What to do with Free Lunchables?

Alright, I'll admit it, we don't actually EAT Lunchables in my house. So I had $1/1 coupons for a free product I wouldn't feed to my kids. But I can't resist free!! So I concoted this:

Taco salad
1 Nacho Lunchables (stockpile item from this week)
2 cups Fresh Express Lettuce (stockpile item from this week)
1/2 chopped Avocado (stockpile item from this week)
1/4 cup Black Beans
1/4 cup shredded Cheese (stockpile item)

Put 2 cups lettuce mix on plate, top with black beans, chopped avocado, shredded cheese and drizzle on salsa from lunchable, cheese from lunchable (might need to be warmed up a little) and top with teensy cute little chips from Lunchable.

You can always top with dressing of your choice as well.

Yeah, you could make this with regular chips, Pace salsa and omit the nacho cheese, but why pay for those things when the Lunchables are FREEEEEEEEEE :)

Organic coupons galore!


Earth Fare has a new page of organic coupons available HERE and if you had to get a raincheck for the Cascadian Farms last week at Publix, like I did, you're in luck as there is a $1/1 printable for the fruit and the granola bars. I have a raincheck for the bars, but not the fruit, wish I did! :)

Many of these q's are manufacturer coupons, and they're unlimited prints! If you want them, print them now, I suspect they will be pulled quickly.

Free Virgin Coconut Oil!


DEAD DEAL!!!


If you're a first time buyer, head over HERE to Tropical Traditions (be patient, their server is currently being taxed to the limit!) to get a FREE pint of Coconut Oil! I am SUPER excited about this deal!

Better go quick though, I have a feeling this offer will be gone soon!

Shopping for Father's Day

It's never to early to shop for holidays- Mother's Day, Father's Day, birthdays, even Christmas! I myself bought several items at 75% off from the "gift" items at CVS on Friday for NEXT Christmas!

Amazon has a few good deals you might want to snag.


Rockwell ProGrade 12-Volt Cordless Drill only $29.95! Down from $109.99!!












If someone in your family loves to cook, might I recommend Cooking Light Magazine? They have the best recipes of any cooking magazine I have ever cooked from. Ever recipe is cooked, recooked and tested by the Test kitchens and tasted and rated by staffers. They have lots of books as well, to support the magazine, and some of the ones I recommend:

This is a great one for anyone who is trying to a) eat food that is in season (which, by the way, is much cheaper and better for the environment!) b) cook healthier and c) cook GOOD yummy food.







Cooking Light What to Eat: A Real-World Guide to Making Smart Choices (Cooking Light Magazine) currently on sale for $12.21!!

Swagbucks= Free money

If you haven't signed up for SWAGBUCKS yet you're missing out on free money! They recently redesigned the website allowing for more bucks to be earned quicker.

There are lots of ways to earn, but the way I earn the fastest is by using the downloadable toolbar.

And there are loads of new prizes you can redeem for! My favorite? A giftcard for Earth Angels Diaper Co. You can buy cloth diapers, baby wraps, or anything else Earth Angels sells using the giftcards from Swagbucks. And really what's better than free cloth diapers or baby products?? They sell Moby Wraps (which my babies loved) and other carriers... and the price is nice- a $5 gift card is only 210 Swagbucks (A $5 amazon gc is 450 swagbucks, as a comparison).

So go ahead, give in. :) Sign up HERE and start earning some free money. Hey, you're searching anyway, why not get paid?

Possible Free Lunchables at Kroger

I haven't been out to check this out for myself, but word is out that there is a catalina deal- buy any lunchable and get a $1 oyno cat. I know these are priced under $2 and there is a $1/1 Lunchable mq, so that would make them free.

I will post more when I have more details...or if anyone else has the details, share! :)

Week of 4.25, drugstores

A note about tomorrow's paper. There may be a $10/1 Bayer Monitor (Breeze2 I think) in the paper. If we get this q, you might want to consider picking up some extra papers.
