5.7.15 - My Unbelievable Huggies Deal at Target

Less than six weeks til baby and I'm still working on my diaper stockpile and scoring great deals. But today, I scored my greatest deal yet...so good, it's almost unbelievable! This deal totally just made my week and although you may not be able to get your OOP as low as mine (since I started out with two gift cards in hand), I'll show you how I did my deal exactly and you can still score a great deal even without the gift cards at the starting line...

Fab: DIY Pallet Coffee Table

Long ago...on one of my many Pinterest cram sessions, I discovered the frugally fabulous creation that is....the pallet coffee table! Here are my fav inspirations...#1...#2...#3.   I have been wanting to create one for our living room ever since then and promised myself I would once the weather warmed up....but at 7 months pregnant, I needed a little help, *insert husband here* :-) So with a little coercion...bit by bit...I managed to get...

3.31.15 - Did You Know That You Could Possibly Score a Free or Reduced Priced Breast Pump Through Your Insurance!?

Well it's true! And the best part is it's the easiest thing you could possibly do. I kid you not. I found out about this perk directly through my insurance program. However, I was a little skeptical after doing a little 'google research' which turned up a lot of frustrating stories of having to jump through hoops to get it or not being able to find a vendor but from my personal experience, I found the complete opposite to be true. The whole process,...

Especially the 15% off Burlington Baby Depot coupons which I might have been a little too excited about lol #DontJudgeMe :) Anyways, here's a look inside my bag... Hopefully you got the chance to stop by and...

3.6.15 - Are you using Walmart Savings Catcher yet!?

Ok, let me start off by saying that since becoming a “frugalist” I haven’t much shopped at Walmart for the past few years and not just because of the crowds but mostly because they never had any type of rewards program, store coupons, or discount program that allowed them to compete (in my book) against other retailers who do…that was until they developed the Walmart Savings Catcher program which they rolled out last summer nationwide. This program...
