I am sure that all of you are aware of (and many of you have been affected by) the catastrophic weather that has severely scarred much of the Southeast. I have been working my hardest to get up some posts that will help you all help in the way you know best: by grocery shopping. Judging from the massive amount of e-mail from you all, I am not the only one who feels strongly about getting support out.
Here is a list of products that you can pick up cheaply to send to the charity of your choice. All of these deals are from stores that started their deals Sunday.
For stores that start their deals later this week (Publix, Bi-Lo, etc.), I’ll have a list up this Wednesday.

I have exciting news:
Swagbucks has added a ton of new gift cards that you can choose from to redeem your swagbucks! We used to only work towards Amazon cards, but now you can choose from a number of other places that are just as good.
Some of the new options:
$10 CVS gift card – 1,249 SB
$10 Home Depot gift card – 1,249 SB
$10 Macaroni Grill, On The Border and other Restaurants – 1,195 SB
$10 O’Charley’s gift card – 1,145 SB
$10 Fandango gift card – 1,175 SB
Don’t worry all the old options are still there.
My two favorites:
$10 Starbucks gift card – 1,300 SB
$5 Amazon gift card – 450 SB
These new options are fun to me, because you have a way to use your web searching to pay for things offline. Think free diapers, paper towels and more using CVS cards!
New to Swagbucks??
This is a search engine that you register for (free) and then earn swagbucks as you search or even shop online. Most folks that use it for all their searching can earn probably 50-75 swagbucks per week, that’s $5 gift card you earn every 5 weeks!
Learn more about how to earn swagbucks.
(You also earn swagbucks to refer friends and the link above is my referral link, just so ya know. Don’t want to click on it? That’s cool just go to swagbucks.com.)
(thanks Michelle!)

Here is yet another way to get free bowling for the summer:
Brunswick Bowling is offering one game of free bowling to students 18 and under every day through the months of June, July and August. All you have to do is join the Bonus Zone (which is free)!
If you don’t have a Brunswick Lane nearby, then check out Kids Bowl Free for another similar program and more participating lanes!
In case you think your kids are too little, most alleys can make bowling fun even for little ones. We’ve been taking advantage of free summer bowling for a number of years and started when my girls were 3.
As the summer approaches, I know that a lot of you are looking for fun ways to hang out with the family without involving the television. One of the absolute best options for fun family games is to go with Sportcraft.
I am sure that many of you might not know their name, but probably grew up playing foosball or table tennis on one of their tables. This summer, Sportcraft is offering a lot of great games that you might be interested in picking up as a Father’s Day present, a birthday gift, or maybe a just-because-its-summer treat. I promise it will be a gift that will keep on giving!
Sportcraft was kind enough to send me the Sportcraft Anywhere Table Tennis to try out for ourselves. I packed it up and took it to the beach with my family and we had a blast using it! It definitely lives up to its namesake and is easy to move around and set up while still maintaining durability. Even my girls, who aren’t exactly Table Tennis pros, had a great time just trying to make contact :)
Win It:
Sportcraft is giving one lucky winner a lot of fun stuff in their “Kickstart Summer” Game Pack valued around $100!
Here is what you could win:
Bean Bag Horseshoes
Anywhere Table Tennis
Soft Tip Sky Darts
Foldable Ladderball
Even if you don’t win this awesome prize pack, you can still get 25% off any product from Sportcraft when you use the promo code SUMMERGAMES (valid through August)!
To Enter:
Look at the products available in the Kickstart Summer Game Pack and tell me which one you think looks the most fun OR tell me about your favorite memories with a Sportcraft game!
The winner will be notified Tuesday 5/3.
For more information on Sportcraft, be sure to check out the Sportcraft Facebook page.
This giveaway is sponsored by SportCraft, but all opinions are still 100% mine.
