How do you have time to write a blog?

This is the number one question that I get asked after someone reads my blog for the first time.  This question can best be answered with a picture...

My son Lucas is a champion sleeper.  While Sydney is at school in the afternoons, Lucas takes an amazing three hour nap.  I make the most of my "free time".  My sister in law, Hilary, of My So Called Home, gave me the tip on how to schedule blog posts to publish.  I can write a whole bunch while he is sleeping and set them to post throughout the week.  So I am writing this post on Wed afternoon but you won't see it until 8 in the morning on Friday- genius!

Total Saved: $50.14... Total Spent: $3.62!

6 bags of frozen veggies

2 packs of ground turkey

2 bottles of organic juice

2 one pound bags of noodles

6 packs of Starbursts

2 Knorr spice packs

2 jars of baby food

box of baby cereal

Speedstick deoderant

2 packs of 10 disposable razors

So before the Price Plus card and the coupons my total was $50.14.  The cashier entered the coupons one by one and her face was in awe as the total dropped to a whopping $3.62!!



If you would like to do the same deals, please see my previous post on the deals at ShopRite for the rest of this week.  This particular sale ends on Saturday and new deals will begin on Sunday.

Cellfire Coupons

I just discovered Cellfire Coupons.  They are coupons that you clip online and load right up to your shopper card.

For example, I shop at ShopRite.  I go THIS SITE to see the coupons that are available.  You need to create an account with your Price Plus Card number (located on the back of your card).  This takes seconds.  When you choose a coupon it will automatically be added to your Price Plus card and come off your order at the register as soon as your card is scanned.

I found out about this feature at theLiving Rich With Coupons Website.  It is a great website worth checking out!

Free Card from Tiny Prints



I just ordered the cutest card for Valentine's Day.  I got it for FREE from Tiny Prints.  The really cool thing is you can put your own photgraphs on the card.  If you want Tiny Prints to mail it to your sweetheart for you, it will cost just 44 cents.  If you are willing to mail/give it yourself, then the card will be completely FREE. 

Act now because they are only giving out 5,000 cards.  At checkout enter the Promo Code FREELOVE.
