TIPS FROM STACEY :o)
CLIP YOUR COUPONS
- -It's amazing how much money you can save just by clipping your coupons that come in your paper on the week-end. Our food store, Martin's, doubles coupons up to .50 and if the coupon is .75 they still give you $1.00 off. If you have a coupon for each item in your basket - just think of all the money you'll save!!! Give it a try!
CLOTHES SHOPPING TIPS
- -When buying clothes for your kids - always shop a season behind. When summer clothes hit their lowest prices that is the time to buy summer clothes for the next year. Your kids get an AWESOME wardrobe for around 75% off or more.
- -My kids love to shop at the high priced stores like - Abercrombie, Abercrombie & Fitch, and Hollister. We always walk in and hit the back room with clearances first thing before looking at anything else! We save LOTS of money this way!
MOVIE THEATRE TIP
- -We go to Regal Theatre. They are sooo AWESOME there!!! We buy the popcorn and drink that's refillable. They give us extra bags and cups so we can share. When there are lots of kids with you, it sure does save you LOTS of money and everyone gets to enjoy a snack while watching the movie together! P.S. If your theatre doesn't provide bags and cups for you, take some along in your purse! If your purse is big like mine, they'll fit with no problem! hee hee

- I'm Erin Chase.
I have a little problem. I can not make a meal that costs more than $5. Even if I try. My brain will no longer allow it. It's filled with prices on my favorite products. It races through recipes and numbers as I go through the grocery store, wondering 'can I pull off that meal for less than $5? Is that price on those chicken breasts too high to swing a $5 meal?' It's unnatural, really. But, my pocketbook thanks me!

STRETCHING A BUCK
LOVE THIS SITE SOOO MUCH
- STRETCHING A BUCK LINK
- AMOUT ME: I am a SAHM located in Columbus, OH. Prior to becoming a stay at home mom, I was busy climbing the corporate ladder as an IT Professional. However, God had other plans for me, and when I gave birth to my daughter, the call to stay at home became obnoxiously LOUD. After 6 months of working and obsessing, I decided to listen to the call and said goodbye to life as I knew it. I am finally coming into my own as a modern day "housewife" (even though I detest that label) and have even found a way to amuse myself via this blog! Frugality is still a fairly new concept to me, but I am enjoying my quest to stretch every buck that we bring home. I firmly believe that it is possible to live well on less, and this blog is my way of sharing some of the tips I have learned about this along the way. I post weekly sale and coupon match ups for Kroger, Giant Eagle, Meijer and Target along with a host of other money saving information; all in an effort to save you both time and money. Thanks for visiting! If you have any suggestions or questions, please feel free to email me at: stretchingabuck at gmail dot com. I would love to hear from you!

THE HAPPY HOUSEWIFE
AWESOME SITE :o)
- THE HAPPY HOUSEWIFE LINK
- I am a God fearing, military wife, stay at home (schooling) mom, to six silly kids ages 2 to 14. I love to read, sew, bake, recycle, and bargain hunt.
Three years ago my husband was injured during a deployment. We spent the next two years moving and going from doctor to doctor in hope of restoring his (and our) lives back to normal. We thought his military career of 19 years might be over. In fact, even the doctors gave us little hope for a full recovery. Thankfully, I believe in miracles and am happy to report that since the summer of 2008 he has been completely healed. After months of therapy, a variety of medications, and lots of prayer he is once again able to drive, read, work, and live a normal life. Well, as normal as life can be living in a houseful of kids. We are excitedly expecting baby #7 in April of 2009.
In the summer of 2007 we heard about a man named Dave Ramsey. We quickly read his books and became committed to living a debt free life. On October 26, 2007 we called the Dave Ramsey show and screamed, "We're Debt Free!" on the radio. It was a milestone moment in our lives. We continue to live a debt free life and hope to help others do the same.
Feel free to read along about the story of my life, ups and downs, my quest to save more money, eat healthier, get organized, and raise my kids to the Glory of God.

TARGET
MY FAVORITE PLACE TO SAVE MONEY!!!
- TARGET LINK
- Believe it or not, I save sooo much money at Target on their seasonal clearance items. I love to buy gifts for the kids on Our Prayer List and buying clearance items makes this possible for me to do. My favorite time to hit their sales is Christmas, Easter, July 4th, School Supplies, & Summer Items. These sections go on clearance for up to 90% off. I just buy the stuff and store it until the next holiday in Rubbermaid containers & WOW do I save a LOT OF MONEY! We buy the notebooks that are $1.00 for 10 for $.10 when they go on 90% clearance. We send these to our Missionaries overseas, and also use them at Christmas to give children school supplies that need them.

A. C. MOORE

I love A. C. Moore because they have such an AWESOME variety of Scrapbooking supplies and soo much more. I am on their mailing list and each week I get a coupon and a brochure in my inbox from them. They are always 40% off on one regular priced item. I use these coupons for the things that I want really badly, but don't want to pay full price for. From time to time they have specials and send 50% off coupons out, too!
- A. C. MOORE

- OLLIES BARGAIN OUTLET
- About Ollies...
Ollie's Bargain Outlet is the Mid-Atlantic's largest retailer of closeout, surplus and salvage merchandise. Our 48 "semi-lovely" stores sell merchandise of all descriptions and some beyond description.
You'll find lots of famous brand name goods in every department, like housewares from Rubbermaid, Mirro, Ekco and Anchor Hocking. Toys and sporting goods from Igloo, Coleman and Mattel.
Ollie's buyers scour the world looking for closeouts, overruns, package changes, manufacturer refurbs and irregulars.
Much of the merchandise comes direct from the finest manufacturers in the country and abroad. For instance, if a manufacturer makes too much of an item, or changes their packaging - Ollie's will buy the discontinued or overstock items. So you will always find famous brand name products at Ollie's . . . but it could be last year's color or pattern that traditional retailers won't sell.
We also work with insurance companies to buy salvage merchandise. If a store in your neighborhood has a fire, Ollie's may purchase the inventory and put it in our stores at drastically reduced prices! Yes there may be a little smoke on the stuff, but it'll be so cheap that you won't mind!
Ollie's has also liquidated major retail centers, working very closely with financial institutions. When companies liquidate, the bank that financed will often dispose of the remaining inventory and turn it in to cash. Ollie's brings the goods back to our stores, or runs the liquidation on site.
Folks, everything you buy at Ollie's is covered by our 30-day No Hard Time Guarantee. If for any reason you are not completely satisfied with your purchase - return it within 30 days for a full refund (with sales receipt).

WHY IS JOHN316 MY USER NAME?
- "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him, should not perish, but have everlasting life."
WOW - this verse says it all! God was willing to give His only Son to die on the cross for our sins, so that each of us would have the opportunity to accept Jesus into our hearts & accept the free gift of salvation. We just have to ask Him! If we ask Him & believe with all our hearts - He promises us a home with Him in heaven when we die. It's so easy that even a child can accept this gift. If you're reading this & accept Jesus into your heart - please sign my guestbook & let me know!
God Bless You!
Much Love - Stacey
