Yummy Breakfast Bars

This post brought to you by Quaker Oats. All opinions are 100% mine.

I love to have oatmeal for breakfast but don't always have the time to make it and eat it. I don't ever have the time in the morning to make a full breakfast with eggs and orange juice but it's still important to me to eat a healthy breakfast. But sometimes I have to run out the door and only have time to grab my coffee. 

A great alternative is to grab a bar and eat it in the car on the way to work with my coffee. A great and delicious way to grab a quick breakfast snack.

But the trick is finding a healthy bar that is a good addition to breakfast and will leave you energized and full. Some are so full of sugar and unhealthy that you basically should just eat a donut for all the good it does. But not with these breakfast bars.

The banana nut bread bars look so delicious! And with just 140 calories, 5g of fiber, and 6g of protein this is an excellent bar! I know my husband would love the Cinnamon Pecan Bread bars!

What makes these bars so yummy and appealing is that they are made from REAL fruit and nuts not just processed look alikes, they are really a wholesome food

Shopping Frugally in your Neighborhood

This post brought to you by Dollar General. All opinions are 100% mine.

When I first heard the name Dollar General, I first thought of a generic dollar store, with flimsy toys that break minutes after opening and cheap non-brand items. So I didn't know what to expect when I took my first trip to a Dollar General store. 

When my hubby and I first walked in, the first thing I noticed was name brand bathroom cleaning products and a fridge aisl with milk and other brand name food products.

As we began looking around the store we saw other quality name brand products as well as a really nice store brand. 

Hubby and I are moving in two weeks so we headed into the store with the intent of getting cleaning products and some items for moving. 

For just $20.68 we walked out with all of this!

We got high efficiency laundry detergent, multi surface cleaner, two rolls of packing tape, trash bags, mr. clean magic eraser clothes, a picture hanging kit, paper plates, and two bug cans of diced tomatoes...all for $20.68. 

I was so surprised by the prices! We walked around for a few minutes realizing this will quickly become a store that we frequently shop at.

We went to a store in Montclair, CA is just opened. Check if there is a Dollar General near you: Dollar General in California. And visit their facebook page for sales and coupons: Dollar General Facebook

Favorite Neighborhood Drugstore Offer Helps During Dispute

This post brought to you by Walgreens. All opinions are 100% mine.

Walgreens is a favorite neighborhood drugstore of many but they have recently lost a negotiation that will have many negative effects on those in our communities, the cost of prescription drugs and even military families. 

Walgreens was negotiating a new contract with Express Script, a popular pharmacy provider that works with health insurances declined negotiations and as of January 1, 2012, Walgreens is no longer part of the their in network. You can the details of this at Walgreens and Express Script

Ultimately this means that those who use Express Script's and who have used Walgreens for years and have built relationships with their pharmacist will have to relocate to a new pharmacy that is possibly farther away and could potentially cost more per prescription. And as a result the neighborhood pharmacy could start to be diminished because of Express Script's push to use mail order prescription plans. 

Walgreens doesn't want to see communities and individuals hurt this way so they have developed the Walgreens Prescription Savings Club. They are offering a special prescription savings club to ease the burden of higher costs and farther distances to new pharmacy's. For $5 per individual or $10 per family, Walgreens customers can become members that allow them to receive discount prices on their prescriptions. 

So if this Express Script and Walgreens dispute has left you facing higher prescription costs and inconvenient pharmacy options, then hurry in by January 31, 2012 to sign up for the Walgreens Prescription Savings Club

You can also join me and follow Walgreens on Twitter and Walgreens on Facebook to stay updated on the latest news and offers from Walgreens.
