Product review: Lipton Tea & Honey

I got a free sample for Lipton Tea & Honey in the mail. It's flavored iced green tea mix, the flavor I got was Pineapple Mango. It's similar to the Crystal Light packets; you pour it into a 16 oz bottle or stir it into 2 cups of water. It has 5 calories per serving. I loved it! It was very flavorful and not too sweet. My only problem with it was it seemed very hard to get it mixed up well.

Would I buy it again? I probably will, they sent me a coupon and I'm going to look at the store and try it out.

Product Review: Kidco Outlet Cover

Last summer, I had a horrible time with my toddlers unplugging my fan in the living room. It got to the point where I just unplugged at the start of every day and then plugged it back in at night. After the winter, I had hoped maybe they'd outgrown it, but no such luck. I did not want to go through another summer without my fan on during the day, so I started looking for a solution and I found this on Amazon:

It not only shortens the cord, it also keeps the kids from being able to mess around with the plug. I've had it for a couple of months now and it is super! It was very easy to install, just took me a couple of minutes. My only problem with it was that it was almost too hard for me to open at first, but I've managed to get the hang of it now. So, I have no complaints. Now if I can just get them to quit turning the darn thing on and off!!! Geesh!

Awesome K-Mart deals last night!

Last night, I went to K-Mart after a meeting I had in Enid. If you don't already know this, Shop Your Way Reward Card members can double coupons up to $1. The conditions are that you have to spend $25 on health/beauty and/or grocery items and they will only double up to 5 of them. I asked last night and you can USE more than 5, but they'll only double the first five. Last night, I got

2 bottles of Tide plus Downy, on sale for $8.97, used $1 coupons to make them $6.97

Purex laundry pods, on sale for $2.50, used 50 cent coupons to make them $1.50.

Alberto V05 shampoos, on sale for 79 cents. I had coupons for $1 off three, making them about 13 cents a bottle! Even without using the double coupon, they would only be 46 cents a bottle with that price and the coupon.

But WAIT! There's more! I also used my points that I had been accumulating, I had $7 worth that I could use, which brought my total to under $10! That made the shampoo and Purex pods basically free and the Tide about $4.50 a bottle before tax.

Have I ever mentioned that I love coupons?

Last Day!

Today is the last day you can enter the contest for a coupon for free Dry Idea deodorant over at According 2 Mandy! Don't wait!!!!!

Hopefully...

Hopefully I will be able to write more this week. I started a new infant in my child care last week. And while things went really well, it still made it a little (actually A LOT!) chaotic and crazy around here. And I was flat worn out by the end of each day.

Praying that each of you have a wonderful week!
