Happy Thanksgiving!

general, Uncategorized
I'm so thankful for my wonderful family and especially the support they have provided me these last couple of months.   I have some great news to share!  I'm pregnant with identical twin boys.   The pregnancy is going well but it sure caught me by surprise.  I have had a lot of all day sickness and extra exhaustion.  That is the reason I've had to put off  blog posts these last couple of months.    My daughter is very excited and is growing up fast.  I'm so thankful for my wonderful husband who has taken extra time and energy to work around the house and help take care of us. How was your Thanksgiving? Happy Thanksgiving!

Where have I been?

general, Uncategorized
Where have I been? Life has been a little crazy around my household.    As I've mentioned before I work full-time outside the home and then I get home and do my best to take care of my family.  My daughter is now active toddler who wants "Mommy" and "Daddy"  constantly in the evening and since she gets a good nap time during the day her bedtime has been extended to 8:00/9:00.  After getting her to bed, it is pretty much time to go to sleep myself so my blog has been neglected, even my email and my reading up on deals. This comes to my next point.  It is wonderful to have a stockpile!  I am so grateful for frugal shopping because I'm able to have that freedom of not…

Happy 4th of July

general, Uncategorized
I hope everyone had a fantastic 4th of July!  We sure did. Boom Boom!  My daughter says. I've been so busy lately with work and taking care of my family that I haven't had as much time to post deals.  Since it is getting dark later it has been more difficult to get my daughter down earlier since we all want to play later.  Then the rest of the chores and sleep take presidence over posting.   I have some posts coming up and hope to get to them really soon.

Friendly Reminder – No Red Plum or Smart Source Coupon Inserts but a small General Mills this Weekend – 5/30/10

Coupons, general, Newspapers, Uncategorized
Correction: Confirmed!  A General Mills insert is in the paper for 5/30/10.   There was rumor that there might be one.  The last coupon expires 8/21/10. Since this is Memorial Weekend there won't be any coupon inserts this weekend. No Red Plum, no Smart Source and no P&G.  You don't need to buy any papers this weekend.   If you still get the paper I'm sure there will be some good ads and sales since Memorial Day is the kick off for the summer.   Think of it as a break this weekend from coupons!  The following weekend will have all 3! Please enjoy the Holiday with your family, friends and think about our men and women that have served our country.

It will be June soon….start thinking about Father’s Day

general, Uncategorized
May went by so fast!  One moment it was Mother's Day and now it is Memorial Day weekend.  I thought I would also remind those myself that next month is Father's Day. I thought about it and magazines on Amazon are at a great deal right now.    I just found Popular Mechanics for $10.00 instead of the regular $95.76! Wow! In addition, this weekend Amazon is having their Memorial Day Clothing sale - $10 off a $50 clothing order, or $25 off a $100 clothing order at the Clothing Store at Amazon.com You can apply them to top fashion brands for men, women, and kids, all direct from Amazon.com and eligible for FREE Super Savings Shipping and Free Returns and Amazon Prime.
