15% off and FREE SHIPPING

The Children's Place has two codes out for you to use when ordering online. SPRING22A will get you 15% off your order and FSFEB2010 will get you free shipping with no minimum. They have their monster sale going on right now with many things as low as $2.99 but a lot of that is already out of stock and doesn't show up out of stock until you try to add it to your cart. Have fun shopping!

Nursing Covers for $16.50

Need a nursing cover for yourself or a baby shower gift? Mamabargains has a cute one on sale for just $16.50. There are only 2 choices to pick from but they cover a neutral or a girly one. As a mom who tried and tried and tried to nurse these are much better than the cheapo ones for not much more money.

Do you have a toddler in the house?

Do you have a toddler in the house? If so then here is the deal for you. Beechnut is offering a free Let's Grow Toddler Welcome Kit when you sign up for their newsletter. These kits usually come with some high value coupons or free coupons. Another great way to stretch you r food budget.

Thanks Common Sense with Money!

A Toy Story deal and a trip to the movies!

Do you LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, Toy Story like we do? I just watched Toy Story 2 for the first time a couple weeks ago and it is so cute! and my little ones loved it. I haven't seen Toy Story 1 yet and I can't wait to take the boys to see Toy Story 3.

So we have been looking into buying the movies and WOW they are expensive! $50.00 at Amazon and only $21 off Ebay if you want your movie from China which may or may not play on your player and may or may not be an authentic DVD.

So I found from another blog ( I am so sorry that I can not remember who, I have been searching and will continue to search to give credit to whom credit is due) that Amazon is having a preorder special. If you order BOTH Toy Story 1 and Toy Story 2 you get $10.00 off. PLUS each movie will come with a ticket to see Toy Story 3 in the theaters. Those are an $8.50ish value each right there.

So go to Amazon and you will see the Toy Story Dvd Blu Ray combo but DO NOT CLICK THAT ONE! Go down the page past the check out related media video box to the Best Value. It says buy both for $39.98. That's the one you want.

Right above the check out special media box there is a box that says special offer and that is where the detail are about the free movie tickets.

Free Thriving Family magazine for 6 months

Ooh I forgot to tell you about this free magazine I found last week after the Superbowl. I was over at the Focus on the Family website checking out the story behind the Superbowl ad and saw that they had an offer for 6 months of their magazine for free. I signed up and meant to blog about it and forgot. It's still available though so head on over to the site and look down at the bottom for the green button in the middle.

Valentine's Day craft

Here is a super cute, really last minute craft idea with one of my favorite Bible verses. You could adapt this to fit your needs.

Kingdom First Mom has this over at her site and when I saw it I knew I just had to do it! Now if only I had seen it before I went to the store today. Oh well I will just have to be a little more creative.

She uses a small box, some crafty stamps, address labels, and Hershey Nuggets mini candy bars.

She then printed off the verses from 1 Corinthians 13:4-8. You could use any old mushy, funny, love poems you like.

Panda Express coupon
