Want to go MckLinky Blog Hopping?

What kind of blog reader are you? Do you hop around randomly when you have some free time looking for new stuff? I've found that one of the best way to find some new sites is to Hop Along on a Blog Hop because the people that linkup are from random niches and you can find some great content for very little effort.

I've hopped on the MckLinky Blog Hop this week so, click around for some new reads and hop along with me if you have a blog.  This month’s theme is Blog Introductions so, here’s a little about me:

Hello!  My name is Jennifer.  I live in Tennessee and I am a stay at home Mommie of three kids, ages 2 to 8.  I began using coupons last year when the economy started lagging and I had been laid off from my employer.  Once my eyes were opened to the amount of money I could keep in my pocket I haven’t looked back to shopping without coupons.  I started Coupon Mommie as a way to share my savings and finds with others and really love scouting out the deals.  You can find alot of grocery store matchups, free samples and so much more on this site.  Be sure to signup for RSS feeds or as a follower before you leave so you can stay on top of the deals with the Coupon Mommie.

Ready for some more hopping...

Check out Shake The Salt's Walmart Trip

Who says you can't get a lot of shopping done at Wal-mart? Check out Christy at Shake The Salt and see what she hauled in almost 100 things for an average of $.35cents each. I mean, seriously... I can hardly walk into Wal-mart without dropping $30 at the front door let alone buying almost $150 worth of stuff for that price. Great job Christy!

It’s Springtime & Gardentime– Have You Started?

I’ve been doing a little gardening the past few years alongside my house in some raised beds I made with river rocks.  Raised beds are so nice and I have been loving the fresh stuff that I grow each year.

Do you garden?  Do you have an itch to start?  Check out this new site that I found where she does a wonderful job at detailing her garden tricks and more! 

The site is by the Tomato Lady at Little House in the Suburbs!  My favorite post is her Newspaper Seedling Pots ~ and all us couponers should have a surplus of newspapers to get started, right! 

Enjoy!  And, get to gardening, it’s Spring!

Check Out the Stamper Coupon Couple

Hey, did you know my friend Wendy has her own blog?  Check out her and her husband at Stamper Coupon Couple to see how they’re doing in their coupon venture.

I often talk about Wendy in some of my posts and recently sent a Shout Out to everyone in Helenwood (Scott County) here.  And in all actuality, Wendy is the reason I now blog such an extensive Kroger list.  Everyone Thank Wendy for this and here’s why… 

Before I had been simply posting about my deals that I brought home even though there were some I would pass up myself.  OK for me, not for my readers.

Now, I try to include as many of the Food deals that I can find so she (& everyone else) can prepare a shopping list from home.  Wendy lives in the land of no Kroger but her hubby works here in my Knoxville area of Kroger heaven.  Love his heart with the shopping lists she’s been sending with him.  He’s a good husband!

Love ya Wendy! 

Check out Nicole at MomTrends

Sorry for my absence lately; I am in the middle of Exam Finals at school.  Real quick post for my Mommie friends and I'll cover it in more detail later.

 

Nicole at MomTrends left a comment for me about a contest she is having so I checked her site out real quick and it looks awesome.  She actually has several contests going on right now that I'll definitely be entering. 

I'll do a roundup list after I am done with my homework but in the meantime go ahead and check her out here.  I've already added her to my Feed Reader because it looks like a blog I want to keep my eye on. 

I can't wait to get a break from college so I can start taking bigger baby steps to develop and grow my blog.  Talk to you soon...
