This DELICIOUS recipe comes from Sarah at A Thrifty Mom!

Thanks, Sarah

When I was little I was addicted to sugar…but now that I am an adult I am more excited about a good salad, than dessert. But this recipe is one of those that still makes me want to eat the whole pan, I LOVE them!

035

Start out by smashing one package of graham crackers ( not the whole box just one of the clear packages inside)

020

Once you get the crackers all smashed up, put in the bottom of a 9X13 pan

pour one stick of melted butter on top

021

Take a fork and make sure the cracker crumbs are well coated with butter

022

Then press down in a flat even layer in the bottom of the pan.

Place in an oven at 350 degrees for 12 min

this will create a crust

031

While still hot out of the oven pour one can of sweet and condensed milk ( not evaporated)

Pour in a thin even layer over the whole crust

033

Top with what ever you like, I use about 1/2 a cup of the following

  • chocolate chips
  • peanut butter chips
  • nuts or ( i use sunflower seeds, my friend who had a daughter allergic to nuts made it this way and I LOVE it so, I have never switched back)
  • coconut
  • M&Ms candys

034

While still hot place back in a 350 degree oven and bake for another 25-35 mins till edges are golden brown. Let cool at least 30 mins…..and enjoy

036

This is what Matt and I did to the pan in ONE night……I am telling you this is one of my favorites! Hope you enjoy them too.

Pay it Forward – Take them a Meal

A number of my friends have been using this program for families with new babies, families that have had surgeries, and families who have lost loved ones. I have been fortunate enough to receive this service twice now (thanks to the delivery of two very special little babies…What a blessing!)
.
Take them a Meal is a website that allows you to send out a username and password to a bunch of your contacts. Friends sign up for different dates to bring a family a meal. It gives you a place to list your phone and email address (for a reminder) as well as a list of what you are making for the family (so repeat meals are not made.) Not only do you know what dates are available for a family who needs meals, but the family who recives the meals know who is coming each day, what they are bringing and has a contact number for them if needed.
.
Check out Take Them a Meal. I hope you find it as useful as my friends and I have…and thank you to all my friends who are keeping us fed over these few weeks – boy would my husband and little girl starve without your help!
.
Pay it Forward!

Guest Post – How Do You Save Money on Ink?

We are in the business of finding all the great deals for you, helping you cut the cost of your shopping bill & we are always telling you to go here and print this coupon, but how can we cut the costs on our ink usage? Here are a few ideas on things you can do to help cut your printing costs:

1) Refill your ink cartridges. In my town there is a local shop that fills them for ½ of what it would have cost to buy a new one. Check around your area, you can even find refill stations in your local mall. Walgreen’s refills your cartridges for $10-$15 typically. Also you can recycle your old ink cartridges at Staples & they will give you a $3 voucher which you can then use toward a new one!

2) Use recycled paper for your printing. This can include the kid’s leftover assignments from school, scrap papers, newsletters, etc. Any paper with a blank backside. I simply turn them over and print on the back. When using clean brand spanking new white paper I print coupons on both sides…You know how you print off a coupon and it has a whole bunch of writing below it….what a waste! I print another single coupon on the other side running the opposite direction. My printer even does a great thing: When I am printing a single coupon, right after it shows the coupon coming out of my printer I can hit cancel and it doesn’t print all that extra wording. Saves ink there!

3) Set your printer to “draft quality”. Simply go into your printer settings and select options and adjust accordingly. This uses half the ink and you still get the full coupon printout effect. I also print my coupons in black ink only. Color ink is so much more expensive to purchase, so not using color saves me a lot of money there. I haven’t had a coupon denied yet due to the fact that I print in black only.

Do you have other helpful ways to save money on your printing costs?
