  • Limit 1 per person. Groupon purchase may take up to 48 hours to process. Valid on purchase of $20 or more until 7/30/2011 at Old Navy Stores only.

My Favorite Christmas Picture . . . so far

For years I had never sent pictures with my Christmas cards.  I just did not think about it until I had kids.  The first year our son was born he was about 6 months old and during Christmas we went to the portrait studio and had Christmas pictures taken.  I don't even remember if I sent them with our Christmas cards or not, but the next year I remember our pictures.  It was the first year that I tried to take our family picture by myself and then put it into a Christmas card.  I used Shutterfly to do that.

I had us sit in front of our Christmas tree and it actually turned out pretty good.  It was the first year we lived in our own house.  The only thing I regret is the blinds in the background.  Otherwise, I was so excited to be able to do our Christmas pictures at home because with a young child, pictures at a professional studio are never fun or easy!  Of course I still have a lot to learn about lighting and placement but oh well.


I love Shutterfly.  My love of Shutterfly all started with that first Christmas card because it enabled me to add my own picture and to say what I wanted to say.  


If you are wanting to stage your own Christmas photo this year, I highly recommend checking out Shutterfly's many Christmas photo cards.  They have a lot to choose from.  I personally like these two:



They have holiday cards to check out as well.  Then you could buy some address labels to put on your cards.

If you are looking for gift ideas go see their many calendars that you could make for a loved one.

Their gift tags are a cute way to personalize your gifts.


I used Shutterfly for all of my baby announcements.  I used Shutterfly for birthday party invites.  I used Shutterfly to make brag books for my mother-in-law, mother and stepmother.  Yes, I am a fan.

Also, right now you can get free shipping for orders that are $30 or more by entering the code: SHIP30 at checkout.

Disclosure:  I was given 50 free holiday cards by Shutterfly for an honest review.  The words are my own and I have used Shutterfly for at least 4 years for all of my picture needs so I do recommend them.

Super Savings Saturday

Week three of the $40 a week grocery budget (right isn't it - I lose track).  Anyway, still did pretty well this week.  I didn't stock up on meat.  I stocked up on some household and health and beauty items.  I promise I will stock up on meat next week.

Trip #1 - Kroger



This Kroger run was actually fun.  One reason is that I was able to take only one child.  It was also in the morning and there was lots of mark downs going on.  I was able to get a good deal on several organic items including eggs and milk!  When I went to check out the total was $33 something before my coupons.  I handed her my coupons and it brought the total to $20.18.  The cashier said, "You did your homework."  I used Money Saving Mom and Bargain Briana to find the deal match ups (like I usually do).

Trip #2 CVS (on my way home from Kroger)


I paid $0.94 tax for the above items.  CVS sent me coupons to get these items free.  I couldn't believe it.

Trip #3 Walgreens



I spent $14.89 on this trip because we needed diapers and my husband always seems to need shaving cream plus there was free razors included in the shaving cream.

So I spent $36.01.

I guess now I am trying to decide what to do about household items.  For instance we used to  buy diapers, toilet paper and paper towels at Sam's but if I did that now my budget would be more so I am wondering if I should have a separate household budget or plan to up my budget to $50 or so to account for household stuff.  What does everyone else do?

Super Savings Saturday, Week 2 of the $40 budget

Here it is, week 2 of my $40 a week grocery budget and I actually made it another week.  Well, I overspent by $1.00 but for me that is still success!  I went to Target and Aldi.  I didn't get a picture of my Aldi groceries, well I thought I did but the memory stick wasn't in the camera.  Yes, I know, I am brilliant.


I spent $20.16 at Target.  I bought 2 lunchables, 3 packages  of  Chips Ahoy Cookies (I know, but I did take them to a couple people's houses), gallon of milk, 2 loaves of bread, 2 Kikkoman teriyaki sauces, 12 mini loaf foil pans (to be used for Christmas gifts), 2 boxes of Triscuits, 2 pkgs. of Oscar Meyer lunch meat and GE light bulbs and 4 packages of Bic pens.  I found a new website called Totally Target where I found a lot of the deals with coupon match ups.

At Aldi I spent $20.58 because I got suckered into getting my son a $0.59 KitKat.  Oh, I can't believe I did that but he was so cute.  Anyway, at Aldi I just stocked up on some staples - 2 bags of flour, brown sugar, powdered sugar, regular sugar (I was making cinnamon rolls), 2 packages of butter, 2 gallons of  milk, vegetable oil and I think that was about it.

Again I will say that obviously what I bought doesn't make meals, but I have a lot of vegetables and fruit canned and frozen.  I still have some meat in the freezer as well, but I will need to stock up on that this coming week.  I am hoping to make it to Trader Joes sometime soon so I can see how  much I can get there for $40.00.  We shall see.

Super Savings Saturday



You know I go back and forth on coupons.  I love them and I hate them (you've heard that before).  Hey I don't claim to be perfect (if you know me personally you are well aware of this).  I do change my mind.  Last night after looking at our utility bills my husband and I decided we would try out the Money Saving Mom's way of grocery shopping for a little while to see if it would work for us.  Now I do try to get natural products and organics when I can and I won't compromise on my beef but I will be okay buying a few things here and there that might not meet all of my criteria.  On Friday night after the kids went to bed I put together my list of deals that I wanted to do and then on Saturday I took all three kids by myself and went to two different stores.  One of the ladies in the aisles looked at me and said, "You're brave."

The kids were actually really well behaved.  I gave them a talk before going into each store.  I said that mommy was trying to save as much money as I could because daddy works really hard for the money we get and we need to be good stewards of it (then I explained what stewards meant).  So I told them that meant not asking for candy or other things.  I had a very specific list and that was all I was getting.

I used Money Saving Mom and Bargain Briana and copy and pasted my deals to a Word document.  I then printed off coupons and paper clipped them to the specific store list.  I then went through any coupons I already had and added them as well.

I picked items we needed and then a few extras that we would eat that were really cheap.  I went to Target earlier in the week so those items aren't pictured but I got 3 tubs of Huggies baby wipes, a bag of Hershey's special dark kisses, Target bread and 2 dozen eggs and Reach floss.  I spent $7.23 there.

Today I went to Meijer and spent $9.00.  I only had a few items there and so I went through the self check out lane but the cashier became really annoyed at me because she kept having to come over and log in because the Meijer Mealbox coupons kept messing up (which they always do).  I explained to her that I was not trying to cheat the system and she just didn't like coupons, but I knew exactly how much I was going to spend and I was not going over.   I bought Yoplait Greek yogurt (I had a free coupon), 2 KC Masterpiece BBQ sauces, 2 Hidden valley dressings, 2 Fiber one bars, Cascade, Always pads. 

Lastly, I went to Marsh where I spent the most money.  I spent $23.16.  I bought 2 10 lb. bags of potatoes, 2 bags of apples, 1 package of turkey bacon, 4 pizza roll boxes, 2 packages of Oscar Meyer lunch meat, 2 bottles of V8 Fusion as pictured above.

I did forget to buy milk so I will be buying a couple gallons tomorrow but otherwise this will last us the week.  Remember though I have a lot of home canned stuff and I do have some meat and chicken in the freezer from previous weeks.  This is the first week I am trying this so we will see how I incorporate the higher cost of meat into the budget.  I am hoping to stay between $40-$60 per week (grocery budget only).  I will probably be making some freezer fries this week with all of the potatoes.

So I spent $39.39.  And my husband is laughing at me right now for blogging about this.  Oh well, at least he will have food for the week.

JC Penney Cheap Shoes!

 If you read Money Saving Mom you probably already know about this deal, but if you don't here are the details.  These are straight from Money Saving Mom's website.  I personally use Ebates and really like it.  I just also bought two pair of kids shoes.  I did have to do them seperately but it was fine because the shipping is free!  Thanks Money Saving Mom!


JCPenney is still offering free standard shipping on all their shoes. Plus, they just released another coupon code (GO4TEN) which gives you $10 off any order of $10 or more.
Stack these two deals together, and you have one super sweet deal on shoes! Shoes begin as low as $4.99, but your total has to be over $10 in order to use the coupon.
Shop through Ebates to get 3% cashback on your order plus a $5 bonus if you’re a new sign-up.
Thanks, Money Saving Madness!
 
And there’s yet another $10 off $10 coupon code available to use at JCPenney.com in addition the one I posted about earlier this morning! Just use coupon code LIZ4YOU and you’ll get $10 off any order of $10 or more.
Since shoes ship free right now, that’s the best deal to use this code on. Read more details on how to work the deal here.
Thanks, Coupon Katarina!

Holiday World tickets, the special is on again!

UPDATE: My sister informed me that she actually spoke with a representative from the magazine and she was actually the LAST one to get the tickets. So if you are subscribing to get them make sure you call the magazine directly and find out if the tickets are still available because I do not believe they are.

If you read my previous post, I ordered a subscription to Indianapolis Woman's magazine and received two Holiday World tickets. I have since went to Holiday World and the tickets worked beautifully. This is a really awesome deal considering you get the subscription for $18.00 and each ticket is priced at $39.95 each. So go here and check it out!

Savings Saturday

So, I do have pictures, but my sister is suppose to load them and send them to me since we took them with my step mom's camera. So, they may be up later, and they may not. She's planning a wedding and she cannot think straight these days. Also, I was so excited because I went to the CVS by my dad's house (not my usual one) and they had the Coppertone Water Baby sunscreen sticks for $4.49 and they worked for the $10.00 deal. It was so exciting. (I know, I need help).

You can also see my Wal-mart deal that I did this week here.

1 Hershey’s Special Dark Bar at $0.50

2 CBS Tampons 5 ct at $1.49 each - $1.49 in ECB back each = $2.98
1 CVS Facial Wipes at $2.99 - $1.00 in ECB back
2 Coppertone Water Baby Sunscreen Sticks at $4.49 each = $10.00 in ECB back

I went with my step mom “T” today. We had fun. Yes, at CVS. She did 3 transactions. I won’t list all of them here, but we totaled up what her purchases were worth and they were $53.10. She only spent $5.75 out of pocket, and she got $1.00 in extra bucks to spend for next time. She had to make a $19.00 purchase that gave no extra bucks so I say that she did an excellent job!

Also, I did go to Meijer this past week. I spent $55.50 and I saved $38.00. The list is just too long to type up.

I also purchased 5-pack lemonade for $0.86. The total was approximately $28.21 when she rang it up before coupons. After coupons, it came to $1.12 before tax. Of course tax was $1.42 so I ended up paying $2.54 for everything.

I took my husband so he could see how it works and he was very happy. Also, he kept me on track to only buy the basically free things on my list

Also, there is a picture of an iced coffee from Starbucks. Apparently, Indiana and Georgia residents got cards in the Sunday paper that allow a free hot coffee or iced coffee everyday until July 14th so we took advantage of this on the way home!

Indiana deal on Holiday World tickets

This is regarding our outing to Holiday World. Indianapolis Woman Magazine has a special right now that if you subscribe for a year that you get two free adult Holiday World tickets. You can either subscribe for $18 for one year or $32 for two years. I haven't really checked out the magazine too much. I just read this month's edition. I cannot verify its content.

Even with Holiday World's group rates, this is still a really good deal. I have called them and checked it out to make sure the details are correct. He said there are several left. We have to subscribe before June 30th to get the deal. The tickets are good for this season. I just wanted to pass this along in case anyone might be interested.

Deals of the week - June 2008

I will update this tomorrow for Thursday's grocery deals.

Wal-mart
Target
CVS
Walgreens

These deals are from Money Saving Mom.

Here are some personal discoveries from the CVS candy deal. I used 3 of the $1/2 Gold Emblem candy deals and the scanner was only going to let me use one, but I asked the manager before I did the deal and she said I could use more than one. So when the cashier told me I could only use one I had him ask the manager that told me I could use more than one. So you may have trouble using more than one, but it doesn't hurt to ask!
