This is a reminder that tomorrow, Saturday 5/11, the Stamp Out Hunger campaign will celebrate it’s 21st year of collection, and it’s easy to participate! All you need to do is collect non-perishable food items, place them in a bag, and leave them out by your mailbox for your postal carrier to pick up Saturday.
The items will be donated to food banks and pantries. Perhaps you have too much of a particular item(s) thanks to couponing that you would be willing to donate!
There is a designated bag that some will receive in the mail today, but if you don’t receive the bag, it’s okay to use one that you have available on hand.
Some suggested items for donation include:
Peanut Butter
Canned Fish
Packaged Dried Fruits
Boxes of Cereal
Any kind of shelf stable item
For more information you can check out the Stamp Out Hunger website.
This week we did great. I sent my husband to the store on Tuesday and the first time he stayed strictly on list and didn’t come with anything unexpected (which usually equals costly). He did grab some bulk items where I probably would have gotten the smaller package (remember many coupons are good on any size package and usually make the smaller items the best deal). I’m not complaining though, I had a busy day and he was totally up for the challenge, he even took 3 kids with him! Maybe that was my mother’s day present…
I also ran into CVS to grab the money maker nail polish and a few other things.
Food Lion
Total before sales and coupons: $93.12
Total Spent: $62.18
Total Saved: $30.94
He was sent mostly for bread, milk and produce. The savings was on a few BOGO items and other sales with a couple coupons thrown in. I’m pleased though.
CVS
Total before sales and coupons: $20.47
Total Spent: $2.89
ECB Remaining: $5
That is a makes me happy kinda trip! Left with two nail polishes and a free Physicians Formula powder.

Recently I got an email about one of the strangest sounding products – Toe Juice. The weird name alone was enough to pull me in and research it and give a Toe Juice review. A quick search on Amazon showed rave reviews and that it cures a number of skin issues. After reading all the reviews I then spent a week or so wondering if it was going to be a scene out of the movie My Big Fat Greek wedding… was I going to walk around and put Toe Juice on every ailment?
The folks at Toe Juice sent me a bottle to try for myself. I was pretty excited to try it out, after all it’s claims for curing:
Acne
Ringworm
Warts
Cracked Skin
Eczema
Insect Bites
(And so much more!)
We don’t have any big skin issues in our house, but I used Toe Juice for a week for some dry skin on my feet and it really did work! Just use it consistently ever day and you’ll start to see results. We also used it on insect bites (we have a lot of those now that we live in the sticks) and it worked great to take out the redness and relieve the itching and other symptoms.
I know that it seems weird to use something called “Toe Juice” on your face, but I let a friend dry this for an acne problem and she started to see results after only three uses. It does have an odd smell, kind of like a strong alcohol-based makeup remover. It’s not a bad smell, just don’t expect it to smell super sweet.
Just like with any skincare, one product doesn’t necessarily work for every single person, but at only $4.99 for a small bottle at Amazon, it’s worth a shot! Especially if someone in your family has been trying everything to solve eczema, acne or another problem!
The Giveaway:
5 Southern Savers readers are going to win a Toe Juice Signature Package.
To Enter:
Leave a comment with a reason you would love to try out Toe Juice! (Even if it’s just to have something in the guest medicine cabinet that makes our guests laugh!)
This giveaway was hosted by Toe Juice, but all opinions are 100% my own.
