At the risk of turning this into a bargain-blog, I'm sharing another really good deal. Here are some nifty game bargains at Target until tomorrow (Sat. 11/7)!
Target is running a Buy-2-Get-1-Free sale on Wii games ($49.99 and less) and many are already on sale as low as $14.99. There's also a '$10 off 2' games coupon from their toy catalog or online HERE, making this a "s-wii-t" deal!! You can get 3 games for as little as $20!
You can also score Connect 4 for FREE! Target has the games for $10. Print a $5 manufacturer (Hasbro) coupon HERE and you can combine it with a $5 Target coupon HERE. That's right ... FREE! Look for the boxes specially marked with a coupon for a FREE Dominoes pizza as well.
Enjoy ... and I'll cool it on the deal posting. If you're interested in finding out about bargains like this and more, subscribe to one (or more) of these blogs:

Sweet Deals
I've become a bit of a coupon/bargain geek recently. Its almost like a hobby to see just how good a deal I can get. :)
So, here are a couple deals that I thought were pretty sweet:
Seventh Generation Chlorine Free Diapers - http://www.moneysavingmom.com/money_saving_mom/2009/10/amazoncom-seventh-generation-diapers-or-training-pants-for-585-per-package.html
And, if you have a little girl into castles (and, really, what little girl isn't?), this is a GREAT deal:
http://www.dealseekingmom.com/playskool-dream-town-sweet-lily-castle-with-dress-up-73-off/
You can make these deals even better if you're earning/saving Amazon gift cards through Swagbucks! That's the easiest free money I've found!

Money, money, money ...
One of the things that I've spent a good deal of time on recently, but haven't blogged about is money. Specifically, being a better steward of it. Saving it. Living more simply. More frugally.
I've been working at saving money where I can - mainly by not spending as much (go figure!) and by saving on groceries. I've been amazed at how easily I've been able to use coupons, sales, CVS and a few blogs (a couple of which are listed on the right side of my blog) to cut our grocery bill from $200 per week to about $140 per week. Those of you who know me, know I buy a lot of organic and gluten/wheat free stuff. So, I've started buying fresh goat's milk from the farm and organic/sustainably produced produce from the farmer's market. It is more time consuming. And, I've had to give up some things to make time for it. But, I wasn't willing to sacrifice the quality of food for my family just to spend less money on groceries.
"They" always say that time is money and it is true. You are going to spend one or the other!
I've gone back to making my own yogurt (with my farm-fresh milk, of course!), which I haven't done in years! I'd forgotten how EASY and how much healthier it is!
And, I have a few other goals to tackle in the coming months:
1)Bake and cook from scratch, using soaked or sprouted grains as much as possible and grinding my own flours! My goal is to be able to make all of our baked goods homemade!
2)Make our own cereals, condiments, snack bars, etc
3)Learn canning (I'm starting this week with some peach salsa using the peaches and cilantro we picked up at the farmer's market today) & hope to move on to freezer jam and then to veggies!
4)Making more homemade/handmade gifts ... look out, family! :)
5) Plant a garden and grow some vegetables and herbs
6)Learn to sew and
7)Make our own {natural} household cleaners, soaps, etc.
I still have some half-finished furniture painting projects around here - most noteably, my dining room! So, that's first!!
I'll post some pictures along the way ... I'm sure this will be quite the adventure!

Free & Fun!
It doesn't get any better than that, does it?
Here's a great idea for some summer fun that can also earn your kiddos (age 5-12) FREE binoculars! Anything that gets kids OUTSIDE more is good - and you can't beat this deal from REI.
They even provide you with a journal and a map of locations for hiking, biking, etc near you!
