"At work, you think of the children you have left at home. At home, you
think of the work you've left unfinished. Such a struggle is unleashed
within yourself. Your heart is rent." -- Golda Meir

Money/Time Saving Ideas:

Rebate Clubs
Walgreens has a rebate offer each month.  With a lot of things, your rebate
equals the purchase price.  If you take a gift card as your rebate, you get
10% more. It's like getting it free! Dorothy, 72, from TX

Swim Diapers
I mentioned this tip to some other moms at a splash park the other day when
speaking of the expense of swim diapers, and I was surprised they hadn't
thought of it: Since swim diapers really only hold solids in, if not used
for that purpose, they can be "recycled," i.e. rinsed/washed and reworn. I
have even run them through the washer and dryer 2-3 times - they hold up
really well. I would not do this if they had gotten poopy, of course. This
has really helped because we are frequently (daily!) at the pool or
beach. -- Jamie, 32, from FL

Homemade Toys
Save your empty liquid laundry detergent measuring caps.  They work great as
bath toys and outdoor sandbox toys. If you buy a variety of brands of
detergents you can collect a neat assortment of colors - green, blue, pink,
clear. My 2 year old son loves to dump and scoop and pour water from them
and into them.  Then when the caps wear out - simply recycle them! -- Julie,
27, from MN

What's Cookin': Crescent Dogs

My son was getting tired of the same old hot dog and bun lunch. So I tried
something knew and the whole family loves it. It's my inexpensive version of
Auntie Ann's new pretzel dogs.  All you need are hot dogs, cheese and
crescent dinner rolls ~the ones in the can that you "pop" open and bake. You
can use whichever brands you want.  Roll out the crescent so it's flat,
place the piece of cheese on top and the put the hot dog in and roll it up
so the hot dog is covered by the crescent and cheese. Bake it in the oven
per the directions for the crescent rolls and Voila! --you have a yummy new
way to enjoy hot dogs!  -- Melissa, 28, from OH

Real Moms:  Uses for Shoe Racks

If you have a front closet with a regular door, hang a shoe rack with the
pockets on the inside.  We use it to keep all of the stuff you need for
outside.  Sunblock, lip balm, sunglasses, mittens, hats, coupons, pens,
paper,etc.  Anything I might needs as I'm walking out the door.  It also
works great for kids, you put there things in the lower pockets. -- Tara,
31, from Shakopee MN

Back of door PLASTIC SHOE RACKS: There are 24 clear plastic pockets so you
can see everything you put in there.  I have 1 on the back of most of my
closet doors. BABY'S ROOM:  hair bows, hats,clippers, etc.  COMPUTER ROOM:
Office supplies and computer items.  GUEST BEDROOM:  My cards are organized
there, pillowcases, winter scarves and hats.  -- Kelly, 34, from Port St.
Lucie, FL
