Woot!

Have you heard of Woot.com?! They post one amazing deal every day. My husband, who is not much of a computer user heard or found it one day, and ever time I was on the computer he'd say "Hey, what's on woot?!" So now everyday, we check it out.

Like today is a fab deal on an Acer Aspire One 10.1” Netbook with Windows 7 Starter only $ 219.99! and shipping is always only $5. Pretty & sweet!

Happy Earth Day!

Last year on Earth Day, my Kiddos and I went to the Disney store for their free waterbottles! This year we will be heading over for these awesome caps ~ just in time for summer!

Bring in 6 empty plastic bottles or soda cans to the Disney Store from 10AM-8PM. Each guest that successfully tosses the bottles into the globe bin will receive a FREE Friends for Change and Disney Store youth sized baseball cap, while supplies last! Baseball caps are made out of 100% recycled materials. Limit one baseball cap per guest.

Thank you hip2save!

Coming back

I haven't been good at blogging about my savings lately it seems. A few things have gotten in the way lately. A big one, my kids! But I can't sacrifice time with them, they are so young, and growing so quickly before my eyes. However that doesn't mean I'm not still a smart shopper! Some of my very favorite things to do are shopping and couponing. Every now and again though we all need a break, and that is what I've taken lately. To bring myself back I've been checking back with a lot of my fav couponing blogs and would love to share them with you:

The ultimate: Hip2save.com

Also:
Becentsable.net
Couponcravings.com
MoneySavingMom.com
Coupongeek.net
thekrazycouponlady.com

There really are tons out there. If you start reading one you can check out the comments to posts and find literally gazillions of others (maybe even mine from time to time).

also don't forget other place to find coupons:
coupons.com

redplum.com
mambosprouts.com

So if you've been on vaca from couponing and shopping savvy smart, maybe it's time you get back to it! And enjoy!

Mail Call - Heathy Choices Edition

I was thrilled with the mail today! We got free samples for VitaSpelt pasta and Kashi Honey Sunshine cereal. Both healthy options! Plus there was a 40 cents off coupon peelie for the VitaSpelt and 5 high value $1.50 off coupons + 1 FREE box for the Kashi cereal! Yeah!

How to make wipes look interesting?

I tried several different ways... but perhaps the best way is to say that I got these for only 14 cents each. Sounds good to me! They are flushable wipes - good for my toilet trained girls, but I find them just as good for my baby in diapers. Quick and easy to throw in the diaper bag!
