New To Savings With Sadie

The "News Reel" is bringing you the latest news from the Wall Street Journal, Miami Herald and a variety of other news worthy sites regarding cutting expenses as well.
We all have different reasons for saving money and cutting our budget. For my family, we have a daughter going off to college. The "Hope" is very helpful but it does not cover all expenses -- and a year from now, we will be looking for an apartment for our daughter's sophomore year.
One other incentive for me to save personally -- I enjoy travelling. I am already planning my next trip. Since I am saving several thousand dollars a year through couponing and other savings opportunity that comes my way, my savings will help fund my travels.

Finally A Good Deal on My Dog Food

I can finally use the catalina I have for $2 off Beneful. Check and see if you have one floating around. This is really a good deal considering how many years I paid full price.
I guess I should also check to see if Publix has an in store coupon and stack them. Either way, half off is better that nothing.

Our family recently switched from the PC World to the "Mac" World. We purchased three Apple MacBook Pro Laptop
I have had nothing but problems with my PC in the twelve months I have owned it and am just about ready to ditch it.
Family, friends and strangers have been trying to convert us to a Mac for years and we finally took the plunge. I was really worried about learning something new but it is amazingly easy. After tinkering with it for a few nights, I wonder why I did not change over sooner.
You would know that Apple is offering this amazing deal for a Free iPod with the purchase of select Macs after we purchased our laptops. I am considering giving Apple a call and asking what can they do for me. One good thing is that I did ask for the educational discount on all the lap tops and they gave it to us on each one. I thought we were just going to get the discount off of my daughter's laptop. Your discount depends on which Mac you purchase. Ours was $50 off each lap top.
Click here to visit the Apple Store and check out their offer of a Free iPod and don't forget to ask about the educational discount. The offer is good through September 8th.

Samples from your favorite brands ...
I think we all like to get surprises in our mailbox no matter our age or our household income. People just like to get things for Free. The nice thing about samples is that you almost always get coupons with the product and you also have the opportunity to try a product you have not tried. I have gotten so many samples that I have started giving them away in some of my classes.
Most recently, I received a Glade Plug-In along with a refill and coupons. Let us here about the great samples you have received.

Here is an easy, easy appetizer I put together for my family occasionally. It brings back fond memories of our time together in Italy. If you like cantaloupe and you like prosciutto, try it.
Slice a sweet chilled cantaloupe into cubes and wrap prosciutto around a cube (use toothpick to hold together). The sweet flavor of the fruit collides with the salty taste of the prosciutto. Gustoso!

Book Sale
Today, my daughter and I went to the book sale. I thought it was supposed to be a small sale but there were so many books, I could have spent hours. My daughter found about 8 books in twenty minutes and I was still on the first table. Needless to say, I did not get to spend hours as she was ready to go.
We filled up a box of books and walked away spending only $20. Hardback books were $1.50 and paperback were .50. I would rather spend $1.50 on the Davinci Code than $18! We have enough books to keep us busy all summer. Now I just have to find some quite time to read so I can finish Twilight series and move on to all the other great books.
The sale is still going on tomorrow so stop by and support the library.
____________________________________________
I have to mention an upcoming book sale. I know many of you don't live in my area but just want to make a small post for those that do. I love the library book sales and could spend hours browsing through all the titles. I have picked up some good finds of recent best sellers for next to nothing -- the prices are very reasonable.
Friends of the Brunswick Library will hold an impromptu book sale this Friday and Saturday. There will be lots of children and young adult titles available.For those that don't live in my area, check with your local library to see when your next book sale is scheduled.

Below is what Apple suggests you bring. For further information, go to sign up page.
