Disney Movie Club


For the past 3 years, since my daughter was born, I have been contemplating joining the Disney Movie Rewards Club. I figured there had to be a catch. Why would Disney want to give movies away? So my mom, being the awesome mom and grandma that she is, signed my daughter up for the club. I just want to say that thus far, it is AWESOME!

You have the option of buying up to 7 movies the first time with FREE shipping. The first movie you pay $11.95 the second $8.95 and the rest just $0.20. Plus by using the code 30058 or 30161 we got a FREE Olaf blanket. (The blanket is thin, but perfect to keep in the car) You also get 100 Disney points per DVD, plus some of the DVDs are the 2 movie set. Like Mulan/Mulan 2. I was able to order a FREE Tinkerbell movie through the Disney Rewards Club with my points I received from these movies. The catch is, you have to buy at least 5 movies at regular price within 2 years. Shipping is only $3.95 for one movie and $1.95 for each additional movie. Note- this is not counting the first 7 movies you get to buy with FREE shipping!  Right after we got our first shipment of goodies in we got an email saying we can pre-order the new Tinkerbell DVD/Blueray/Digital Copy and it will count towards the regular price movie we need to buy. We pre-ordered it and Maleficent. Talk about cheap Christmas presents for my Disney loving daughter (and myself)   

Just click here to start your Disney Movie Collection. Don't forget to look up promo codes for FREE items! I think they are doing a FREE frozen lunchbox when you sign up now!


This is the receipt from the order

This week Walgreens has the 4 pack 2 ply toilet paper BOGO $1.79 making them just $0.90 a pack! Also, the Aquafina 20oz waters are $1 plus you get back a $1RR (Register Reward) making then FREE! What I did was purchase one Aquafina 20oz and then used the $1 RR towards my Toilet Paper purchase on my second transaction. -Water missing in photo, I was thirsty :) 

Excuse the bottom one being flipped, I had a helper

As of right now I don't have an opinion on the Toilet Paper, I haven't tried it. I bought this for the guest bathroom that my brother in law is currently using. I swear that child has depleted my Toilet Paper stockpile.

This week some Disney pajamas are on sale for $6.74 and the Joe Boxer are on sale for $4.49. By using my points from last week I am only spending a couple dollars on Disney pajamas for my daughter.

Homeschool - Making a Volcano the frugal way

Frugally Friendly Homeschool Volcano Project 

As some of you may or may not know, my brother in law, Zach is staying with us while his family makes the transition of moving from Ga to Tn. This is giving me the chance to homeschool Zach and I am loving it. To top off our Volcano Unit I decided it would be fun to make a volcano as the end of unit project. Being that I do everything on a budget/frugally I wanted to find something that is affordable to do with preferably all the materials on hand. Below is the how-to with photos. 



Ingredients:

Flour
Salt
Cooking Oil
Vinegar
Baking Soda
Liquid Detergent
Water
Food Coloring 
Plastic Bottle
Baking Pan or Large Flat Cardboard
Large Bowl 
Medicine Dropper 


In a large bowl mix 2 cups of sat, 6 cups of flour, 4-tablespoons of oil and 2 cups of water.


Mix ingredients together. If needed, add water. 


Place bottle in the middle of pan or cardboard and place your mixture around the bottle working upwards. 


Keep the lid on so the mixture doesn't get in the bottle, but don't cover the lid.  

Remove lid and add a few drops of food coloring (Zach added 4 drops of red and it turned out pink)
Add 6 drops of laundry detergent. (We used a medicine dropper to measure) 


Add 2 tablespoons of Baking Soda 



SLOWLY Pour Vinegar into your bottle




Directions
- In a large bowl mix 2 cups of sat, 6 cups of flour, 4-tablespoons of oil and 2 cups of water.
Mix ingredients together. If needed, add water. 
- Fill bottle halfway with water
- Place bottle in the middle of pan or cardboard and place your mixture around the bottle working upwards. 
- Keep the lid on so the mixture doesn't get in the bottle, but don't cover the lid.  
- Remove lid and add a few drops of food coloring 
- Add 6 drops of laundry detergent. (We used a medicine dropper to measure)
- Add 2 tablespoons of Baking Soda
- Slowly pour Vinegar into the bottle
