Save money on groceries

For all of us looking for ways to save money I highly suggest checking out The Grocery Game

The Grocery Game is a website that can save you hundreds of dollars on your grocery bill each month. Log in, spend a few minutes with a pair of scissors, and you're off to win The Grocery Game!

When you play, you'll get a weekly list (called Teri's List) of the lowest-priced products at your supermarket matched with manufacturers' coupons and weekly specials -- advertised and unadvertised. The Grocery Game does all the hard work and research, and presents it to you in a straightforward format.

Some folks buy multiple Sunday papers and clip all of the coupons. Others "buy" coupons online. I like Coupon Clippers. Also the Grocery Game has a Forum where you can get on a "coupon train" and trade coupons with others via mail.

It is important to know that if coupons come out on Sundays that it usually takes 3-4weeks until the products will be at their rock bottom prices which is why The Grocery Game is the best source. They track weekly prices at the stores of your choice and tell you when is the right time to buy.

Best news: a 4 week trial is only $1.

Go ahead, give it a try. Everyone loves to save money. Use it to buy that one thing you just have to spluge on.

Let the GAME begin!

MacLaren - Oh so cool

I'm sure you know the English company MacLaren?
Well they are coming out with FANTASTIC seat covers for their strollers. Tons of different prints ranging from bold to preppy and ONLY $30.

30 bucks for a bit of design, a bit of savvy and a long glance from others mom's at the park. Worth it? I think so!

I wish I had a photo as this isn't on their site yet.

Keep on the look out for their fall release at MacLaren.com

Click for CLEK

We found these uber-cool booster seats for car safety from a Canadian company called CLEK. We loved their stain resistant fabrics and colors and the fact that they are made by an automotive seat manufacturer who was commission by the Canadian government to create a safer car booster seat.

For kids 40+ inches the backless OLLI seat can't be beat

And coming in January 2009 the OOBR with a full back is the solution for smaller kids 38 inches+. This seat also converts to a backless booster to grow with your Hip Kid.

Available in a store near you or always online.

At the end of a train of many parenting websites...

Do you know www.caboose.com?
Chug on over there and check out there very well done site with lots of ideas to keep moms and tots busy.

Take a look at their section on Halloween: crafts, treats, games and coloring pages to boot. We weren't even thinking of throwing a Halloween bash until this site caught our eye.
