All You magazine

Several of the savings sites I frequent have mentioned the magazine "All You" that they purchase from Walmart. It is supposed to be full of coupons and offers for free products. I finally bought several copies of this months issues for $1.77 and was very pleased with the coupons inside.

I was even more pleased when I checked my Fall catalog for Southern Living at Home and discovered it was a new offering and for only $19.95 for 24 issues.

That is only .83 per issues!!! WOW. What a savings.

If you are interested in joining in on the savings email me ASAP. I'm going to place an order Monday night for the first batch of subscriptions.

Scrapyard Crop here we come

Ready or not! As usual, I have not begun packing for this weekend. I have a tote full of stuff from the last crop so I figure I'm sort of packed...I just have to throw a ton more stuff into another tote, grab some clothes and I'm set. What I don't have, my sister or one of the other 38 women will certainly have with them. Right?

Thought I'd share a DUH moment I had when reading a "savings" blog..

Bubble Bath.
Soap is soap, right? So I buy the largest bubble bath I can find at the dollar store and use that to refill my liquid soap dispensers. For $1 I can usually get a 40 oz bottle. (http://frugalupstate.blogspot.com/)

What do you think about that? Has anyone tried it? I confess to putting the little soap slivers in my hand soap dispensers. It doesn't work great. I may have to try the Bubble Bath idea.

I'm adding a couple more blogs to my "Savings" side bar. Hope they are helpful.

OMG, I'm a STAR!

I just have to share this......

I was just interviewed by a local newstation for a feature on CVS..ECB's..Saving money!!!

She said it would air in about a week or so...so I'll fill you in on the date. She also said it will be on their website for 6 months after the air date.

Holey COW, that was FUN. Guess it's a good thing I DIDN'T take the CVS stuff out of my car.

LOL!

What kind of deals have you found lately? Do you have any favorite sites for coupons/deals/savings tips?

Till later.....................

More new sites added

I added a few more sites to my list of "Money saving" blogs. I've become addicted to the coupons/CVS/Walgreens deals. You know it's bad when you are afraid to bring the bags into the house and your car is FULL! I didn't spend much on all the stuff but it looks like a TON and we have no place to put all of it. LOL. I need to pick up some boxes to store it all in so I can get rid of the bags that are piled up in my closet....not counting the stuff I just mentioned that is hiding in my car. At least I have about $40-50 in ECB, not to mention enough "staples" to last awhile. Don't laugh...remember the Toilet Paper story?

I MUST update you all soon...I've just been to busy and now am getting ready for the famous Scrapyard Crop. 2 days of cropping and silly girl stuff. Can't wait. I finally told DH that I'm going. Didn't want him missing me before he really had to.
