Clif Fruit Twists Amazon Deal

You can get 24 Organic Fruit twists by Clif for $9.99 with free shipping.

That makes them $0.42 a piece.
I never buy these when they are over $0.50 a piece.
One time I found them for $.25 a piece. I should have cleaned them out.

This is a very good price. I think I am going to order 4 boxes.

Check it out HERE

Prices on Amazon change all the time. I can't guarantee the price will last for long.


Earn Swagbucks when you shop at Amazon.com


Amazon.com has teamed up with Swagbucks.
For every dollar you spend on Amazon (in certain departments), you get 3 Swagbucks.

Swagbucks is a search engine. You can make it your homepage and do your web searches.
It also has games, polls, surveys, coupons, and offers you can do each day to earn more Swagbucks.

I earn Swagbucks and turn them in for gift cards to Amazon.com and it helps to offset the cost of organic.
My favorite thing to buy is Arrowhead Mill Organic Popcorn. For $15.16 using Subscribe and Save you get 6 bags of 28 oz organic popping kernals.  That is already a good price, but then you add your $5 or $10 gift card from Swagbucks and it's a steal. I think I have about 10 bags in my storage right now- because during the Zombie Apocalypse I am going to want popcorn.

Sign up for Swagbucks HERE to start earning your free stuff.

Kate Quinn Organics -- need a baby shower gift?

A deal is only a deal if it is something you actually need and want and it's purchase does NOT make you go over budget. You simply can't scoop every deal up as they come along or the whole idea behind living within your means flies out the window.

Organic baby clothes are expensive.
It's as simple as that.
When you can go to the Old Navy clearance rack and pick up an outfit for $5, it's hard to justify $45 for a romper.

This deal might take out the sting.

For $30 you get a $60 voucher towards Kate Quinn Organics.

They have several things on clearance right now.
Like this dress for $18.00
spaghetti sailor yoke dress | new leaf
Since your voucher makes $60 worth of goods only $30, you are basically getting this dress for $9.
$9 for an organic dress is a sweet deal.
bell sleeve dress bodysuit | seahorse
Add this body suit for $15
pocket shorts | blue stripe
These shorts for $14
ruffle skirt | coral
And this skirt for $15.
Your total is $62, but you will only pay $32.
A dress, a bodysuit, shorts, and a skirt for $32. That averages $8 a piece.
And that's a good deal.
Shop for your own children, stock up for babyshowers, or donate to a shelter.

This is also one of those deals where if you buy it, and 3 of your friends buy it under you, you end up getting it for free. So once you purchase, share it on Facebook and leave your unique link in the comments below.

View the Deal HERE

And please read ALL the details before you purchase.

Tippr Deal: $39 box of organic fruits delivered

Check out this Tippr Deal if you are in need of a gift to send to someone out of state.
It still seems expensive to me, especially since it is an additional $10 to ship.

So the total is $49 for 8-10 lbs of organic fruits.
At my farmer's market I rarely pay more than $2.49 a lb for anything, so this seems rather inflated.
And they are saying the normal price is $99 plus $10 for shipping! Do people actually pay $10 a lb for fruit?

But I suppose if you have someone out of state, or someone really trying to eat healthy during the holidays this might be a good option.

I try to only post deals I believe in--- and this one is on the fence.
So you tell me---- is this a good deal?

Where to buy organic.

When people think about purchasing organic foods and products they tend to think of Trader Joe's and Whole Foods first. And it's true, you can find organics there, but it's not necessarily the best place to spend your dollar.

Most grocery stores have organic sections now.
And you will even find organic in the most unexpected places.

I typically shop at 4 different stores.

Safeway
Nob Hill / Raley's
Costco
The Grocery Outlet

I do go to Trader Joe's for organic apples, soy-free sandwich bread, and organic salad mixes. The apples and salad prices can't be beat. And it's the only place I can find a soy-free bread that my kids will eat. Truth be told-- I need to learn to make my own bread. But that's for another day.

I will also shop at Whole Foods if they are having a sale on something I need to stock up on. I probably go to Whole Foods 3-4 times a year. The last time I got 30 lbs of ground beef for my extra freezer. Organic and grass fed for $5.99 a lb. Whole Foods is by far the most expensive place to shop if you are converting to organic-- I don't recommend them for weekly shopping. They do have some magnificent sales though and organic products you can not find anywhere else.

Safeway carries organic lines and also has several lines of their own. Eating Right, Open Nature and O Organics. ) Organics is the only one certified organic, but sometimes you can find nice alternatives in the other 2. They have promotions often which offset the prices.With a little bit of homework looking for the sales and coupons, I can get my total price to be nearly identical to the non-organic food items.

Raley's / Nob Hill used to have 2 beautiful aisles of organics and naturals. They just recently removed them from my store. Did the same thing happen to you? They decided to incorporate the organics in with the rest of the food. So now organic cereal is in the cereal aisle. Organic flour is in the baking aisle. I get it- but I don't like it. Now I have to go through the entire store to get what I need. I hope they don't think they are going to trick me into putting extra stuff in my cart. They also have a pretty nice organic fresh produce section. I like it better than Safeway's. They have reasonable prices and they food looks crisp.

Costco. Every time I go to Costco I see them expanding their organic product lines. This makes me happy because Costco carries what people buy. They give the people what they want. I love that people want organic. I get my 10 lb bag or organic carrots for only $4.49. One my last trip I got organic chicken burgers with cheese and bacon mixed in them. Nitrite Nitrate FREE! Score! I haven't eaten them yet though--- so the jury is still out. My Costco carried Organic Valley milk, heavy cream, half & half. Organic Valley is a family owned California company so I am not sure if they carry that one all over.  I can get a gallon of organic milk for $5-- which is the cheapest I've seen without a sale or coupon. Their inventory is always growing and the prices tend to be far below Whole Foods. I hit Costco once a month.

The Grocery Outlet is a little gem in our community. It's an overstock store so the inventory is always changing. If you see something amazing, grab as much as you can afford (paying special attention to expiration dates). It may never show up there again! I have found some amazing deals there. Imacculate cresent rolls, normally $4.79 for just $1.49. Organic sugar, brown sugar, powdered sugar. Random organic snacks to try out on the kids like chips, crackers, fruit snacks. Organic shampoo/conditioner, body wash, and cosmetics, all for 50-75% off retail. When I got shopping, I go here first. Since I never know what they will carry I spend about 15 minutes going through the aisles, finding the treasures. Then I go do the rest of my shopping at Safeway or Nob Hill to get the missing items from my list.

The rest of my shopping is done online. I save a little bit of my grocery money each week so I can snatch up that unbelievable daily deal. I have purchased coconut oil, spices, organic teeth whitening, all sorts of odds and ends.

I live in one of the most expensive places to live. The Bay Area of California. I have a family of 5. My grocery budget is $600 a month. I typically spend $100 at Costco. $100 for online purchases. And $100 a week for groceries. I buy about 80% organic. It is possible for all of us!

Method introduces a new bottle

I think this is a lovely idea.
You can find a $1 off coupon in the Smart Source 10/7 Insert
and a $1 off coupon printable from Whole Foods
You can use both coupons at Whole Foods to get $2 off!




The ProblemWhat We're Doing About It
it’s estimated that several million tons of plastic makes its way into our oceans every year, polluting the environment and hurting our marine populations. and the problem isn’t going away anytime soon as more plastic washes up on beaches everyday.
as a small soap company, we know we can’t clean up the world’s oceans. but we can raise awareness about the issue and use our business to demonstrate smart ways of using and reusing the plastics that are already on the planet. we think the best way to do that is by proving that solutions exist, even at a small scale.
How We're Doing ItHow It Helps
over the past year and a half, method employees, with the help of local beach clean-up groups and volunteers, have hand-collected more than one ton of plastic from the beaches of Hawai’i. and working with our recycling partner, Envision Plastics, who were willing to take a chance on making the impossible possible, we’ve taken plastic from the beach and turned it into bottles.
through this new + innovative use of recovered ocean plastic, we hope to show how design can be used to tackle environmental problems. we’re not saying that the solution to the ocean plastic problem is making bottles out of trash, but by doing so we can prove that there are alternatives to using virgin materials – like PCR plastic, which we use in all of our bottles. by recycling + reusing existing plastic, we can turn off the tap. and that is the first, most important step toward improving the state of our oceans.
