New blogsite

I just found a new blogsite that I really like - http://www.moneywisemoms.com/. She posts deals, recipes and even funny stories about family life. Check it out.

Also, if you go and get the deals on Dole canned fruit at Winco go to Dole.com to print a couple of .50 cent coupons to make it an even better deal. You can also play a fun game and maybe win some prizes. ~Janay C

Great deals at Winco - Oct. 28th, '09

Before I went out of town I saw a great deal on Dole canned pears and peaches, and also Bush's canned kidney beans (which I use for chili). 3 weeks later I hoped they were still there, as the fruit was in the main "deals" aisle as you walk in. It wasn't there but at the end cap of the canned fruit aisle there were still a few cases left. Usually I freeze peaches but this year I didn't get to, so .88 cents a can is a good deal for a brand name. They also had a lot of fruit in each can unlike some of the generic canned fruit which I have found to be half-full in the past. So, not sure when the sale will end but there are still a few cases left, go and buy them before they are gone. The beans are Bush's and are .67 cents a can-a great deal-these are not the baked beans variety, just regular beans. They were in the bean aisle, they had regular and reduced-sodium. So I have a few cases for food storage now, yay! Also, avocados are in season and they were on sale and were big, I think I paid about .70 cents each. ~Janay C.

Kids eat free at Sweet Tomatoes Oct. 29-31st.

Kids eat free from Oct. 29-31st at Sweet Tomatoes if they are wearing a costume. This was verified through a Club Veg email I received, one free kid per paying adult. I think the kids price is for kids up to age 12, I know my 13 year old doesn't qualify for the kids price anymore-darn!

Also, if you sign up online for Club Veg you get deals like this (click on link below.) For 2 adult lunches w/ 2 beverages it cost me $12.67 the other day. Click on this link for the deal to print the coupon, or sign-up at the Soup Plantation website or at the store to get these emails sent directly to you. You can't use this coupon of course for the free kids deal, you just show up with your kids in costume for that. They ususally send me these coupons each month.
