Free-Bees Giveaways,
Free-or Cheap-Family Fun
Everyone’s got those long road trips coming up, and my MacLean gets extremely carsick if we run a tv. Audio books are always a first choice, anyway. You can find free ones at http://www.storynory.com/ and http://www.audiblekids.com/. Thanks, One Cheap Chick!

This is a plan-ahead, but Home Depot’s kid’s workshops always fill up really quickly. The little ones can build a cute message center for free–perfect for back to school!
www.homedepot.com to find your location and sign up.

I admit it. I’m a sucker for Cuisinart. Especially since The Todd is the cook and he gets as giddy as a schoolgirl when he gets fancy new gadgets for the kitchen. I just bought him this pretty stainless steel mixer/shredder thingie, regularly $60.00–for $24.95 with free shipping! Their gorgeous 12 piece pan set is down from $610.00 to $230.00. Yow…that’s one heck of a Christmas present! Hmmm… www.amazon.com/cuisinart

The retail defeat watch continues…I mentioned a couple of weeks ago that retailers have given up on summer and are dumping inventory like mad to open space for an early fall and Christmas layout. Target’s the latest: toys are up to 75% off–look for the little red stickers and also check the baby/kids section. I found strollers for 75% off, and tons of boy’s clothes, including staples like underwear and socks. Sure, that doesn’t sound all sexy and exciting–until you’re a mother and discover how expensive underwear and socks ARE. Lots of the best bargains aren’t being advertised–look for the red stickers, I tell you!

This is a ‘use it or lose it’ kinda deal–there’s some amazing instore coupons for Toys R’ Us and Babies R’ Us–but they’re only good TODAY. If you’ve been hovering for a closeout swimming pool or inflatable, this is the time. We found a bounce castle at our local Toys R’ Us that had been marked down from $450.00 to $211.00. With the coupon, that took it to $181.00 for a bounce house that the twins use EVERY day. No joke, they’ve worn through two. All you hear is the sad little whimper of the blower as it gasps it’s last…

$1.00 off the Hefty Extend Bags: http://www.coupons.com/
(Just a reminder, the milk, cheese and yogurt coupons I told you about Thursday are still up! Several of the girls used the same milk coupon and it scanned 75 cents off every gallon!)
$1.00 off anything
$1.00 on Fuze Beverage (ooo! try the tropical fruit one, no carbs!)
$1.50 off Nestea beverage
$1.00 off 2 bic stationary pen packs
$5.00 off Hasbro games
(Editor’s note: interesting side note that board game sales have shot up three THOUSAND percent this year. We’re all staying home and canceling the expensive cable bills. The Todd and I are getting the twins into Scrabble–but they keep insisting on theme games, like “bloody words, words having to do with candy, terms that involve the word ‘poop’…sigh. At least they’re spelling, right?)
