One Hundred Dollars a Month

I am your typical housewife living in high maintenance suburbia. I have a handsome husband, 2 kids and a flock of pet chickens. I try and feed my family with $100 a month. With the help of coupons, gardening and bartering I am able to squeeze the most out of our grocery budget and still manage to have a little fun along the way.

Hey, have you heard the news?  Right now you can get a $30 voucher to Shari’s Berries for only $15 from Living Social.  This is a GREAT alternative to sending flowers for the holidays.  We have enjoyed these yummy berries before as well as sent them to my parents and in-laws.

How would you like to win one dozen chocolate dipped strawberries?  I can send them to YOU or someone on your Christmas list.

Just think, if you send them to someone on your list they’ll be like “Oh Lola {or whatever your name is} the chocolate dipped strawberries you sent were delicious, thank you so much.” And then they’ll tell all their friends how awesome you are for sending them berries instead of a wax candle in the shape of Elvis.

Here is how to enter to win the 1 Dozen Chocolate Dipped Strawberries: 

All you have to do to enter this giveaway is leave a comment below and let us know : If you were a rock star and could request 2 special items be placed in your dressing room, what would they be?

I think I’d ask for a disco light* and 542 green M&M’s.

1 entry per person/ip address. If you cheat, you will totally be disqualified.

This giveaway ends 12/16/12 @ 5 am PST and the winners will be announced in the 12/16/12 edition of Mornings with Mavis.  You will have 48 hours to claim your prize. If you do not claim your prize within 48 hours of the winner being announced I will send the berries to my Mother In Law.

Good Luck, I hope you win!

Oh Baby!  How would you like to win an gorgeous baby gift set from EllaJean.com?

This adorable giveaway is valued at $116.00 and all items are machine washable, and Made in the USA.

A little about Ella Jean –

When owner Robin Riggs was expecting her first child, she had a hard time finding accessories for the baby that were both stylish AND affordable. She wanted something that was cute for baby, but was also a reflection of HER personal style! So she decided to make her own! She found some beautiful designer fabric, combined it with soft & snuggly minky fabric that the baby would love, and the first Ella Jean blanket was born!

She named the company after her daughter, and the rest is history!

Here is what’s included in this giveaway:

Baby Blanket:  This blanket combines designer cotton fabric with soft & luxurious minky dot fabric, resulting in a baby blanket that’s both stylish and super soft!  Sure to become a favorite for both Mom & Baby! $46

Soft Blocks:  Soft Blocks are made with coordinating designer print fabric and soft minky. Made to stimulate baby’s senses. Great for nursery decor, and fun to play with too! Stuffed with soft foam. Blocks are 5 inches, 4 inches and 3 inches square. $30

Ell Jean Bib:  Featuring designer print on one side and soft, absorbent chenille on the other. This bib is a great size for both babies and toddlers; longer and wider than the typical bib to offer better protection. Snap closure at the top. $16

Ella Jean Burp Cloth Set:  Ella Jean burp cloths are made with designer print on one side and soft, absorbent chenille on the other side. Two coordinating prints per set. $24
