Thrifty Tips for May 3, 2012

WEBSITE LOVE


Did you know that on average, Americans throw out 25 percent of the food they bring home?  This adds up to roughly $2,200 per year!  That is crazy.  I hate to say it, but I am definitely guilty.  I do try very hard to incorporate leftovers into our meal planning.  Still I miss the mark.  This caused me to look for a good site to help me with the leftover question.  I think you're going to like it.  Check out Love  Food Hate Waste.  This is a website from England so you will find things like haggis in it, but it is very, very cool and informative on serving sizes and recipes that you can make using your leftovers.

While supplies last, Walmart has free samples of Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine.

I love free samples of perfume.  It is always nice to try before you buy, and lately so many samples have actually been in those cute little spray bottles....love it!!!!!  While supplies last, sign up for your free sample of  Calvin Klein's Beauty.  I cannot guarantee it will be in a cute little bottle, but a sample is a sample, and Calvin Klein has never disappointed me.  :)

Do your kids love stuffed animals?  Of course they do.  If you are in the Phoenix area (specifically East Thomas  Road, you might want to take advantage of the Stuffington Bear Factory free daily drop-in tour which is on Mondays through Saturdays at 1:00 pm.  This is a little mini tour of about 15 minutes.  I would have loved this as a kid.  If you have a party of ten or larger, you can sign up the group for a longer more in depth tour.  All the details are at the Stuffington Bear Factory website.  Their phone number is listed there too so you can also call for details.
