A Young Wife’s Tale

Here’s some information about the Sam’s Club Pink Promotion:

Purchase specially-marked General Mills products like Cheerios and Fiber One 90 Calorie Brownies at your local Sam’s Club and help decide how half of that contribution will be donated by voting at PinkTogether.com from now until April 14, 2012. General Mills’ donations will be divided between two important Komen programs: the Treatment and Assistance Program, which assists women in securing care they otherwise may not be able to afford, and Prevention Research, which helps unlock the keys to preventing breast cancer. Voting results will be announced on Mother’s Day 2012.

Here are some of the deals I got during the Cart Buster event:

Peanut M&Ms $.50 – I got two packages because I had a coupon for $.75 off two! That means I spent $.25 for two packages of M&Ms!

One of the things you should know about me and my family is that we eat a LOT of fiber. As in, we have to be careful not to consume too much.

Brother #3 was up late recently. He didn’t want to wake anyone else up as he made a midnight snack, so he helped himself to a bowl of cereal without turning on the lights to find out what kind of cereal he was munching on. The cereal was so good that he ate another bowl. Keep in mind Brother #3 eats broccoli every single day. The next morning he woke up with a stomach ache and spent more time in the bathroom at work than his co-worker with a UTI!

Yes, Brother #3 had two huge bowls of Fiber One Cereal. It really does taste that good! My favorite is the Honey Clusters, and I like to sprinkle the Original Bran Cereal over my yogurt like granola. Fiber One’s Raisin Bran Clusters are yummy, too! Just be careful not to eat too much.
