| I've been on quite a roll recently. Or perhaps I should say that the Lord has truly been blessing me with little financial surprises as of late. The Money Saving Mom and Common Sense With Money websites have provided me with so many helpful tips, deals, coupons, and super freebies! These sites are excellent resources and are updated often.
From reading these sites, I was referred to the Huggies website. For some reason, Huggies has been giving away A LOT of prizes- no purchase necessary. In a short amount of time, I won a $25 gas card, TWO $25 Kohl's gift cards, and a $10 cash card. I couldn't believe it was true until the prizes began showing up in our mailbox!
Then, I entered a drawing on a different site for a 2010 Zoo Book (which is an excellent coupon savings book). Guess what? I won again, and we've already saved quite a bit of money with our book. There was a $10 off coupon to Kohl's in the Zoo Book this year, and I've already put it to good use! I have not been one to enter online drawings in the past, thinking that most were scams, but this has made me somewhat of a believer.
On a similar savings note, Scott and I were walking through the Meijer toy aisle playing with and admiring a toy that we could not afford. Imagine our surprise when the Meijer toy manager walked by and said he'd give me the toy for $15- which was a huge markdown. I thought for a moment that I was at a garage sale! "Deal!" I said, and he changed the price sticker for me. That never happens! Needless to say, Scott and I BOTH left the store with huge smiles on our faces!
So now I'm thinking Vegas. Think the Lord would bless me at the slot machines? Only kidding, only kidding...
Pictures of our soon-to-be 16 month old...
Pretend Sleeping- Anytime, Anywhere
Makes clean-up time much easier if one simply plays with the toys while in the toy box-
Tunnel Tradition- As kids, my brother and I loved playing in a tunnel at my Grandma Joyce's house. My parents bought a tunnel for Scott awhile back, and so the tradition lives on. Within moments of entering his Grandpa & Grandma's house, Scott's usually requesting the tunnel to be pulled out.
Pictures dedicated to Uncle Derek & Aunt Maggie- (Small explanation: In the first picture, Scott thought that by wearing the shirt, he had to attend the college. After I assured him that he could still attend Cedarville if it was his heart's desire, he dried his tears and became a true Boiler fan!)
Hugs all around from our neck of the woods-
