Saving In A BIG Way

Bigg's is doing it again, TRIPLE COUPONS. That's right. Starting Friday October 2nd thru Monday October 5th Bigg's will triple manufacturer coupons $.50 and below and will double manufacturer coupons $.55 to a $1.00. Any coupon over $1.00 is at face value. Don't forget to sign up for a Pumps Perks Card if you don't already have one. The last time Bigg's did this promotion I saved $1.46 per gallon of gas at Sunoco. What a bonus!! Bigg's has just recently changed their hours. You may want to call and check to see what time they open and close. Good luck and enjoy.

Senior Pictures

I can't believe it but my first born is a SENIOR this year. I am so proud of his accomplishments and the young man he has grown into. Above are his Senior pictures. These things can be so expensive. As an amateur photographer I decided to take his Senior pictures myself. I have been very busy taken his friends pics as well. If you are looking for a way to save money in this area, don't hesitate to send me an email to discuss how I can take your son or daughters pictures. Contact me at cgtrs@aol.com . Please put in the subject area Senior Pics.

My Previous KMart Shopping Spree

I know this is late to display but I thought it might give you some motivation to go to KMart for their next Double Coupon Event. Missing in the photo above it another package of Cottonelle toilet tissue. My total cost before coupons was $128.17. After coupons I paid only $36.98. I tell ya, saving is addicting!

Sophia Grace Meinhardt

February 26, 2005 - August 21, 2006

I am reaching out to my fellow bloggers and blog readers to take time to visit the site above. The beautiful baby girl that you see pictured was taken from her family suddenly due to a brain tumor. In memory of Little Sophie, and to aid in the pediatric research of brain tumors, her parents organize Sophie's Angel Run. The event takes place on September 27th, 1pm at St. Jude Church in Bridgetown. This is a wonderful family event to attend so mark your calenders. I can't urge you enough to visit the site and read Sophie's story.

All Hands On Deck!

Have you always wanted to go to Alaska? Well Disney is making that possible. Disney Cruise Line will offer Alaskan cruises during a four-month season of seven-night sailings aboard the Disney Wonder in summer 2011. The Disney Wonder will depart out of Vancouver, B.C., calling on popular ports such as Juneau, Ketchikan and Skagway. Click on the link to hear more information about the ports. http://m1e.net/c?51839928-JLBvIvU0f2EKE%404602047-r7InDoqj0DTb6
The Disney Wonder will also sail seven-night Mexican Riviera cruises from the Port of Los Angeles to Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlan and Puerto Vallarta.

The World Is Expanding!

Disney World will begin a major expansion of Fantasyland that will be finished in 2013. This is the largest expansion in the history of Magic Kingdom. Fantasyland will double in size. Toontown will close so that they can build new areas such as spots for Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, and Belle. Also featured will be Beast's castle, which will include a new restaurant that will be counter service during the day and table service by night. Hate those long lines for Dumbo? Well another part of the first phase of the expansion will be the doubling of Dumbo, and a new interactive, three-ring circus tent. Let's not forget Ariel, The Little Mermaid. She will get her very own attraction (which will also open at Disney's California Adventure). The first phase of the expansion should be concluded in 2011. The second phase of the expansion, which should be finished by 2013, will be the construction of Pixie Hollow, featuring Tinker Bell and her fairy friends.
Disney isn't stopping at the Magic Kingdom, Star Wars II: A new, 3-D version of the "Star Tours" attraction will debut at Disney's Hollywood Studios in 2011. This will include new elements that will take you to many familiar places in the Star Wars galaxy.
