Friday's Fab Finds.

So, I wasn't sure if I was going to buy a double stroller...

...until I found this bad boy with a price tag attached of $50.

Garage sale season is upon us folks, and I am ready. Bring it on. :)

Pampers- Gifts to Grow Program

Pampers offers prizes that include toys, giftcards, shutterfly products, etc. when you enter in codes found in their packages on diapers, wipes and training pants. We usually buy pampers or huggies so I've been saving up points for a while now. Last year, I learned they also offer FREE codes online! SO, even if you don't have a little one in diapers or don't use the Pampers brand, you can still create an account and build it up with free codes to score free products!
If you're new to the program---click here to sign up and they'll automatically credit your account with 100 points.

Friday's Fab Finds.

This find comes to you compliments of my sis in law, Janet. Thank you. :)

Ever seen a Peeps Easter wreath before?

Neither had I.

But Look. How. Cute.

Thanks to Our Best Bites for sharing this super cute craft on the WWW with all of us. Click here for full instructions on how to make your own AND to check out other fun little projects featured on there.


Ps. I found my *goal dress (same as below but in brown---my pasty white skin couldn't support such a bright, fun color) from DownEast. Ahhh, I LOVE it. (If it ever comes back in stock, I'd like to order it too...)

*Post baby---motivation to get body back 'prize.'

I also adore their swimsuits. Have you seen them before?


LOOK how cute and stylish they ALL are! Anyone out there tried them before? What did you think?

Well---lots of errands to run today. Have a great weekend!


(And I haven't forgotten about that couponing post, it will make its debut next week. Stay tuned. :)

Friday's Fab Finds.

So, I found this cute little *baby on craigslist this week for just FIVE bucks!! More than one person in this house was excited...

Money Saving Tip: Don't be afraid to utilize craigslist and garage sales. I can't tell you how much of our furniture, toys, clothes, etc. have come from these places. And, you'd never even know it! The trick is being picky and patient. There's a lot of crap out there to weed through and it can be tempting to bring in stuff you don't need/won't use just because it's cheap or even free. (Been there, done that...) I try to ask myself being purchasing a 'great' deal these questions first:

1.) "Do we need it?" OR if it's a 'want' "Can we use it NOW or in the NEAR future?

2.) Do I love it? (Or will it sit hanging in my closet for 2 years until I donate it to goodwill?)

3.) "Where would I put it?"

If it's not needed or can't be used now and you have no idea where it would even go, it's probably better to pass it up! Or so begins the clutter monster...

This has helped me anyway.

Do you have any good craigslist/garage sale or other tips you'd like to share? I'm definitely no expert and would love us all to learn from each other. Feel free to leave a comment to share your insights/experiences, or your FAB FIND! :)



*the rocking chair---the actual baby I helped make myself . :)

Lookie, Lookie!

Good mail day. Got a little package in the mail I was not expecting. I didn't order anything from Target??...

Then I remembered I did this a while back...

Alright, free stuff! And the coupons are excellent too. If you wear make-up, you'll use them. And since they're Target coupons, there is great potential to stack them with manufacturer's coupons.

Any of you get your bags yet? What was in yours? (I noticed we didn't get everything the site depicted but then I remembered, hello? I didn't pay for any of it and the survey took like 2 seconds...)

Obviously, it doesn't take much to get me excited. (Even though my daughter has already taken a huge bite out of my new chapstick...) You can't beat free! Hope you got in on this deal too!

ME-OW.

Please forgive me for not posting regularly. I'll work on it. In the meantime, enjoy this GEM.

Friday's Fab Finds

So much for my goal of posting at least 3x per week.

Okay, really, I'm not giving up on my goal...I just got off track this week. (And I didn't run across anything super amazing that I just couldn't pass up the opportunity to share...) It was my birthday week, so I catch a break there, right? Thanks for understanding. :)

Anyhow-I think I'm going to continue with the Friday theme, and my sister, Allison, gave me inspiration for this one. (Thanks!) She introduced me to a fun little church site, Green Jello with Carrots. Heard of it? I thought I had. (I was thinking of Tatertots and Jello... a super cute craft site) What's with these Utah peeps and their Jello and casserole obsession? Yikes.

I mean, really?

Ah, I digress. Let me tell you about this site which is tons more appetizing than the above. Or actually, click the link above and can check it out for yourself. I've got ideas spinning in my head about getting some of their primary activity sheets, laminating them and using them for FHE's and during sacrament time.

While there, I noticed they have a blog and are having a fun giveaway this weekend (they have some kind of freebie every Friday, suh-sweet.) so what better way to try them out then to have a chance at winning some items for free? And there's 3 winners, score. Consider yourself now informed.

Good luck! And don't feel guilty if you win and I don't. I'll be happy for you, I promise. (And receiving chocolate in the mail may just solidify the previous statement.)
