Great Deal at YMCA

Okay with only 3 more days left until summer break I was getting worried about the high price of keeping my kids from being bored all summer. We don't have a neighborhood pool and the park is very basic for even elementary age kids. Gym memberships are through the roof, summer camps don't really cater to Jr High and High school kids.

I decided to check out my local YMCA. We had been members several years ago, but the kids were too young to be left alone for the day and I always had to be with them, which didn't always work since I have a real job too. I found out some awesome things! They (my youngest two) are now both old enough to be there by themselves. They can go as many days as they want, no limits. They can use the pool and work out rooms. They can take classes for a reduced fee. My oldest (a full time college student) also can join in as a "kid" vs "adult" so I get a better rate!

It works out to $70 a month for the four of us, one adult and kids, at our local Y. Of course there are other plans, like if you want to be able to go to any Y in the city, and they even have scholarships if your income is less than $50K. And if I get there before Monday I will save the normal $100 family registration fee too!

Wisk Detergent Deal at Kroger

 

Currently Kroger stores have the Wisk on sale for $3.99 which is a decent price. You can make the deal even better by liking them on facebook and printing the $1 coupon from their page. You can print it twice per computer. In addition there was a $2 coupon in this past weeks paper.

As an added bonus you will get a $2 catalina coupon when you buy it, making it FREE or only $1 after coupons and catalina! I am not sure if you buy multiples at once if you will get more than one $2 catalina back, so it is best to break up your transactions and use your $2 catalina to pay for each additional bottle.

No Cost Energy Efficience Services If You Qualify

SUMMER’S RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER – BE PREPARED!

It’s almost that time again…the time of year your air conditioner works overtime!  Don’t spend unnecessary money on high energy usage! 

ACT NOW AND TAKE ADVANTAGE of a great program your regulated electric utility company administers which may help lower your energy consumption.  Partners of Texas participates in this program and provides energy efficiency services at NO COST for homes that qualify!

Hard to believe?  It’s true!  As a result of the deregulation of the electric industry, the Public Utility Commission of Texas has developed programs to assist qualified electric customers in lowering their electric consumption by installing energy efficiency measures. 

Partners of Texas is an approved project sponsor that receives incentives from your regulated electric utility company to install these measures. Energy efficiency measures may include sealing air leaks in air conditioning ducts, registers, return closet, plenums, air handlers, and installing weather-stripping on doors and sealing plumbing penetrations.  

Time is limited!  This program is on a first come first served basis.  When the utility funds are gone…they’re gone!

 

  Call 713-569-0099 to see if you qualify for the no cost program. My house was not old enough, but they were able to do several of my friends houses.
