Cuttin' Up Wednesday: School's OUT!!

We are 2 Days away from SUMMER Vacation (for those with children in school).  Summer vacation has a lot of perks for the kiddies, but not so much for the working parents.  Does your job give summer vacations?  Probably not, unless you are school teacher (not teaching summer classes).  Well, I know my job doesn't :(  I'm sure the majority of us are not as fortunate which means the cost of daycare or a summer program is going to increase for the next 3 months. 

To save a little extra money in other areas and balance out the increasing costs for the summer, try the following:

• Use coupons when you go grocery shopping or shopping of any kind
• Use coupons when dining out. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, & dessert
• Visit Groupon or Living Social for deals on activities for the family or for yourself or for vacation. 
• Check out your city's local website for FREE events to attend

"Spot" Light: Clearance, Clearance, Clearance!

On Saturday as I was shopping with my sisters (In-law) at Target,  I started to browse the inner endcaps where they have their clearance items.  Guess what I found.......Shea Moisture Lotion and Body Wash minis, Olive & Green Tea with Avocado 3.2 oz. The regular price was $3.99, BUT they were on clearance for $1.18, a 70% savings.  We ended up buying them all!!  

They are just the right size for traveling or for those on-the-go. 

In case you were wondering,  the scent is GREAT, very light and refreshing.
