The Friends of Manito 2011 Spring Plant Sale is Tomorrow

Anyone out there have a green thumb and like plant sales? I know someone who does and man does she EVER have a green thumb. You can go check out her AWESOME pictures and see what I'm talking about for yourself. Go check "her" blog out and you will be amazed. "Her" is my sister-in-law, who is traveling as we speak, to from Oregon to Spokane, where she and "her" AWESOME hubby live. She is one person that I know who will be attending that plant sale. So, watch out Spokane, Danger Garden is in town, and from I hear, she is armed and ready.☺ Well, I'm hearing that THE plant sale is the one put on by The Friends of Manito. They do this plant sale EVERY year and I hear it AWESOME. I am not much of a green thumb myself. I sure wish I was. :( I was very happy that I didn't kill my vegetable garden last year, so maybe there is hope. Anyway, here are the details.....

What: The Friend of Manito 2011 Spring Plant Show
Where: East of Gaiser Conservatory, Manito Park, Spokane Wa (here's a map)
When:  Tomorrow, June 11, 2011...

**Reminder** Liberty Lake Yard Sale TOMORROW, 6/11

Photo courtesy of the Splash!

The map is now uploaded, so I have updated this posting with the direct link to the map. ☺

Ooooh, I can't tell you how EXCITED I am, just found out that the Liberty Lake Yard Sale is this weekend! I was just asking my husband, last night, if had had heard anything yet (he works in Liberty Lake, so he gets the scoop). Anyway, Frugal Chic Living, just shared that it is THIS weekend! Yay! Have you been to THE Liberty Lake Yard Sale yet? I went last year for the first time and got LOTs of stuff. It is soooooo fun. The kids had a blast. We just found one parking spot and walked through the neighborhood with our backpacks. Some people take wagons and other little doohickeys.

You ask, what is the Liberty Lake Yard Sale? Well.......It is a one day event where the Liberty Lake Community has yard sales throughout the city of Liberty Lake. I thought I read somewhere that so far there were 125 home listed to have yard sales this year. I could be wrong, but that just shows you how BIG this is. There are even venues setup to sell food and drink too.

So, this is Saturday, June 11th from 8 to 4. You just go out, find a parking spot, and start walking. Don't forget your money and a backpack or bag of some sort. You will find all kinds of goodies.

There will even be maps available here or even at their local service stations. You can go on over here to get more info.

Thanks Frugal Chic Living!

Look what came to my door today.....

Remember that Glidden paint giveaway that I told you about here? Well, I just wanted to show you what landed on my doorstep today.....

Yes, that there is my FREE quart of Glidden paint!

My goal here was to show you that it really does pay to put in for those freebies that we bloggers post about. Now, not all of them will make it to your doorstep for many different reasons, but there are some that do come through and it sure is nice when they do. We will be able to use this for different projects around the house and whatnot. It's not a lot of pain, but it's more paint than what I had of this color that I DON'T have to pay our hard earned money for it. I can use my money for something else. What does a quart of Glidden paint cost anyway? I'm thinking 10-bucks or so. That is a pretty good savings on my end.

**Oh, a tip for when you do sign up for freebies and samples, n' stuff like that is to setup a "free" email account just for these offers, so that your regular e-mail does not get clogged up with a ton of spam and unwanted emails.

Wow, thanks Glidden paint for this AWESOME freebie!

Still available=Two Fandango Movie Tickets for ONLY $9!

YAY!! This deal is STILL available. Hurry, so you don't miss out on it. :)

Update: So this deal was offered up sometime in March and I got in on the deal then. We JUST used our passes last night, 6/9, (my husband got a couple and I got a couple) and our family went to see the new X-Men movie yesterday. Well..... I slept through most of it as that is the common theme with myself and movies. I needed to rest up for Zumba class last night. :) Anyway, we surprised the kiddos and took them to the movies and they LOVED it. This is something that we RARELY do as I am not much of a movie goer and IT'S WAY TOO EXPENSIVE to take a family of five.

Anyway, the process was sooooo easy peasy. My husband and I talked it out and figured the kids would like this movie so, he went and got our codes from our Living Social accounts and input them into the Fandango system, printed out our passes, took them to the theater, gave them to the ticket person, where you pay, and then gave the other half to "the" ticket taker. Really, guys, it was so easy and convenient, not to mention FRUGAL!

Wow, it looks like they are offering this movie deal AGAIN. They offered this back in March and we got in
on the deal then and here it is AGAIN! Yay!. Anyway, currently LivingSocial (a daily deal site) is offering up TWO Fandango movie tickets for ONLY $9!

One question I keep getting asked is.....What movie is this too? Well, you don't have to have a specific movie picked out. Just buy the deal and it's like a gift certificate. You can pick your movie out later. Remember July is usually when the REALLY good movies come out. That's when we will probably be using ours. ☺

Here is the fine print....

I WAS ABLE to use mine today towards this deal. That is AWESOME!! So, I ONLY PAID $4 FOR TWO MOVIE TICKETS!!! I'm not sure if they are still offering up a $5 for new sign-ups. If you do sign-up, will you let us know? We sure would appreciate it. :)

Just go on over here if you want to sign-up or sign-in and get in on the deal. Hurry before times up though. :)

Thanks Southern Cali Saver for the heads up on this!

*HOT* Printables

If you want these coupons, you'd better hurry before they reach their print limits. I have a feeling they are going to go fast. Go on over here to get these two coupons..... (use zip 77477)

Thanks Coupon Katarina for the heads up on these!

While I was there, I also came across these coupons too...

If this is really "new," then there should be some pretty good sales coming up on it. So, I would print it and put it in that nice stash of coupons you have to use when it DOES go on sale. :)

I don't really know what the prices of this lip stuff is at Walmart. Maybe we can pick up some pretty cheap lip stuff?

Thanks!
