I'm Baaaack :) Sunday, November 27th, 2011

My birthday was yesterday.  Another Happy 39 :)  I let my son borrow my car for the week.  He's almost 21.  He texted me that he was going to have my car cleaned for me for my birthday.  And he would bring it to me as soon as he was finished.  I told my friends, that I was pretty sure that was code for "one of my friends threw up in your car". :)  When he did bring it back to me, it looked like new!  It was really a nice present.

No Sunshine-but still a great deal: Sunday, November 20, 2011

A Sunday without coupon is like a day without sunshine, which is very fitting, since it is so gray outside.

But, you know me, never without a great deal :)

If you own a Kindle, or have a Kindle account, go to Amazon.com---then to "help"---then to "kindle lending to learn how to borrow an ebook.  You can borrow for 14 days for FREE!
Titles that are "Lending Enabled" can be lent to you by another Kindle reader, and you can borrow as many as you like.
It's like an internet library.  Great way to relax over the stressful holidays.

Happy Reading!
Cindy

Pet Care Products FREE: Tuesday, November 15th, 2011

Sorry the post is so late tonight, but I was caught up in watching "Twilight" on TV.  I've got to admit it---I'm one of those people (I forget what they call them)----but believe me I never expected to be.
When "Twilight" first came out, several of my colleagues in their late 20's, early 30's, were talking about what great books these were.  My thought was, "What in the world about teen-age vampires could possibly interest me?"  I am an educated, 50 yr. old woman.
Then a 70 yr. old co-worker talked about how great the writer had created sensual, not sexual love scenes.  I was surprised that this woman had read the books, she was a voracious, but very persnickety reader, but still not enough to get me to pick one up.  Normally I am not a fiction reader.
But the "straw that broke the camel's back" so to speak was another co-worker who was 75 ,and said her 13 yr. old grandson had recommended the series to her and she loved it.  Okay--any writer who can write a book that interests 13-75 yr. olds, I've got to read.  And I did, and I was hooked.  I read all 4 in a matter of 2 weeks.

I told my "significant other", that was exactly what I wanted.  Someone who loved me so much, that he stayed up all night just to watch me sleep.  He replied, "How do you know I don't?".  I said, "Well for one thing you snore like a pig, so obviously you are not watching me with the adoration that I deserve."  :)

Now to the money saver tip for the day:  Visit the Facebook page of AKC Gold Pet Products.  You can print out a rebate form for up to $12.99.  Even if you don't have a pet, this would be a great donation to one of our local pet shelters.  Non-profit shelters are always in need of donations, and if you could make one that wouldn't cost you much more then a stamp, what a great deal!  It can be really easy to be generous, if you just take a few minutes of your time.

Sunday Coupons: November13th, 2011

Okay-if you see lots of typos in this post, I just want you to know that I am typing this without my readers.

I walked by a teacher's classroom the other day, and hanging outside her door she had little charts.  I noticed that on some of the charts, the word "Mastercard" was written across the front.  The first thing that entered my mind was, "Huh--wonder if they are studying Visa and Discover too."  On a closer look, I realized the word written across the charts was "MASTERED".  If you see me pull out of a parking lot, turn the other way for your own safety.

Trying New Things: Saturday, November 12th

Sometimes I will read about a great deal/shop/website etc., and I will always be afraid to try it.  For most of us, trying something new, dealing with people and situations---which we haven't dealt with before, ordering from a website we aren't familiar with is very un-nerving.  Unfortunately, our growing advances in media has made us so distrustful of each other, it's very sad.  Though I completely understand, I'm the same way.  No one wants to be taken advantage of.  That's why I'm asking for your input, when it comes to great things to add to my saver's blog.  If you've had a great experience with a store or site, please email me at booklady500@aol.com

One experience it took me a long time to try, but I have had good luck with it, is the website "Plasticjungle.com"
This is a site that sells discounted gift cards.  I have purchased several cards from the site, and have had no problems.  With the holidays coming up, you may want to try out the site too.

There are other sites that offer this type of service.  I will list these, but I can't vouch for any---except to say that the list came from a reputable source.  Companies that provide discounted gift cards are Card Pool;  Gift Card Castle;  Gift Cards.com;  Gift Card Rescue.
If anyone has had good or bad experiences with the above, please let me know, so that I can pass the word along.

It takes a village to save a $1.

Cindy

Protein Dieting: Friday, November 11th, 2011

Happy Veteran's Day!

If you go to coupons.com---type in zip code 19606, and you can print off a coupon for Wisconsin Beef Sticks.  The coupons make these only 75cts at Wal-Mart.  Several of my friends who do Atkins, use these as snacks.


If you have any great deals that you would like to share, please email booklady500@aol.com
The more of us that share, the more we all save. 

Don't get all caught up in the extreme couponing mindset.  If you just save $1 a week, that's a nice dinner at Red Lobster, especially if you are using one of the coupons that they print frequently:)  The only reason to save money is to use it on something you love.  Life is short---eat dessert first!

Visit the Emergen C website, and order your free sample.

My friend Jane swears by these for preventing colds and promoting energy.

A colleague of mine says that she puts these into her kids water bottles.  They like it, because it seems more like Kool-Aid.  She likes it because she knows its good for them.

Got a good tip.  Share it with alll of us.  booklady500@aol.com

It just takes a little :) Saturday, November 5th

Today is my late mother's birthday.  She died 28 years ago.  Without a doubt, it was the great tragedy of my life.  The thing I (and my brother) have regretted the most, is the fact that she never got to see our children.  Between the 2 of us, we have 4.

I talked with my sister-in-law today, and she was having a garage sale to help her oldest pay for a trip to Washington D.C.  The cost of the trip is over $1000, and my niece is only a few hundred away from her goal.  I was very impressed.

This made me think of teaching your children to use coupons.  Many women/men think they are simply too busy to find and use coupons.  Teach your children, or let them learn on their own----lots of websites available, and then let them keep the money that is saved, or offer to halve the savings with them.
This activity teaches children so many great things---math skills, research skills, and the satisfaction of earning something they really wanted.  Plus it is a skill that will benefit them for the rest of their lives.

Check back tomorrow for coupon listings from the Kansas City Star and the Springfield News Leader.

Christmas really is just around the corner, even though we are still eating our Halloween candy :)

Hope you had a fantastic Wednesday,
Cindy
