Take your calculators – They are your friend

Yesterday, I went to Wal-Mart, the devil store because I spend way too much money there, and splurged on a pregnancy craving (at least I am using it as a good excuse at this point HAHA) – ramen noodles.  I realize, before you give me a hard time about the sodium, they are horrible nutritionally.  But they are wonderful!
So anyway, I went and just hate to have to load up 10 separate boxes.  So I was very happy when I saw them packaged for 6 packs for $1.82 or 30.33 cents a piece.  Then I looked at the individual ones …read more

Comparing Prices on School Supplies

I may be alone here, but I am not one of those moms that let’s their kids pick out their own lunchbox.  The lunchbox that I buy needs to suit our needs.  It needs to hold the items that we use most in the right way.  It’s almost like finding the perfect purse.
Yesterday I went to Target and after looking at about 40 or so lunchboxes I finally decided on the Artic Zone lunchbox.  It has a bottom chamber with container, which is perfect for keeping sandwiches safe.  The top part is tall enough that it will hold a sports …read more

Wal-Mart resets save you $

My Wal-Mart is redoing the entire inside.  It will be really nice but right now it is a mess!  However, I found some really good deals for my church today.  Actually, my girlfriend, Angie, called me and said that they had some really good deals in the infant section.  I buy items for a baby basket to be given to each new mommy at our church and have a great time doing it.  So I got some great deals as they are resetting the entire store.

long sleeve onesies – 4 for $5 and 3 for $3
socks – 6 for $3

Price Gouging Impacts Families

I’ve been told for quite some time now that gas companies are only allowed to charge a certain amount above what they pay for the gas. The Department of Energy even has a site where consumers can report price gouging on gasoline.
A recent trip to Wal-Mart left me questioning what is going on around here. Murphy Express is selling gas for thirty cents less per gallon than the other gas stations. Thirty cents!!!! Unbelievable! Yes, it is definitely worth driving the few extra miles for the savings.

Needless to say, the competition has been …read more

Wal-Mart has the Motherload!

OK, so I just came back from shopping at Wal-Mart.  I always go back to the baby section to see what is on sale and what did I find? …

Return only with a receipt

I hate returning anything because I am not good at keeping receipts.  I had Little Man’s humidifier stop working on me so I was going to take it back to the store since it was a Wal-Mart only product.  They only wanted to give me $5 for it and I totally understand why.  It was a seasonal item and I didn’t have a receipt.  But I got so mad at myself that I just left it there.  Failure on my part, I know.

Wal-Mart has toys on sale

I went to Wal-Mart today and spent way to much money.  But I did find that they have some really good toys on sale.  The one that caught my eye, but I had no problem leaving in the store, was the Dora and Diego Aqua Doodle Activity Mat.  It was on sale for $30.  Pretty good deal if you want one.  At least you don’t have to worry about shipping.

Wal-Mart has toys on sale

I just got a lap top for ABC’s for Turkey Butt for her birthday from my parents on sale at Wal-Mart.  It was originally at $35 on sale for $21.  She will love it and I got a good deal on it.  Now is the time to look for great sales on toys and clothes for winter.  I can’t encourage you enough to shop ahead.  It really does save you money.
