Free Kraft Mac & Cheese

I just came from the Kraft website where they have a fun spin ‘n’ win game called Noodlette.  You can play as many times as you want to win free Mac & Cheese.  I cashed out at the 500-pt level and received a coupon for .55 off 2 boxes.  If you want to try for a higher score then don’t cash out too early or it will tell you that you’ve already won your prize for the day.  Update (1/6) – this appears to be a lifetime win – so if you like playing the game go for the 3000 points as long as you can!

I am inspired. An easy project to recycle scrapbook paper I might not ever use.

I have recently gone through my scrapbook paper collection and sorted what I could. I have a catch-all box for the items that are not really solid, or not really themed…in other words, I may or may not ever use them. In the spirit of minimizing and getting rid of things, I really should Freecycle them. But just as that thought occurred, lo and behold, I found this delightful thrifty gift idea that serves as both recycled and homemade.

Elmer’s Glue has some great craft ideas on their site. These are called Holiday Gift Wrappers, but I am pretty sure I’ll be finding sales on candy bars and giving them all year around. Enjoy!  Click here for instructions

But I’m so excited because little did I realize that there Kindles for everything!…a free download called Kindle for PC (which is now loaded on my laptop); another called Kindle for BlackBerry (which I also downloaded); and, another called Kindle for iPhone which I promptly sent to my daughter for her to download on her device.  So while I may ask for the portable Kindle for Christmas, I am now set to electronically read.

BTW, there is also a Kindle for iPad and Kindle for Android, too.

Finding something fun and exciting to download on my new electronic media will never be a problem…I like to read everything!  But it just so happens that Amazon has many literary classics available to download for FREE!  Check out these Kindle versions and enjoy!

The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson
Gulliver’s Travels by Jonathan Swift
The Iliad by Homer
Dracula by Bram Stoker
Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll
Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne
Little Women by Louisa May Alcott
Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens
and many more!!!

Here’s a thought provoking question for most of you…what was the last literary classic that you read?   I’m almost afraid to say that I can’t think of the last one I read…yet.

Summer’s just about over, but that’s a perfect time to find sales on beach towels!  Lots of markdowns.  Or maybe you have a beach towel in the linen closet that hasn’t been used in awhile.
