free haircuts for all

i did it! i finally took the plunge tonight and cut both titan and broc’s hair!!! i’ll admit it was nerve racking at first (well until i was done actually!) but i think over time i’ll get the hang of it. the cuts aren’t perfect by any means, to an untrained eye though, i think they’ll pass!

from here on out, this little family will only be getting haircuts when we are in utah and can get aunt brooke to do them. the rest of the time, it’ll be my job. here’s to saving over $200 a year!!! 🙂

i mentioned in my previous post that broc and i had our “valentine’s” date on friday night. we hate fighting the crowds on the 14th and so we always plan our night a few days before or after. here is how we celebrated valentine’s for under $5!

babysitter: free
dinner at olive garden: $1.00
2 movie tickets: $1.50 each so $3.00 total
movie treats & drinks: $1.00
grand total: $5.00! 

first off for a babysitter we are lucky and have grandma & grandpa who are willing to babysit so we can have date nights, so that is how we got that for free. for those who don’t have grandma & grandpa so close, i recommend finding another couple and trading once or twice a month. one of you take friday and the other take saturday…you get the idea. i’ve been told here in colorado the going rate for a babysitter watching one child is $6-$8 an hour so i am so happy we have family close at hand! if we didn’t i’d sure be offering to trade!!!

next for dinner we received a gift card to olive garden for $25.00 at christmas and so we saved it knowing valentine’s would be here shortly. i also took along a coupon for $4.00 off two entree’s, so by the time we filled up on our soup, salad, breadsticks and entree’s, plus got my refills on my diet coke & paid a tip, we only ended up paying $1.00 out of pocket.

for the movie treats i stopped at walgreen’s the morning of and grabbed some candy on sale to use as filler items during my usual shopping run. our favorite movie snacks are gummi bears, twizzlers & milk duds! since the items were fillers and i was using register rewards the candy was all under a $1.00. for drinks, i knew i’d be getting a drink at olive garden so i just grabbed us some water bottles from our stash at home.

now for the movie. movies around here are $10.50 a ticket in the evening which means $21.00 for the two of us to see a movie. yikes! a couple months ago though general mills did a promotion where for every two boxes of cereal you purchased you could submit for a free movie ticket good at most theaters. so i waited for a sale and used some coupons and purchased each box of cereal for just .75 cents which means $1.50 a movie ticket! plus we got the cereal as well! so really i could consider the movie free, but we’ll consider the cereal free. the best part was the passes were used like cash so we were able to see “just go with it” the night it came out. no having to wait until the “no passes, no discounts” restriction was lifted.

…and there you have it, how we went out on valentine’s for under $5.00!

now ready for this? if i total up what we would have spent without coupons, discounts & a little advanced planning this date would have cost us the following:

babysitter at $7 an hour for 5 hours: $35.00
olive garden: $30.00
movie & snacks: $21.00 for the movie & $10 for snacks & drinks (at least!)
grand total: $96.00!

now of course, we did have the gift card which helped a lot, but even with taking that out of the mix, we still saved $66.00 on this date! i’d say we did pretty good!

…and people say married med school students can’t afford to have any fun!

my overall point is, with a little creativity and some planning anyone can afford a date night here and there! no excuses! 🙂

what popped up in google images when i searched for “baby genius”. love it! 

my little man loves music so it was no surprise on our last road trip to utah that when he saw me listening to my music on my ipod touch that he wanted to listen as well. it was while thumbing through my playlists looking for something “2 year old” appropriate that i realized we don’t really own any kid music! uh oh!

since that moment of realization i’ve been keeping my eye out for toddler tunes and thanks to cuckoo for coupon deals i came across the following free downloads:

you can download 22 songs from baby genius. 18 here & 4 here. i am very excited to start incorporating these songs into our toddler time.

…and if you have older kids, or kids that like to listen to what you may be listening to, there are these 3 downloads from macy’s. mind you they are a little cheesy, but to me it sure beats my 2 year old listening to the original versions of these songs! 🙂 i’m all for my two year old staying a two year old! i don’t need a 2 year old going on 14, thank you very much! although sometimes it does seem like a lost cause with my little man who spends the majority of his time with lots of adults.

ps. if you are looking for free downloads for yourself you can download sister hazel’s latest here. apparently this group has been around for forever (well since 1993), i didn’t know of them until i saw this download, and actually i’m really really liking what i’ve heard so far. i figured for free why not give them a try and i have been pleasantly surprised.
