busy busy

*Too busy to blog, but I Hope you're all celebrating a wonderful Easter weekend with your family!

*I've taken advantage of lots of the great deals out there this week. Too much to list, but off the top of my head it was Dunkin Donuts coffee, shave gel, toothpaste, oh, and I'm still picking up a few packs of fruit snacks each time I go into Target :) - and yes, you can print out their store coupons from the kiosk - you have to click shop on line, then print them out as you would at home. Pretty sneaky.

*In case you hadn't heard/read - no coupon inserts in the paper this week.

*Most importantly, I wanted to point out that Mardel (71st & Mingo) has The Beginner's Bible on sale for $5 (must be the ones off the value table, not the back wall). What a WONDERFUL deal! I picked one up for my 3 year old. Sometimes when I find a great kids' Bible, I'm reluctant to actually let them use it and read it without me there making sure it stays "looking new." So, I can get rid of that little perfectionism this Sunday! I thought this would also make a great inexpensive gift to have on hand for someone that could use one. You never know!

*Also, while you're at Mardel, you might want to get a set of Resurrection Eggs on sale for $10. I love using these in my class - they are a great visual and hands-on activity for kids, and you can use them over and over each year! Oh, how my heart just melted the first time I heard my son tell the Easter story with these to his cousins. Like I said, for $10 they are a good deal, but really, they are priceless!

*Have a blessed weekend! - E :)

diet coke junkies

Because I REFUSE to pay these ridiculous prices of over $4 each, I stopped by Reasors on the way to church tonight to get some Diet Dr. Pepper 12 packs for $2.50 each (when you buy 4 with their in-ad coupon) and to my surprise - Diet Coke cases were priced at $5.99 each. Then I noticed bright yellow $2 peelies on some of them that could be used when you bought two. (For those of you too tired to do the math, that's like a $2.50 12 pk...) So, those of you that can't live without it - stock up, sisters! :)

OH - and Christina found Market Pantry fruit snack 10 pks at Target for 36 cents after you print their store coupon. You can do this from their website OR -rumor has it- from one of the kiosks. Seriously? Print on their paper and ink? You bet! I think I'm in such disbelief over it that I'll have to print my own to take so it's not a wasted trip, but I do hope that I am proven wrong! I'm going to try it out on Friday morning I think. I'll let you know what I find.
