Stretch Your Savings

I love this time of year!  Back To School deals are popping up all over the place! My favorite so far has to be this: Click here to read a post on SouthernSavers.com !  It gives the details on how to get 2 backpacks at Office Max for just a penny each! I can't wait!  We love donating as many school supplies as possible each year & this is the perfect way to start. Walmart has the basics on sale right now & there are some coupons that match.  We've found good deals on crayons, markers, colored pencils & pens so far.  I imagine that the rest will go on sale soon.  Keep your eyes peeled!

I am still dreaming of the day I am out of the Las Vegas ant farm.  I feel claustrophobic (and a little creeped out) with my neighbors basically on top of me when I'm in our backyard. My hubby and I want to grow our own food.  We do the best we can with the tiny yard we have here, but we want acres!  Enough food to feed us, our extended family, friends and whoever's in need. These Kansas farmers made a parody to "I'm Sexy And I Know It".  They sing, "I'm Farming And I Grow It"!  I'm glad they're proud of what they do.  I'm proud of them. The average age of a farmer is surprisingly old (with the majority of them being in their 70s!).  We need more young, enthusiastic farmers like these guys.  Enjoy! Click here for the video!
