New Target Mobile Phone Coupons!

Have you heard about this? Target now has store coupons available on your mobile phone!

You can sign up HERE and read the details. Basically you'll receive text messages monthly with links to the coupons. Simply pull the coupon up on your phone, have the cashier scan the barcode, and voila! Mobile savings.

Reader Email: Meal Plans & Recipes

"I am not the best cook and have a really hard time coming up with lunch and dinner ideas for my family. I was just wondering on how you come up with yours -- being creative while spending so little. Thank you for all your hard work and wisdom!"

Dear Danielle,

I have a hard time coming up with ideas for dinners as well. I love trying new recipes, but I don't always have the time (or money) for fancy things. Here are some resources I use to plan meals:

• Recipezaar.com -- At Recipezaar you can type in a single ingredient or many ingredients (either ones you have on hand or something you'd like to make a meal out of) and it will come back with thousands of user-submitted and user-reviewed recipes containing those items. I've never tried a highly rated recipe from this site that I didn't love! They're all printable and free, so you can slip them right into your recipe binder for safe keeping.

• Utah Food Co-Op -- This is a community-run food co-op. Place an order for a full, half, or harvest share once per month and pick it up on delivery day at your local site. All food is locally grown and very fresh, at less than half retail cost. Go to www.foodco-op.net to join (it's free!) and place an order. Then once you receive your food, use Recipzaar to find things to make with your share from that month!

• Slow Cooker Cookbooks -- I have a few slow-cooker cookbooks (Fix It and Forget It) that I love, as well as the blog www.crockpot365.blogspot.com (which is now a book -- Make It Fast, Cook It Slow). I've discovered that crockpot recipes are fast & simple, and make almost anything taste great.

• Blogs -- I love blog-hopping and seeing ways that others feed their family simply and cheaply. I love when others post their recipes, so that's why I try to post mine a little. When I find a good one, I bookmark it so I can try it out later. Here are a few that I like: jane4girls, Sunday Baker, Food for Thought.

I hope that helps you a little, Danielle! Good luck with your meal planning!

Slavetosave Giveaway: L'Oreal Lash Boosting Technology {closed}

Slavetosave Giveaway: L'Oreal Lash Boosting Technology

As a member of BzzAgent, I received a kit containing the L'Oreal lash boosting technology system in December. I was really excited when I received this, because I'd heard about other lash boosting technologies, and they were all too expensive for me to ever shell out the cash for! This kit retails for $24.99, so it's very affordable. It contains a serum that you apply to your lashes as well as the base of your lashes, every day. It also contains a L'Oreal two-step mascara to be applied over the serum.

The system claims to transform your natural lashes in 4 weeks. Their research states that after 4 weeks:

• 71% of women say: “It seems I have more lashes”
• 75% of women say: “My lashes seem thicker”
• 78% of women say: “I have less lash loss during makeup removal”
• 81% of women say: “My lashes seem to be in better condition”

I decided to give it a try! Here is a picture of my lashes the first day I tried the system:

{Photo Day 1}

And here is a picture of my lashes after using the system faithfully every day for four weeks:

{Photo day 28}

I would say that I definitely think my lashes appear longer and thicker. I've noticed a big difference especially on those mommy-days where I don't get any makeup on. I'll occasionally catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror and think, "huh, I look better without makeup than I used to!" And I think it's because my lashes are thicker and more noticeable!


Buy it!
Purchase the L'Oreal Lash Boosting Technology kit for $24.99.

Slavetosave Giveaway: Bravado Designs! {closed}

Slavetosave Giveaway: Bravado Designs!

Now that I've been nursing for a few months, I'm convinced that the people at Bravado really know what they're doing! I've tried on other bras to see how they compare, and no one can touch the quality and comfort of their bras.


5 Reasons why I love Bravado:
1. If you have boobs, they have your size! Trust me. And most stores don't have my size.
2. They carry bras for all stages of nursing. The ones that grow with you for the early stages are genius!
3. I've ordered a bra online from them twice now, and their sizing and sizing helps are fabulous. You can order with confidence.
4. Their overall design is easy to use and super functional. The last thing you want when you've got a starving, fussy baby on your lap is a complicated bra.
5. Their bras are the most comfortable around. I dare you to go try one on! You won't be disappointed.

In my mind, Bravado bras are worth their weight in gold! Seriously.

Slavetosave's Review
Bravado was kind enough to send me the Sublime nursing bra in Black Cherry to review! I usually prefer underwire bras on a day-to-day basis because I like the support they offer, but the Sublime gives you a surprisingly good amount of support and shape for a non-wired bra, and is still very comfortable to wear. It has Bravado's signature clips, which I love because they can be undone with one hand. It's also a very well-made, high-quality bra like all of the other Bravado bras I have tried. The ruffle and lace detailing on the bra is very pretty and feminine. It's a nice change from how you usually feel when nursing!


I only have one qualm about this bra. There is a seam that runs diagonally down the cup of the bra, as well as some ruffle and lace on the cup. The seam and the ruffles can be seen under almost any shirt I wear, and it makes me look "lumpy." The only tops I can wear with this bra to get a smooth finish are heavy sweaters. That being said, I still love this bra's fit, support, and functionality, and I wear it almost daily!


Buy it!
Purchase the Sublime Nursing Bra for $45.00.

Win it!
Bravado has offered one lucky the same Sublime Nursing Bra I received!

January Spending Totals

I made my goal by the skin of my teeth this month! Yowser. My goal was to spend under $100/month this year...so does $100.55 count? Lol.

I tried to look over my spreadsheet and see where the big purchases were. At the very beginning of January, I bought a few pre-made meals to have in the freezer for emergency dinners (like Bertolli and Contessa). Thankfully, they're still there as emergency meals because I've been doing well with the meal planning. But they were expensive because I bought them at regular price, so that took a big chunk of my total.

I've been drinking lactaid milk (because the little chica gets VERY spitty when I eat a lot of dairy), and it's about $4 for a half-gallon. Yikes! Hopefully she outgrows this soon.

I also bought a few big things that I only buy once or twice a year (like a big tub of blue cheese at Sam's Club), as well as some meat that I stocked the freezer with. I also made a few make-n-freeze meals, so hopefully eating those in the next few weeks and months will keep my totals lower for those months.


Spent in January: $100.55
Saved in January: $294.71 (74%)


How did everyone else do?

Make & Freeze Classic Lasagna

Classic Lasagna

(adapted from Fix, Freeze, Feast)
Makes 4 entrees, 4-6 servings each

Ingredients
1 48-oz container cottage cheese (about 6 cups)
4 eggs, lightly beaten
3 cups shredded Parmesan cheese
13 cups Basic Red Sauce (below)
24 lasagna noodles, uncooked
2 pounds lean ground beef, cooked and drained
8 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
4 12.5" x 6.5" x 3" foil pans
plastic wrap
aluminum foil


Basic Red Sauce Recipe
(Makes approximately 10 cups)

Ingredients
1 12-oz can tomato paste
2 cups hot water
2 Tbsp dried parsley
2 Tbsp minced onion
1 Tbsp minced garlic (about 9 cloves)
1 Tbsp sugar
2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp dried basil
1/2 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1 28-oz can tomato sauce
1 28-oz can diced tomatoes

Mix tomato paste and hot water in a large bowl until smooth. Stir in parsley, onion, garlic, sugar, salt, bail, oregano and thyme. Add tomato sauce and diced tomatoes; mix well. Do not cook.

{Basic red sauce}

Step 1:
Put the baby in the front carrier.

{Aaaaaand, she's out.}

Step 2:
Combine cottage cheese, eggs, and 2 cups of the Parmesan in a large bowl.

{I'm a doe-head and grabbed Ricotta instead of cottage cheese at Sam's Club. But it still worked great and tasted delicious.}

Step 3:
Lay baking dishes before you and spread 1/4 cup red sauce in the bottom of each.

{Layering the pans}

Step 4:
Assemble all four lasagnas at once in layers in the following order:

Layer 1
2 uncooked noodles
1 cup red sauce
1/2 cup cooked ground beef
3/4 cup cottage cheese mixture
1/2 cup mozzarella

Layer 2
2 uncooked noodles
1 up red sauce
1/2 cup cooked ground beef - or whatever remains
3/4 cup cottage cheese mixture - or whatever remains
1/2 cup mozzarella

Layer 3
2 uncooked noodles
1 cup red sauce - or whatever remains
1 cup mozzarella
1/4 cup parmesan

{The finished lasagnas}

Step 5:
Wrap each dish entirely in plastic wrap, then top with foil, label and freeze.

{I made 3 to freeze and 1 for dinner that night}

Cooking instructions
Remove foil and plastic wrap from baking dish, then replace foil. Cook thawed dish for 45 minutes at 375 (1 hour if frozen), then remove foil and continue baking until bubbling and cheese is browned.


Cost Breakdown
Ricotta cheese - $4.87 (Sam's Club)
4 Eggs - $0.49 ($1.49/12 at Ream's)
4 packages Kraft shreds - $3.96 ($0.99 each @ Smith's)
Lasagna noodles - $2.09 (Ream's)
2 pounds ground beef - $5.03 (Smith's)
Tomato paste - $1.55 (Ream's)
Garlic - $0.39 (Ream's)
Tomato sauce - $1.95 (Ream's)
Diced tomatoes - $2.15 (Ream's)
= $22.48/24 servings == $0.93 per serving

That's a heck of a lot cheaper than eating out, am I right? Tastier, too. This meal would be even cheaper if you purchased the ground beef, noodles, tomatoes, etc during a stock-up sale (instead of buying them spur of the moment like I did).
