First, I subscribe to THREE Sunday newspapers---that's right--THREE of them. This triples my Sunday coupons. The cost for the extra papers is nothing compared to the extra savings. Just recently, I had 3 coupons for three FREE Pledge "Grab its" Mopping Systems....three of them! One is for me and two are now Christmas gifts! Secondly, I type my grocery list and save it on my computer. It is now 18 pages long! Don't panic....I type each category alphabetically such as "Aluminum Foil", "Bread", "Cosmetics", "Dishwashing Liquid", etc.....Then beside of each "topic" I list all coupons relating to that item. Then as they expire, I delete them and add new ones. Yes, it takes time, but honestly, it is worth it. I shop every two weeks and for the last 5 years or so, I've saved between $80 and $200 each time I shop! That makes the "work" worth the effort! -- Sharon, 37, from VA Child Care Trade shopping days with a neighbor or friend. You baby sit for her kids so she can do "KID-FREE" shopping, and then she does the same for you. You will get your shopping done in half the time, and get to do some things you just cant do with the kids along (like trying on bathing suits in a tiny dressing room)! -- Paula, 35, from MI Cooking Instead of buying expensive ground beef - I buy cheaper frozen ground turkey and when I use it for spagetti sauce or chili, etc...I brown it just like ground beef and then add a couple of beef bullion cubes to the sauce and it really taste great - no one even notices the difference (except my husband doesn't get the heartburn he always gets when real beef is used!!) -- Anne, 41, from NJ We need YOUR tips for our newsletter!

By Wendy Lomano Our youngest son enters first grade this fall. Our older son will be in third grade. And I'm an at-home mother. "What are you going to do with yourself, since both boys will be in school full time?" is a question I've heard quite frequently in the past few months.

Glue the picture onto a piece of cardboard that has been cut to the same size. When dry, let your child cut the picture into pieces to create her own puzzle. Puzzles are great for helping your child recognize shapes - a prerequisite to learning letters and numbers.
