Today is national donut day. Whoever thought up that is brilliant! 🙂 So in honor of this glorious day, a few donut shops are offering FREE donuts! If your kids are out of school today, toss ’em in the car and celebrate NO SCHOOL!
I am sure there are MANY more places participating, just call your local store and ask. Don’t forget about the grocery stores as well! Thanks Hip2Save!
This is the type of formula my daughter drinks so I know that it fluctuates between $19 and $22 a can. This $5 coupon is a high value one so really nice to have! If you do not have babies, consider printing and giving them to those that do or like I do sometimes, is print and leave them as the “coupon fairy” in the store on the cans! Go HERE and look under 03110.
The daily deal today at Target is for a First Act Acoustic Guitar for only $29.99. It was $69.99! As always Target Daily Deals ship FREE! This would be a great gift for a early teen, my son would love this!
I hope you all stocked up on Ball Park hot dogs and personal care items last week, because this is a fairly slow week at Giant Eagle. Milk is at a great price, though! Remember, Giant Eagle doubles coupons every day up to 99¢.
Reader Gina sent me this pitcure and the following email:
The Women in our church (LDS) meet once a month for an activity and in November, we will be making and donating bags of items to the local womens shelter.We are starting to collect things now so we will have enough in November. Well, a few weeks ago, we had a visitor at church and I had brought in some items to donate at that time that I had used coupons to get, so I was showing them to the women so they could see that you don’t have to spend a lot to help out. This visitor came up after and quietly donated $20 to purchase items with since she wouldn’t be visiting long enough to go shopping.
I was given the $ and told to get what I could with it. The challenge was on! :O)
So, attached is a pic of what I got with the $20 and coupons.. no coupons were doubled or tripled and most items were bought at either target or walmart.
This is what I was able to get:
3 shirts
8 packs razors
5 nail polishes
1 nail clippers
3 body washes
11 deodorants
2 packs dry erase markers (school supplies)
3 make-ups
1 mascara
1 travel q-tips
3 travel first aid kits
2 toothbrushes
4 lip balms
** So this got me thinking…. I used to do the $25 mall challenge, I know I have not done that in a long time and it was a lot of fun. Let’s do this: If you want to take the $20 challenge, leave a comment. I will randomly pick 5 people and mail them each a $20 Visa gift card. Then you can go shopping and see how much stuff you can get with the $20 to donate! If this sounds like fun to you, leave a comment and tell us if you are up to the challenge! Giveaway will close on Friday afternoon.
Wow, the Walmart deals just keep coming! Make sure to check out all the Walmart deals HERE. I know the spray bottles are sometimes hard to find, I would ask my store manager to order them if you don’t have them at your store. This is a great stock up price on cleaner! Thanks I Heart The Mart!

Over on Facebook we were talking about what we were having for dinner. Last night we had Chicken Poppyseed Casserole. This is a fan favorite here in our house! We first had it when a woman from church brought it over after I had a baby (can’t remember which one!) and I swear I had never tasted anything so good!
It is REALLY easy and inexpensive!
First, take your chicken and boil it until cooked (recipe will be at the end), then cut it up into chunks.
While the chicken is boiling, mix your sour cream, soup, and flavorings. Have the kids do this!
Then, find another child who isn’t doing anything and have them crush 1 1/2 rolls of crackers in a zip lock bag.
Run out of kids yet? I have another one make a salad! Then bake and YIPEE you have a really good comfort food dinner! We like to eat ours with a side of salad and over some rice!
We serve over rice, but many people serve over pasta.
This is my cost breakdown:
Chicken – $1.59 lb at Sams ($3)
Ritz Crackers – $1.50 on sale used 2 rolls ($.75)
Butter – $2.58 used 1/4 ($.64)
Sour Cream – $1.48 for 16oz. ($.75)
Soup – $.72 each ($1.50)
Salad – Lettuce, tomato, croutons, dressing ($4)
Rice – I buy in bulk ($1)
$11.64 Total – $1.45 serving plus we had left overs!
These are priced at $2.68 at our Walmart, Paul know’s because he grabbed me some yesterday! Today there is a $1 off COUPON! Use zip 03110 and look under “beverages”.
Silk Beverage Half Gallon $2.68 (Walmart)
