Frugal Saturday fun

Today, the boys and I took a tiny road trip to Lowe's for the free Build it and Grow workshop. They made wooden car garages and if you know anything about my boys we could NOT miss that workshop.

We brought a cold pizza leftover lunch, went to Menards to get some ski gloves that were on sale BOGO free, I bought two pairs and got two pairs all for $7.98!! And an entrance mat for the mud room $2 after rebate. Then to Kohl's to use my $5 off coupon, Joel picked out a clearance shirt that is ScoobyDo. Then to Micheal's to use my 40% off coupon, the boys picked out a craft kit to do later this week, I bought a 2010 pocket calender and colored feathers for the next 4H meeting, spending $8 total.

Then to the Y for swimming, the boys swam for about 3 hours, I went in the hot tub and sauna besides swimming. We all took showers, saving propane at home for heating water.

Then at home I cut the boys hair , the were raggamuffins for far to long.

FUN, FUN frugal day!!

A Product Review and my first GIVEAWAY!!

Image
Today I received a full size bottle of Purex Complete with Zout Triple Enzyme Stain Remover. The scent is Fresh Morning Burst. I am a scent orientated person, so the first thing I did was to open the bottle and smelled it. It smells so fresh and clean, I could not wait to give it a try. Four loads of laundry later, I can say that I truly love this product!! As a busy mother of two busy boys, I often miss stains on clothes before they are put into the drier and set for life. Then another piece of clothing heads for the rag bag. I love that the pretreatment is included in the product, no extra step. It works for HE and front loading machines. AND now for the giveaway, I will have two winners for coupons for a free product. Please leave me a comment about why you want to try the product. The giveaway will end on March 31 at 8:00PM EST and I will announce the winners.

Konsyl review and Giveaway

We’ve all heard about the digestive and other health benefits of having enough fiber, but in addition to helping promote regularity and good digestive health  adequate soluble fiber intake offers an abundance of health benefits, ranging from a reduced risk of heart disease by lowering cholesterol, to reducing blood sugar absorption, thereby assisting in the management of Type-2 Diabetes. Fiber can also aid in weight loss by making you feel fuller longer. Psyllium fiber, such as the fiber found in Konsyl Fiber Supplements, is a bulk-forming soluble fiber derived from the outer coating, or "husk" of the psyllium plant's seeds. Because psyllium does not come from wheat it is therefore gluten free and safe for celiac patients. Konsyl products are also safe for pregnant and nursing women. Just one serving of Konsyl Original Formula 450g provides 6 grams of psyllium fiber (equal to 3 grams of soluble fiber), 75% more than the leading brands.
