So, there are a bunch of case lot sales going on right now. Some of you all ready might know about this site. But, a friend of mine shared this link with me, and I thought you all might enjoy too.
Basically she has organized each item into stores/prices so you can figure out where you can get the best deal.

Happy Case Lotting!

Clipping Coupons and Driving for Cow
I have been wondering how the Alberston's buyout would change the coupon situation... not too much I guess?! Anybody have info that would throw a wrench in our coupon world?
Many of you know about the Redplum coupons... I paid for a year subscription, so it sucks for me I guess!
For those of you who are thinking about getting the newspaper for coupons...
FYI- the Deseret News is no longer carrying Redplum coupons
FYI- the Daily Herald still does.
(I don't want to get in trouble... I'm not saying don't get the Deseret News... just don't expect all the coupons!)
I found another great website (FREE) for anyone who's into the coupon shopping. It is just one store, no running around town. I will keep ya'll posted on how good the info is!
Also... has anyone traveled to our nearest Buy Low? I know of the one in Provo... is there one closer? Rumor has it that their deals on meat are worth the drive! One day a week they have a crazy sale on produce, and one day a week on meat.
I'm kind of picky about my produce... but I figure if I hit the sale once a month, I can freeze the meat and use it whenever. I'm going to check it out. If anybody wants to come with... we can load up the mini-van and save on gas :)

**I've had a few questions on the co-op.
The Church will not allow a site, and a little bird told me that the School District won't either. Sooooo... that eliminates those. My only other thought is the businesses right in the entry to HH? If I'm feeling friendly, I'll maybe stop by and see what we've got down there. Pretty much... the business owner would either have to be REALLY into the co-op thing, or just REALLY, REALLY nice about sharing their space with us! Odds are not good for either.
... so there you go!

Gardens and Food Rotation
Okay... summer's over, so I want to see some more action around here ;)
A few things...
How's the garden thing going? Any tips or good info for growing a good garden in our are? I had killer grasshoppers this year! I'm still not sure what I need to grow to supplement feeding my family. And even the things I've tried are hit and miss.
My tomatoes are coming in good now (Good for sandwiches and salads) My onions are getting there.
Does anyone do canning? If so, what do you can/bottle?
Another thing...
I have a constant struggle rotating my food storage. Not the regular stuff so much, specifically the church #10 can stuff.
Does anyone have recipes or tips on using ANY of the following...
potato pearls
regular oats
powdered milk
rice
and of course the dreaded... hard wheat!
I remember some wheat recipes from a few months back, thanks! I just need all the help I can get. (but that's not a surprise to anyone I'm sure!)
Sherian :)
PS- Would anyone be interested in a group canning get-together. I've got some 50 lb. bags of milk and sugar I need to put in #10 cans. We can rent the sealer from the church cannery and have a party! (you can order things to can from the church, just check out the Provident Living website for prices and what's available.)
