***A note: Even though the HT buy one get one free items actually each ring up half price, many HT's in my area have a policy that you can only use one coupon per "bogo." In other words, if something is bogo and I have two coupons (to use one on each item), they are still not allowing this. This may be what Faye Prosser calls "your mileage may vary."***

Buy any combination of 10 items on any of the three "BOXTOPS" ads in this week's flyer and save an additional $4.00 instantly!!

Sep. 9, 2008 - Great Dinner Deal at Lowes Foods!

Posted in Saving Money

If you are even reading this, then bless you! I fell out of blogging over the summer. I began keeping my 3 month old (now almost 5 month old!) nephew during the day a couple of months ago. A week after I began keeping him, we got the cutest little beagle puppy in the world! And we are homeschooling. Need I say more? I hope to post deals more regularly now that I am halfway back to some routine.

I wanted to let y'all know about a deal that I am not sure is just for my local Lowes Foods stores, so you may want to check your area to see if this is being offered to you as well. The offer is only good through today.

Lowes Foods if offering a "Meal Deal." For $6.99, you get:
*a rotiserrie chicken from the deli
*a 12-ct. pack of dinner rolls from the bakery
*a 2-liter Lowes Foods soft drink (for those not from around here, that would be a "soda" or "pop" or "Coke" to you!)
*2 cans of 14.5 oz. Lowes Foods cut green beans or 15.25 oz. Lowes Foods whole kernel corn (mix or match-your choice!)

Not bad for a quick little dinner that you don't have to prepare!

Aug. 10, 2008 - With a Heavy Heart

It has been quite awhile since I have had time to update this blog. But I wanted to come on here this morning and post some information for those of you that have been praying for Dan & Casey Chappell and the baby they were expecting.

Last night, Asher Daniel Chappell was born and took several breaths on his own before the Lord chose to take him home. It is with a heavy heart that I write that Asher is now with his Heavenly Father. Please continue to pray for Dan & Casey--not only does Casey have a c-section to recover from, but also they have broken hearts that need to be healed and comforted. Please visit their blog HERE. Please leave them a comment if you feel led. They have enjoyed the support and encouragement they have received from friends as well as strangers.

Thank you!

What's the catch? ALL you have to do is dress up like a cow!

"Cow Appreciation Day is a fun excuse for parents and children to work together to create cow costumes, decorate cow masks and enjoy free meals together at any of the nearly 1,400 Chick-fil-A restaurants."

Read more about Cow Appreciation Day here.

My sister, in the past, has taken one or both of her boys dressed as cows...easy to do when they are little and have an old Halloween costume in the closet!

If any of you or your kids participate, I would love to see photos! If you have a blog, why don't you create a post about it and then leave me a comment to check your site?

Enjoy your savings!
