Free Formula Sample!

Just follow the link below. While there be sure to check out the other samples available. Walmart has some great free samples. They are updated frequently. I love to get free diapers and free *personal* stuff in the mail! If you can't use the formula do you know someone who can? What about a pregnancy crisis center near you?

Just a Quick note!

My basement is under construction!
My children have taken cabinet boxes out back and are remodeling the fort back there!
We are enjoying all the fresh air and much needed time down.
Hoping tomorrow is the last day of construction for the week. We shall see.
The wall cabinets are in. Tomorrow it is the base cabinets and counter tops.
Then I will have to go shopping for stools. I am so dreading that task. Anyone want to go with me?
But the upside is I have an empty tote now.... art supplies with a new home out of site and out of reach of D and N. I have an empty book shelf...new home temporarily S's room. An empty cart and 2 other empty shelf units! ! I still have cabinet space to fill.
We are starting to see a lot more floor space opening up in the basement. So exciting.

Quaker Rice Snacks!

Oh JOY! ! ! !
Dillons has these on sale. Buy 10 get $5 off your total.(Mix and Match)
Sale ends tomorrow night. This is the sample I just received in the mail! !




Imagine my joy when I discovered 3 varieties were what we call "Happy TummY" around here. "Happy TummY" refers to foods that my food allergic child can eat. He is allergic to Milk, Eggs, Nuts, Peanuts, Chocolate. We are discovering he can now have some Annatto now.

These yummy snacks on sale are 49 CENTS A BAG! ! ! When you do the mix and match of course.
I NEVER find food for him at this price. I shop and get great bargains for the rest of us, but not my sweet D! ! ! So doing a happy little jig over a snack that is unbelievably not going to break the bank.

But the best part is my sample came with this! ! !


Now I can go back to Dillons and instead of 10 for $4.90 I can get 10 for $3.90, cause Dillons doubles coupons! ! !

Something I have learned.... Sign up for freebies and trial offers. They often come with awesome coupons! !

They shoot, He blocks, He makes $2!



So Dad offers him $5 to start the game with and with every goal that gets past him, he has to give back a dollar. I happen to think that very discouraging and sad to offer son. Goalie is tough. Seeing this was his first time for the season, not a fair deal. I suggested paying per block. Dad asked S what he thought. They agreed to a 25 cents for every block he made. S made $2 off Dad that night! Though there was disagreement between the judges as to what was considered a block. Being the mom I am, well I was cheering on dear ol' son. Willing to make dad pay as much as possible. When dear son is willing to say "every block is for you mom...." Well there better be a lot of blocking!
