This blog is to showcase steals, thrills, & mega deals in the shopping world. By this, I don't mean snatching up a Coach bag off E-bay for a couple hundred bones...I mean snatching up EVERYDAY needs (& sometimes wants) for pennies on the dollar...ie- children's socks for $1, cream of mushroom soup for 50 cents, Old Navy skirts for 99 cents...got it? Feel free to pass any of YOUR fab finds my way & I'll post them, giving credit to you of course. Happy Savings!

PEDEGG...ever heard of it?

Who says eggs represent Easter? This year they can be the hottest Christmas gift!
Apparently the PEDEGG is the all the new rage.


Lindsay Y said she found a great deal on the pedegg & free refills at Walgreens...here's what she said:


"PedEgg at Walgreen's for $10 and you get a 3-pack of refill files for free ($10 value)! They didn't have signs up about it, but a woman came up to me in line and handed me the refills and said, "I hear these are free this week if you buy the PedEgg."


Let me know if it's as fabulous as it sounds!


Thanks, L.Y.!

Do you cook with MSG?

Don't we all?

As much as we hate to admit it, chicken broth is a staple in a Mormon casserole home.

2 for 88 cents at Longs (at least at the one on Homestead in Santa Clara near Safeway).



offer goes until 12/13

Hot lady, coming through.

My friend Melanie, who is always very fashionable I might add, sent me this one:

Jeans at Express: 2 for the price of 1


She said they are usually $70, but are now $29.95. HOWEVER, they are not being advertised, nor is there a sign near the jeans, so DOUBLE-CHECK with the cashier before you go a-swipin' the ol plastic.

Thanks, Mel!

Now You Can Have Your Cake & Eat it too!

Thanks to my friend Abby, I am proud to announce this:


Betty Crocker cake mixes at Safeway for 89 cents.


2 words: FOOD STORAGE. Even if you have no eggs to mix, or no heat to cook with, you can always survive on dry packaged cake mix; at least that's the belief I subscribe to.


STOCK UP!


Thanks, A!
