Money/Time Saving Ideas:

Cleanup
My daughter drew all over herself, my roll-top desk, notebook computer with
a blue permanent marker.  Mr. Clean Magic Eraser got it off the desk and
computer with a bit of elbow grease.  I just had to let you all know so when
your budding artist gives it a try, you can be ready! -- Halle, 32, from MN

Decorating
While shopping at Sears, I was told all Sears stores are "shutting down"
their paint departments.  You might want to continue to look for clearance
items on paint, brushes, etc.  I was told they would all close within the
next 3-6 months. -- Sid, 42, from NC

Birthdays
I got this tip from a lady at the bulk grocery store.  She was buying a very
large pinata.  When I commented on how much candy it would take to fill it,
she said, "I fill it with half candy and half cheerios.  Otherwise it would
weigh 200 pounds.  Plus, after the kids pick out all the candy, the birds
and squirrels can eat the cereal, and there are no plastic sparkles to
pollute the ground."  -- Caroline, 39, from CA

Deals for Moms:  Discounts from Newsletter Subscribers

Party Dilemma?
According to Mary L " I can never come up with any new or fun ideas when
entertaining, but Photofetti was the HIT of our daughters birthday party!
The photos turned into confetti were a great table decoration and wonderful
way for family and friends to see different photos of her through the years.
It was such a hit, the guests took it home with them. I did manage to save a
few for her scrapbook and Thank You notes! Can't wait to use it in my
holiday cards next." Check it out at www.photofetti.com. Free samples upon
request. Discount for
Mommysavers readers until October 31, 2004: Free shipping on all orders.

What's Cookin':  Christmas Morning Rolls

Frozen Dinner Rolls (you need 24 total)
1 sm. pkg. cook & serve butterscotch pudding
1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon

Arrange rolls in greased Bundt pan.  Sprinkle dry pudding mix over rolls.
Simmer butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon over low heat until sugar is
dissolved and mixture bubbles.  Pour mixture over rolls.  Cover tightly with
foil.  Leave on Kitchen counter overnight.  The next morning bake at 350
degrees for 30 minutes.  Allow to stand 5 minutes before flipping over onto
plate.

**I always make this for morning get-togethers and have not had any
complaints yet!  It is so good! -- Nichole, 26, from MI

Halloween Ideas

My daughter used Grampie's chef apron and hat used a large stainless steel
bowl and put a wooden spoon in it and went as a chef for Halloween. -- Ida,
50, from MA

For our son's first Halloween last year, we dressed him as a cowboy.  All I
had to buy was a hat ($3).  He wore jeans, a white shirt, and bandana that
we already had. This year he will be a Train Engineer. The overalls came
from a consignment shop for $2 and the hat was only $2. The best thing is
how no one else is dressed like him! -- Allison, 27, from KY

Real Moms:  Organization

Use the clear plastic shoe organizers that hang on the backs of doors for
nick-nacks.  I have one in my broom closet that I use for paint brushes,
extra plastic bags, shoe laces, light bulbs, you name it. -- Monica, 26,
from WA

I believe in labeling everything. Making lists keeps me motivated. Getting
rid of everything you haven't used in a year. -- Pam, 31, from GA

Figure out a way to help your child have his or her toys out on shelves or
in bins so that he or she can see and play with them.  If you just have one
big toy box, most children will not make it to the bottom of the box while
playing, especially if they are young.  Thus, many of their toys do not get
played with.  It makes a difference in our home in how it feels that he has

so many toys if he is at least playing with them. -- Suzanne, 35, from TX
