Leave your online cart full but never check out and get FREE stuff!

I once read a tip that if you are online shopping to leave your shopping cart and you will most likely get an email from the retailer with a coupon to get you to "come back to their store". I never tried it but it works! I got an email that books were on sale (I looooove buying motivational books that I don't have the time to read but have in my library should the day arrive I do) so I jumped on it. I thought I checked out, never got a confirmation and then I got this lovely email...

so back to my cart I go and sure enough it's all in there and now it's $10 cheaper!!! Most of my mistakes COST me money but this one saved me some! Good to know it does work to abandon your shopping cart!

Valentine's School Party a Hit!

I'm a homeroom mom so Valentine's party is a BIG DEAL. Thanks to Pinterest it was a lot of fun planning this year... why oh why did I stay away from you so long Pinterest, I love you!

I saw a really great valentine in family fun last year where it looked like a gigantic lollipop and I recreated it. I kept the 6' PVC pipe "just because" and thought lets try it again this year! Now I think it will be fun to make it a tradition and see her "outgrow" the stick over the years!

I found a cute necklace craft on pinterest and did blues/greens for boys and pinks/reds/orange for girls.  

 Pin the lips on Mrs. Valentine was fun but most everyone cheated, ha ha!

Guess how many hearts fill the heart

Heart-o-stack was a hit and hard!

They had to suck the hearts out of the bowl for 1min.

Just ordered my Nick's Stcks!

I just placed my order for 50 turkey & 50 beef sticks and I can't wait til they get here!!! Perfect for grab-n-go snacks this summer at the pool and HersheyPark! I had gotten a FREE SAMPLE of each and barely got a taste before my daughter scarfed them down!!! So here is a new reason I sell thirty-one to pay for my organic meat sticks!!!!
