Super Cyber Special

I guess it's time to get (virtually) on board and add my own Cyber Monday special! Lulu is offering a great coupon for 30% off any paper copy (or copies!) of Bootcamp for Lousy Housekeepers, and I'm adding another 30% off, (no coupon code needed). That's a total savings of over $14.00, now through Tuesday, Nov. 27!

Just remember to type in the coupon code DELIRITAS at checkout to receive Lulu's half of the discount. 

Now is a great time to think ahead to New Year's resolutions and get yourself a copy, or pick up a copy for someone you love.

Have a wonderful, restful Lord's Day, and then tomorrow, get back to work!

AMAZING deal at Plan to Eat This Weekend!

I'm not a blogger who sells a lot of other people's stuff. I don't hawk a lot of products just because I got free samples of them. I really have to LOVE and USE a product before I'll hop on here and tell you about it. But you already know that I love Plan to Eat. I'm just one week shy of having used it for two full years now, and I never get tired of telling people, "HEY! Are you tired of traditional menu-planning? Can't seem to stick to your grocery budget? You've got to check this out!" (If you don't remember all my gushing over Plan to Eat, then go HERE to the exhaustive post I wrote about it last year.)

Seriously, Plan to Eat is ABSOLUTELY worth the $39/year I've paid for it the last few years. I probably save more than $39 a month by using this web-based software to easily plan my menu and create an amazingly intuitive shopping list. (And one that goes with me to the store on my iPod - you don't NEED a smartphone with a data plan to get the full benefit of the program!) And because Plan to Eat  tells me what's in my pantry, I don't overbuy or underbuy, I know how much my meals cost (so I can plan according to my budget more efficiently), and I can take my cookbook with me anywhere in the world.

So, when Plan to Eat offers their annual half-off sale, I feel like I need to shout it from the rooftops! 50%-off a yearly subscription is only $1.58 a month for this amazing product. Have you ever gone to the grocery store and forgotten to buy something? Did you have to drive back to get it? Then you probably spent more than $1.58 in gas. Have you ever bought more than you needed because you were guesstimating the amounts on your shopping list? Never used that bunch of lettuce you thought you needed? You might have thrown $1.58 in the trash can.

But don't just take my word for it. This sale starts on Nov. 23, so if you sign up for a free trial today, you'll have a few days to explore it risk-free on your own computer, in your own time, and with your own recipes. (They won't ask you for a credit card number -- I promise!) Use it plan Thanksgiving dinner and see how it fits your family. And then when you love it (and I think you will!), sign up for an annual subscription at half the cost! How great is that? Just get signed up by Nov. 25, because that's when it's back to normal cost.

Use the code givingthanks at checkout to get your discount, or just click on the banner above. If you're in your trial month right now (and you were planning to subscribe), this is the time to make the commitment. And if you are already a subscriber and have been thinking about giving gift subscriptions to Plan to Eat, this is the best opportunity to buy unlimited gift subscriptions at only $15.50 each! (Talk about the gift that keeps on giving all year long!)

Full disclosure: YES, I have an affiliate link, so if you sign up through me, I get a little back each month. (THANK YOU!) But if you don't want to sign up through me, no worries. You should still consider Plan to Eat because it's a wonderful service that will save your family time and money!

I hope you all have a very blessed Thanksgiving.

Sale's Sailing Away...and Kindle Freebies!

Can the month of March be already coming to a close? How is this possible! This month's end signifies something else amazing at our home, which is the first birthday of our sweet baby girl. How fast time has flown by!

The end of March also means, for you, dear Bootcampers, the end of the Spring Sale! You have just five days left to get your copy of Bootcamp for Lousy Housekeepers for 25% off! Don't miss out!

On the subject of books, I thought I would share a few wonderful Kindle freebies with you. Sometimes  free Kindle ebooks stay up for a while, but sometimes they are gone after only one day. (Please do check the price before you click "Buy" -- I can't guarantee that they will still be freebies tomorrow!) How to Declutter Your Home for Simple Living by Judith Turnbridge and Joyful Momma's Guide to Shopping & Cooking Frugally by Kimberly Eddy are both free today on Kindle...catch them while they last! I haven't read either, but they both look interesting, and I have read many of Kimberly Eddy's other books. She is truly an inspiring homemaker!

Speaking of ebooks, don't forget that Bootcamp for Lousy Housekeepers is also available in ebook format! 

Enjoy a a little coffee break from spring cleaning with a motivational read...and then get back to work!
