I wouldn’t leave you guys in the dark… today through Sunday, Nov. 8th, for every $50 you spend at Safeway, get $10 Kohls cash to spend in the following weeks. {This includes northern California stores, Seattle and Portland.} I just stocked up on flour {2/$3}, sugar (2/$3}, TP {24 rolls/$10}, and other basics to get $40 in free Kohls cash. Oh, and if you hate Kohls, you just send those little slips of paper my way… they have great baby stuff! Here’s the fineprint: *Exclusions apply: Liquor, Tobacco, U.S. Postage Stamps, Fuel Purchases, Fluid Milk, Bus/Commuter Passes, Fishing/Game Licenses, Ski [...]

It might be time to make the switch to cloth napkins. I don’t use an inordinate amount of paper towels per se, but it would be so much cheaper/festive/better for the environment to be using cloth napkins. Don’t you agree?

I finally made it to the Alameda Flea Market {California}. I’ve known about Alameda for years, but haven’t gone, because I have little self-control when it comes to flea markets. While I’m there, I can’t help but think what things I can sell that I already have to make room for more new treasures. Guilty! So, I went with a purpose: small items for the baby room. And though I was drawn to several sets of chairs and tables that I didn’t need, I was able to stay focused {within reason} and found some great deals. 2′ x 2′ salvaged [...]
