Day 30 of No Dining Out December Posted: 30 Dec 2010 05:19 AM PST Can you go an entire month without going out to eat? What about a week or a day? Can you cut your dining bill by 20%, 50% , 75% or more? That is what I challenge you to do! At the end of the 30 days, I will choose one winner who will get $50 to spend however they choose! The rules: 1. You must challenge yourself. Try to spend less than you spend now. If you don’t go out to eat at all, challenge yourself to try new meals this month. As long as you are challenging yourself when it comes to your family’s eating habits, you can participate! 2. You must comment on at least 10 days worth of the discussion posts in order to be eligible to win the gift card. 3. The winner will be chosen at random. It won’t matter if you have been 100% successful or not. 4. You are allowed 1 freebie meal that you don’t have to count or report back to us about. Please report on everything else though so we can encourage and support one another! 5. Free meals do not count against you. This is a challenge to spend less money going out to eat than you usually spend. If someone else is paying for the meal or you have a coupon to make it free, great! 6. Here is a thought… consider keeping a tally of what you would of spent this month. For example, if you really want to go out for breakfast this morning and you resist… write that down! You could then donate that money to a food bank or deposit it into your fund! 7. Be sure to check out our list of casserole recipes here and the crock pot recipes here and the under 6 ingredient recipes here. My progress: No dining out for us yesterday! Hubby took his lunch to work and then sat in his truck and listened to the radio after he finished. How are you doing?

Extreme Couponing – Did you watch it? Posted: 30 Dec 2010 05:06 AM PST Before I say anything, I want to remind you that the four people on the show are fellow couponers and might very well be reading this blog. I personally have spoken to two of them since I started blogging. Last night, TLC had a new one hour special called Extreme Couponing. It was about 4 coupon obsessed people who take their hobby to the extreme. They featured 4 different people. The lady with 40 years of toilet paper, the lady who jumps in dumpsters for coupons, the lady who hasn’t paid for toothpaste in 34 years and the man who hitches a trailer onto his car to go shopping. And of course the show made them look like crazy people to the average person. To me, they looked like pros. Everyone is capable of doing what they did on the show. They just have to be dedicated. That is what I love about couponing. It’s not like someone has some super human strength that you can never achieve. You are capable of doing everything those people did. But do you want to? The first lady who has $35,000 insurance on her stockpile made my mouth drop open. I had never heard of insuring your stockpile. Imagine the look on your agent’s face when you told him what you wanted to insure…… I couldn’t help but chuckle over that. The second lady who jumped in the dumpster. Now she’s my kind of girl. I would totally do that (and I have)! It’s insane the amount of coupons that people throw away. Of course you can’t just go jump in any dumpster. You do have to know if it’s allowed by law and get permission from the people that own the land it’s on, but it is worth it if you can do it. The third lady just tickled me. I’d love to spend a few hours talking to her. It sounds to me that she makes a difference in her community. She even took a newbie with her on the televised shopping spree. I love that she shouts from the rooftops about the savings she gets and that she isn’t worried about the ‘competition’ by training her friends and neighbors to shop like she does. Nathan. I love Nathan. He is one of the people that I have spoken to in the past. Nathan loves a great deal. But he also shares his great deals with all his local food banks. So while shopping is a high for him, he doesn’t keep the rewards for himself. He shares the wealth. I loved his Total cereal pyramid. So what can you take away from the show? First, never let a deal consume you. When I first started I was like that. If I missed a deal I was sick to my stomach over it. But the longer you do it, the more you realize that the deals are going to come around again and again and again. The average product goes on sale about every 12 weeks. So just getting enough for 12 weeks is sufficient. You don’t NEED 40 years of toilet paper. You don’t NEED 200 boxes of pasta. You could get by with just enough to last you 3 months because it is going to come around again. Second, don’t let the show fool you. This takes time. Lots and lots of time. But you have to think of the time you spend as your hourly wage. If you spent 10 hours preparing for a shopping trip and actually doing the shopping and you saved $2000, that is like making $200 an hour! Cha-Ching! Third, know your store and know your cashiers. It’s important to build a relationship with them. Let them know that you are an honest person and they have nothing to fear by checking you out. A lot of cashiers and managers will swoop on an extreme couponer like hawk on prey because they feel that we are stealing from them. There are dishonest couponers out there that try to use more coupons then they should, copy printable coupons (which is illegal), and just ruin it for the rest of us. By building a relationship with your store and cashiers, it will get to where they welcome the site of you because they know they have nothing to worry about. I love when I reach that point with a store. It is like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. So what did you think of the show? Do you think you are extreme enough to be on the next episode? If you missed the show, here is when you can catch it again: Jan 04, 10:00 pm Jan 05, 1:00 am

Touring the parks with my tip sheets Posted: 29 Dec 2010 04:36 PM PST I wanted to put all my tips in one location to make it easy for me to pull them up while we are in the parks.

Disney Trip: Plans and advice needed on day 1 and 2 Posted: 29 Dec 2010 04:00 PM PST I would love your opinion and advice on my Disney trip plans for the weekend. Saturday Saturday morning we are going to wake up the kids at about 5 am (we are early risers) and surprise them with the trip. We are going to get a big Mickey balloon and put it in a wrapped box and let them open it. They will FREAK. (Yes I plan to video tape it.) We will then drive straight from Birmingham to Orlando. It’s about an 8-9 hour drive. We just get so excited we can’t stop for the night anywhere. Saturday night we are looking at going to The Boardwalk and taking a boat over to the Swan and Dolphin to have dinner at Garden Grove. It is a character meal and one of my readers sent me a $25 Restaurants.com gift certificate. I figured it would be a great place to try. I have booked us a room at one of the hotels at Downtown Disney since our reservations don’t start until Sunday night and staying on property is $$. Sunday I booked us a reservation at O’hanas for breakfast. We ate there in 2009 and LOVED it. We aren’t doing many sit down meals this trip, but this is one that I would love to do again. After breakfast, we are going to resort hop. Which ones do you suggest visiting? At 1 pm we are going to Downtown Disney to meet my readers friends at Earl of Sandwich. If you are going to be in the area, please let me know! I’d love to meet you. My husband has his ride experience from 3-5 pm at the speedway. I figured he could take the van and drive over there. We will stay in the Downtown Disney area and play and shop. When he returns, we will head over to Hollywood Studios to see the Osborne lights before they take them down. I would love to have dinner at Pizza Planet. If you have any tips or advice for me, please let me know!

Reminder – Couponing to Disney meet up at Downtown Disney on Sunday at 1 pm Posted: 29 Dec 2010 03:30 PM PST Are you going to be in Orlando this Sunday? If so, I’d love to meet you! I’ll be meeting with my friends at 1 pm at the patio in front of Earl of Sandwich. If you can make it, send me an email and let me know!
