I’m not a big fan of candy – and really neither are my kids, so its always a challenge to find fun, inexpensive gifts for Halloween, Easter, Valentine’s etc. I found these three chicks, made out of 6 puzzle pieces for just $6.50 at MiniSocial . If you haven’t signed up for their emails , you should. It’s an easy way to find these kinds of deals when I miss them Then you can share with me! (All of these puzzles and toys can be found under the Imagiplay sale.)   MiniSocial also has these unfinished rabbit puzzles which double as a craft project – paint included – for just $6 ! And if you have a little one like I do, they even have these bird teething rattles for just $7 .

If you haven’t heard.m Photoworks is closing. But in order to make things easier on their customers, they are offering a $30 Shutterfly credit if you transfer your photos from them to Shutterfly . Here’s how you do this: 1. Go to Shutterfly and create an account. You will receive 50 FREE prints. (You can use an existing account if you already have one.) 2. Go to Photoworks.com and enter your login information. 3. Click on the link that says “Transfer Your Photos.” Once you do this, you will no longer be able to access your photos at Photoworks and it may be up to 48 hours before they appear in your Shutterfly account. At some point during that 48 hours you should receive your $30 credit. In addition, some have reported being able to stack this credit with the current FREE shipping on orders over $30 promotion by using the code SHIP30 at checkout. That’s a HOT deal. Can’t wait to get my credit!

Our crew likes to go . . . Mommy and Daddy prefer to travel alone, but as the kids get older we really do look forward to taking some fun family adventures together. But with three kids, how do you find the money to do that? Here are some of the ways we save when we travel: 1. Plan ahead. Sometimes the best deals are when the item first becomes available to the public because they are trying to make it worth their while. Then once the basic costs are covered, they raise prices to make as much money as possible. We’ve gotten rock bottom prices on cruises by literally being one of the first people to book the cruise. Later, when other family members decided to join us they paid more for the same size room on the same cruise! 2. Wait until the last minute. Ha! I know that sounds contradictory, but this is the other time that you may find outstanding deals. If you have the flexibility to wait or change plans at the last minute, you can find absolute steals on travel. Think about ...
