It's BIRTHDAY TIME

In honor of my birthday today . . . I thought I'd put a list up here of all the birthday clubs you can subscribe to . . . my inbox is bursting with coupons for free food items for my birthday!  Looks like I won't have to cook for a week!  Sign up well before your birthday because many of the sites require 4-6 weeks processing before you can receive anything.  Each is a coupon that will be mailed to you or e-mailed to you unless otherwise noted.  Click on the name to sign up.

Home Depot Kids Workshops

Home Depot Kids Workshop will be held this weekend at all Home Depot stores from 9-noon. They will be making a school bus pencil organizer this week (great back to school project!) Workships are designed for children ages 5-12. Go here fore more details, but no sign up is necessary.

"The workshops teach children do-it-yourself skills and tool safety, while at the same time helping to instill a sense of accomplishment. Additionally, this fun time allows for quality one-on-one time between adults and children."

In addition to the newly constructed project kit, each child receives a kid-sized orange apron, similar to The Home Depot associates' aprons, and an achievement pin.
