Awesome Oatmeal Idea

I know we all are trying to eat healthy and feed our family the best that we can. I came across this option for a healthy oatmeal option that you might like on A few short cuts.

I will try this with my children and see if they like it. I love oatmeal so this is perfect for me.

Have fun and let me know iif you try it and how you liked it, or not.

Return Challenge

It is a new year and we all still have those things hanging around that we were supposed to return to the store but just never got around to it. Well I have several of those and I am determined to get it done. I usually am pretty good at returns but I got caught up and now some may have gone missing. lol

I am making this a challenge to see who have the most returns and regained the most capitol. It could be store credits, cash back or even exchanged for something you really needed.

I did one at Kohls today and got a $53 store credit, Staples and got $18 back on debit card, kroger $9 cash, Riteaid $6. So in one day I reclaimed $86 that would have been gone to waste sort of say.

I would love to know how you all do.

12 days of Christmas for the kids ..... Day One

Last year I did a twelve days of Christmas program for our three boys. Each morning they would wake up to a different gift in their room. Well it was a hit and was requested again this year. The items they get are actually quite inexpensive and I picked things they can use for a while or have fun sharing.

Today was day one and here is what they got.

I went into Riteaid and saw these quite mini cookies and thought it was great and they were only .99 each. I also got one for my mom, who I will be surprising with the 12 days this year as well. I went to Walgreens and got 6 Hallmark cards for .99 each, used a $4.00 rr, paid $2 and change and got back $5rr. Not a bad first day at all.

FREE $5 Cvs gift card when you buy a $25 Cvs gift card

I love it when I get rewarded for doing what I do anyway. I use a giftcard in each store that I shop in as a way to budget myself. I put the amount that I want to spend at that store during the sales period on a store card and when it is finished so is my retail therapy.

The holidays are here and alot of deals to be had so FREE money makes it even better. Go to this link and you can buy a Cvs Gift card in the amount of your choice and get $5 free dollars for every $25.

These will make great gifts for your coupon bff's.

Getting the most out of your day.

As a stay at home mom, I sometimes find it hard to get all the things on my list done. It seems as if there is just too much to be done and not enough time. Well I found a great daily planner sheet for you all. It is awesome and I will be using it from now on. Go to The peacefull mom website and you will find a video that explains how to get the most out of the planner and where to download your blank copy.

Thanks Kimberly

Walgreens trip 10/31/10

I have been waiting for lotion to go on sale so that I can replenish my supply. I bought a ton of Vaseline lotion last year and we have gone through most of them so I am excited about this Olay offer. I spent a bit more than I wanted to but I am still happy with the outcome. The first store that I went to did not have enough of the small lotions to make the deal cheaper so I got the larger lotions and they were also out of the sugar so I got the tomato sauce instead.

I spent $16.24 on all the items that you see plus I got back $20 in RR to use next time I go shopping. I will be getting more sugar.

The coupon matchups can be found on southernsavers under the Walgreens section. You can make up your own senarios depending on which coupons you have and which items you want to buy.

Happy shopping.

Office Depot Goddies.

If you got this Sundays newspaper like you should have, you would have seen the awesome ad that Offce Depot has this week. I am a huge fan of 100% return on investment (ROI). They have a great selection of items that will be FREE after rebate. You do not have to fill out any forms or mail anything for this rebate, it is automatic once you have the Office Depot work life card. You can get one in the store.

I did this same offer earlier this year and got some of the tubs, I will be stocking up again. Tubs and Batteries for me this sale. lol

Go to http://www.southernsavers.com/2010/10/office-depot-free-after-rewards-deals/ and you will find all the info there with all that is included in the sale. You can usually get 2 of each item per day for the duration of the sale. Check stores for details.

Also, there is an extra goodie that I saw in the weekly ad, 100% worklife rewards back on ALL copies and shipping upto $100.00 This comes just in time for us to ship a few things out of state.
