OLD NAVY SUMMER CLEARANCE

It is that time of year again, just when all the halloween and fall items are put out on display the summer clearance racks are marked down BIG TIME. This is the best time to pick up clothes for next summer, and when you start to stock up after a season it will seem like common sense. Old Navy has mark downs as low as .49 for kids tank tops and flip flops for next summer.

I know it is hard to get in the summer mode, but take a look at the clearance racks when you are out and about at any store. Some stores have sales as good as 90% off. You just can't afford to miss sales like these.

Stop by your local Old Navy store for rock bottom prices.

AMERICAN EAGLE = FREE MOVIES?!?!!!!!

Do you feel like shopping? How about trying on a pair of jeans and receiving a FREE movie ticket to AMC theatres? That is exactly what American Eagle stores are doing!! My sister just gave me this GREAT tip today (Thanks Lisa)! I did some research and found out that if you buy a pair of jeans you get 2 movie tickets. But heck trying on a pair of jeans that you may not purchase and then receiving a FREE movie ticket, sounds pretty good to me!

From what I have researched it looks like this is not a new deal, so this offer expires next week.
So if you have some time this week and want to take the kids to the mall, have them all try on a pair of jeans and then treat them to the movies afterward. You will be the coolest mom ever!

GREAT TIP TO SPREAD YOUR BLACKEYED SUSAN FLOWERS


When we first moved in to our home 5 years ago we planted a blackeyed susan plant that had 4-5 flowers on it. Well one of my good friends is in the landscape business and she told me to "sprinkle" the seeds in the center of the flower in early fall so that the flower would spread. Every year we "sprinkle" these centers along our flower beds and we have watched them grow year after year.
This is a great way to fill your flower beds or give some to your friends to do in their flower beds. They are hearty plants that last most of the summer and they are beautiful. What an inexpensive way to add to your landscape!

YAY! CASH4BOOKS

I just had my first experience with cash4books, and it was a great one! By nature I love to
"get rid of things" I no longer use or need. I love to give things away if I know someone can use them or I love to sell things for extra "mad money".

I thought the whole process with cash4books ran smoothly. You basically go through your books and enter an ISBN# on the back of the book to see if and how much you will get. There are so many ways to make extra money online and this is a great resource.

If you have any books you no longer use or need,click on the right hand side of this page and click on cash4books. You have no out of pocket cost,not even for postage!

RICHMOND GOOD OLD DAYS FESTIVAL

I just have to mention Good Old Days, for any local or metro detroit readers. This will be the 45th annual Richmond Good Old Days Festival. There is so much to do for the family all weekend long. Saturday highlights are the childrens parade at 11:00 a.m. on Main Street and the fireworks show at 10:00p.m and Sunday is the GREAT MICHIGAN PARADE, which starts at 1:30 p.m.

For more details check out www.richmondgoodolddaysfestival.org. There are just TOO many events to highlight.

Our family has been out here in Richmond for about 5 years now and enjoy this weekend very much. The children look forward to the parade every year. I remember our first year out here I wondered why I saw so many chairs lined up on Main St. the night before. Well, everybody picks their spot on Saturday by putting their chair out along Main St.

It is GREAT fun for the whole family and if you have not experienced it, come make new traditions.

Have a Great weekend!

Last night I sat down at the computer with some old books in front of me and checked out Cash4books, located on the upper right hand side of this page. Upon entering all my book codes 5 of them were accepted and I made over $10.00!! They PAY shipping and cut you a check, so there is no out of pocket expenses.

So click on Cash4books and enter in some old books of yours and see how much extra pocket change you can collect!

GREAT KROGER PRICE ON BOTTLED WATER

With school starting today for my kids I was forced to think about school lunches. At the cost of $2.50 for hot lunch per child, I know it is MUCH cheaper to brown bag it. I was carefully looking at prices today for snacks, veggies, drinks etc for packed lunches.

So this week at Kroger I noticed you could get a 24 pack of Ice Mountain bottled water on sale for $4.00! There is a coupon from last months insert for .50 , so doubled that would be a dollar off. $3.00 for 24 packs of water. That is 12.5 cents per bottle!!!

What a perfect beverage for my kids lunch at a SENSATIONAL price.
