New Item @ Lila's Pockets

Go visit Lizzy's sister blog, Lila's Pockets to see the new item that's just been posted. You never know what you might find!

Free Glade Soy Candles @ Walgreens!

I love these candles. I got in on this deal last time and I can't use them enough. The apple smells delicious! I am hoping to get the orange creme one this time. Go HERE and print a $4/1 coupon and pair it with the $2/1 coupon from the Walgreens Easysaver catalog coupon (located at the front of the store). You can print this coupon twice, just keep pushing the back button until it prints again. May your house smell wonderful!

Naked Bugs

After laying my son's clothes out for him this morning he came running into my room stark naked. I asked him what he was doing and he said, "Mom, I'm making sure the bugs don't get me 'cause I'm naked." I said, "what are you talking about?", and he replied, "When bugs get into your house they like to get you when you're naked."

I'm concerned about two things, 1) Is he speaking from experience?, and 2) when have there been bugs in our house? Oh, the mind of a three-year-old. There's nothing like it, other than maybe the mind of my two-year-old. :)

Why I've Been Kind of M.I.A Lately...

I'm sorry I haven't spent a whole lot of time on my post here lately. I've been very busy with life and my other blog Lila's Pockets. I'm trying to get this new business up and running and to my surprise it's been going really well --- except that it does keep me busy. In the next few days I will get some posts up for all my readers. Stay loyal to Lizzy's Language. :) I will be back soon. I promise.

A Few Things Worth Mentioning Again...

I've posted about each of these sites before but they are all worth mentioning again for some of my new readers:

1. Swagbucks


Swagbucks is a search engine site just like google or yahoo. Just by searching from swagbucks you earn points. You then redeem your points for gift cards to places like Starbucks, Target, Victoria's Secret, and so many more! You can earn about 3 to 4 swagbucks a day if you search daily. This adds up to a Starbucks card about every two months, or you can hold out for more valuable prizes (that's what I'm doing!) Go HERE now to start searching and earning points! It really is that simple.

2. The Silver Jewelry Club
The Silver Jewelry Club is a company that literally is so confident that you will love their jewelry that they will send it to you for free and you only pay shipping. I can vouch for this company personally. The jewelry is beautiful and there are no strings attached. I highly recommend it. Click the icon below to start taking a look.




3. E.L.F. make-up
This is a make up company where everything is $1 -- really! With the coupon code CAROLINA you can get orders under $15 for 50% off. That makes the make up $.50! I can also vouch for this company as well. I used this to purchase party favors for a women's even that I was in charge of recently. I bought lip glosses for all the ladies who attended. It was a big hit. This would be a great idea for a wedding shower favor as well. Click the icon below to take a look.



4. Shop for Freebies
This is a cool new site that shows you the newest and latest free stuff offered online. I really like it and it is very easy to use.



5. Gevalia Coffee
This is one of my all time favorite offers. You can get a stainless steel coffee mug and 3 1/2lb. bags of coffee (you can choose the flavors -- many kinds) all for $3! I LOVE their coffee and the mug is really nice, too. I just wish you could do this offer more than once! Click the icon to try it.


6. Vista Print Business Cards
Right now you can get 500 business cards for $1.99. I have used Vista print before and they do a great job for such a good price. If you are in the market for some new business cards I highly recommend using this company and this particular promotion. Click the icon below.

FREE Nursing Covers!

I so wish I had one of these when I was nursing. Right now at Utter Covers you can order a free nursing cover with the code "onefree" and pay only $7.95 for shipping. Great deal! Thanks, Kaley from Kaley's Front Porch!

Holy Cow! CVS Coupons Just Kept Coming!

So, the best part about my CVS run was the beginning of the month coupons I got from the scanner! Whoo hoo! Here's what I got: $15/75, $2 ECB, and $10/20 cosmetic coupons. This is what I got:

2 packages of Huggies $9.99 each

2 Johnsons shampoo $3 each

used 2 $3/1 huggies coupons

used 2 $1/1 Johnsons coupons

ECB's earned: $10 (wyb $25 of products)

Total: $7 for all of it!

Skintimate Shave Gel: $3.49

used $.55/1 from Kroger coupon booklet

ECB's earned: $3.49

Total: FREE, plus $.94 overage!

2 Easter grass $.79 each

ECB's earned: $2 (didn't print out so cashier gave me overage!)

Total: FREE, with $.42 overage!

Softsoap body wash: $5.29

used FREE coupon from Walgreens

Total: FREE!

2 Rubbermaid tupperware pkgs: $.75 each (75% off section)

used $1/2 coupon

Total: $.25 each!

ECB's earned: $10 (wyb $20 of CG products)

Total: all FREE, plus $3 overage!

Then because I needed my total to get up to $75 to use my $15/75 coupon I got these things basically for FREE:

2 Edy's ice cream (BOGO) $6.29

Waffle iron/grill/sandwich smasher $6.25 (75% off)

2 Coffee mugs with cute little diamond designs $.38

**There was a ton of stuff in the 75% off section -- make sure you check your store!**

Because I was starting out with next to zero ECB's, I paid $18 OOP, but I earned $26 in ECB's so I'm stocked up for the coming weeks! It was exhilarating! (I missed you terribly today, Katie!)

Something a Mom Shouldn't Have to Hear...

My three year old son came up behind me tonight and said, "Mom, I really like your shaky butt." Ugh. Why do kids always have to speak the obvious out loud? Moms have to have great self-esteems otherwise we may all just find a hole and hide in it. Something to laugh about.

Overage on Starbucks Chocolate at Target!

Some of you may remember my Starbucks Chocolate deal at Target that I got a few months ago. Well, it happened again today! At Kroger you can get $1/1 coupons from the tear pad in the candy isle (I take a few every time I go in) for any Starbucks chocolate. Right now, Target has their Starbucks truffles (2pk.) marked down for $.90! I got 25 (I use these for favors at parties or put them in gift bags with other goodies) and used 25 coupons giving me $2.50 overage for all those candies. It was awesome! I found the truffles on an end cap near the pharmacy so I hope that helps. Let me know if any of you found this deal, too!

Ruby Tuesdays BOGO Everyday

Check your local Ruby Tuesdays for this deal, but I think it is available nationwide. Everyday from 3:30pm to 5:30pm all of their entrees are BOGO -- no coupon needed! I'm all for eating early if I can get a free meal out of it. :) Go HERE to see the ad.

Lila's Pockets Has It's First Item For Sale

Go check out Lizzy's sister blog -- Lila's Pockets! It just opened with its very first item for sale. Please, note - this site mostly caters to the locals.

Entertainment Books, $15 and FREE Shipping!

I thought this was a pretty good deal and maybe even a great mother's day gift for some. Right now the 2009 Entertainment Books are $15 with FREE shipping! At this price it will probably pay for itself in one meal. Click the icon for the deal.

BOGO on Business Cards!

I love Vistaprint. They do a great job on business cards. I've used them several times and have always been very pleased with their work. If you are in need of a business card here's a deal for you! For only $1.99 you get 250 cards, plus another 250 cards FREE! Take advantage of this; I don't know how long this promotion will last. Click on the icon for your cards.

Chuck E. Cheese and Jesus are Not the Same

A few weeks ago my daughter experience one of the most traumatizing moments of her life. She came face to face with what apparently is her worst nightmare --- Chuck E. Cheese. I don't blame her, I have always had a very, strong aversion to any person dressed in a large animal costume. There isn't much else on this planet that makes me more uncomfortable. Anyway, my mom decided to take the kids there one afternoon, and quickly realized by the high, pitch shrills of my daughter that their stay would not last long. For days my daughter told everyone she came into contact with that "I don't like Chuck E. Cheeses. He scare me. I cry at Chuck E. Cheeses." If we passed a Chuck E. Cheese in the car the crying would begin all over again. If Chuck E. Cheese was advertised on television she would inevitably tell you the whole story from start to finish. Needless to say, we will not be going to Chuck E. Cheese for many years to come. The story is cute and funny if you end it there, but my child took it to another level this weekend. My mom was rocking and singing "Jesus loves me" to my daughter before bed. My daughter sat straight up and said. "I don't like Jesus. He scare me." My mom quickly tried to correct her and find out why she would say such a thing. My daughter, as serious as a two year old can be said, "My don't like Chuck E. Jesus, he scare me. He got big eyes!" So, not only has Chuck E. Cheese scared her for life, but now her theology is a mess, too! She now knows Chuck E. Cheese and Jesus are not the same --- and this is now what we hear 40 times a day now. "They not the same, Chuck E. Cheeses and Jesus are not the same."

FREE PIZZA!

***Sorry --- No longer available! I guess it ended this afternoon. Bummer.***

Dominos is offering a free medium one-topping pizza with the coupon code BAILOUT. I don't know if this is working in all areas, but this is working in the Indianapolis area for my local readers! Yeah, who doesn't like a free meal? Go HERE to place your order. Fill in the coupon code first and then choose your pizza.

The Softsoap Deal at Walgreens

This is a really great deal! I just did it four times! Use a $1/1 off Softsoap body wash (it was in the paper this weekend) and buy one for $3.99 (making it $2.99). Once you buy one, a coupon for a free body wash will print off with your receipt. Use this coupon to buy another one and another free coupon will print off. You can keep rolling this as much as you want. I'm sure this deal will end soon so hurry and get your body wash! Also, if you were able to print the $4/1 coupon for the Glade fragrance collection, combine that with the Easysaver coupon for $2/1 and you get free candles. These are fabulous -- the Macintosh apple smells just like a Yankee candle. Have fun!

Get a Sneak Peak at My New Site!

In the next few months I will be starting a new site....head over to Lila's Pockets to see what I've been up to.

Coffee is My Drug....I'm Always Looking for a Good Deal

I LOVE this deal. I've done it once and tried to do it for my husband but it's only one per household. For $3 you get 3 different 1/2 lb. bags of coffee (there's a ton of fabulous flavors to choose from) and a stainless steel travel mug. We thoroughly enjoyed this coffee in our house. I am sad to be finishing it up. Get yours by clicking on the icon below.
