This Frugal Family

Dumbo has always been on of my favorite movies, and now my 8 year old watches it with me.  He’s not a big “movie” fan, and is usually playing Fortnite, but now he is interested in Dumbo.  This is truly a great “Family” film.  My 22 year old, daughter sat down and watched it with my son & me. This truly is a great film.  Tim Burton & Disney did it again.  They are setting the score high for their next film!  I loved watching Dumbo over and over, but I always have. Check out the below for an Animal Cracker recipe, and how to juggle. These two things come in handy every time we watch Dumbo.  The kids love the Sprinkled Animal Crackers, and trying to Juggle.  These two things have brought us a lot of entertainment, and joy.  And, watching Dumbo is an added bonus. You’ll be able to pick up the Blu ray, DVD & Digital copy starting June 25, anywhere these items are sold.  Don’t wait, get there early, they will sell out. With the Blu ray, there are bonus extras: Deleted Scenes Easter Eggs on Parade Clowning Around Bloopers Behind the scense look at the…

You can already enjoy Cinderella on Digital, as of Tuesday, June 18.  But, if you want it on Blu-Ray, or DVD, it’ll be available this coming Tuesday, June 25. This is amazing.  One of my all time favorite Disney Princesses, coming to Blu-Ray, with over 2 hours of bonus footage.  I am in aww.  I have loved Cinderella since a very young age.  Thie is an iconic film, with lots of love by many generations.  My daughter, who is 22, loves Cinderella as well.  We just sat down and watched it the other night.   Cinderella is a story about a young lady, who is taken advantage of by the Step’s- in her life.  She has a fairy godmother, who puffs in a beautiful gown, and sends her to the ball, where her step-sisters are already creeping on the prince.  But, guess what?  In the end, Cinderella shows them.   This is a must watch for the entire family.  My 8 year old, son, was even intrigued.  Which, he hardly sits and watches anything for too long.  That is starting to change since he turned 8, but I think he wanted to be the prince. You can purchase Cinderella, starting…

I have a friend that is getting ready to have a baby.   They are being induced on June 27.  So, as you can imagine, this is a busy time for her.  That’s why I turned to Baby Magic, to help her bring the baby into the world.  Baby Magic is a wonderful company, that has all the baby’s basic needs covered.  From lotion to wipes, and even Hydrogel Patches.  This is amazing!  I remember, 8 years ago, having my little guy, and using Baby Magic, too. I love this Hydrogel Patch.  It’s great for fevers & overheating, sunburn, discomfort, and even dry skin.  They will love this patch, as new parents.  It’ll bring comfort to their little bundle of joy, which will in turn, be comforting to the parents. I also love the 3 in 1 wipes.  They have a combination of Chamomile, aloe and vitamin E.  There’s 72 wipes in the container, which will make changing easy.  They are also free from fragrance, alcohol, dyes, SLS, oils, parabens, and phthalates.  These are truly sent from above. Their lotions, and baby wash are a gift too.  We used them all the time, with Jacob, and occasionally still do, especially over summer break,…

I don’t often admit this, but I’ve had halitosis since I was a kid.  People used to make fun of me all the time.  I’d brush my teeth 3, maybe 4, times a day; but nothing helped.  The Honest Hemp Company has changed that for me.  My breath is so fresh when I use this CBD Nano spray.  And, I love the way I feel afterwards.  I don’t feel a high, but I feel a weight lifted off my chest.  I do suffer from bipolar, depression, and anxiety disorders, so this has been a big help for me. Features ethanol, glycol, natural peppermint, and 160mg of premium US-grown, water-soluble hemp CBD extract.  This product would be great, even without bad breath.  You would just get the splash of cool, before feeling relief from anxiety.  It’s not a miracle worker, but it’s enough to feel relaxed, a bit.  It’s a great feeling, to not worry all the time. The Super Breath Blast is even known to kill the “meanest of hangovers” in as little as 5 minutes.  That’s so great to hear! *Honest Hemp* is a wellness company based in Boulder, Colorado and Los Angeles, California.  Our products are a natural alternative for…

I’ve recently come across a great product called Pura d’or.  I have thinning hair, and they have a formula for me.  It works magnificently.  Thinning hair used to be a problem, but not any more.  And, it’s inexpensive, especially if you get the monthly subscription. There are many formulas, of shampoos & conditioners, but the thinning hair formula is the right one for me, and I’m completely sold on this product.  Pura d’or has made me feel young again, hair wise.  I can’t get over how well it really works. Pura d’or Hair Thinning Therapy System is really great.  It works for all types of hair, at any time of the day.  My husband has been using it for about 3 weeks, and he loves it too, because he also has thinning hair.  I’ve gone to Target recently, and picked up another supply of Pura d’or, so we will have it, when our current bottles run out.  This is a truly great product, and can be bought locally, which is really cool. For the Hair Thinning Therapy System, here’s it’s description: Get to the Root of the Problem. It all starts with a healthy scalp. This invigorating blend of organic extracts…

We love Welch’s Fruit Snacks, in our family.  My 8 year old would take them, everyday, to school.  Now, my 22 year old, takes them everyday to work & school.  She’s teaching this Summer, so this is a great snack for her during lunch.  She loves them, as much as my 8 year old does.  We have been a fan of Welch’s for many years. Have you tried the Blueberry Fruit N Yogurt Snacks?  They are absolutely delightful.  So delicious, and in just a small snack.  They also come in Strawberry, and Cherry.  These make a great mid-day snack for anyone.  I snack on them, myself, and love them.  I can’t get enough.  I’ve been buying them constantly.  I do limit myself to one pack a day, so they will last a little longer.  I also have 8 year old fingers grabbing them up too. We are having a huge family cookout for the 4th of July, and this is a perfect snack to put out for the kids.  They will love them.  I can’t wait to share them with everyone. Welch’s Fruit Snacks come in 10 varieties.  You really have to try any of them, and you will be…

  Let’s face it. We purchase insurance for the unpredictable, but insurance companies use statistics to predict the probability of the unpredictable. And we can all agree that the statistical likelihood of a collision, hitting a wild animal, or getting a flat tire increases the more miles you drive. That’s why we have collected tips to add more protection for you and your family or friends during your 13,699-mile journey.  Before packing your bags, hiring a dog sitter, and piling everyone in, consider some of these tips to ensure a safe, secure, and enjoyable road trip. A little investing up front can go a long way when the unpredictable happens, and while on vacation no less. Decrease your Deductibles When you first purchased your car insurance policy, you were probably most interested in keeping your monthly bill as low as possible but still get reasonable coverage. One tactic to reduce your premium is to increase your deductible. The deductible is what you will pay out of pocket before insurance coverage kicks in. If you are traveling on a budget, no one wants to dip into savings to pay a $1,000 deductible in case of a collision or hitting an animal….

New Hampshire resident Joyce Dales — founder of Buzzagogo and inventor of 100% natural cold, flu and allergy nasal swab remedy Cold Bee Gone < https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=2475264-1&h=1902111765&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.coldbeegone.com%2F&a=Cold+Bee+Gone> — was notified Friday that her company was selected from thousands of applicants to pitchat Walmart’s 2019 Open Call Event, June 18 through 19 at Walmart’s headquarters in Bentonville, Arkansas. The Walmart Open Call is an annual event that allows small companies and entrepreneurs to have an opportunity to pitch to Walmart wholesale buyers. This year is the 6th annual open call event and on average 100 small companies will succeed at bringing their products to Walmart’s shelves. Joyce invented Cold Bee Gone several years ago to help protect her newly adopted daughter who required open heart surgery due to a defect caused by Agent Orange. She was determined to help her daughter recover as naturally as possible and thus developed the special remedy — a unique blend of homeopathic ingredients, including raw active Manuka honey and essential oils. What began as sharing the remedy with family and friends evolved into a product that has gone to the mainstream market across the nation. With the help of the New Hampshire Small Business Development Center,…
