Welcome to my site! I LOVE helping people save money at the stores so they can put it to a more effective use for their families! I saved $40,000 in less than one year from just making a few simple changes in our family budget - you can too! Couponing and Meal Planning are just the tip of the iceberg - but account for about 50% of my savings! You will find where to get coupons , printable coupon links , SavingStar info, Swagbucks info and All You deals , along with the local stores' coupon policies and Ad Match Ups . I also have a lot of recipes posted, information about Coupons For The Military and online deal shopping sites info posted. I am on Twitter, Pinterest and Facebook too (under Operation 40K) if you want to schedule a class or have any questions, please just shoot me an email at op40K@aol.com . Blessings, Dannelle

SON: "Daddy, may I ask you a question?" DAD: "Yeah sure, what is it?" SON: "Daddy, how much do you make an hour?" DAD: "That's none of your business. Why do you ask such a thing?" SON: "I just want to know. Please tell me, how much do you m ake an hour?" DAD: "If you must know, I make $100 an hour." SON: "Oh! (With his head down). SON: "Daddy, may I please borrow $50?" The father was furious. DAD: "If the only reason you asked that is so you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense, then you march yourself straight to your room and go to bed. Think about why you are being so selfish. I work hard everyday for such this childish behavior." The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door. The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boy's questions. How dare he ask such questions only to get some money? After about an hour

Today, I got this Home Theater System FREE with my points. I didn't even have to pay for shipping! Super cool - right? THANK YOU Survey Wisconsin!! My Friend Amy tipped me off to this - a local survey/research company that also does paid product panels. She actually got paid $20 to eat ice cream, LOL! Since then, I have been a member and taken surveys and done research panels. I have gotten paid with checks, pre-paid Visa gift cards, even a set of 4 season passes to a Dell's Water park! My friend Crystal showed up for a panel and they were already full - but they still gave her $125, then they invited her for a $100 survey the next week! Seriously, if you are in the area - this is a GREAT company! The company is called City Research Solutions, LLC and is located in downtown Janesville. They are recruited by companies from all over looking for customer type feedback so that they can fine tune their products before they place them on the market. They send surveys to

I just ADORE the people I have met since starting this blog! Seriously. :) I can't stop laughing about the Elmo Sightings today at the Dane County East Just Between Friends Sale . If you aren't familiar with Just Between Friends, it is a chain of businesses that are often run by Moms, like me. It is a resale event. Think megga garage sale, but everything works, is complete, in good repair, etc. They are pretty tough on items being checked in so shoppers only get great stuff. {Cool, right?} So, this weekend is their big sale in DeForest at the Comfort Inn and Suites. Everything you need for your child ages newborn to preschool!: clothing from newborn to size 5, shoes, toys, baby equipment (high chairs, pack n plays, strollers, swings, etc), nursing gear, you name it, it will be here! Friday, 3/1, 10am to 8pm & Saturday, 3/2, 10am to 6pm. FREE ADMISSION both days and on Saturday - many items will be 1/2 off!   Now, down to Elmo Mania... They have been fi

Next time Miss Sarah looses a tooth.... I think something like this will be coming, LOL!

It looks like there will be three inserts in the paper this weekend ... a SmartSource, PG and a RedPlum. You can check out what coupons are on the national line up -- but keep in mind that we may see slightly different ones in our own area. Want more coupons? Here is an easy way to get them: COUPON CLIPPING SERVICES You can always use a clipping service to get more insert coupons or ones that were not available in your local paper. I recommend these 4 sites Now that the Dollar Tree no longer carries the Sunday paper for $1.00 - it's time to talk discount subscriptions. (sigh) Check it out HERE to see if you have any special offers in your area. **This is a sponsored post.

Here is a list of the current offers -- they are simply rewards you get, after you buy a product or combination of products. It comes in the form a coupon with a cash value for your next shopping experience. Cool - right? Simply print the ones you are interested in - they have all the details on them AND you can have them in your hands when you check out, just in case you didn't get it after you paid for the items. **This is a sponsored post.
