Dollar Tree Now Accepts Coupons!!!!

Just in case you couldn't tell I'm BEYOND excited that Dollar Tree is now accepting manufacturer coupons. I mean really, does it get any better than that?!  You know the price is always a dollar and you don't have to wait for sales.  There is only two tricks to this game.  What do they carry and does the product size fit what the coupon requires. I made a list of items that the N Dixie Dollar Tree in Dayton, OH carries that POTENTIALLY could have coupons available for them.  Use this as a reference as you go through your coupons to give you an idea what kind of deals you might be able to get.

TIP:  When checking out give the cashier the coupon with each item.  It appears the register system is not set up for scanning and accepting coupons (as far as determining if the item was purchased), so the cashier will review your item and your coupon as you go.  This also means you need to pay VERY close attention to the size and product description listed on the coupon, because the cashier likely will. 

You can use the coupon database at MyFrugalAdventures to help you find coupons. http://myfrugaladventures.com/database/

Birthday Countdown Fun

Train cupcake treat Ethan brought to school for his 4th Bday.

I'm big on planning fun stuff for the kids birthdays.  Nothing terribly expensive and elaborate, but definitely creative.   This year I have plans on doing a combined family party with the them of Tutus and ChooChoos. Tutus for little Miss Zoey who will be 2 years old and ChooChoos (for the 3rd year in a row) for Ethan who will be 5.  I think it sounds wonderfully fun.  We'll just have to see in a month or 2 what comes of that idea.  ;)

Zoey sporting the tutu I made her for her 1st bday

Any who, I ran across an idea that is too brilliant not to share (and quite frankly help me remember).  A paper chain birthday countdown.  So easy but so cool!  Kids are totally visual, so this is perfect.  On the outside of the paper link write how many days until their birthday.  On the inside of the link have a family member write a memory they want to share the the birthday child. Each day the birthday child gets to take another link off and read the message.  I love sharing and keeping memories, so I am in love with idea.  I think I would want to save the links in some sort of book to be able to review years down the road.
