Okay, I should start by telling you I go to the grocery store alone, whenever I can get away with it. It is faster, easier and generally less expensive. However, if we want food in the house, I’ll be shopping with kids more often than not. So, I’ve come up with a few tricks to [...]

The turkey is in the oven, my family is all home together and I’m settling in with my Thanksgiving Day newspaper—it’s time to narrow down my Black Friday shopping list. As I sat in the early morning quiet, waiting for the oven to preheat, I couldn’t help reflecting on our blessings. When we spend so [...]
It has been a lot of fun to use my new coupon binder so far—and, I’m glad to see that you are all just as excited about this tool! Don’t forget, if you didn’t win, coupon code inexpensively will save you 10% on your Coupon Clutch purchase. The winner of the deluxe binder system is… [...]
Through my 12 years of couponing, I’ve been through a variety of coupon storage systems. I’ve used envelopes, I’ve used accordion files, I’ve used baby wipe containers, I’ve used file folders and, yes, I’ve even used a coupon binder.

There are only 90 days until Black Friday. That’s just under 13 Weeks—and isn’t that a lucky number? Lucky for you, since I’m here to remind you it’s never too early to start preparing for Christmas. As Dave Ramsey always says, “Christmas is not an emergency.” December 25th arrives on the same day, every year! [...]
Today is the first day of school for the public school system in my area. My Facebook stream is filled with pictures of children, excitedly sporting their new backpacks filled to overflowing with new school supplies. My own girls start back in just 13 days (not that I’m counting or anything). Next, they’ll all be [...]
I’m really big on cooking from scratch, but I love to have dinner kits on hand for emergencies. Unfortunately, most of my family lives gluten free so they get a bit pricey. The hubby, however, can eat as he pleases! When Good Earth offered to send a dinner kit sample, I was thrilled for him [...]
My oldest daughter has hit the picky stage. Little Miss Fashion Plate hates everything I choose for her. Her grandma has started taking her shopping for birthdays instead of buying her gifts. And, even then, she has trouble finding whatever it is she sees in that preteen head of hers. “I really like this shirt, [...]
A couple weeks ago, I had the opportunity to host a Hasbro Game Night House Party. This came at the perfect time—a few local Twitter friends & I absolutely needed to get together. We quickly put together a girls night in—sponsored by Hasbro! Of course, even without the House Party goodies, a game night in [...]
I’m taking over Giving Inexpensively from Alicia today, to tell you about a cool program I learned about at Blissdom earlier this year. Soles 4 Souls collects shoes and gives them to those in need. Blissdom bloggers sent over 200 pairs of shoes to Haiti in February, but the organization works year ’round to provide [...]
