Our recent trip to target yielded many great clothes finds, the outfits here shorts, tank top and necklace and flip flops that are not pictured all for less than $5 each!!

I was sent another great product to test from Ebeanstalk.com now at first I wasnt really sure my kids would enjoy the Connecta Straws, but let me tell you we were all plesantly surprised! Even my husband and I got into the fun, we are planning on purchasing additional sets for our daughters birthday next month. The possibilites are endless of what you can make with these! My oldest daughter has a VERY short attentnion span and its hard to get her to focus on any one thing for an extended period of time, watching her play with these really blew my mind at how calm and focused she was, I also researched prices and before even using the product thought WOW that is alot to pay for some straws :-) but after using them my mind has been changed and I would have no problem paying up to $20 for one set. These get an A++ in my book would definetly recommend. Sometimes itÕs hard to pick out the best toys for your children. Ebeanstalk helps you find the perfect one. You can search for baby toys

Looking for toys for your kids can be overwhelming! Ebeanstalk is a toy website that knows just how many toys are out there for you to sort through. They have a team of moms that have picked out the best of the best to provide great baby toys , toys for 1 year olds , toys for 2 year olds , and toys for all other ages! Ebeanstalk also has a panel of child experts that have matched each toy to the specific age of your child, so you know that your child is getting the most out of playtime! This time I spent my time browsing toys for Baby, 1 and 2 year olds, as I have children that fit in all of those categories. Toys for Baby, Again I have a newborn son so I can relate to this group of toys as well. Now obviously a newborn doesnt need all these sorts of toys starting out I do like the selection but the price on some of these toys is too much when they will outgrow them about as fast as they outgrow their clothes the first year Toys for 1 year olds, I like this the most because they carr

Since the first of June I have been slacking when it comes to my couponing, I have run out of good coupons and havent had much time to earn the gift cards Im used to using with my coupons, being a mother of 4 is tough of course I knew this when I signed up to be mama! On June 6, 2010 we welcomed our 4th child our first son Steven William Hawkins! he keeps me busy but not as busy as his older sisters! my kids are my entire motivation for doing what I do, I was upset as I made a trip to target yesterday with few coupons and no gifcards and ended up spending $113 on things that I normally have coupons for and giftcards to offset the costs BOY was I upset! Now that is definetly Frugal when you get upset for having to pay full price for household items, shampoo, paper towels, diapers , wipes, baby shampoo, baby onesies and socks etc and I have vowed from now on Im stepping up my game so that will never happen again way too much out of pocket cost.

I recently had the pleasure of finding this website through a pacifier test. I was sent two pacifiers to test on my baby and also given a very nice age appropriate toy for him as well. After using the pacifier and taking the followup survey I decided to check out their website more closely, Im so glad I did! They carry many of the toys that I look for, Melissa and Doug Toddler Toys http://www.ebeanstalk.com/brand/Melissa-and-Doug.html are a favorite in our house! The wooden puzzles my girls love and they have many, as well as some of the art supplies. What I like most about Ebeanstalk.com is that you can get all these great brands in one place! No going to each individual site and paying shipping over and over to get what you want when you can get it all right here and pay shipping once. They have done a very good job of breaking down by brand ( manufacturer ) and Age and you can also create a wish list! Moving further into it I discovered the Perfect Child Learning Toys http://www.ebe

Didnt do as well as I had hoped on this trip trying I cant remember the last time I spent this much out of pocket money. before coupons total 155.47 after coupons 77.34 had a giftcard for 10.83 cash out of pocket 67.30

on this trip I got 2 packs of huggies, 2 packs of easy ups, 1 box of huggies 1 bottle flintstone vitamins and 1 OFF citronella candle. total before coupons was 100.64 after coupons I paid 11.58 out of pocket

I have alot of people ask me how do you get all your freebies and coupons? I wouldnt be able to do it without FST ( www.freestufftimes.com ) this site is awesome! I have gotten so many good freebies and met some wonderful people here, not just freebies but coupons I trade coupons for things I need most such as diapers and pullups and wipes. Now I wouldnt be able to do it alone with coupons but I have found that complimenting companies on their products will sometimes get you a free coupon for that product, I too have had to complain about things mainly diapers, leaks, tearing of the tabs etc, that too will earn me high dollar off coupons. Again, I wouldnt be able to do this on coupons alone, I also do surveys and product tests to earn gift cards ( mainly Target ) Love Target they have great deals on everything I need AND they sometimes offer free giftcards for purchasing certain items IE Diapers! those are wonderful! I also do product testing that doesnt involve any monetary gain just
