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.

Why I love Johnson Buddy Soap

Empty shampoo bottle

The last few weeks there have been several coupons out that help you  get buddy soap for free. I tried these for the first time a bout a year ago, and I have to say I love them.  Why….because they last longer than 1 day at my house.  Matt was giving the kids a bath last night, and he asked if I had any liquid kid soap.  I told him it was hidden up high, out of the reach of the kids.  He looked at me like I was nuts.  I told him I have to hide it or they dump the whole bottle in the tub, that is why I just let them just the buddy bars.

So I gave him the bottle, but he forgot to put it up.  Sure enough today I found Maleeys with the bottle NOW EMPTY……good grief.  So if you have little ones that like to dump the soap out…you may give Buddy soap a try.  After all you can get it free.
