2 or 3 FREE Plants- Great Mother's Day Gift!

We have been growing some of our own fruit and veggies for 2 years now and I absolutely love the convenience of walking outside and grabbing food right from the yard! Last year we added a apple tree and a peach tree and plan to add a cherry tree this year. So finding this deal got me super excited!! Purchase 2 plants and get 2 FREE all for $9.99 plus shipping and handling! Who doesn't love cherries!

They also have a great deal on Lavender plants- buy 3 get 3 FREE- all for $9.99, just pay shipping and handling!! We bought my mom a lavender bush for Mother's Day last year and it is close to her bedroom window. She can smell the lavender every night while she is sleep, which they say will help you sleep better! That is where I intend to plant ours, we need all the help we can get!! There would make great Mother's Day gifts!

Seems like everyone is cutting back their spending and trying to save more. But it is so important that we continue some things like spending quality time with our significant other. Not only do we deserve it, we NEED it! Madame Deals and Living on Love and Cents have teamed up to bring you Dating on a Dime. Go here to see the prevous posts.

Getting Started 101: Learn Store Policies

Learning How To Shop Each Store: I have added a few helpful tips about each store for you to know how many coupons they take, do they double, have shoppers cards, etc. Walking in to do your first few run with coupons can be overwhelming. It can be a nightmare if you get to the register and do it all wrong. So knowing the stores policies and having a plan, will help make your trip run smooth and be a huge success. Also shopping at a few different stores will help you get the best deals and the most for your money. Just make sure you are not going out of your way to get all of the deals, the gas and time you spend may not make it worth it. (More Store Policies To Come)
