Sticking Glasses

Don’t you hate when you are at a restaurant and your glass constantly sticks to your paper coaster once the condensation starts to build up?  I know I do!  My friend Michelle taught me this trick and while I was at dinner the other night, it hit me that you might benefit from this simple little trick, too.

All you have to do is shake a little salt on your coaster!  Your glass won’t stick anymore!  Try it!

Magnetic-Screen-Door

 

The warm weather is upon us and I am sure many of you want to throw open your doors and windows to let in a breeze. Before we could afford to screen in our porch, we had to improvise. I bought a hangable screen door to use so we could let in the cool air without letting in the bugs. I paid $20 for mine (this was a few years ago), but today you can get the Auto Open & Close Magnetic Screen Door for $8.98 shipped. Mine lasted 2 years before we screened in the porch and hopefully you will get the same use out of yours.

We also used adjustable window screens for our windows. You can find them at Lowes and Walmart or you can check out these on Amazon.

If you are new to shopping at Rite Aid, be sure to read this tutorial. How to use Rite Aid to “Coupon to Disney”:

  • Save on items that you normally buy. You can usually get free shampoo, conditioner, razors, toothbrushes, etc here. I also find that they have fairly cheap soda too.
  • After you have shopped here a few weeks, you will start to build up your Up Rewards. Rite Aid usually has 1 or 2 ‘money making’ deals a week. By using Up Rewards to pay for items, you essentially eliminate your out of pocket costs and get everything you buy at Rite Aid for ‘free’.
  • Rite Aid has monthly rebates called Single Check Rewards (SCR). Use Up Rewards to pay for the items that are eligible for the SCR. When the check comes from Rite Aid each month, deposit it into your fund!
  • Use your Up Rewards to pay for items that are eligible for rebates. When the check arrives, deposit it into your fund!
  • Use your Up Rewards to pay for items that you were going to pay cash for. Take the cash you were going to spend and deposit it into your fund!
  • Be sure to read the Getting Started Couponing to Disney guide!

Create your personal shopping list: Click on the box next to each item you would like to purchase and they will appear on the My List on the right side. After you add all the items you would like to purchase, click on My List and print your custom shopping list.

Be sure to check out all the Rite Aid deals !
