I usually only post deals and specials in the area, but after a run-in I had today with some not nice people I feel compelled to get this off my small chest.I made the giant enormous mistake of going to the post office with all three of my kids at meltdown time (4-5 pm) when there was a line to mail some boxes. I know, this is a cardinal mistake of giant proportions. My little ones were acting

Just putting out there my prayers for the families and students touched by the events at Virginia Tech. Praying for them as they seek comfort, security and peace after such an event.

There are 2 wonderful times of the year where you can get some really great children's clothes for some really great prices. And lots of them are barely worn! You can score some major deals on infant clothes, since they are worn so little and little girls clothes too. Girls seem to have more clothes than boys and are generally not as rough in the wearing. So the selection for them is much better

I was recently interviewed for an article regarding bargain shopping and moms with blogs. The website it is for is called momseasychair.com. They are a website for moms that "nurtures the female identity while celebrating parenting . . ." Well anyway, here is the link to the article.Moms Easy Chair - Article with my name in it!So take the time to stop by and read it. And if you have any other

As a busy mom of three kids and one who did the baby plans for them all. And as the serious shopper that I am I tried out LOTS of places.First of all let me say as the budget permits, professional portraits are totally worth it in my opinion. You will be more likely to get a customized session geared towards exactly what you like and want on your schedule and timetable. Even if you are only

Happy Halloween. Hope that all your little ones had a great time getting loads of candy. Mine had a blast and came home with buckets full of stuff. Much more than their little bodies can consume. I just ordered a pizza to be delivered for us parents for dinner and the little people are off to bed on a raging sugar high.The crazy part here is the Santa part. As amazing as it is Christmas seems to

Well . . . maybe it is, maybe it isn't. But here are my favorites and where I know of for getting some great ice cream! (and some for how to get it on the cheap!)Brusters - my personal fave. i really like me some Oreo cheesecake. they have very generous servings as well. the best part here is the free baby scoop (well kids scoop). you can get a very tiny scoop, in a tiny cone (or cup) with hair (

The most commonly asked for information that I keep in my head is a weekly schedule of places that you can feed your children for free or pretty darn cheap in the Alpharetta area. And yes, you can do it nightly if you wish (I have before!) Apparently the good restaurateurs here don't think that Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday are the nights to make designated kids nights, so the handy

I have one simple goal these days. To live here and yet not pay full price for anything! That is my challenge to myself. (and my attempt to keep the household on a budget of sorts) I have been asked many times to put some information in one simple place. Free meals, great deals, all the fun spiffy info that I like to keep locked up in my head. Well . . . the time has come to try and put it down
