But She Saved Some Money

She kept her house dark. She didn't want to spend too much money on electricity. It was late at night, she left her bedroom to go to the kitchen. She could not see that the hall door was closed. She walked fast. She hit the door with her face. She broke her nose, but she saved some money. She went shopping for some small rugs to cover certain parts of her home that had hardwood floors. She saw some rugs that she liked. They cost $2.49. The back had a non-skid surface. She started to buy 4 of them. Then she saw some others that were $.99 each. She thought of the savings. She noticed that they were smooth on the back side. They were not non-skid. She bought them anyway to save some money. A few days later, she was in a hurry to answer the phone, she slipped on one of the rugs. She fell and injured her back. But she saved some money. She forgot about some beans that were in the refrigerator. The problem is that they had been there too long. She did not want to waste them. So she ate them. She got food poisoning and almost died. But she saved some money.
