About Us I am a stay at home mom with three wonderful kids. I have been married for over 8 years to my best friend. I am head over heals in love with him. He always supports my crazy "thrifty adventures". We have a lot of fun together. I was raised on a small dairy farm. Where I learned very young, the value of hard work and how to be thrifty in all areas of life. Growing up our meals were made from scratch. Only on special occasion would we get name brand cereal, chips, or any other fancy treats. Now that I am a Mom with my own budget, the basic foods always comes first. I too make most of our meals from scratch and take pride in feeding my family a well balanced healthy diet. I enjoy seeing how far I can make our budget stretch, and when I take the time to match sales with coupons I am able to get all those "fun & fancy" items that would other wise be out of my budget. Being thrifty has always been a way of life for me, but it has also become a real joy.

    I just bought this, and Sephora gave me a free shipping code GETSTARTED. So you don’t have to find a filler. Also, going through Bing.com, sephora offers 20% cashback.

  • oh! you can also go to retailmenot to find codes that will add free stuff to your order (like a clutch, lip balm, etc!)

  • Not sure what the problem with Gift Certificates is. I thought I hadn’t received it, but found out that somehow I accidentally deleted it without looking at it… Love that I can save my GC in my account and use it whenever without having to try to save the email with the info! Very useful!
