Our Trip to Seattle & Amazing Deals

Last week Eric and I went to Seattle to visit Mike, Tamara and Marissa. We also took care of Marissa over Valentines weekend so Tamara and Mike could get away. They went to Boston...We played "Mom and Dad" for the weekend. It was a lot of fun. Marissa is a doll!



Her favorite "thing" is George. George stinks...well not really Marissa just likes to smell him and say he stinks...I think Mike taught her that...she loves it!


Eric and Marissa


One Valentines we took Marissa to Taco Bell. It was the only place that didn't have a wait.


Seattle was COLD! Do you like Marissa's hat? I made it. She loved being outside.


Who wouldn't love that face!
When we got back to CA my Mom gave us our Valentines cookies! I love being back at home!

So if you haven't checked out the deals at Alberstsons you MUST! My mom and I went twice (yesterday and today) and we made out like bandits. The key is to have coupons...when you buy 10 General Mills products you get a $10 towards your next purchase coupon. Then you use that for your next order. I found my coupons online. You must buy Progresso soup. Go to their website and print off their coupons. This order we bought 50 items...saved $156 and only spent 16 dollars!

We bought 60 items here and saved $165 but only spent $22. I am a believer in coupons!
Check out this site...everything I know I learned from her. You will have to scroll down to get the Alberstons deals.

I am a big believer in coupons! I get five Sunday papers so that I have five sets of coupons. There is another site that is good. They are based out of Cache Valley Utah but I think that the ads are the same. Anyway it is pinchingyourpennies.com

They do all of the work for you. They review all the ads and tell you which coupons to use with what sale and where to find the coupon.

Wow! What a saver! I have got to start doing the coupon thing better. You got some killer deals! Your little niece is so stinkin' cute! How fun that you guys could go and visit them. How are things going in CA? I wish I was there. I am so sick of the snow and cold, I just want it to be warm again.

I am sad I didn't get to see you guys and Nathan did up in Seattle. When are you coming for a visit to I.F. again? We are blessing Izzie on Easter, so I hope you guys can make it! We miss you.
