A Beautiful Life is Celebrated!

October 28, 2011 By Leave a Comment

For those of you who check my site regularly, you may have noticed that my site has been unusually quiet this week.

I found out on Monday that a friend and classmate of mine lost her 4-year battle with cancer.  She was an inspiration and friend to many.  I was incredibly blessed to have been given the opportunity to spend quite a bit of time with her the past 10 months as we just wrapped up our class reunion (we were the planning committee).  :)   She has been an inspiration in my life and I’m sad that she is gone.  However, I am relieved that she has been set free and has a new body in heaven.

I have been busy helping with the preparations for her “Celebration of Life” services.  It brings me great joy to be able to give back in this way – as she gave me so much over the course of her amazing 28-years.

I will be back on Saturday bringing you the Weekly Coupon Match-Up for Marsh along with some other *HOT* deals!

I hope you are having a wonderful Fall Day!

You’re Thrifty Housewife,
Lauren

Mail-In Rebate Roundup: Crayola, L’Oreal, Lysol + MORE!

October 25, 2011 By Leave a Comment

If you are like me, then the thought of a Mail-In Rebate makes you crazy!  I would much rather get the instant credit than pay full price for the item, mail in a form and my receipt to the company, and wait for my check.

However, over the past year I’ve had a change of heart.  I felt that my lack of patience and “I want the credit NOW” attitude was me giving into the ways, thoughts and actions of our society.  Our society is all about “me me me” and “I want it NOW”.  This is why Americans have so much debt.  We can’t stand to wait and save our money to make a purchase.  As I thought about it, these questions came to mind:

  1. What’s the harm in waiting?
  2. Am I still getting this item for FREE or at a significant discount?
  3. Do I want to live a life centered on “me”?
  4. Do I want my kids to learn this behavior and live their life this way?

As I pondered my answers to these questions, I decided I wanted to be different.  It’s all about baby steps.  And a baby step for me is to stop getting annoyed by Mail-In Rebates.  After all…I’m still getting that item for FREE (or close to)!  :)

Well, now that I got that off my chest…   :)
