Inexpensive redecorating

Our girls share a room and when we first moved into our house we painted it pink.  I then hand painted flowers and butterflies around the room as well.  It was really cute and girly and I loved it.  My girls loved it too, but as they got older – not so much.  So we [...]

Walmart 8/3

I’ve been spending waaaaayyyyyy over my budget the last few weeks, so it’s time to tighten our belts and get back on track.  I have reduced our weekly budget (which is usually $100) to $75.00 for the next few weeks.  I will try $50.00, but I’ll be lucky if I make $75 this week so [...]

Target Clearance

Be on the lookout at your Target for clearance items.  I was there today (in a rush as usual, so I didn’t have time to shop) and they had a lot of items marked way down.  Toys, Wii & PS games, laundry supplies – those are just a few that I remember.  All Target stores [...]

Mandee Wardrobe Bailout Sale

Have you been to Mandee’s lately?  To be honest I had forgotten what cute clothes they carry there.  They are having a wardrobe bailout sale and offering an additional 20% off your order.  You can get a  deal on shipping as well.  I just visited their website and they have some really nice stuff.  Clothes, [...]

I forgot

When I did my buying cheese in bulk comparison I forgot to tell you two things.  First,  I also buy shredded mozzarella and it freezes great as well.  I think the savings is even better then with the cheddar.  The second is I compared syrup as well.  Not as big of a savings, but interesting [...]

After Christmas Clearance

I was out and about this morning and found a few good deals.  I bought a gift for my nephew for $10 that was marked down at Sam’s Club and holiday Ziploc bags and containers at Target.  I usually pick up a few things on sale now that I need for next year, for instance [...]

Marshalls

Have you been to Marshalls lately?  I don’t usually shop there, but I had a gift card and wanted to get some shopping done.  Marshalls was nice enough to give me a $25 gift card to show you what I could get (I have another one for TJ Maxx!)!  Why didn’t anyone tell me that [...]

Beware of Going out of Business Sales

I was watching the news last night and they had a segment on that was really interesting.  When large companies (like Linens-N-Things and Circut City) go out of business they have blowout sales and sell everything.  A liquidation company comes in and takes over and prices all the merchandise.  Most times they raise the prices.
