My Favorite Baby Carrier

July 18, 2012 by Aliesha

I had a friend ask me several months ago what my favorite, go-to baby carrier was, and I had to tell her that I didn’t know!  BUT, that was before I met the Boba Carrier.  🙂

The Boba Carrier is my absolute favorite baby carrier, and if you would like to babywear your newborn, baby, or toddler, it is the carrier I would recommend if you can only buy one!

Read why I love the Boba Carrier over on She {hearts} It today!  (I’m also giving one away!!)

Stocking up on Office Supplies

July 17, 2012 by Aliesha

I love shopping back-to-school sales to stock up on office supplies for the next year!  There’s just no reason to pay full-price for office/school supplies during the year when you can stock up in the summer when they are practically giving stuff away!

I purchased $51.50 worth of supplies (pictured above) for just $7.90 (after sales & rebates*) at Staples!  Here’s what I got:

-computer paper (2 @ $.25/pack after rebate*)
-pens (2 @ $.01/pack)
-pencils (3 @ $.25/pack)
-dry erase markers (2 @ $.50/pack)
-scotch tape (3 @ $1.00/roll)
-school glue (2 @ $.01/ea.)
-glue sticks (1 @ $1.00/pack)
-super glue (1 @ free after rebate*)
-crayons (2 @ $.01/pack)
(I also intended to get markers, but they somehow didn’t get rung up.  I had six kids with me.)
*Staples’ rebates are super easy to complete. You do them online and get a check in the mail!

Have you gotten any great back-to-school deals lately?

Cow Appreciation Day 2012

July 16, 2012 by Aliesha

Cow Appreciation Day at Chick-fil-a has become a tradition in our family.  (See 2010 and 2011.)  True to form, we donned our cow uniforms on Friday and headed to our nearest Chick-fil-a to enjoy a free meal!  

We brought some friends of ours along this year. 

Starbucks was also giving away free drinks on Friday, so we went there as well.

While we were in town I also stocked up on office supplies for cheap, which I’ll share about tomorrow!
