Yes I do bother with them. That is one of the ways I try to save a mush money as possible on the items I shop for. Nothing better than getting money back for something that you are going to buy anyway! I treat it like a game. I make a game out of clipping coupons and hitting sales as well. I try to spend the least amount of money possible for my items! |

My favorite is Hidden Valley Ranch made from the packets. Mix the season packets with 1 cup of mayo and 1 cup of milk. I love the way it tastes. My next favorite is Kraft Catalina dressing. I am also a fan of the Kraft Italian dressings. This discussion makes me want a salad! |
 | Shellyann36 responded to a discussion called Do you have a habit of reading? in reading. 4 weeks ago
I love to read. I am a fan of mysteries, romance and some science fiction novels. I am also into self help books and some non-fiction books as well. I have always liked to read since I was small. I can read a novel in one day if I have the time to devote to it. (That is not done lately with the kids, work and of course the home life). I do enjoy reading a book over watching tv. Reading helps to... |

Congratulations on your bundle of joy! I recently had a baby boy in September myself. I know how you feel. His days and nights are mixed up right now and he is wide awake at night and likes to sleep during the day. It takes a while to get accustomed to. I understand you feeling exhausted. Trying to be a mother and still trying to take care of the normal things that women have to take care of ca... |

We did some major downsizing. We rent, so no mortgage but when our lease was up we decided to move to a cheaper place. It is far cheaper than the original place we were in. We have no credit cards nor any loans. Our vehicles are paid off. Our biggest expense monthly is the rent. We also downsized in the fact that we don't go out to eat often. In the past we went out to eat at least once a week.... |

We hang our stockings here at Christmas. I have four boys and the oldest ones are 20,19 & 15. My youngest son is only 2 months old. I always hang the stockings every Christmas and they normally get filled with candies as well as smaller gifts for the boys. |

Congrats on your recent mystery shop. Yes, I have done several mystery shops in the past and it is a great way to earn a little extra pocket cash. I need to check some of my mystery shop companies to see if anything is available for me. $12.00 for 30 minutes of work is good! |
