Famous Footwear 15% Off & BOGO

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Famous Footwear. All opinions are 100% mine.

 

 

I got to go back, back, back to school again....(I know I might have just aged myself if you know what movie that song is from). Anyone? 

August, man time flies.  School starts for us in a few weeks.  I know for many of you school may already be in session. Did you get your school clothes shopping done?  Me neither.  We haven't even started.  Such a procrastinator.  I am waiting for the good deals that I know have to be coming soon...I hope, because summer has been expensive and this mom could use all the help I can get with saving some cash!    Alas, I found one just in the nick of time...

Famous Footwear has a BOGO + 15% off Famous Footwear Coupon sale going on from 8/2-8/18.  They have hundreds of brands of shoes and styles for your back to school shopping.  Their stores are easy to get in and out of for a quick shopping adventure.

And if you don't find what you are looking for in stock, they can order it and ship it to the nearest store at no charge OR directly to you at home.  SCORE!  (How cool is that?)  And If day light hours are scarce you can order on their website, in the middle of the night, when you should be sleeping.  Just sayin!

 

Join the Famous Footwear rewards program for extra discounts and perks PLUS earn 1 point for every $1.00 you spend; accumulate points to apply towards gift certificates to use down the road.  How does that sound?

 

 

Don't forget to print your coupon soon!  The sale is from 8/2/12-8/18/12.

 

Happy shoe shopping!

Six Word Saturday

Trying to beat the heat here!

(One glass at a time)

It is suppose to be 90 here today.  That is very HOT for us Oregonians.

My dad lives in Arizona and he tells me that is a cool day for them.

I know.

I shouldn't be complaining though

because in a month or so it will start getting cold

and I will be wishing it was warm again.

To beat the heat I think we are going to

head out early to our local Farmers Market

and then head out to The Gorge

this afternoon for some sight seeing,

maybe some wine tasting? 

We haven't done that in awhile. 

Did you know that in my former life (ha!) I used to do in home wine tastings.

I had so much fun, met tons of new people and of course, drank A LOT of great wine.  Now I am not a wine snob by any means but I do know a little bit about it.

Oregon has some of the *best* wineries around and from Portland

you can go west to a mecca of them (as you head to the coast) 

or go east to the Columbia River Gorge for even more. 

Take your pick.

Confessions Of A Non Superwoman #22

1.  I am typing this blog post as my children eat dinner, without me.   Mommy really needed a time out after the 250th, "Dinner almost done, mommy" from my darling, sweet, very talkative 2 year old.

2.  My son, loves watermelon, loves, loves, loves it so much...that I found a rind in his room.  Not sure what I was doing when he snuck that in there at some point during the past two days.  Hmmm...Big fat fail on supervision skills.

3.  Yesterday, it was so nice outside, I splurged and bought a carton of DQ Dilly Bars to bring home for outdoor snack time.  Hayden, he had two.  I let him.  Not sure what possessed me to do that.  Maybe the whining and crying made me crack. Yup.  I was tired.of.the.whining.and.crying.  I gave in.  I know, I did a bad, bad thing.

4.  I have pictures in a box that I have yet to hang up or display.  The box is sitting in the living room still.  We have lived here since mid May so plenty of time, right? 

5.  Clothes washing, apparently not my strong point lately....a couple things have come out of the washer with blue spots.  Maybe because of the blue shorts I was anxious to wash to wear?  My bad.

Where is my maid, my butler, my chauffeur, my chef, my nanny for that matter when I need them?  If you could choose one of those, cost not being an issue, what would you choose and why?  Drop me a comment.

Revenge Of The Vegetarian Book Review

I AM a Vegetarian. 

That sounds so all consuming.  It is like IT (vegetarianism) is what defines me and who I AM.

I might as well be from another planet.  Can you see the little broccoli antennas coming out of my forehead?  So many misconceptions and untruths about vegetarianism can be cleared up in this satire take on a vegetarian lifestyle.

I was recently given the opportunity to review, Revenge Of The Vegetarian, by Jim Tilberry and I literally could not put it down. 


Jim, he covers everything from conversation starters (Tofu arm tattoo anyone?), removing "meat" out of your language (no more, "What am I chopped liver?"), ways to easily remove meat from your diet, your vegetarian horoscope (my favorite) to just in time for the Summer Games, the New Vegetarian Olympic Events.  Hummus Wrestling, who would have thought!  Got to love it!

It is a non stop ROFL (rolling on floor laughing) book that any vegetarian (or anyone with a sense of humor) can relate to.   I was hooting and hollering all the way to the produce section.

You can buy this book on Amazon right now for $11.95 and help support Jim and his vegetarian eating habits, lifestyle, whatever you want to call it. (You know buying "healthier" is more expensive...lol...he needs the money).
