Out of pocket

noreply@blogger.com (Brooke) — Sat, 08 Jan 2011 03:41:00 +0000

Forgive me friends and followers for my lack of posts these last few months. Life is SO full these days! I'm working two part-time jobs on top of caring for my precious family and managing our household. Sometimes I have to just stop and breathe! I am still very hopeful to continue blogging in the future. I've just had to re-evaluate my priorities and goals and blogging isn't on my list right now. I am, however, very focused on continuing to coupon and save money for my family. One of my goals this year (and something I wish I did last year) is to keep track of our grocery savings. Now that's motivation!

All the best to you savy saving friends!

FINISHED OCC Shoeboxes

noreply@blogger.com (Brooke) — Sun, 07 Nov 2010 20:47:00 +0000

Britain and I had a blast putting together our 4 shoeboxes (2 boys and 2 girls) for Operation Christmas Child!!

We had tons of FREE items (candy, promo pens, Chik-fila/McDonald's toys, etc!). It's been so fun shopping for items since earlier this summer. The Target Dollar bins are a gold mine when they have their 75% off sale!

I made handmade hair bows for the girls and Brit made little sticker notes for each of the kids. We included a handwritten note and family picture in each.

This summer, Britain won an Arial floatie at VBS and since it was a free item and something we don't need, I asked if she'd be willing to give it to one of the girls for the shoeboxes. She graciously and enthusiastically said YES! I love her sweet and compassionate heart!

Samaritan's Purse is having a contest for the MOST AWESOME shoebox so I submitted one of the girl's shoeboxes for the contest. The winner receives a $300 VISA gift card!!

We snagged the items pictured above for the four Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes we're giving this Christmas and only spent $2!!

(4) plastic sunglasses
(2) pairs girls socks
(2) lip balms
(4) Tic Tac packs (on sale for $0.52/each - used (4) $0.75 coupons = 4 packs FREE)
