Get 5$ + in Kellogg's Coupons for FREE

I saw this and quickly shared this with my dad who I have sucked into Extreme Couponing. I'm very proud of that.


Anyways, Kelloggs has coupon for their items that no one else has right now. So this is what I want you to do.

1. Go to Kelloggs.com and sign up for an account, and fill out the survey.

2. Then log into kelloggs.com  and print 2 of each coupon, basically go through the printing process twice.

Note: Kellogg's will only allow 2 of each coupon to printed per computer, no matter how may account you have. Trust me, I tried it and the limit was already reached on the second account.Then I went on a second computer and it worked. :D

Get an extra Redplum Book in the mail for FREE every week!

Wow! Redplum book for free!! My mother in law is so gracious to give me her  coupons, and then she tells me to check her Red Plum ad she gets in the mail. Sure enough! I find another redplum insert. More coupons! Then my next thought is how come I'm not getting this in the mail at my house? I don't know how, I was never on there list. I check the redplum website to see where I get my coupon books, apparently only in my newspaper for my address. I searched the website and signed up to be added to the list for free coupons! Then I signed up my mom for it too. In 5 or 6 weeks I will start receiving free coupons!

Here's how you can sign up for the Mailing list.

Then fill in your info, click add me to the list, and wait 5 to 6 weeks and you will start receiving inserts every week after.

I'm excited to receive mine, I will be patiently waiting too.

The C and H Sugar Deal that came and went!

This was on Memorial Day weekend when this happened. I was looking at the Special Safeway Sunday ad. There was a Safeway C and H Sugar coupon to make it the price of 2.50. My mouth dropped I had a coupon that was .55cents that would be doubled to a dollar that would make the 4lb bag of C and H sugar 1.50. It was a two deal that disappeared so fast on that Holiday Weekend I had no chance to tell you all.

I got to grab 4 bags of C and H sugar for 1.50 each.

Lesson to be learned here, pay attention to the ads, I just might not be able to tell you in time and you might miss out. I don't want that to happen to you! :D

How I got Listerine for 1dollar, and Little Swimmers for 2.99

I scan through the Walgreens every Sunday, sometimes more than once, because then I catch the real deal!
This sale is obviously is no longer going on. I just wanted to teach you to pay attention to the Walgreens ad.

Here is how I got Listerine for 1 dollar ,and Little Swimmers for 2.99.

Listerine

The Listerine I got was price at 4.99 - the 3 dollar off Walgreens coupon= 1.99- 1.00 manufacturer coupon = .99

I saved 4.00

Little Swimmers

Regular price 8.99. It was on sale for 6.99- the 2dollars off  Walgreens instant savings coupon= 4.99- 2.00 manufacturer coupon=  2.99

Total savings 6.00

Isn't this a great way for  you to pay attention to the Walgreens  ad.

To prep for walgreens savings, make sure you have the Ad, the Walgreens Coupon Book (its located near the front door next to the ads), and manufacturer coupons.

Happy Savings!

I spent 34.00 saved about 200 dollars at Fry's!

This the grocery trip I'm mostly proud of. I'm happy to say I'm a extreme couponer!! I would love to show you how I did it. I'm not sure I will show you all of my secrets, but I do get the Sunday Paper, and my Mother In Law gives me her coupons. I do print coupons off the internet, I also sign up for bunch of samples and get coupons from that.

Fresh and Easy Rules- so remember this! Spend 50 or more get 10dollars off Spend 30 or more get 3 dollars off Also remember the limits on the Safeway coupons Along with any limits on Fry's products. When there are limits you have to seperate orders if you get more than the limit.

This took about 3 day prep time for, include coupon cutting, printing, planning and calculating and scanning the ads. Now with this shopping experience note that Fry's is taking other grocery stores coupons. I happen to get a 10dollar coupon, and a 3 dollar coupon from Fresh and Easy. So added savings!

Alright let me get on with the show! :D This how my grocery list looks like, okay mostly I had to be more descriptive for you guys to understand.

NOTE: Fry's is doubling their coupons up to a 1.00 each.

Things have changed and my husband and are staying in our house. He is lined up for a new job.

I want to learn how to save 80 percent everytime, instead of the average 50% I hope Easter is a fun time of year for you.

Sorry I have been so busy

Sorry I disappeared for a month, life distracted me, and trying to make money distracted me. I currently rent the place I'm living at, and it could be foreclosed on anytime. My Landlord isn't paying the bills, at one point the electricity go shut off. Then after that there was a water billl shut off notice for the whole property not fun at all. My husband and I decided we needed to move at the end of our lease. Luckily that will be happening soon. I will try to post as much as stuff as I can but I will distracted. I've been looking for a place to move too. And I have been trying to make money. You all know how that goes.

Super Healthy Kids Plates DEAL!

Thanks to my friend Amy, those of you who want more of the Plates here is your chance to get FREE Shipping.

The SuperHealthykids  plates cost 4.99 each, and are well worth it.

Just go to SuperHealthykids.com  and use the code BEE .

While entering your payment information. You will get FREE Shipping not matter how many plates you buy. This so awesome.




This review of my experience with these plates: 

Healthy Kids Plate teaches kids that:

• 1/2  their plate should be filled with fruits and vegetables.
• 1/4 of their plate filled with protein 
• 1/4 of their plate filled with whole grains

Specs:

• Dishwasher safe
• Lead Free
• BPA Free
• 8inches
• Not easily broken :) Trust me, my daughter has dropped  it several times. It's a very durable plastic

This plate is sized for, and geared toward the ages 2-8. My daughter is 15months old  and I already started using the plate with her. I figure, why not start out early, I just used smaller portions in each section for her. Since obesity rate is so high and rising in children, this is a fun way to teach children to eat the healthy way. The cartoons make it easy  for a child to know where his/her Fruit and Veggies go on their plate, and  how much. This allows us as parents to focus on balance, instead of counting servings. Yay for being fun and healthy!!

What a great product!

Free Sample of Parents Choice Baby Formula

Homemade Ice Cream Sandwiches

 Okay I told you  there would be more to my whipped cream recipes. Here is the second one.

Homemade Ice Cream Sandwiches
By BusyMoneyBee www.busymoneybee.com

2 Boxes of Reduced Fat Graham Crackers 
Big Whopping amount of whipped cream

Tip: you will need a couple of cookie sheets and some room in your freezer.

Take each Graham Cracker and split them in half, and also split a few but not all in to quarters (The Quarter ones will make great finger ice cream sandwiches for toddlers). Then scoop a couple of spoonfuls of whipped cream onto graham crackers, then place graham cracker of similar size on top, creating a sandwich then place on cookie sheet then repeat until cookie sheet is full.  Then place cookie sheet in freezer for 4hours or until stiff (it may not be completely stiff, a little soft, as long as its not super squishy your good to eat it, or store it). Then place Sandwiches into plastic containers, and back into the freezer, or serve right away.

Tip: If you end up with 2 cookie sheets worth like I did. I would suggest freezing the first sheet for 2 hours, then placing the second sheet on top of the first cookie sheet in the freezer.

I hope you enjoy this, my toddler loves these! :D

Heavy whipping cream recipe: big whopping amount of whipped cream

Okay this all started with the fact I bought too much whipping cream for Christmas stuff that I was doing. Because I afraid if I didn't get a ton of it I might not ever see it again. Well if I didn't use all of it I was going waste it, I'm trying to save Money notch waste it so i would have to find ways utilize it. I think I procrastinated buy the time I used it , it was near the expiration date. Jan 20 . Uh oh. I hurried. I thought of a few things. Here is one. Whipped cream recipe...

 Big Whopping amount of Whipped Cream

By www.busymoneybee.com

2qts(8cups) of Heavy Whipping Cream
1 cup of Sugar
4 tsp of Vanilla Extract

Tip: Make sure you have 8quart bowl for this. Because this recipe creates 6 quarts of whipped cream.

Really simple pour 2quarts of Heavy whipping cream into the Large bowl whip with a handmixer until slight stiffening, then add the vanilla and the sugar, then whip with handmixer until peaks have formed.

Storage tips: Refrigerate for at most a 1-2days, it's best when fresh.

Or freeze for a very longtime, and thaw when ready to use.


Buy not wasting they Heavy Cream I saved myself from wasting 20 dollars, each Quart is 5 dollars. Phew! Wasting food equals wasting money, I try so hard not to do that.




Look for what I did with this amount of whipping cream in more posts to come. They are really fun and hard to miss.

I figure, why not start out early, I just used smaller portions in each section for her. Since obesity rate is so high and rising in children, this is a fun way to teach children to eat the healthy way. The cartoons make it easy  for a child to know where his/her Fruit and Veggies go on their plate, and  how much. This allows us as parents to focus on balance, instead of counting servings. Yay for being fun and healthy!!

What a great product!

That's why with the help of Amy, I'm giving away 5 plates that means 5 winners.

Ooey Gooey Brownies

I got this idea after having so much candy given to me by "Santa" and my in-laws. I'm currently trying to lose weight. The last thing I need is to eat all of this stuff. What did I do? I invented a version of brownies, that you should share with everyone.

Before it went into the Oven

Fresh out of the oven! Yummy gooeyness :)

Ooey Gooey Brownies

By BusyMoneyBee (www.busymoneybee.com)

1 Brownie Mix

10 Mini Snickers

1/2 cup Milk Chocolate Chips

10 of Caramels (cut in half making 20peices)

Preheat oven to 350degrees (this for 9X13 pan directions, so please check the Brownie box) Mix Brownies as directed. Pour into greased pan. Then add the mini-snicker by placing them randomly throughout the pan. The dot the half pieces of caramel evenly dotted across the pan. Then sprinkle chocolate chips across pan. Place in the oven for 24minutes. After thoroughly baked to the point where it passes the good old "toothpick test". Take out of the oven let cool for 5 minutes, then serve immediately while the caramel and snickers is still gooey.

Eat up!

Tip:  if you don't eat them all, in order to get that gooey effect again I suggest warm it up in a toaster oven, or microwave a piece for a few seconds to get that gooey effect.

  Enjoy!

Finding ways to save on Cell Phone costs

If you're like me, I have had people tell me when we had no money, I needed to get rid of my cell phone. The same cell phone number that I've had for 10 years. Well, sorry no can do. I need my phone. I do not have a house phone. My husband needs his cell phone for work, he delivers Pizzas for goodness sakes. In case his car brakes down he needs that phone. I need my phone at home here with me while he is working in case I need to reach him. I've got to find the best price for phone plans.

Note: We don't buy phones at our house, phones are FREE with the plan, that is only way for my family.


But here's where I will find the best plan for my family and I.

 MyRatePlan.com

 A website that helps us consumers make informed purchase decisions about household services. They say when purchasing plan always purchase 10-15% more minutes than you would usually use just in case, to help prevent overages. Also, to purchase and unlimited text messaging package, especially if you have teenagers. I'm no teenager, but I certainly do text a lot.  Since most Text Messaging Companies charge 25cents per text message when you go over your amount, it's definitely good to have Unlimited if you are type of person that texts a lot.

Of course for some people, there are alternatives to Cell Phones:

Skype.com  - You can do video calling, you can call also do regular phone calls on Skype, and it's FREE. Although you do have to microphone and camera to use it, but that's only a one time purchase.

Google Voice - This is a free phone internet service, and fairly easy to use with your contacts already being listed in your gmail account.

TracFone.com - This is great who don't use there phones a lot. No monthly bills, or credit check. It is a Prepaid minute service 10ct per minute,so 100minutes for 10$. Although from what I know Tracfone doesn't usually consist of really nice phones.

Another service that is FREE to use to help find you cheaper phone plans based on how many minutes and text messages you currently use is BillShrink

I hope this helps you figure out a way to make a more cost effective decision when it comes to choosing cell phone plans. This is certainly helping me determine my usage as well. :D
