i agree. a few months ago i was out and about and noticed a guy had a medtronic and i about died when i saw it. he was with his girlfriend and family so i just kept my mouth shut because i don't know how people are going to react to some crazy person going up to them and saying. "hi, how long have you been pumping?"

i actually had neighbors that had kids with diabetes but i never talked to those kids because they were all older than me.

when i was going to grade school i was one of six to 8 diabetics in the school. except for elementary school. i was one of at least two. now in college? i have no clue.

Welcome to Strategic Savers Katie!!

The first thing you'll want to do is create a "coupons" only email. I use gmail and use that account exclusively to sign up at manufacture sites and internet printable sites. It will save your regular email loads of junk mail.

I hope you find the group helpful and please do post discussions or questions you may have. Sylvia
