Today only, Vistaprint has a great deal running for FREE Photo Flip Books!
These books are great for stocking stuffers or to put on your coffee table. My girls and I love flipping through older pictures of them and remembering the people and places we’ve visited.
As with most Vistaprint deals, you will still owe shipping, which was $5.91 for me.
If you signed up for Rue La La and have the $10 credit burning a hole in your pocket, there are some nice deals for kids today! This Art Case from Alex Toys is on sale now for $9.90 (originally $19.95). (Find them under the kids tab).
You have to pay the shipping, but one of the things I love about Rue La La is that once you’ve ordered something and paid shipping, you get free shipping all month!
If you haven’t signed up yet, you still have time to get the $10 FREE credit. It can take up to 48 hours to appear in your account so while you can’t use it for this deal, you’ll be ready for the next one.
At the beginning of November I was invited to visit the Smucker’s headquarters and learn a little more about them. I was actually one of the few bloggers that wasn’t a “foodie” but it was great to get my hands dirty in the kitchen and have fun making new things. The video above is just one of the cool things that the folks at Smucker’s taught me – like how to make ice cream without the ice cream maker (see recipe)! I also made my first real pie crust (yes make fun) which turned out great.
I think actually you’d be amazed to see what brands are actually made by Smucker’s, it’s not just jams and jelly! To name just a few: Jif, Millstone, Dunkin Donuts, Hungry Jack, Crisco, White Lily, Martha White, Pillsbury (baking aisle)… and many more. The most fun part of the trip was learning what you can make with some of these products. They have amazing test kitchen that dreams up the most tasty recipes. My favorite was their cookie starter mix that you mix up and then keep in the fridge or freezer. It can make over 30 different cookies with one core base starter!
One other favorite part of the trip was realizing that there are more products out there than our stores sell. My new favorite spread is Smucker’s Orchards Finest triple berry!! Sadly this isn’t sold in any of our stores, but I can at least be a happier person having tasted it and knowing it’s out there.
To celebrate our trip, they wanted to provide one of you with an Around the Family Table with Smucker’s Gift Basket. It’s a hefty basket with so many goodies to help you get ready for the holidays.
