Bargains for 10-7-09

“Craigslist” for moms is here! But BETTER!
www.handmedowns.com, the classifieds site for moms.
- Do you have a bugaboo in your garage and don't know where to sell?
- Do you have expensive cribs but you are babies are now grown up?
- Exersaucers? Toys? Highchairs? And undersized clothes?
On handmedowns.com, you can buy or sell your new and gently used baby + kids stuff. It is more organized and trusted than other online resale site, its recall list prevents the sale of recalled goods

This tip comes from Leah Griffin
• A couple of weeks ago you sent information about the ‘Treasure Box’. Where you order $30 worth of food at the beginning of the month and about 2 weeks later on a Saturday morning you pick up abut $120 worth of frozen food. Well I tried it out and it is amazing! I was busy, so I sent my husband to pick it up. He said it was very slick, he drove up, showed them his receipt and they put a big box in his trunk and he drove away! It is so great that we are going to order 2 this month. 1 box will easily feed a family for a week, but since we only have our kids on the weekends, 2 should be plenty for the month. We only have to fill in with bread, milk and fresh produce (see below for my fresh produce bargains).
The food is name brand
It is all very good
It is normal stuff we eat, (except the really big apple pie! It was way above normal!)
Anyone can take advantage of this service (not just poor people, or if you’re having a hard time, or without a job) (watch the video on the bottom right of the website home page.)
There are pick-up locations all around the county

The order/pick-up schedule for the next couple of months.
October 10-11-09 10-24-09
November 11-08-09 11-21-09
December 12-06-09 12-19-09
For those who maybe didn’t receive it, here’s the url again.

FRESH PRODUCE:
El Metate market 817 W 19th St ,Costa Mesa , (949) 646-9362
on 19th street in Costa Mesa has the best produce prices in town! Yeah, I know, everyone loves Henry’s, but they just have a couple of things on sale to get you in there and the rest is fairly over priced. But at El Metate their prices are always low and when they have a sale you feel like you are stealing the stuff. Last week I bought, 3 kinds of lettuce, celery, cabbage, carrots, green onions, brown onions, bananas, a pineapple and a couple of potatoes all for under $8.00. They had watermelon on sale a couple of weeks ago, a really big one (almost 10 lbs) cost me $1.79, not per pound, for the entire thing!

So, combine the savings of the Treasure Box, with the great deals at El Metate we are reducing our food bill by 2/3rds!
