Product Features

Elmo comes with his very own microphone and two instruments – a tambourine and a drum set.

Preschoolers can choose which instrument Elmo plays, and he “magically” recognizes which one you give him.

For even more rockin’ fun, Elmo also interacts with other LET’S ROCK instruments (each sold separately); he knows when you’re playing the LET’S ROCK Guitar, Keyboard or Microphone and plays along with you!

The LET’S ROCK Elmo toy sings six rockin’ songs, so grab an instrument and join Elmo’s band!

Figure comes with microphone, tambourine, drums and instructions.

If you have a child who just can’t get enough of Elmo, grab the Best of Elmo’s World DVD Collection for just $17.09 shipped FREE with Prime. That works out to $5.69 per disc.

This giveaway is closed. Congratulations goes to Kim, Misty, Melinda!

The last school bell is ringing, the sun is in the sky creating longer days, and heat and pools are among us. What does that mean? Beach, Backyard BBQs, and summer!

Sam’s wants to kick off summer with creative recipes and baskets for your summertime fun! Sam’s Club simplifies meal planning by providing easy recipes, great outdoor items.

Sam’s Club has put together some GREAT recipes that I wanted to share with you below.

Blackberry Lemonade Cocktail

Serves 10

3 cups vodka
6 cups Members Blackberry flavored lemonade
2 cups pineapple juice
Lime wedges for garnish if desired
4 cups ice

In a drinks dispenser filled with ice, pour vodka, blackberry lemonade, and pineapple juice. Mix well and serve.

Potato Pouches

2 sheets aluminum foil
2lbs. red bliss potatoes
½ cup olive oil
3 tbsp. Dijon mustard
¼ cup fresh dill chopped
½ tsp. salt
½ tsp. freshly ground pepper

In a small bowl mix together olive oil, mustard, dill, salt and pepper. Lay a sheet of foil on counter.

Rinse potatoes and cut in quarters lay them on the bottom sheet of foil. Pour marinade evenly over potatoes, coating well. Place second sheet of foil on top of potatoes. Gather the top and bottom pieces of foil and starting on one side, fold over the edges twice towards the center, continue until all the edges are turned. This creates a pouch for cooking the potatoes. Place foil pouch directly on the grill. And cook for 15-20 minutes until potatoes are crispy and browned.

Corn salad

2 tbsp. lime juice
3 tbsp. white vinegar
3 tbsp. chopped fresh cilantro
½ tsp. salt
½ pepper
½ cup olive oil
3 cups fresh corn kernels

Affordable and Creative Teacher Gifts

July 8, 2021 by Ashley at Frugal Coupon Living Filed Under: Education, Online Shopping

Well with April, we are approaching the end of the year. I wanted to share with you the Creative and Affordable Teach Gifts that I wrote for Baby Cheapskate.

Labels: Teachers will have to pack up and move many things. To easily identify their belonging, these FREE 140 ct of labels is great. Shipping adds around $3.

Postcards: Teachers often have to send home notes. Having a generic note, perhaps with their first name on the front, their classroom grade, school mascot/name, etc makes a nice personalized card. Pick up 100 for FREE! Shipping adds around $5.

Business Cards: Business Cards are great for teachers to share contact information with one another or with parents. Pick up 250 for FREE! Shipping adds around $5.

Flip Books: Make them a small flip book of the year. Combine with this great Snapfish offer. Buy one book and get two for FREE! You can also pick up a FREE Flip Book with around $4 S&H.

Gift Cards: Use services like Groupon, Living Social, or Eversave to find deals for your area. If you get credit to a restaurant/spa use that certificate price to go buy a gift card.

Daily Deal Sites: I find that Rue La La, One Kings Lane, Jasmere, and Gilt are great daily deal sites. Check back each day to see what new items they have as unique gifts. Shopping now ensures arrival in time for the end of the year.

Closed. Holiday Giveaway – Vtech MobiGo System #wingiveaways

November 18, 2010 by Ashley at Frugal Coupon Living Filed Under: Giveaways, Holiday2010, Review, Win Giveaways

This giveaway is closed. Congratulations, Laura R!

From early on as parents we realized our kids did not always like their toys. Remote controls, phones, and ipods were the gadgets of choice – even at 6 months of age. We have come from us, parents who lived in a generation of prehistoric computers, now to our children who are using gadgets at the same time of learning to walk. Technology has definitely evolved.

One of my favorite evolutions is technology that allows kids to have fun while still learning but engaging in cognitive thinking and other areas of the brain. VTech’s MobiGo is a HOT item this season for just that. Geared toward children ages 3 to 8, this item retails at $59.99. These hot games include characters from Cars, Disney Princesses, Shrek, Toy Story and more! This gadget emulates kid’s parent’s technology. With touch-activated screen and featuring games like Disney and Dora, kids can slide, flick, and tap their way to fun via colors, spelling, math, shapes and more. As if its use wasn’t easy enough, finding it is easy too. Sold in major retailers including Amazon, Toys R Us, Target, etc.

If VTech’s MobiGo doesn’t interest you, perhaps one of their other products from infants, to preschool to grade school might. Choose among their Jungle Gym Bike, V.Smile Motion, KidiZoom Camera, Bugsby Reading system and more. One of the features on their site I really enjoy is their product demo. I get frustrated at stores when I see a product in packaging that I cannot touch. Especially if I am paving the way and no friend’s kids have the product or me to demo. Online, you can get a clip sharing the different features of the products as if you were playing it yourself.

VTech is providing one lucky Frugal Coupon Living reader a MobioGo Touch Learning System and two games.

Guess what, for every 50 entries or comments or trackbacks on each of their posts, VTech will donate one product (up to three) to the Ronald McDonald House Charities! That means by entering, you are giving back!

Land O Lakes & Box Tops for Education

August 23, 2010 by FrugalCouponLiving Filed Under: Pay It Forward

School is back! And Land O Lakes wants you to know that they are now a partner with Box Tops for Education. I’m sure many of you are good Boxtop clippers. I have to admit that since I don’t have kids in the local public schools yet, I really haven’t paid much attention to this great program.

Box Tops for Education is a program that takes the Box Tops (the trademarked logo with the points) from participating products and credits your school with the amount they’ve allotted for each top you turn in. Land O Lakes Box Tops are worth 10 cents each.

For more info on Box Tops for Education and the participating products, go to their web site. You’ll be able to create your own account and register it for your school(s), print valuable coupons for Box Top products, etc.

At the beginning of the new school year, most schools are working hard to get the campaign out in front of the parents. Be sure to find out how your school prefers you turn them in and make it a regular activity with your child(ren). What a great way to make your frugal shopping deals go even farther!
