GONE for SO LONG. . .

Did anyone out there miss me? Just kidding. . . Ok. . . So I have also been trying to find dirt in my rock infested flower bed to start a small garden . . .Any suggestions on square foot gardening. . . ????

I have started Cucumbers, Sweet Peas, Onions, Pepper, Jalapenos, Tomatoes (if my friend will still give me a few of hers that she started, pst if you are out there you can have my some of my cucumbers . .hopefully if they ever start to grow). . . I have big plans for Pumpkins, but am not so sure on that one. I guess I have to wait until late May to plant those suckers. . and watermelons. . . I have not yet figured out that one.

I have been able to transplant (I sound like a Dr, just kidding) a few of the neighbors bushes that she no longer wanted into my rock infestation, so far I have not killed them. Unlike the fish I bought last week for my kiddos, started with 6, down to 1.5 (we will see if the 2nd one makes it thru the night, another story for another day)

Answering Questions

Sara, my long time acquaintance from High School, and Clubs has come to my couponing class and posted a few questions...

1 - Do you clip ALL the coupons? If you don't, how do you decide...I mean, what if you regret not clipping it?

Yes and No, I mostly clip them all, I never know when a good deal may roll around. Do I always use them...NO. I never clip the pet food items mostly because I do not have a dog. Usually if I see the same coupon come out with in a few weeks of each other, it will give me a clue that they are working with food chains to have good deals, sometimes with rebates attached. Remember in my last coupon class we had the Kellogs Fuel for School, where it was a $4.00 money maker for me??? That would be an example of the Kellogs coupons. I also watch store displays, the blinkies to gather up good coupons for items.

2 - Do you just know what you like to eat or do you get dinner ideas from somewhere? Would you put some of you meals on here? I can buy lots of food, but I hate to cook, and I never know what to do with it.

The biggest place I get dinner ideas is from Friends and Family. I also use this amazing freezer worthy book to make up to a week of meals at one time and freeze them. It allows me to not go to the grocery store as much.

3 - Have you been to that new "Fresh Market" place? Is is good? (I have a gift card to there.)

Honeslty, No...Frest Market has taken over a majority of the Albertson's Stores in Utah. They were bought by Assoicated Foods, which you will see the same deals hit Macey's and Kohler's not always the same. I have not even stepped into the store...

4 - Do you print all the coupons that you see online? What if you don't use them?

No I don't see a need to print all the coupons online. I watch www.savvyshopperdeals.com to see if an item on "MY STORE" is low and see if they use a coupon from the Sunday's paper or if they print them on line. This saves my little ink cartridge from being wasted. If they expire, I never send them to the Navy or the groups that can use them over seas. I am afraid that they may copy them, thus allowing my IP address to be in danger from people taking advantage of the online coupons.

5 - How long does it take you to prepare to go shopping? Do you go to EVERY store, even if you're only getting one or two things there?

It can take a while for me to prepare to go shopping. However I usually look at "MY STORE" to see what is low, take the Tuesday papers SMITHS, BUY LOW and MACEYS and if I can find the Albertsons ad for Orem and see what items are on sale to help build up my shelf back up.

Hope this helps Sara...
