**In order to get all of this stuff, I had to buy 2 things that I will not use: the Bayer meter and the hair color. I will donate these things or put them in my garage sale box, but I think it is worth it because I got a whole bunch of stuff that I will use! Who can argue with basically free laundry soap and softener??

Looking for a new recipe?

Tonight I tried a new recipe that I found on a blog called "Cook with Sara."

The recipe I tried is Cashew Chicken. Usually after I make something new my husband says "Next time add ....." or "It would be better if....." This time, he had nothing to add. This is an excellent recipe and I recommend you try it sometime!

CVS fun 8.16.09

All of this cost me $5!!!
10 boxes of tissues
4 packs of school paper
4 packs of pens
2 Xtra laundry detergent
1 Cascade
Fruitopia shampoo and conditioner
2 Physician Formula mascara
3 cans of tuna
30 gift bags (in packs of 10)
1 Listerine mouth wash
1 Loreal wrinkle cream
1 Loreal face wash
1 Blink tears

***California shoppers: Check the date on your Blink tears. I went to two stores today and they both had lots of expired boxes, and a few not expired. Bring expired products to the register and ask for $2 ECB which is part of a California lawsuit against CVS.

Click here to buy $25 restaurant gift certificates for $2. Enter discount code PORTION at checkout. This offer ends on August 13, 2009.
I've written about this many times before because I love these certificates!!
Recently my husband and I have had a couple of date nights that cost us less than $40!! We use one of these certificates for dinner (we went to Iron Chef one night and Cask and Cleaver on another). Our dinner costs $25-$30. Then we go to the movies at the Terra Vista 6 in Rancho Cucamonga. Night movies are $6.50 per person, so $25 for dinner and $13 for a movie= $38.
If we had paid full price for dinner our date night would be over $60. I love restaurant.com!!!
