Hello and welcome to the 316th Carnival of Personal Finance- Family Edition. This week I am reminding you all about those special people in your life- your family. This past weekend I headed out west with my husband, brother, and his girlfriend to help my parents move into their new house. It was during this rather taxing weekend that I was reminded of how great a loving family can be.

My herbs needed a haircut. So I cut back the parsley, oregano, thyme and dill and cleaned them. I removed the leaves and discarded the stems. I then threw the leaves in freezer bags and flattened the air out of the bags. I'll store in the freezer until I'm ready to use. I decided against drying them, because I read that freezing will hold their flavor better.

SavingStar is a new program where you get additional money back by shopping with your store loyalty card. It’s like e-coupons but instead of saving right at the register you get your money back through PayPal, a direct deposit, or even a gift card (Amazon rocks!). The SavingStar Grocery Coupons program works on most grocery store (and drug store) loyalty cards (except Safeway and Publix stores).

This post was written by Derek. For those of you that manage your own blog, that title almost sounds like an oxymoron doesn’t it? Blogging takes time, time, and more time. In order to succeed, you have to write fresh new articles for your site at least every other day, comment on other blogs, write for other sites, update your Facebook page, update your Twitter account, maintain your Digg, StumbleUpon, and Technorati accounts….and that’s just to name a few things.

On page two of the ad it shows Select Snack Items at 10/$10 (you don't have to buy 10 to get the $1 price). It says selection varies by store. In the picture is Chex Mix. There is a new $.50/1 Printable coupon for Chex Mix (check zip 37311 if not in yours). I can't guarantee this the right size or will be included in your store, but it seems from that past there is a good chance it is. .

When I first started Simply CVS I was saving about $100 a week, then last year it dropped to about $75. Now I am getting even less. But the lean years aren't really a problem because I was able to get a nice stockpile going that I can now easily maintain with far less deals. I can also be much more picky on what deals I will do because I don't need so many of the great deal items--I can wait.
