My oldest son can eat a box of cereal in two days, so we go through a lot of cereal at our house – especially in the summer. So, when I learned about this week’s awesome Target cereal gift card deal, I jumped right at it. I printed all the cereal coupons I could, organized [...]

Everything was in impeccable condition, and the clothing was from my favorite brands such as Gymboree, Tommy Hilfiger, Carters, Oshkosh B’Gosh, The Children’s Place, The Gap & Old Navy. [...]
This week was yet another week with only 1 giveaway win, but it sure was an exciting win for me. I won a nursing bra from Loving Moments at FantasticFrugalFamily , and it came at the perfect time. I only have one nursing bra, as I have been able to find another affordable one. So, I’ve [...]
Summer vacation has arrived in most of the country, and here in South Florida we try to spend as much time outdoors as possible. In my attempt to keep the boys active and away from the television as much as possible, I have been looking for the best new toys on the market. Toy State [...]
I have always been a fan of baby wearing and keeping baby close, and with all three of my boys I have used a very simple baby carrier. It was time to retire the old baby carrier though, and so I started my search for a new baby carrier. I soon realized that the baby [...]
With the boys home for the summer, I strongly expect our grocery bill to go up. Our fridge actually looked so empty this week that my oldest son asked, when we were going grocery shopping. Does your grocery bill go up, once the kids are home for the summer? While you are here, make [...]
Every year I try to encourage my kids to read throughout the summer, and for the past several years we have participated in the Barnes and Noble reading program. The reward to participate in this program is a new book, and my kids love getting new books. From experience my kids have learned that the [...]
When I looked into my fridge Wednesday morning, it showed clear signs of summer vacation. It seems like all three of my boys are going through growth spurts, because they eat everything in sight.

This morning I took the kids to the Y, where I started out the day with a very hard exercise class. In my program at home it said intermediate, but when I grabbed the program at the Y today they had changed it to hard….and boy do I agree. We started out with [...]
I just managed to print one set of the fantastic new Kraft coupons this morning including my very favorite Capri sun coupon. After a very busy and long day on the road, I am thrilled to see that I can still print more of these great Kraft coupons. Which one is your favorite? Meat $1.00 [...]
I was hoping to find some great deals at the Gymboree Red Balloon sale at my local Gymboree, but I was very disappointed to see that the prices were higher than at the last Gymboree I was at this past weekend. I did find a couple of cute hats for my baby girl, and here [...]
This morning the kids and I went shopping, and we started out at Target, as they were open at 8 a.m. We ended up buying two shirts for each of the boys and a skirt for the baby. Each piece was only $2.40 on Target clearance, and since it is rare to find such [...]
