Ever wondered how far in advance you needed to book airline tickets to get the best deal or when to buy that new bicycle for your son or daughter? Well the Go Frugal Blog at FreeShipping.org has compiled a Best Time to Buy Guide which includes 45 items and the best time of year to buy them, in order to get the best deals!
The guide has a lot of useful information and includes everything from products like air conditioners, gas & furniture to home buying, insurance and even groceries!

Menu Plan Monday – Use It or Lose It Edition
Happy Menu Plan Monday!
It’s the last week of the month and that means making sure I finish up all the meals I prepared doing Once a Month Mom’s cooking plan for the month of April. We’ve done pretty well so far, eating most of the dishes. We just need to eat a few more so we’ll have room for next month’s batch of meals. If you’d like to check out any of these recipes, head over to Once A Month Mom. You’ll find them, here. Keep in mind the recipes will need to be adjusted for traditional portions.
- Monday – Spaghetti with meatballs
- Tuesday — Shrimp with roasted red peppers and fetta
- Wednesday – Grilled chicken with black beans and rice
- Thursday — Stouffers lasagne w/ salad
- Friday — Grilled chicken over angel hair pasta
- Saturday — Stouffers lasagne w/veggies
- Sunday – *Sandwiches w/ spinach and cheese tortillini soup
* This is the day that Amy and I will be doing our Once a Month Cooking for the month of May.
I Marched for Maddie
Yesterday, along with Kathi, Diana, Kelly, Liz, Tela and Amy (and a couple of spouses and Kids) I participated in the March of Dimes, March for Babies walk at Sawyer Point.
We walked for Maddie, a precious little girl who passed away on April 7 from respiratory complications. Our team was one of many across the country walking in the sweet little girls memory. You can read more about Maddie, here.
If you’d like to show your support to Heather and Mike, you can still March for Maddie in the March of Dime’s March for Babies walk in a lot of states. You can find a list of teams acrouss the county on Sarcastic Mom’s site, here.
