Neutrogena Pure and Free Baby 2:38 PM

This weekend it was wonderfully sunny. I spent the day outside gardening with my 2 year old. I did not apply my sunscreen. I got a sunburn. On the other hand, I did put Neutrogena's Pure and Free baby on my 2 year old. She did not get burned. I like this product because it has an SPF of 60. The sun screen also has no odor and it isn't greasy. My 7 month old has also used the product. She has sensitive skin and eczema and it does not irritate her skin.
The nice folks at BZZagent sent me a few bottles of Neutrogena Pure&Free Baby to try. You can check out the sunscreen at this link.

A Full Cup
There are tons of coupons on A Full cup. I really like how you can search for particular coupons that you are looking for. You can search what type of coupon, printable, etc. You can also search in particular categories. They also give you the expiration date as well, which many of the coupons don't have.
They also have what is called the Target coupon generator. How it works, is, they give you the options of all of the coupons that you can print out for Target at that time. You can also chose the number of coupons you want for that item. These coupons can be combined with other manufacturers coupons for double discounts!

A few money saving ideas 9:58 AM

Monday stamp prices are going up. Starting Monday stamps will go up 2 cents! Act today.

Does your computer tell you your out of ink, but you know there is ink left? There is a way using a paper clip pushing a small button on the front of may ink cartridges that you can reset the cartridge and use it for longer. I tried this the other day and it was amazing! There are videos on-line where you can see this done.
