Toy Story 3 is almost out!  This was the 1st movie we have ever brought our daughter to see in theater, so I'm super excited to bring it home for her. The cheapest place to get it (Nov 2-4 2010) is Walmart $29.93 for the blu-ray combo pack and Zellers $29.99.  As an added bonus from Zellers you will get a free lunch box, how cute is that.  Worth the $.06 difference from Walmart in my opinion :-P AND get a $10 savings card when you spend $50 between Nov 5 - 18{Zellers}.  If you click on the link I provided up above,  you will also get a coupon to save $8.00 on top of that!  That's why I had only listed the blu-ray combo pack prices, because with the coupon they will be cheaper than the dvd on it's own.  Disney has said on their sites that all blu-rays are sold as combo packs, meaning you get BOTH the blu-ray & dvd.  

{You will have to join Disney Movie Rewards to be able to print out your coupon, which is no biggie because as you buy Disney movies you will get codes in the box to get points, and redeem when you have enough}

A little about this blogger, and my plans for this site

My name is Avery, yes like the paper company.  I'm a stay at home mom to a beautiful and awesome 2 1/2 year  old girl., and proud of it! I'm married to my best friend, and share our house with cute little animals.
I had decided, and started a blog a while back.  I guess I wasn't really focused and never made much of it.  I am going to make an effort to succeed this time around.  This will be my time, where I can go to express my thoughts of the day and anything I think might be of interest to someone else.

I am into 'crunchy' parenting stuff, such as breastfeeding {yes my daughter Jayla is still breastfeeding, and I am proud to say so}, cloth diapering, making my own cleaners,  bed sharing, using the no cry it out method, among other things but this is what 1st popped into my head.

I have reasons for why I like the things that I like if anyone feels the need to judge or challenge me.  Each family, parent, PERSON has things that works for them.  No one can tell you what will work for you, it's up to you to  figure that out on your own, and trust me you will.  I think it's time we all try to be a little more understanding of one another.  I'm sure we're all more alike than we thought, since everything has a stigma attached to it.

I love coupons, sales and deals, and freebies.  I am looking forward to be able to pass those things to you, since they make my day.  Since we are a 1 income family, and not the richest out of those, we try to make our pennies cover a lot.

Me and the hubby have been together for some time, we have had our ups and our downs just like any other couple out there.  We have worked hard at things, and other times barely tried and got along great.  I would of course like to bring to the blog.

I will be posting product reviews of things I have tried.  Honest reviews.

I know it will take time to get everything up and running the way I am hoping for.

Thanks so much for taking the time out of your day to read my blog.
