Don’t Tell Her I Told You!

birthday cakePssst! Today is Lazy Mom Amanda’s birthday! I’m sure she’s napping right now. After all, what else is a Lazy Mom going to do on her birthday? If it was me I would have climbed back in bed after I sent the kids off to school.

Who am I kidding? I’m talking about my best friend who is training for a marathon. Her crazy self is probably out for a run! Please join me in wishing LMA a Happy Birthday!

Who Doesn’t Like Free?

It’s time for a giveaway!

It’s also time for our kids to go back to school. Monday is the magic day around here. In honor of that please leave us a comment telling us what you did or plan to do the day your kids go back to school. Are you going to get a pedicure? Are you going to lunch with a friend? Or are you cleaning house or spending the day at the office?

Leave us a comment and we will pick a winner Sunday evening. The winner will receive a brand new copy of Saving Dinner by Leanne Ely. It’s full of great recipes! The best part is that they are grouped by week and Leanne provides you with a shopping list for the week. All the hard work is done for you!

We can’t wait to hear what everyone has planned for the first day of school! Maybe we’ll get some great ideas on how to celebrate enjoy the day!

Katy:  What a great idea and how timely! I just uncovered my treadmill and dug out my pilates dvd! It’s time to get back in shape so all of my clothes will fit! Now – to just get out of bed earlier.

bagCongrats, Katy.  You are the winner of the Lazy Mom’s Tote Bag.  It is a great bag and will make an awesome gym bag!  Have someone take a pic of you with the bag and e-mail it to us.  And, calling all the other bag winners:  we want your picture!  We’d love to post pics of “Lazy Moms Across the World” with their Lazy Mom’s Tote Bag!

Katy, just send the Lazy Moms an e-mail with your shipping info and we will get that out to you!

As for the rest of you, stay tuned!  The workout should be coming soon.  Although, if you feel like I do, the later it comes the better!

Are We Annoying You Yet?

grocery gameI know it’s getting obnoxious, but we interrupt this regularly schedule program to bring you the latest on The Grocery Game.  Today at Kroger it was Double Coupon Day!  For one day only!  I was like a kid in a candy store.  Remember, 6 weeks ago I didn’t even clip coupons.  Guess how much I saved today?  $136…can you believe that?  We have out of town company coming this weekend so I bought extra and I bought good (steaks, ribs, etc).  I still spent quite a bit, but my savings was huge!!!

Have you started clipping coupons or playing The Grocery Game?  How much do you normally spend a week on groceries?  How much do you save with coupons and sales?  We are not paid sponsors (although we never turn down money!).  We are just two Mamas trying to save money in a tough economy!  Sign up for The Grocery Game and tell ‘em Lazy Mom Amanda sent you (amanda@lazymoms.com).

And the Winner is….

The winner of Pottery Barn’s Workspaces is….
