Freebie listings have been way down lately and those I find expire quickly. So, I have been posting all the good ones on our Facebook page. This helps me cut down on broken links, which make Google angry, which makes us harder to find on the web. To make sure you get your free stuff, just "like" us on facebook and we'll bring the good stuff to you!

Sew Your Own Reusable Shopping Totes

While we are out saving money, many of us like to do our part to save the planet also by keeping re-usable shopping bags. While the ones in the supermarket are cheap and handy, sometimes a girl just wants a little pizazz.

Outdoor Projects That Can Save You Money

 Summer is the time for sprucing up the yard and spending time outdoors. But all those projects add up to a lot of money. I found these do-it-yourself tutorials that use inexpensive supplies to keep your hands busy, your patio sparkly and your wallet... well, at least not empty.

Visit Sugar Bee Crafts for a simple tutorial on how to refurbish those knarly looking old patio chairs you've been hanging on to.

My Favorite Magazine

You may have heard me mention All You magazine before, as it is filled with coupons. It is a good bargain. It has lots of money saving tips and articles as well as clipable coupons inside. Here is a link to their limited time sale on subscriptions. You can get it for only $1.66 per issue. Use just a few of the coupons inside and you end up paying for your magazine.
