I’m so looking forward to reading Money Saving Mom’s new book.  I’ve made a promise not only to my husband, but to myself that we will be better managers of our money.  And when I say ‘we,’ I actually mean, ‘me’ since I’m in charge of the finances in our home. If you haven’t already, [...]

You can get this adorable Hello Kitty Beanie Baby for 4.99 total. No extra shipping or minimum order! I just picked one up for my baby girl for Christmas (I’m glad I decided it was for Christmas since the shipping will take forever!) by using an Amazon giftcard I got by collecting Swagbucks!

I found some good coupons over at Coupons.com today! I’m especially excited about this Campbell’s “Great for Cooking” soups coupon  to pair with Walgreen’s coupon (which I plan on price matching at Walmart!) for Campbell’s Cream of Chicken or Mushroom Soups.  Walgreen’s price is 79 cents each, paired with the coupon, they’re 66 cents each [...]

Over on Coupons.com there are a few Hasbro game coupons.  I love classic board games.  We have a closet full of games, and I think I need to add Operation to our collection… Do you have a family game night?  I’m really excited that Peamite Alpha is getting to the age where he can really [...]

I had a friend ask me where I get my coupons.  I told her I buy 2 newspapers each week, and get some from family and friends, too.  She looked concerned about me spending $3 each week just to get coupons.  I assured her that they really pay for themselves. Just as an example, today [...]

We woke up before the sun did today.  It’s a very rare occasion when this happens, at least for me – I’m more of a night person.  My friend, Joy, talks about getting up at 5:30 in the morning everyday, and I cringe at the thought. On this rare occasion, we were setting up for [...]

I made a run to The Pig today, and the Lipton family size tea bags were actually 2 for $4 instead of $2.29 like I mentioned in the current Piggly Wiggly Ad Deals.  Pair with the $0.50/1 Lipton tea product from the  7/31 Red Plum insert, which will double, making a box of 24 family [...]
