Moe's eWorld

Back in October, I mentioned that if you sign up for Moe's eWorld, you will receive a coupon for a free cup of queso. It turns out they will also send you a coupon for a free entree for your birthday! I was very excited to find this coupon in my inbox; this is definitely an e-mail list that I recommend signing up for :)

Free pint of International Delight creamer



Become a fan of International Delight on Facebook and be one of the first 100,000 people to sign up under the "Holiday Giveaway" tab to receive a coupon for a free pint of any flavor creamer! If the coupon arrives while the holiday flavors are still available, I highly recommend the Chocolate Mint Truffle - it's like having a peppermint mocha anytime you want :)

Freebies at CVS

As many of you know, CVS has become one of my favorite stores lately! If you save your coupons from the Sunday paper and wait for the right Extrabucks offer, you can actually end up making money on some of your purchases and getting other things for free. Rather than attempting to explain this, I'm going to refer my readers to CVS 101 by The Thrifty Mama. Just keep in mind that you can also complete Step 2 online if you don't want to call the 1-800 number. Also check out The Thrifty Mama's post on CVS deals this week. It is a big week for freebies, so if you have a CVS near you then you will definitely want to head over! Happy saving :)

Review: Fisher Price Space Saver High Chair

We registered for the Fisher Price Space Saver High Chair after a friend recommended it. We absolutely love this product! Living in an apartment, we don't have a lot of extra room so it is wonderful to just be able to place it on a regular table chair. We love that it reclines, so our daughter can use it even though she's not quite sitting up on her own yet. It has safety straps to keep baby in place, and it converts into a booster seat for older children. The price is around $55 at various retailers, which is much less than a regular high chair. All the features of a full sizer high chair in half the space and for half the price!

Free Beech Nut Starter Kit

If you have a little one, you can sign up for the Beech Nut eNewsletter and receive a FREE starter kit in the mail. I signed up for this a few weeks ago and it arrived this week, consisting of coupons for a free box of baby cereal and 2 free jars of baby food. They also include printable coupons in their monthly eNewsletters!

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

Somehow, no matter how many bananas we buy, we always end up with exactly 2 that are overripe. What am I supposed to do with 2 black bananas? All the good banana bread recipes call for more than that! Or so I thought :) A few years back, I came across a recipe for PB banana bread and over time I have tweaked it here and there until it morphed into the current version. I've been making this pretty much once a month for about 2 years now, and just recently I discovered that it actually freezes really well, too!

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
3/4 cup peanut butter
2 mashed overripe bananas
1 tsp vanilla
1 3/4 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 cup chocolate chips (I suppose you could try walnuts instead if you prefer them)

*Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
*Grease a 5x9 loaf pan.
*In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter, white sugar, and brown sugar. Add eggs; beat well. Mix in peanut butter, bananas, vanilla, flour, and baking soda. Once well blended, stir in chocolate chips (or walnuts).
*Pour into greased loaf pan and bake at 325 for 70 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
*Remove from pan and place on wire rack to cool.

Enjoy!

$5 off at Hallmark

Hallmark has a $5 off printable coupon available, good on any purchase of $5 or more! This will make for some very cheap stocking stuffers! After you have printed the coupon, hit your browser's back button and you will be able to print it again (limit 2 prints per computer). You probably cannot use both coupons in the same visit, but it doesn't expire until Christmas Eve so you've got time! Happy saving :)

$5 Target Gift Card

Head over to LilaGuide.com and write 10 parent product reviews to receive a $5 Target gift card! This doesn't take very much time, the reviews are quick. I figure if you spend 30 minutes doing this and earn $5, that's a pay rate of $10/hr! You will need to create an account, then click on the "Reviews" tab. Search for a product and when you have found a product you want to review, simply click "Write a review". You will be asked to give the product a star rating and write a few brief sentences about it. It's a simple way to help out other parents and make a few bucks :)
