How to save buying grocerys

Its all up too you! Buy what you eat-
Use coupons for products that you use.
And keep it simple. Grocery shopping doesn't need to be a chore.
For example:


This was at Smiths-
Without coupons, discounts and rewards would have cost: $68.02 My price: $14.17

Here's another one at Lee's-



At Lee's without coupons and discounts and rewards would have cost: $67.13
My Price was an even wash with my rewards rebate card I was a little low and added some gum and I didn't have to pay a dime out of my own pocket.

Eating Right!

Eating Right!

1. Indulge in the season

when fresh fruit and vegetables are in season- INDULGE!!!!

2. Be smart in the Off Season

Apples and Bananas tend to stay relatively low- priced all year. as do Oranges!

3. Prepare for a rainy Day

Frozen and canned fruits and vegetables are wonderful during the winter.

4. Buy Frozen-cheap

frozen is generally cheaper than fresh so buy when the season allow better price.

5. Buy in Bulk

warehouse stores can be overwhelming, so know what your family eats and stock up.

6. Make Bread

Nothing beats homemade fresh bread.

7. Clip coupons

use coupons and remember coupons used on stuff you buy is a bargain but not on things you don't normally buy.

8. Go dried

Nothing locks in the fresh flavor than dried fruits, & vegetables.

9. Use less expensive protein

red meat isn't the only protein, eggs, beans. same goes for cottage cheese and yogurts

10. Increased convenience = Increased cost

such as skinless boneless chicken and chopped broccoli
save money and do it yourself.


Keep yourself and your family healthy needs to be a priority. With little effort, you can make it happen even on a budget.

Cuisinart electric pressure cooker


I went to a cooking class using this pressure cooker. And I must say it is a must have. Better than a crock pot.
When the pressure is on, this electric beauty cooks many foods up to 70% faster than conventional methods. The Cuisinart® 6-Quart Electric Pressure Cooker is the totally safe way cook smarter. Pressurized steam creates hotter temperatures, and the tightly sealed pot keeps vitamins and minerals from boiling away. Nonstick cooking pot also seals in moisture that keeps roasts, stews, vegetables and more tender and flavorful. Even cheesecake and custards turn out delectably creamy. Cooker features adjustable pressure and temperature settings to let you brown, simmer or sauté before pressure cooking and keep foods warm after. Of course, Out of Stock but we could order one in at a great discount. Whoo hoo! Can't wait to get one of these.

My daughter loves to dance!

Music is everything to my girls. Especially Nattie, she has a musical performance at McDonalds thinking everyone there is her audience. She sings and dances while kids are playing. It's so cute! The bus driver told me she sings all the way to school and back. Here is a sneak peak at our future celebrity. Miss Natalie!

3-D puzzles

Ok I have had this in the closet for quite sometime. I only had the floor put together and back into the box it goes. LOL! Well, we moved and I really wanted it put together or it will sit on the shelf a few more years. So I finally got it out last night and worked on it all morning and Hurray all put together. I hope it can sit on a shelf in my daughters room. Which will be all decorated with princesses.
