up and stored in each corner, cute little table clothes thrown over to look like artsy fartsy tables with dingle balls hanging from the ends…get the picture?
Now, my dear, patient hubby asked what we are going to do with all of this Coke and I replied that this was going to be my secret ingredient in our lives. That didn’t go over too well. He shook his head, grabbed his fishing pole and announced that he was going fishing…in
Canada. “What time will you be home,
Indiana time?”
Regardless, I’ll share with you the different uses for Coke. Enjoy:
- Coke removes blood on concrete. Did you know that? I might need that. Umm, if my dear hubby doesn’t show his face after his “trip to
Canada” pretend that you never did see this post. You are getting sleepy…very sleepy…you have amnesia for tip number one. - I was told that it removes permanent marker on carpet, you know those pesky body lines that the CSI has to place. Don’t you just hate it when that happens?
- If you have a vehicle like mine that loves to cry oil once in awhile, pour coke over the spot and watch it dissolve it. It’s a great company activity.
- If you burn your supper, which of course I never do because I am the best chef..boil Coke in your pan. It really works! I mean, I was told that it really works.
- I did read in another article that Coke will relieve jelly fish stings. I’ll file that little bit of information back because if I ever encounter a jelly fish in the Plummer Crick then I’ll be ready. You never know what you will find in an
Indiana crick. - This tip will give you a twofer! Cure diarrhea, let a 2 liter Coke go flat and drink a glass every hour. It will work! Then well, (whisper) you can clean your stool with Coke. We keep about 10 cases in the bathroom corner for those emergencies.

I hope these tips will help you, the next time that you are at the Chamber of Commerce meeting or the ladies church group, use these tips for a classy icebreaker. You won’t believe how popular you will be, everyone’s eyes will be on you the whole night.
Excuse me, I have to check those circulars to find the next Coke sale!
