My daughter just the other day spilled ALL the “bubble juice” on the grass while playing and was soooo sad that she couldn’t blow bubbles anymore.

I started searching for some “bubble juice” recipes to whip some up real quick and I found an incredible website! These recipes are CHEAP and would make for some fun family activities!

Add both ingredients to spray bottle, swoosh together and you’re ready to spray that shower clean! Easy and cheap!

For my family of three I allow us $100.00 every two weeks, and that includes groceries and toiletries.

A Coupon Fairy is someone that leaves coupons on products in store, so that a stranger who might be shopping for that item can be surprised by the coupon and get that item for cheaper than expected!

It’s easy to do, just simply take coupons that you might not use, go to the store and place them next the the item, or tape the coupon to the item. This is something that anyone can do and it’s an easy way to give back to the community.

***Rules: I know there is no referee to keep people in line, but if you are not going to use the item, then please leave the coupon on the item and don’t buy it. Also, please don’t just take the coupons off the products and steal someone else’s glory.  Let’s all be nice and enjoy the fun together!
