Smarten Up: Play Games and Feed the Hungry at FreeRice

FREE Rice

FREE Rice

This site’s main goal is simple: Expand people’s vocabulary while feeding the world.

If you can simply take less than 5 minutes of your time and at least do a couple of rounds of vocabulary quizzes, who knows, you might save a person from hunger with a bowl of rice. And it’s fun, and a bit addicting.

Not only will this help to save people’s lives, but this can help you with the SAT’s, ACT’s and other exams that require a large vocabulary. I even learned some new vocabulary because of this site.

Get Into the Grocery Coupon Game–Part Two

Coupons=More Groceries for Less $

Coupons=More Groceries for Less $

To summarize my Get Into The Coupon Game: Clip, Organize, & Save! blog, I talked about putting together a coupon binder as well as cutting and organizing coupons. We are ready to move on to the next step.

On Wednesday mornings, I pull all the grocery ads from the newspaper (there are usually coupons included). If you don’t get the newspaper, you can ask to be placed on the mailing list for all the grocery stores–most will be happy to mail you a weekly ad. I go through each ad and write down their best deals for the week. All of the stores lower their prices on certain items to pull you into their store, and we want to take advantage of them.

Clip those Coupons! You hear about it everywhere, you see people at the checkout in the grocery stores with their coupons, but you figure it is not worth your time and the headache of cutting coupons. Besides, they can’t be saving enough money to really make a difference! That’s exactly what I thought a few years ago. I had a young family and I worked; where would I find the time to cut and organize coupons? If only I knew then, what I know now.

I have always been frugal and watched every dime. But I was missing out on huge savings and the excitement and challenge of coupon shopping. Yes, it does take a little of your time, but it is worth it!  We all shop a little differently and therefore can learn from one another.  Let me share with you my method.
