Do you have an old carseat and do not know what to do w/ it ?

Here's a thought.....

Toys 'R' Us launches Cash for Clunkers, baby-style

Add cash for cribs to the stack of programs modeled after the government's car swap program.

Toys "R" Us is offering customers the chance to trade-in used cribs, car seats and other children's items in exchange for a store discount.

The three-week program begins Friday and ends Sept. 20. Customers will receive a 20% discount on selected items and there is no limit to the number of products to be turned in.

"The Great Trade-In" event was spurred by a lukewarm response to numerous high-profile recalls on baby products, the Los Angeles Times reports. Even though bargains abound for second-hand cribs, strollers and high chairs, the toy giant cautioned that evolving safety standards, missed safety recalls and the inability to know a product's true history can be a serious hazard for children.

"When a grandmother pulls an old crib out of the garage, when a mom puts her child's car seat for sale online ... these transactions can potentially pass on a dangerous product," the director of public affairs for the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission told the San Francisco Chronicle.

The toy giant is limiting the program to its U.S. stores but may offer Canadian customers the same deal depending its success, according to Canwest News Service.

How time flies.....

Posting for me this week may be kind of slow. I have been trying to get things ready for back to school and this week is my daughter's b-day. Then my husband and i just hit our 10th wedding anniversary. 

It's hard to believe my oldest baby is going to be 9. So yes, how time does fly.

This week i am trying to get all the school clothes ready, meals bought etc. I also am cleaning, organizing and prepping for the b-day.

Another mention about time flying, um well i have a b-day next week as well. I'll be hitting the 30 mark. Some crazy feeling haunted me one day when i thought about it. I just had a brief panic attack and thought..... my life was 1/2 way over. Maybe i should think of it as 1/2 way accomplished??

I just wanted to give you an FYI about posts upcoming this week.

EQ School of Hair Design = Good Value

Last night i went to have my hair cut, i normally just go to Master Cuts because there is 1 person there who can cut my hair decent.

I have tried many many places here and no one can cut my hair to my liking. No i am not that picky. My hair is really really thick. 

So i went to the EQ School of Hair Design in Council Bluffs, IA. There down on Broadway. Very friendly students & instructers there. They were happy to have someone like my hair there. They cut off 6 inches and then we layered it and thinned it. 

I felt bad for the poor girl having to cut my hair. I was there at 6:30 and she was done at 7:30 Not the quickest so be prepared if your in a hurry. I was not and i told the girl that as well. I would much rather have someone take that long cutting my hair than to get it done in 20 min and i would hate it.

It turned out pretty good. She thinned it a little too much but who cares, it's summer and it will grow back in no time. My cost was $6.99 then i tipped her. I really reccomend giving them a try. The gal i had her name was Jessie. If you click the title of this thread it will take you to there site.

I will update later with receipt.

I went to Bakers just to get hair stuff and came out with a lot more. I didn't spend wisely there oh well, we live we learn. I did meet a new lady there i had not met before.

She was very nice and gave me some coupons for some awesome Yoplait parfaits and a sample. Thank you Linda and i do hope you get to start couponing and enjoy it. If you have any questions please feel free to ask. I am always glad to help someone else save there hard earned $$

These things taste great! They taste like a pudding and have alot of flavor. We will be buying more. We usually like almost everything Yoplait makes anyway, except for the whips Blah! Also the Yoplait coupon loaded to your bakers card gives you an extra $.50 cents off.

Price was $2.49 -$1 coupon that Linda the sample gal gave me =$1.49-$.50 coupon loaded to card =$.99 cents!!!

I never got to post my OOP. It was $11.99 This will be deducted from my budget at the top of page.
