COACH Deal! Grab It While You Can!! HURRY!!

I love Brad’s Deals. If you haven’t checked it out you should. I’m signed up for the emails which is how I found out about this COACH deal! I know, I’m a frugal blogger, why am I writing about COACH? Well because this is probably some of the lowest prices if not the lowest prices I’ve ever seen on on COACH handbags and wallets through this deal!

Bon-Ton has COACH bags and wallets on sale up to 50% off. Which is a pretty good deal already. Then Brad’s Deals has a special coupon code for an EXTRA 25% off. You can also stack a FREE shipping coupon too which is awesome because shipping is usually $9.95.

To save even more money go through Giving Assistant and you’ll get 3% cash back. That’s what I did. They have small hand bags for as low as $75 shipped with the coupons! About half the hand bags end up being under $150 with the coupon codes.

I’ll tell you I have never owned a COACH …anything…in my life but I splurged a little on myself. This beauty is on it’s way to my house and yes it was under $150:

You can get COACH wallets, coin purses, ID holders, and key chains for even less with this deal. If you’ve been looking for an excuse to get a new handbag, you got it.

Get Ready For Valentine’s Day With Oriental Trading

My 7 yr old son needed Valentines to send in for school. My 3 yr old wanted Valentine’s because her brother was getting Valentines. I realized I had a serious lack of Valentine decorations. I also realized I was going to be inviting my nieces up to play with my two youngest kids and they love creating stuff. So I went to Oriental Trading and took care of everything.

Oriental Trading has prices that won’t break the piggy bank. They also have lots of choices for just about any theme or holiday. I love their craft kits because most of them come with everything you need.

My 7 yr old son picked out these super cute ninja Valentines that came with matching ninja lollipops. While browsing all their Valentine stuff I also found matching bendy ninjas that matched the Valentine cards perfectly. I just had to get them. We put his Valentines together and they turned out so cute.

Then I found a cute craft kit to make Valentine cookie magnets. The kit had enough to make a dozen magnets. Plenty for my little ones and my nieces to each make two if they like. The kit came with individually packaged packets that had the base, foam stickers to decorate the magnet, and individual packs of glitter. It also came with the sticky back magnets to finish the project. The project was easy enough that even the littlest ones could do it but came with enough items that it let the older kids express their creativity.

Also while skimming through the Valentine stuff, I was trying to find a decoration or two for Valentine’s day . That’s when I came across the cutest sign. I’ve not seen anything like it before. I thought it was funny. When I opened the box I couldn’t help but giggle. I didn’t know what my hubby would think about it. I figured it would be a decoration for our bedroom. He laughed when he saw it. When I told him I wanted to put it in the bedroom he said “no you gotta put it where people are going to see it more often, that’s funny” So we decided we’re going to put it in our family room.

I always put little things together to give all the kids for Valentine’s Day. Just something small. I found these cute Peanuts canvas bags that are perfect to fill with treats or whatever you want. I was thinking of making some candy or caramel apples with heart sprinkles on them, packaging them in cellophane and putting them in these bags to give the kids.

Last but not least, my daughter’s Valentines she picked out. She wanted these ones because they came with glow-in-the-dark bracelets. I thought the star theme was cute. I made the mistake of leaving some of the stuff in the box until we were ready for it. I went to work and my daughter was home with the hubby in the morning. When I came home I saw a long glowing line on the floor. My daughter got into a pack of the glow bracelets broke them all to light them and connected them all together. Thankfully she didn’t “need” them for school she just wanted to give some to her brothers and her cousins. There was still one pack left. As I was trying to put one together for the picture the stick got caught on the slit and popped so it started glowing. I realized…wow had she needed these for school they would never make it. If they had to be put together and put in a backpack they’d all be busted and glowing before they even got to school. These would be better served as a party favor for a birthday party (think magic wand) OR keep the bracelets in the box and let the child pass out the bracelets as they hand out out the paper valentine part.

There are lots of fun Valentine items to choose from at Oriental Trading. What would you like to received from Oriental Trading for Valentine’s Day? What is your favorite item I reviewed here?

I received the above mentioned products at no cost in order to complete an honest review. Any opinions expressed are my own.

6 Days Into Beachbody on Demand, My Thoughts

Last year I did was introduced to Beachbody. I had coworkers and friends doing it and they saw results. The one program in particular that kept coming up was 21 Day Fix. The program came with dvd’s for daily 30 min workouts. I’m thinking, ok I think I can find time for 30 minutes somewhere. Then it came with color coded portion control containers and a book that tells you exactly what you can eat, recipes, and tips. Yes! A healthy eating guide just for me. I didn’t want to count calories and figure out labels all day. I’m a working mom of 4 who also happens to run a blog. I don’t have time to do math equations just so I can eat!

So I started it Jan 1 last year and did it steady for 4 months. I lost 12 lbs and 3 inches around my waist. My thighs and butt didn’t jiggle anymore. Thanks to my awesome coach Shannon Butler she encouraged me to join challenge groups, gave out awesome recipes that broke the eating boredom, and is a great motivator.

After 4 months however I started to get bored with the same 7 day cycles. I ordered a different program that I had high hopes for (Beachbody no longer carries) and it just wasn’t what I thought it would be. I didn’t want to put money into another program with fear I wouldn’t like it either. I eventually got so bored of doing the same exercises that I stopped doing them. Then everything else fell like dominos. Later in the year I remembered how good I felt and was mad at myself for not continuing. I gained all the weight back and then some.

The end of December I realized I could do a 30 day FREE trial of Beachbody on Demand and it changed my whole perspective. Yes my coach brought it up to me before but I didn’t listen. If you are not sure where you want to start, what program might be right for you, etc Beachbody on Demand is an awesome place to start. For 30 days you can try out any or all the programs you want. See what works for you. After 30 days either cancel or continue. You can follow a program like 21 Day Fix if you want to or mix it up.

I’m on day 6, I’m having so much fun with . I had always wanted to try Brazil Butt Lift but was afraid to buy it in case I didn’t like it but it was fun and I definitely felt the burn! Today I tried Hip Hop Abs. I didn’t really think I was going to like it but I had so much fun I forgot I was exercising. I’m definitely feeling it now though.

If you’ve already purchased Beachbody programs they’ll show up under “Purchased Programs” just click that link at the top of the screen and it will show you’ll all the programs you own and you can do them from Beachbody on Demand. There are apps for your phone and tablets too so if you go on vacation or wherever you still have access to your workouts.

They also have a program called “Fixate” with Autumn and Bobby Calabrese that shows you how to make healthy recipes. I’m so craving the wasabi cream cheese Salmon burger now!

I use Beachbody on Demand with Amazon Fire Stick but you can use it through several options. Beachbody on Demand is a great place to start if you’re not sure what program you want to try. The Beachbody on Demand 30 day free trial makes sure you don’t waste any money on programs that might not be for you.

Try Beachbody on Demand with me for 30 days. You’ll need a good coach to help you with recipe ideas and encouragement. My coach Shannon Butler is a Diamond Beachbody coach. She knows her stuff. And check out Shannon’s story here.
