Sparkling Clean Microwave

Have you ever been disgusted by your microwave? You go to heat some yummy food up and lose your appetite by the smell and the food caked on? Mine usually smells like pizza or soup, or when it's really bad, both.

Here's what I do to solve the problem. Take a little bowl and put about 1/4-1/2 cup Lemon Juice in it, depending on how much of a disaster it is. Microwave for about a minute and a half. Then, take wet paper towl and wipe away the grease and food. This usually takes away all of the mess AND makes it smell super good. Lemonie-fresh!!

I used this technique today. It was so bad that I had to take the "scrubby-part" of the sponge and get some dish soap on it to help get the worst of the job done.

Not too bad, though. It took about 10 minutes and I was done!

Bountiful Kid 2 Kid

The Bountiful Kid 2 Kid at 273 W. 500 S. is having a "Fill the Bag" sale. It goes from Friday the 26th through Wednesday the 31st. A bag costs $8. Last time someone was able to fit 29 things in the bag, a total value of $80! Check it out! It'll be fun and we can grab some great deals. The items that we can grab are the Clearance Items. We'll probably want to get there as soon as we can as to get a good selection. I bet things get pretty picked over.

Coupon Conference -- Saturday

On Saturday I attended a Coupon Conference put on by Melea at freebies2deals.com. It was GREAT! It was her first Coupon Conference and she did SUCH a great job.

Some great things I learned that I didn't know before:

In Utah you don't have to buy beer to get the Beer Rebate. You can find a stack of them in the aisle where the beer is sold. Or, you can go to the Customer Service desk and ask for one. Right now Smith's has a beer rebate for $10 off when you buy $20 worth of shrimp or other seafood. That means 50 % off on something that you NEVER find coupons for. The rebate also includes some spices.

So -- CHECK IT OUT! Ask for beer rebates at the store if you can't find them. This is one of the great things about living in Utah. Might as well use it while we can!

The Beginning

I am starting this blog because I enjoy finding amazing deals. And, even more than finding them for myself, I love sharing what I learn with my family and friends. The past few months I have enjoyed searching for deals and learning more about ways to live on less and make our money stretch to the maximum value. I hope you enjoy reading this blog as much as I enjoy writing it. I will probably be the only one viewing it, but I will love it for myself. I hope that more people can follow these amazing deals and cash in on some fun life!
