Freebie Friday!
Thank goodness it’s Friday! It’s been awhile since I shared a “Freebie Friday” image, so I thought I’d share this one from back in November. Suffice to say, most of the freebies in the photos have been used up by now! As usual, most of my freebies come from following Crystal at Money Saving Mom. […]
Five Years of Frugal Halloweens
Today I thought it would be fun to take a look back at 5 years of frugal Halloweens. Did you know that Americans spend $8 billion in Halloween holiday outlay each year, making it second only to Christmas? That’s $80 per family on decorations, costumes, and candy! Naomi was born in 2009, and we’ve been […]
All Things Pumpkin
Yesterday our family took our annual trip to the Pumpkin Farm (which has free admission!) where we enjoyed a petting zoo, hay bales, trampolines, slides, climbing, tractors, trains, and of course…pumpkins. As you can tell, the kids had a great time. Naomi had SUCH a great time that she cried when it was time to […]

Freebie Friday!
Here are some of the fun freebies I’ve received in the past couple weeks. I was pretty excited about the FREE Schick razor! I also got 4 Betty Crocker Icings for $0.25 each at WinCo because they’re expiring in August. Score! What freebies or great deals have you found recently?
Freebie Friday!
This past month I’ve received some new free magazines, cards, coffee, toiletries, and other fun stuff! What fun stuff have you received in the mail recently?
Free Flowers
Who needs to buy flowers when you can grow your own for free? We have plenty of rose bushes, geraniums, sunflowers, and wild flowers growing around our yard. I love when Brad picks me a half-dozen roses for the dining room table, or when the kids come running inside with a handful of wild flowers […]
