Gratituesday: November 17th

With Thanksgiving (fast) approaching, we sure have a lot to be thankful for! Faith, friends, family all come to mind, as well as savings.
I pride myself in being a bargain hunter, and here's a couple things I've come across lately:


Do you like to go shopping on Black Friday? I'm out there at 5 am :) There's a website that you can search for deals and make a plan of attack right here: http://www.blackfriday2009.com/.
~
Would you like to save 15% off $75 purchase OR 25% off $100 purchase at Old Navy? Just use code "OnSave15" at checkout.
~
Have you checked out "Together We Save" blog? She always has lots of great deals...especially the Chadwicks one she just posted :)

********************************************************
Being on this Weight Watchers plan, there a few food items that have really helped me get through each day and (mostly) stick to the plan. In no particular order:


Great for sandwiches and burger buns - 1 WW Point

~

Sugar-free Jello (Black Cherry rocks!) - 0 WW Points
Sometimes I put a squirt of whipped cream on top...delicious!

~


Sugar-free Chocolate Pudding - 1 WW Point
~



I love to snack on any of these - 2 WW Points
~

But these are my current favorite! Sweet & Salty combination :)

~

Vita tops are great for you (high fiber and tons of vitamins) and taste like a real treat! - 1 WW point

~


These veggie burgers are SOOOOOO good. They are a little spicy, and I'm not a huge spice lover (or veggie burger lover for that matter) but I could eat these every.single.day.

Ahhhh, food and financial savings are what I'm grateful for today. How about you?

  5. I vow to never shop on black Friday. Never. :)
    Actually, I have little to NO shopping for Christmas as we only buy for the kids and there is only 7 that I buy for.
    I love the 'skinny' bread too...and I eat them with my veggie burger!!!!
    Sugar free pudding and jello, well that stuff just rocks my socks!

  7. I shopped 2 years ago on black friday and got good deals and it was fun but i never did before and won't be shopping this year. But I hate crowds and nasty people. Usally this whole season is filled with the worst and meanest shoppers. I'd just rather stay home.

  8. Thanks for the weight watchers reminders.
    I don't know why I don't just start doing that again.
    It really does work.
