Get your Juice on

Good Monday morning to ya! I'm really not that happy about it, but I'm trying. It takes me about half of the day to really get going on a Monday. However, it is a beautiful day and it's so much fun when you can have a tasty treat for half the price. Don't you think?

Jamba Juice is having a BOGO event until July 12, 2009. What's BOGO you say? Well, it's Buy one Get one FREE. YAY, Free is what we like to hear.

Summer is Here!

For those who live in Salt Lake, we have been waiting for this day. Summer technically began last week, but it is really starting today because our local weather station people have told us that there will be no more rain for a while. Hallelujah!! So, now that summer is here, it is probably wise to break out the shorts and swimsuits- if you have them. If you don't, check out the deals at Old Navy. I found some cute shorts for $10 and swimsuits for $8-$10.

Yankee Doodle Dandy

Well, I searched and searched for some good deals today, but they were few and far between..... except that the Yankee Candle Company is having a Semi Annual Clearance Sale with some good prices on all your home, car, office, closet, or anywhere fragrance needs.

I love Yankee candles. They truly are the best smelling candles around, and they make fantastic gifts as well.

Deal Wednesday

It's that time again. Freebie Wednesday at Arby's. Today you can get a Regular Roast Beef sandwich for Free with a purchase of a soft drink. That's a pretty good lunch for under 2 bucks. Can't beat it.

Also, as an update to my post on Saturday. I used the Redbox code and it worked like a charm. The code* is good until 8/31/2009, so there is plenty of time to use it and get a free flick to enjoy with your friends/family.

Let the Sunshine In!

Well, it's officially Summer 2009. The season of outdoor pool parties, bbq's, and sunburns. I have very fair skin and have had my fair share of pretty bad burns in the past. These days I don't go out of the house without sunscreen, but back in the day I wasn't as wise. I thought I would share with you the very best remedy that I have tried for a painful sunburn. One word: POTATO

It may sound a little folk mediciny, and it is. But, it really works. The most effective way I have found to use this remedy is to grate a potato on a cheese grater and then put the shavings and the juice on your burn. It will take the heat out of the burn quickly and leave you feeling much cooler and comfortable.

"Reel"Savings

Are you a homebody? Do you have a hard time leaving your kids with a babysitter? Do you have a hard time forking over $40 dollars just to go see a movie and get popcorn? I would have to say that I would say yes to, well, all of the above. No need to be ashamed if you are in the same boat. Tonight, you can have a fun evening at home watching a movie with your family or your best pals for a fraction of the cost of going out. Because.......

Red Box is offering FREE DVD rentals when you text FIT to 414141. They will quickly respond with a code that can be redeemed at any red box kiosk.

And for your movie snacking pleasure, here is a recipe for Homemade Microwave Popcorn. I make this all of the time as a midday snack.

Ingredients
1/4 cup of popping corn (generally around 0.99 per bag and can make up to 50 bags of microwave popcorn)
2 teaspoons of vegetable oil
1-2 tbsp of melted butter
salt

Tools you will need
scotch tape
brown paper bag
Microwave

Pour the popcorn into the paper bag then add the vegetable oil. Fold the top of the bag over twice, but don't make the folds too big or the popcorn won't have room to pop. Tape the folds down with scotch tape. Microwave as you would normally do microwave popcorn (2-3 minutes listening for when the pops stop for about 3 seconds in between). Take out of the microwave and put into a bowl. Toss with melted butter and sprinkle with salt.
