Hey Josh, and Coupons!
A couple goodies for you today!
First off, thanks to my BFF in California and the Bakersfield Californian, today’s PSA is all about the Coupon Cutting at Save At Home Mommy!
Now, a lot of these coupons don’t work for me, being as I live in Alaska and we don’t have the same stores – but a lot of them do, too – and when you’re feeding a gazillion teenagers and their friends, you know it’s all about pinching those pennies until it HURTS. Kerri Scarlett understands, and delivers daily deals and coupons to print out – and even recipes to go with some of the sales she discovers! Today, for instance, London Broil is on sale at Albertsons for $1.79/lb – and she includes several ideas of what to do with the meat to help it stretch farther, as well as links to some recipes to help get you started.
There’s also Frugal Finds Friday – where everyone helps finding exciting deals across the country – so be sure to check it out! That extra buck or two you save could mean an extra Diet Coke for Mom! 🙂
Even better? Free Chocolate Friday. INORITE?
So check out saveathomemommy.com today!
Next up, it’s Hey Josh!
I’ve featured him a couple times before, and the link to his site is right down there on the sidebar too – Josh Shipp is funny, engaging, and “In your face, but on your side!” With his snark and fun and honest take on honest problems – including unsolicited advice to the Australian Girl who got lost in a storm drain and instead of using her cell phone to call for help – used it to update her Face Book Status with a call for help.
…
Yeah. I know.
ANYWAY! Josh has a couple new exciting projects – one is a weekly advice show on youtube. Every Wednesday, Josh answers emails and gives some honest and real helpful hints on how to deal with everyday trials our teens face. And he has the Owl of Wisdom. Who doesn’t love an Owl of Wisdom?!!? Here’s the most recent show…
Josh has another project coming up too – a television show called “Jump Shipp” where it’s not all about his dating life, which was my first thought because I’m really 12, but about helping those who want to leave the job they hate and jump ship to a career they find rewarding and fun. It’s going to be on the Halogen network, and you can read more about it here!
Full circle…
[Psst – have you entered the sweepstakes today? What are you waiting for? It’s right over there! ———>] When I was a young mother.. (You know, yesterday.)

The Amazing Race: Season 15!
It’s back! Another guilty pleasure – who didn’t love last season?! This one Phil says has the “best cast yet” in his opinion, and he’s usually on point, right? It premieres with a 2 hour show on September 27! (OH I LOVE THIS TIME OF YEAR! 🙂 ) Here’s what CBS has to say: Contestants […]
Dancing with the Stars!
Yup, starting September 21st, we have another another guilty pleasure around here – Dancing with the Stars! Len Goodman! Carrie Ann Inaba! Bruno “Tortalini”! (We’ve never called him by his right name. Yes, we’re dorks. 🙂 ) Dancers! People with 42 Left Feet! Proof that anyone can learn anything… or at least fake it till […]
OMG WTF NOWAI!
So, apparently, there’s this big habbabalou circling schools and the internets and all sorts of things right now, concerning a presidential address to the kids in school tomorrow. (Can you tell I don’t watch the news? Heh. I only know because it came through my feed reader and other mom’s are talking about it.) Tomorrow, […]
