Simply AMAZING Guilt-Free International Delight Iced Coffee! #LightIcedCoffee

By couponinoncoffee on December 28, 2012

I was very fortunate to be able to try out the NEW International Delight Light Iced Coffee! Every one of you already know that I am addicted to coffee and have tried about every flavor coffee out there, hence the name – Couponin’ On Coffee I think I should be a coffee expert at this point, don’t you think? I will confess… I think I have a slight addiction to drive-thru coffee shops! It is just so convenient and with three kids who wants to go home and make a pot of coffee while being distracted with everything BUT your pot of coffee! I cannot tell you how many times I have made a pot of coffee and have forgotten all about it. I have even poured my cup, fixed it exactly how I like it, and then LOST it somewhere in the house because I was being pulled three different directions to go break up a fight, get one off the potty, change a diaper, or kiss a boo-boo! Simply put, I am 100 percent for CONVENIENCE!

When I arrive at the drive-thru coffee shops, I am always TORN between the DELICIOUS, refreshing, COLD Iced coffees, BUT there is always that ONE factor that makes me choose the hot plain-jane coffee instead. CALORIES! I live in Louisiana so there are so many times during the summer I CRAVE Iced coffee, but (1) I don’t want to spend $4.45 on a drink that will literally last me 2.2 minutes to slurp down, and (2) It just seems like WASTED calories that I could use to eat a brownie or something ! This is why I am often walking around in 90 degree weather with HOT coffee! Crazy right?

When these two amazing flavors of Iced coffee arrived on my doorstep, I was pumped! I am very partial to Vanilla flavors so I opened that one first and tried it out. One word-PERFECT! What made it even more perfect was I was in the comfort of my OWN home drinking an iced coffee with 1/3 fewer calories AND it was not just a single serving. I was able to put the cap back on, toss it in the fridge, knowing I would be able to enjoy another glass later that evening! The mocha was JUST as good. My husband has always been partial to mocha so he tried that one first and loved it. I will not make this statement lightly, but I feel it should be said…. “It was WAY better than any drive-thru “convenient coffee” that you will pay almost $5 each for!

A friend and I always get together for coffee at each of our houses. We do not dare go to a coffee shops with all of our kids combined. That is just asking for disaster! When she came over a few days ago she noticed the International Delight Coffee in my fridge and we decided to have that instead of our usual cup of hot coffee! The only problem we had was being tempted for seconds Actually, we gave into the temptation and had TWO glasses, but did not feel guilty at all! This morning I woke up extremely thirsty for some reason, so instead of breaking out the Keurig, I enjoyed a nice glass or maybe TWO (haha) of the new International Delight Iced Coffee! Check out the widget on the side of my blog to see how much money I have saved since drinking the new iced coffee

#Cbias #Socialfabric #MealsTogether Tyson Campaign! Every Kids’ favorite Food!

By couponinoncoffee on December 24, 2012

When selected for the #MealsTogether Tyson campaign, I was SUPER PUMPED! It is not just my kids that love Tyson’s nuggets, but I think I love them just as much! When I arrived at Sam’s Club to attend the demo, I was a little worried at first because I saw TONS of demos, but couldn’t find Tyson’s stand! I felt pretty dumb when I didn’t even think to look in the frozen food section LOL. Our demo lady was SOO much fun! She was having just as much fun making characters out of the chicken nuggets as we were! My friend Malary came along for the ride and since it was around lunchtime that we went, I believe she would have ate the entire plate of chicken nuggets if they would have let her!!! LOL. She is pregnant and free food sounds like heaven to her!

Mrs. Rene was having a blast! She wouldn’t even let us eat her first creation

Can you tell I was excited about my bag of Tyson nuggets. Easiest meal EVER to fix your kids!

Of course we had to try out the other demos that Sam’s club had going on!

I was patiently waiting for the Tyson nuggets to cook in the oven, but unfortunately my kids were going crazy waiting for them to be finished! They have NOT learned the word patient yet I guess at age 5, 4, and 2 that is a little much to ask for right? hehe!

We decided to make two snowmen and one Mickey Mouse The Mickey Mouse was a bit tricky, but we managed! The ingredients we had out on the table was ranch, BBQ sauce, Ketchup, and Mustard! I even bought some paint sponges to make it more creative!

We couldn’t resist making funny eyeballs out of the chicken nuggets! We had to get Mickey’s ears somehow. LOL

I only THOUGHT she was ready to eat her snowman!

I was surprised that she did not jump in to devour the Tyson nuggets! Instead, she slowly licks the condiments from the nuggets! I don’t think she wanted to mess up her snowman she worked so hard on! Bless her heart!

This is the one that could not WAIT to put the WHOLE Mickey in his mouth at one time! He was ready for the next project in 2.2 seconds!

My oldest daughter was REALLY taking her time with her snowman! I don’t think I have ever seen her concentrate so hard on something! If only she would concentrate on her school work like she did this snowman LOL

We had so much fun decorating the Tyson nuggets the night before, I decided to make Christmas themed biscuits the next morning for breakfast for Christmas Eve The kids LOVED it!

I have TONS more pictures of my shopping trip if you would like to check out the full album, click here! If you would like to check out MORE creations that you can do with your kids, check out Tyson’s facebook page HERE or you follow them on twitter HERE!

#Cbias #SharetheSoft Shopping Trip – Getting ready for Cold Season!

By couponinoncoffee on November 24, 2012

My daughter and I recently were able to get prepared for the cold season before we actually got sick! We were only suppose to go to Walmart that night, but it was just too tempting since my husband was watching my other two kids! We totally made it a girls night out and went to Ross, Marshall’s and Tuesday Mornings before we even started on our way to Walmart. This is before I knew we were going to have to go to THREE separate Walmart stores to find exactly what we were looking for… SO daddy had the kids a little longer than I had planned Whoops!

Kleenex, Vudu, #SharetheSoft, Walmart, Cough Cold Flu Prep

Our main item on our list was KLEENEX! How can you get through cold season without Kleenex. I don’t know about you but I cannot use any other tissue on my nose when I have a cold. There is nothing worse than having a raw red nose from using the wrong brand of tissue! I have this really cute tissue box cover in my bathroom stocked with Kleenex tissue. I have been looking for a tissue box cover that matches my kids’ bathroom so they can have one too! (Although I am sure they would waste them by throwing them all over the bathroom just because it is something else for me to pick up ). Let me not get on a ramble about my kids doing things they aren’t suppose to do because we would be here all night!! Back to the shopping trip..

We were on a hunt for not only a simple box of Kleenex but one with a REALLY awesome voucher for vudu.com (a really cool site to watch almost any movie you want with NO monthly fees! You only pay for what you watch! *More on that later*) The first Walmart did not have the multi-pack we were looking for so we went ahead and got a few grocery items that were on our list, then off to the second Walmart. I was really hoping we could find the multi-pack here because I didn’t want my food to melt. Unfortunately they were fresh out as well! Guess cold season hit everyone else’s home earlier than ours this year!

Finally we ran to the Walmart across town and we were in luck! We found the multi-packs WITH the $4 vouchers to Vudu.com! I was giddy like a school girl! We quickly grabbed a pack and then started picking out other items to get us ready for the season! Lysol, Kids’ cough medicine, WARM SOCKS, Kleenex-to-go packs, and nasal spray are MUST-HAVES! We had a lot of fun picking out items to prepare BUT I think I jinxed myself because I was completely healthy while shopping for these items and now…. I am sick Those warm socks and Kleenex tissues have come in handy after my long night of Black Friday shopping!)

Kleenex, Vudu, #SharetheSoft, Walmart, Cough Cold Flu Prep

Time to check out and relieve my husband from the torture of our 2 and 4 year old

When we arrived back home, I was ready to put the kids to bed so we could check out what Vudu was all about! Oh, and of course I had to try out my new warm socks! Redeeming our free voucher was so easy! All you have to do is redeem your code online here at Walmart.com. Once you type in your code and create your free account, you will be able to choose any movie that is available. There were tons of movies that even redbox did not have yet!

Below are some steps to help walk you through creating your account at Vudu and redeeming your voucher in case you get stuck! By the way, you get ANOTHER free movie JUST for signing up !

I hope I made the set up simple for you. We are now in love with Vudu and we do not have to run to Redbox every night to rent movies. The best part is we don’t have to remember to bring the movie back or worry about it getting lost in the car until you pay full price for the movie from all of the Redbox charges! (YES, this recently happened to us .) Click here to see my entire Google Plus album full of pictures from the shop!

My #Cbias #CypherKidsClub Shopping Trip!

By couponinoncoffee on November 16, 2012

My family and I were fortunate enough to be able to go shopping for the super cool Cypher Kids Augmented Reality Cards. It just so happen that we were heading to Target during lunch time so OF COURSE we had to stop at Chili’s and grab a bite to eat first. The nice thing about that meal was mine was FREE! Chili’s was honoring veterans, so I was able to pick a meal for completely free! The day got even better when we made a quick stop at Best Buy to purchase my brand new Macbook Air! I was really testing my luck waiting to go to Target last. I was surprised the kids behaved that long!

The Cypher cards were super easy to find! We went straight to the electronics and they were located right under the sign, app accessories! I love how Target is always so organized. We had trouble choosing which one to get out of the three options. The choices were Letters, Numbers, and Animals. We chose the letters!

As you can see I have some crazy kids that couldn’t wait to get home to see what these Cypher Learning Cards were all about!

Once you get home with your Cypher Cards, all you have to do is download the FREE app on your ipod touch, iphone 4, 4s, ipad 2 or 3, that coordinates with your cards and as soon as it is finished downloading, the magic begins!

Cypher Kids, Cypher Entertainment, Augmented Reality, Learning Cards, Target

After playing with the Letters version of the Cypher cards, we quickly became addicted and went back to the store the next day to purchase the Wild Animals and numbers versions! I would DEFINITELY look for these at select Target stores on Black Friday if you plan on going shopping on the biggest shopping day of the year!

I will admit that my husband and secretly had a lot of fun with these after the kids went to bed

My #Cbias #HuggiesWalmart Shopping Trip!

By couponinoncoffee on November 8, 2012

I had to make a quick stop to cast my vote on election day before my daughter and I went to Walmart to start shopping for Huggies! Once I waited in the LONG line and got through the polls, I ran back home and got my oldest daughter dressed and ready to go!

My daughter and I had such a fun time shopping for Huggies Snug and Dry Diapers! She wants to make sure I let you know that they are NOT for her, they are for her little sister She wears big girl panties! Although I am ready for all of my kids to be out of diapers, my #1 choice in diapers will always be the Huggies Snug and Dry diapers! My daughter has eczema really bad, so they are very gentle and keep her dry and clean with no extra rash! Anytime I buy diapers for a baby shower I buy the Newborn size of the Huggies Snug and Dry. They make perfect gifts and as moms, we all know that you can never have enough diapers!

huggies, snug and dry, walmart, diapers, #huggieswalmart

Everyone knows that you cannot go to Walmart for just ONE thing so of course we made several stops along the way before we hit the baby section. The majority of those stops included clearance shelves that stick out to me like a sore thumb! I found some really cool coffee mugs with lids for only .25 cents because they were considered “Summer Clearance”! This girl can never have too many “to go” coffee cups! We finally made it to the back of the store after all of my impulse grabs and immediately ran into just the end cap I was looking for! The HUGE box of Huggies Snug and Dry Diapers are already marked at the low rollback price of $22.94 which you can also find and purchase online here. Walmart was stocked up very nicely on this selection of diapers! You can always find coupons for Huggies to save even more money! Check out My coupon database to search for Huggies Coupons!

After we got what we needed, I knew it was time to get out of there before I spent all of my husband’s money I had promised my daughter if she was REALLY good, I would get her a treat, so she picks out those really messy cheese puffs! YAY! Once we got to the front of the store the lines were CRAZY. $95 dollars later, we were finally home! My son had to get in on the action and show us how strong he was with the big box of Huggies Snug and Dry diapers!

Check out my deal of the century :)

By couponinoncoffee on October 15, 2011

A HUGE way I save money is waking up early on Saturday mornings to go to garage sales! I was able to decorate my entire girls’ room this morning from thing I found at garage sales! One person’s junk, is another person’s treasure! LOL. A lot of times it is not junk at all! I thought my inflatable jumper I got last week was a great deal but it is going to take something special to beat the deal I got this morning! They had a daughter that did not like girly things, so they decided to part with the dollhouse! They paid over $120 for it at Toys-R-Us not long ago. It looks BRAND NEW! They had $30 on the sticker, I asked if they would take $20, the guy loaded into my vehicle!! Can I tell you how excited I am??? I am PUMPED! My husband took my older two to the mud races today, so it is all set up waiting for her to get home!! I can’t wait to see the look on her face!!

$20 bucks (That is less than an outing at Chili’s :0)

Now, try getting up next weekend and hitting the garage sales!! This should motivate you!
