I'm taking a summer classic up a notch. When I was grilling pineapple last week, my head was buzzing with all sorts of ideas for the grilled fruit. Why not grill bananas too and make homemade, grilled banana splits? My husband and I LOVE banana splits, but they are usually the most expensive item on the menu at our local ice cream shop. So we made them at home, but I grilled the bananas and the pineapple.

There have been rumors off and on for weeks of CVS changing this policy and apparently as of this month, July 2011, you can no longer use a cents off coupon with a buy one get one free coupon as in the past. A couple of readers have reported seeing this on other sites and today I found Didie, at We Use Coupons, reporting calling customer service twice and asking about this.

This post was written by Marie. . Good financial planning calls for not only saving money, but also building multiple streams of income for yourself. This may sound like a great idea to you, but what can you do to get those multiple streams going? I’m not sure I have the greatest answer to that, but here are some things we tried that did NOT work out for us – at all.

I spent a lot of time this past spring shoveling out the old clay dirt that was in my garden and replacing it with the mix that is recommended in the book, Square Foot Gardening. It was hard work and there was an initial expense, but I knew I wouldn't have to deal with the weeds any more and I knew my plants would love it. I picked my first red tomato recently and I could immediately see the fruits of my labor.

Didie at We Use Coupons called CVS customer service and asked about the use of coupons with a Buy one get one free sale in light of the recent change in the policy on the B1G1 Free coupons and Cents off coupons that I reported on yesterday. She was told the following: You Cannot use 2 coupons on a BOGO sale as in the past (only one coupon on the one you are paying for) and you CAN use a BOGO.

One thing new couponers are eager to learn is how to save more money. While it is important to learn how to save, I think the more important thing to learn is how to spend less. It may seem like the same thing, but let me give you an example. The Jones family wants to learn how to save more. They are a family of four and have a grocery budget of $60 per week, they cook 2-3 dinners from scratch each week and eat out once or twice a week.

The first day of school is fast approaching which means school supplies are flying off the shelves! Wouldn’t it be nice to not have to pay sales tax on those school supplies? Each year, select states offer an extra incentive to shop on certain days by having sales tax-free shopping days! While that means only an $8.25 savings on a $100 purchase here in my great state of Texas, every little bit helps!

So, we'll be incorporating last week's menu plan for this week. And since I have most everything still in my freezer or pantry, that also means I have very little grocery shopping to do this week!
