I have fallen in love with Ecedrin! Head on over here and answer one question and you can get a coupon for a FREE bottle of Excedrin mailed to your home (up to a $5.99 value). The trick to getting your coupon? Pick ANY pain reliever other than Excedrin. I selected only Tylenol and got the offer to pop up right away for me. You can do this more than once and select Excedrin – you’ll get a coupon for $1.00/1. Thanks KCPennyPinching Mama!
P.S. There is a really good deal on Excedrin coming up this week at Walgreens!
Free bottle of Excedrin!

Frugal Valentines Ideas
2009
Back when we were first married we ( o.k. I’ll admit it was probably me…) thought we/I had to spend a lot of money on Valentines Day to make it fun. But raising a family will teach you many things including, how to be frugal, what is most important, and changes what your “idea” of fun is.
Many years ago my husband started what has become my childrens favorite holiday tradition. I had just had a baby, and was not really in the mood to fight the crowds with a new baby and eat out for Valentines Day. My husband offered to make us dinner at home. He made chicken marsala. It was awesome! He also used a tablecloth (something we don’t do at our house!) had sparkling cider, candles, and table decorations. We invited the kids to eat with us. We turned all the lights down low and a new tradition was born. Every year we repeat the same thing and every year it is the nicest evening of the year. I can’t even begin to tell you how much the kids love it. We let them drink out of wine glasses and use the nice “china”. It really doesn’t cost anything more than a normal dinner but the excitement on the kids faces always brings me to tears.
It is so simple to start new traditions like this, that make memories for the entire family for our lifetimes, I would so much rather spend it with my husband and kids than figting the crowds. Don’t get me wrong, I like to eat out at a nice restruant as much as anyone else, but I love this day 1,000 times more!
