Freezing from A to Z

I was checking out A Thrifty Mom's blog and she has a great post on freezing food. Check it out here.

Clearance is Calling...

I was just at Kmart today and all their clothing that is already on clearance is an additional 40% off. I did see jeans and other items that would work for school.

Old Navy is having an additional 50% off their clearance 7/27 - 7/29.

Last year I bought almost all my girls jeans on clearance and paid an average of $4 to $6 per pair. That included my teenagers. I was able to get Levi Strauss and Dickies for a steal last year. So it does work you just have to really look for it.

Christmas in July?

I know it's only July but before you know it Christmas will be here. There are great things going on that can help you with your Christmas if your budget is small. I will share some of the things I have discovered. I would love any feedback you have to help ease the pain of Christmas costs.

I am a true believer of not wasting my money when it comes to gift giving. I don't buy cheap gifts that break after using it a time or two. I also don't buy toys just because they are on clearance. If I am going to give a gift I want it to be something the person I am giving it to will love and enjoy. So here are some ways to cut costs on gifts.

Stocking Stuffers:
  • Clearance bins: Great place to find lip gloss, nail polish, small toys or other great things to stuff in a sock. Target has become my favorite place for these items. Especially when they mark down some of their $1 items to 75% off.
  • Also if I spend a dollar here and there it doesn't hit me all at once. Something I learned to do is to put a brown grocery bag or small box in the top of my closet and stuff them in there. Otherwise I lose track of all my little treasures.
  • Coupons: There has been coupons that you can get gum or other treats or makeup for nearly nothing. Save those items for gifts.
  • Socks and underwear are at great prices right now and are good stocking stuffers. Spiderman underpants or Strawberry shortcake are fun even if it is underwear.
  • Homemade treats. Growing up we always got a big popcorn ball in our sock and a big orange. They took up a lot of room so the cost of the sock went down. Another great filler is a gingerbread shaped Rice Krispy Treat.
Children Gifts:
  • Arts and Crafts Box- Right now school supplies are cheap. Purchase several items and make a fun craft box for Christmas. With a package of white paper and crayons and markers it makes for hours of fun.
  • Clearance! Take advantage of all the items being marked down right now. A Thrifty Mom just did a great post about clearance. Click here to see it. I have seen jeans and other clothes that could be used in the spring or winter.
  • Does it have to be new? My children love to pretend. Often times I find the toys at the store have lights and sounds but are soon left in the closet. I have gotten creative on their "creativity". For example my girls love to play school and office. I bought an old typewriter from a second-hand store and replaced the ribbon so it could work. I also bought from the second-hand store a briefcase, a suit coat and some other dress ups. They had a lot of fun pretending with those items. Another year we focused on their artistic side. We bought a big white board and chalk board and the art stuff to go with that. The kids got a few personal gifts but that was the main gift for our family.
  • Yard Sales. For my young children toys have not needed to be new. My boys have loved used trucks as much as brand new ones. Let me just say that they are used but not worn out. I always shop with a scrutinizing eye. As I said before I don't buy junk.
  • All gifts are not surprises. Each year we have a set amount we spend on each child. Needless to say my older children don't get as much as the younger ones. If I have a child who wants something that cost more than my budget I let them earn the extra amount needed to get that item. I would rather have them help then to get something they don't want.
Spouses:
  • Again is new necessary? Some spouses are picky and would be offended if it's not new but then again would they? My husband loves music and I can get a CD in perfect working condition minus the shrink wrap for nearly half the cost or sometimes less. I always look on half.com and amazon.com for a great deal.
  • Thoughtfulness doesn't have to be expensive. Breakfast in bed, or maybe a danish with the newspaper in the morning. Or a foot massage. There are lots of personal gifts we can give that have more meaning than an electronic gadget.
Family:
  • Pictures. Target is my favorite place to get nice looking professional pictures. I try to have my kids pictures taken near their birthday so I don't have to have everyone's pictures taken at once (even at 3.99 a sheet it gets costy with 6 kids) I give them away as Christmas gifts to the grandparents for Christmas. They love it so much more than a gift to clutter their house.
  • Gift Exchange? Movies are always a great gift. You can buy new DVD's on half.com or amazon.com. If you plan ahead and start purchasing now you can find them at a lower price. Another money saving tip is to purchase classic movies rather than brand new. Old Walt Disney favorites, It's a Wonderful Life, there are lots of titles that you can buy. Most don't have them or would love to have their favorites on DVD rather than VHS.
  • Ebay. Start shopping now. You can find good deals if you are patient on ebay.
  • Games! A great gift. I love giving away good games because you can use them over and over again. I found a guy who is a seller on ebay however he is local. I was able to contact him and buy directly. That way I didn't have to bid and pay more than I wanted to plus he lives in Provo and you can buy it from him and not have to pay shipping. Click here to see his store. He visits SLC often and is willing to work out arrangements for you to pick it up from him while he is in the valley. Also if you find a game you want and he doesn't have it in his online store you can email him and he usually can get it for you. All the games I have purchased from him were at least $10 less than the retail price.
  • SERVICE! Last year we had almost nothing to spend and I didn't want to have a depressing holiday because I couldn't give anything away, so we did service. Examples are we cleaned my mom's kitchen and mopped her floor while she was away. Another idea was we tended my brother's kids so he and his wife could do some Christmas shopping together. We spent an evening with my grandma singing Christmas carols. Those gifts were priceless.
Friends and Neighbors:
  • Google Search. Last year I simply did a search for neighbor gift ideas or inexpensive gift ideas and found lots of ideas that were very low-cost.
  • Friend Get-together: Have an inexpensive friend party. Make hot chocolate and serve scones. Or have a party where everyone brings a favorite Christmas dish. You can sing carols or have a $1 white elephant gift exchange.
  • Use your talents. I know you are thinking you don't have any but I bet you do. Did you make jam? Who doesn't love homemade jam? Can you bake bread? Maybe you are great at embroidery. Or maybe you can double your lasagna and give the second pan to a busy neighbor. Just start thinking now and you can come up with lots of ideas.

Coupons being cut in Half!

Just received this from PYP very important please read and respond. I know I will be so sad if we lose some of our precious coupons.

Valassis pulling all RedPlum inserts from Utah newspapers!

Grocery coupons found in newspaper inserts have become an important money saving tool for Utah consumers. Many Utah families are surviving these tough economic times because of increased coupon use. In August, Utah consumers will lose half of these coupons when Red Plum coupon insert distribution is discontinued in the Utah market. Valassis Communications, publisher of the Red Plum coupon insert, has opted to distribute the coupons by mail. The problem for Utah consumers is that the direct mailing will be in targeted areas only. There are many coupon users who do not live in these targeted areas and will not be receiving the coupons. These mailings will also be limited to one insert per household. Many coupon shoppers currently purchase more than one Sunday newspaper to obtain more than one copy of the money saving coupon inserts. This provides Utah consumers with increased purchasing power and an effective way to combat the economic stress.

Join us in telling Valassis Communications Don't cut my coupons!

Spread the word about this story! Get your friends and family involved. Forward the link to Don't cut my coupons! , blog about it, post it on your Facebook profile, Tweet it, whatever it takes to get the word out. We can make a difference and keep our coupons. Consumer influence has worked in other coupon markets. Let Valassis know that we don't want them to cut our coupons! On Don't cut my coupons! , you can contact companies that advertise with Valassis and let them know that you are not happy about this change. We've made a list of advertisers to make it easier for everyone to express their opinion.

Visit us at Don't cut my coupons! and make your voice heard!

Beat the Heat with Summer Fun for Free!

Have you gotten an Exploration Card yet? The Community Exploration Card provides free general admission for up to four people to Red Butte Garden, Discovery Gateway, the Utah Museum of Natural History, and the Utah Museum of Fine Arts.

How do you get one? Well anyone can get one if they have a Salt Lake City Library Card or sign up for one. Each month on the 1st of the month the Salt Lake City (not County) libraries receive a certain amount of these Exploration Cards and they are given away on a first come, first serve basis.

Some libraries will allow you to call ahead and have them hold it while you drive down to pick it up. Others it's completely on a walk in basis. Also you just have that month to use the card and see the different places.You are allowed to receive an Exploration Card every six months.

Just a tip, when I called the Main Salt Lake City Library to see if they had any cards the employee said they had a line before they even opened the doors. I called a couple other locations and they still had cards. So I would try one of the other locations. Don't have a library card? That's okay just make sure you bring ID and proof of residency so you can get one when you pick up the Exploration Card.

Last week we went to Discovery Gateway and spent three hours there! Unfortunately I forgot my camera but the kids had a blast.
Today we went to the Museum of Natural History and had so much fun! They have a frog exhibit with lots of frogs and toads. The kids loved it. The exhibit will be there until the middle of September so make sure you go before it is over. I asked an employee what the next exhibit would be and she said they probably wouldn't have any others for quite awhile.

They had a display with live bugs and spiders. I think I might have nightmares about all those creepy, crawly things but the kids were fascinated. My two year old was entertained the whole time. He never got bored. One of the fun things with this bug section was a little "theater" with bug hand puppets you could play with.
So mark your calendars for the first of the month so you can get your Exploration Card. Later this month we are going to hit the Red Butte Gardens. Hopefully we can go early or hit a day when it's not nearly 100 degrees outside.

For more information, contact The City Library at 524-8200.

Newspaper? Have one Yet?

So I use coupons all the time and I know a big draw back is the cost of the Sunday paper. However through Pinching Your Pennies you can get a year worth of Sunday papers for only $39. To see info on this offer click here. I signed up for both papers in March and was able to get this price.

Utah Deal Diva sounds like she is having an even better deal! Not only can you get the paper at an awesome price (I'm assuming it's the same price as PYP) but you can get a gift certificate to Albertson's for signing up. Click here to read about her offer.

With these offers you do have to pay for the total price. They won't bill you monthly. And with the PYP deal you have to have an email account.

Target Toys on Clearance

I was at Target today and noticed they had a lot of toys on clearance. They must be clearing out the shelves in preparation for the new toys for the holiday season.

Also I am not a "fad" toy shopper. My kids aren't into Hannah Montana or any of the big names. They did have several of those type of toys on clearance but others as well. Such as Play-doh sets, games, dress-ups. So stock up.

Smith's Marketplace Flip Flop Clearance

Smith's Marketplace is my favorite place to shop for flip flops. They have the widest variety. Today I was at the West Jordan location (9000 South Redwood Rd) and they had all their flip flops for 50% off the original price.

This is a little confusing because on the tags they have a marked down price in red. I asked the cashier and they are in the process of marking down all their flips flops to clearance so today through Sunday they are 50% off the original price.

Starting on Sunday they will be the clearance price. That will be a good deal when they have their 40% off clearance sale. I should have asked when that would be but I was in a hurry.
