Easter Baskets

My little one who is in prekindergarten, has to make an Easter basket from a berry basket. I have been searching the web to get some ideas. Not many out there for the berry basket but I did get a lot of good ideas. I do think I will stick to ribbon weaving and for the handle that we already finished I used beads that I had left over from an earlier project. Here are some of the neat websites I found while doing my research.

TipJunkie has 70 different ones.
Martha Stewart
Country Living
YouTube
Of course Pinterest if you are not a member become one its free and it has some awesome ideas on it. It does take a while for your invite to go through but so worth it.
When I am done I will post a picture of what we created.

My Winn Dixie Trip March 15, 2012

I am really starting to like Winn Dixie more and more. Their BOGO sales got me hooked. Its almost like double coupons since you get to use 2 coupons on a BOGO sale. I always love when you get to the store and find out something is cheaper than you thought it to be. Today I picked up:

Another good part about Winn Dixie is the fuel perks you get when you shop there. After this shopping trip I am up to .30 cents off per gallon and that is for up to 20 gallons.

I also took a video if you can't make out everything thats there.

Disney Junior Channel

Here you can check if you will get Disney Junior Channel in your area. Cox communications is not going to have it but I am sure if we get enough people complaining about it then maybe something will get done. Enter all your info on the page and it will send a message to them.

McDonalds coupon book

My mom purchased my girls the $1.00 coupon book for valentines day. It comes with many different coupons inside. 3- free hamburgers, 3- free apple juice or white milk 3- free apple slices or 3- free small cones.
You can only use 1 per visit and children have to be under 12 years old. We visited a McDonalds yesterday and while there I seen they were advertising one for spring. Nice to have when you are on the go and the kids want alittle something to eat. Even if you just use the hamburger and buy a $1 fry with it whole meal minus the drink so pick some up. The ones I have don't expire until May 29 so they are good for a while.

Today at CVS March 12, 2012

Found out about the Craig touch screen MP3 players were advertised for $49.99 and you get a $10 CVS cash card back. They were ringing up for $9.99 and you could still get the cash card. I wasn't lucky enough to find any. Wrong place at the wrong time. Manager at one CVS said a lady purchased 6 when they first opened the store.
I did find some good deals on other things.
I purchased the wireless air 60 game system for only $40.00 for $4.99
Zone 3D game system only reg. $60 got it for $4.99
Wireless hunting video game system reg $40.00 got it for $4.99
my favorite one which will come in handy for years to come a lightblast entertainment projector reg. $100 got it for $19.99.
Very excited for Easter.
There are other things that are half price. Slap Wrist Watches reg $4.99.
Check different things in your store. Some have reported portable DVD players for only $20.00.
Sounds like a good time to stock up for Christmas. If I had the space I know I would.
