Passport to Adventure Prgram for Kids

.

I have mentioned this in the past but wanted to mention it again since it's a great activity for your kids!

REI’s Passport to Adventure program teaches kids how rewarding it is to spend time outside!

How to participate:

1. Fill out the adventure journal - It is great to get your child to really pay attention to different aspects of the outdoors and keep track of their adventures (makes it easy to answer "what did you do this summer?" ha,ha)

2. Use the map to find family friendly places to bike and hike.

3. Tell REI about each finished adventure with the tear off post cards in the journal or certificate and get prizes back (binoculars or magnifying glass and more)!

All information is online and in REI stores. *For more ideas, check out the Bonus Activities while you're on REI's website.

Thanks Sarah!

Target: Scrubbing Bubbles Money Maker

.

WOW! This is a $5.50 moneymaker scenario for Scrubbing Bubbles Toilet Cleaning Gel and Fresh Brush products! To make this work, you’ll need to buy 6 items, which will require you to have access to print from two computers.
Buy 3 Scrubbing Bubbles Gel $2.50 each (price match with Walgreens ad)
Buy 3 Scrubbing Bubbles Brushes or Refills (max value $7.00)

- Use (3) Free Scrubbing Bubbles Fresh Brush Starter or Refill (max value $7), when you buy Toilet Cleaning Gel – (coupons.com)
- Use (3) $1.00/1 – Scrubbing Bubbles Toilet Cleaning Gel – (rightathome.com)
- Use “Free $5.00 Target Gift Card, WYB 3 Scrubbing Bubbles Products, Target Q in 5/9 SS
- OOP = $4.50,
- Receive $5.00 Target Gift Card
= $.50 Moneymaker!

Submit for $5 Rebate from SC Johnson = $5.50 Moneymaker!

Suggestion for purchasing 6 items and only use 1 Target coupon is because according to Target Price Match Policy, you cannot price match AND use a Target coupon on the same item. This way, you’re price matching the toilet gels using the Walgreen ad and you’re using the Target coupon on the Fresh Brush products.


Thanks Ginger!

Get Answers to your BPA's Questions

My new friend, Serena, and Press Secretary for Natural Resources Defense Council sent over some information on a new study on BPA's that should not be missed. This new study found high levels of BPA in 9 out of 10 food cans tested. You can read the report and press release here.

You may also want to read NRDC's Scientist Sarah Janssen's blog on the findings of this new report: "How much BPA is in your food? More than was previously thought..." .

Serena and Dr. Janssen have offered to answer any questions you may have on the study. Since this post will be going out to multiple blogs on the City Mommy network, it will be easier to keep track of the questions with the following form rather than a post comment. Simply type your question and I will forward all of them on to Dr. Janssen via
Serena on May 31st, 2010. I will then post her responses the following week for you at My Atlanta Mommy and my FB Like page. (which is reserved for posts like this, parenting tips, healthy living tips, and more similar topics :-)


Thanks Sheryl!

Stockpiling 101



Stockpiling

We get lots of questions on stockpiling so Shana is sharing how she does it.

In the last 3 months I have stayed on a $40 budget for household and grocery items for my family of 4 (plus 2 dogs and a cat). In addition to that I have been able to stock pile the following items enough for 2 years. As of April 1st I began donating any of the following items I was able to get for free with coupons :

2 year supply of:

Toothpaste-adult and kids,Floss,Cover Girl foundation,Cover Girl powder,Cover girl blush,Mascare (1 year),Shampoo,Conditioner,Body gel,Hairspray,Mousse,Feminine Hygiene products all types,Deodorant for me,Deodorant for husband,Room deodorizer,Razors,Liquid hand soap,Bar soap,Laundry Detergent (1 year)Dryer sheets,Stain Release tablets,Dish scrub pads,Dish Detergent,Dishwasher tablets,Tin foil (1 year)


Most of the above items I only paid TAX on them. When you see us post a coupon that will get you an item free PRINT IT IMMEDIATELY!!


Questions I get the most:


What kind of food do you eat for $40 a week? First I want to say I am not going to make us stay on such a strict budget of $40 I just wanted to see if it was possible! I was amazed that it was!! We eat big breakfast, pancakes (home-made) and cereal, sandwiches for lunch, and mostly chicken and turkey, pasta and veggies for dinner. It sounds crazy but it is 100% possible to make a low and tight budget number fit your family.


This is how it basically broke down for us:

$5 for Milk (2 different kinds)

O.J./coffee $1.50 (used Tropicana Reward coupons stacked with store coupons, and great coffee deals with gift cards etc for Dunkin Donuts)

$10: for Fruit

$15 for meat found coupons for pork tenderloin (buy managers special at Kroger use that night) chicken coupons

$8.50 remainder left to spend on: cereal, canned food, frozen food, snack food etc.and tax on my free stockpile items


The following are key ideas to make it work:


  • Meal Plan at least a week out if not the whole month.
  • Get your whole family involved
  • Eat Fruits and Veggies that are in season and on special price.
  • Get creative, if you are going to have overage (because of razors grab some milk, or veggies)
  • Shop at different places and have a written plan out of where you find those key items.


Where do you store all your stuff? First I want to say that it really does not take up much space to stack up 24 tubes of toothpaste. I try and keep all similar items together utilize bathroom cabinet space. I also use old wipe boxes and label the outside razors, floss, soap etc. store these in the closet. I keep a note card with the number of items written in pencil and as I use one I change the number.


How much do you use of a product? It will be impossible to stockpile a year's supply unless you realize how much you use of a product. You might be surprised, how much you really use of some products. I write the date (with a permanent marker) on the back of the product for dish detergent etc. especially when I try a new one. I discovered we were using FAR TOO many trash bags, so I started placing plastic bag on my pantry door (Target, Walmart, etc) and we use those for stinky trash and take it right out. In a nutshell track what you use and try to cut back where you can.
