Del Monte Fresh is doing quite a fun giveaway over on their Facebook page just for helping them name their monkey!
:-) Check out the details below and then head over and give it a shot!
Help Del Monte Fresh Produce Name Their Monkey For A Chance to Win A Year Supply of Bananas
Del Monte Fresh Produce is introducing a new adorable monkey, which you will see on the Del Monte Fresh Produce website, Facebook page, and in banana packaging. He will give banana lovers tasty banana recipes, tips for staying healthy, and much more. He’s cute, furry, fun and a tad mischievous. His favorite food is bananas. He’s constantly jumping, swinging and running around to stay in tip top shape.
There’s just one problem – this monkey needs a name.
Help Del Monte Fresh Produce name him for a chance to win an entire year supply of Del Monte Fresh Produce bananas (the Grand Prize*) or one of 100 stuffed monkeys that will be given away randomly to Del Monte Fresh Produce Facebook fans.

The Grand Prize of a year supply of bananas will consist of 52 coupons for $2.00 each (equivalent to one bunch of bananas). That’s one bunch of bananas per week for an entire year. Coupons cannot be redeemed for cash.
Here is a fantastic deal if you can make a Sunshine trip today.
Post cereal (the kiddie cereal like Fruity Pebbles, Alpha Bits, etc) are on sale at Sunshine through today 3/$5.
There is a new $.50/1 Post Cereal coupon over here. (This is the Target computer page and the post cereal coupon is a manufacturer coupon.)
AND there is a catalina deal, where you purchase 4 post cereals you will receive a $3 coupon printed at the register, good on your next Sunshine trip.
Combine all 3 and you have a deal that looks like this:
Purchase 4 Post Cereals on sale 3/$5
= $6.67
Use 4 $.50/1 cpns (will need 2 computers to print) (all will double to $1)
= $2.67
Receive $3 catalina coupon at checkout
= Free!
*If you only have access to 1 computer, just buy 2 cereals and you will receive a $1 catalina coupon, which is like paying $.34 for 2 boxes of cereal!
Important Note: It states in the Sunshine ad that they will not double coupons on sale items, however the Sioux Falls location does allow it, under their discretion.
Burger King is offering up a great offer this Labor Day weekend. Grab a 12 oz smoothie for just $1. And did you know that they have added Raspberry to their flavors? It was pretty tastey!
Keep in mind that not all locations may be participating, so be sure to ask before you order!
There are a lot of new coupons over here and here and here today (new month)! These coupons include some great new General Mills cereal coupons that can be combined with the *hot* cereal deal at HyVee.
What a fabulous week to be shopping HyVee! Below are my top picks for the week along with some price decline deals. For a full ad matchup, you can head over here.
One of the top deals this week is the $10 off 10 Kraft brand products deal I highlighted here.
I hope you grabbed the Kraft brand coupons from coupons.com. Be sure to also head over to couponnetwork to grab $1/1 Oscar Mayer Deli Cuts and $1/2 Kraft dressing coupons to get some great deals with the $10/10 catalina deal!
There really is no bad scenario with this deal! And keep in mind if you don't need 10 items, grab some bologna to fulfill your 10 (because it is free after catalina) and then donate it or give it to a college student! :-)

Sunshine will be offering a Triple Coupon Event
this Monday, 9/3. They will triple a total of 10 coupons with a face value
up to $.50 (so triple to $1.50).
Many Sunshine locations will not allow triple (or
double) coupons on sale items. Please keep this in mind when
shopping.
Feel free to list your
triple (and double) coupon deals in the comments below.
If I get a chance to check it out, I will update this
post.
Just wanted to let you know, as I mentioned in an earlier post about the Kraft coupon there would be noteworthy deals on the horizon to pair them with. HyVee will be having this fantastic catalina deal starting tomorrow. It will mean some very cheap items and free items with coupons and catalina!
I will put together some scenarios later, but wanted to get this up now so that if you haven't printed your Kraft coupons here, do so now before they are gone!!
Since we purchased a lug of peaches this year, I have been trying new recipes and putting our peaches to good use. Did you snag a lug at Hy-Vee this week for $15? I would love to hear your favorite peach recipes!
I was searching for a grilled peach recipe and didn't find one that I really wanted to try, although I did find one that used cream cheese with it (mmm...cream cheese), but I really wanted to try and stay on the somewhat healthy side.
:-) Yes, a somewhat healthy dessert recipe, how can that be any good? The peach is healthy, it should cancel out any of the calories you add to it, right?! :-)
A little disappointed in not finding a recipe that was screaming my name, I decided to just throw some peaches on the grill and give it a little spice and a little sweet and see what happens. And let me tell you, something great happened. All of us (including the picky 3 year old, our the-sweeter-it-is-the-better-it-is 6 year old and my hubby who really doesn't eat desserts often) really liked it! Score one for Mom!
Here's what I came up with....
What you need:
Peach halves
5-6 Mini marshmallows per peach half
Cinnamon (optional)
What to do:
Wash peaches, half peach and remove pit.
Place pitted side of peach down on top rack of hot grill (My grill was about 350 degrees). Close the lid and let grill for about 6 minutes.
Peach will have nice grill marks and will be starting to soften.
Flip peach over to rounded side and place onto plate. Sprinkle with cinnamon and top with mini marshmallows. Place back on grill on top rack. Close the lid of grill and let cook for approximately 6-8 minutes, until marshmallows are slightly toasted on top and rounded side of peach half has softened a bit.
Serve and enjoy! (Note: will be very hot, so enjoy with caution. Or do as my children did and go play outside for a half hour and come back to devour!)
The peach was just soft enough to keep it's form, yet remind you of a peach crisp/cobbler with all it's yummy juices flowing! And let me tell you, the toasted marshmallows on top were delish! Just enough sweetness to indulge a bit and remind you of a tastey summer treat!
If your child doesn't like the skin of the peach, it can easily be removed once it has been grilled.
Just a short time ago, I looked into purchasing cases for the kids' Kindle Fire. I could not believe how expensive these were in the stores around here. I found them ranging from $30-$40 plus. And to top it off, they didn't have any fun (kid-friendly) colors or patterns.
Finally I decided to go searching online and I found an amazing deal on Amazon! The reviews were favorable on the products as well, so it gave me the confidence to purchase them and I am glad I did!
I found the Acase(TM) Kindle Fire Premium Micro Fiber Leather Case with built-in Stand for Kindle Fire Full Color 7" Multi-touch Display, Wifi (Pink)
and it is currently just $8.49! (I paid $12 for it and thought that was a great deal!)
We also purchased the Acase(TM) Kindle Fire Premium Micro Fiber Leather Case with built-in Stand for Kindle Fire Full Color 7.5" Multi-touch Display, Wifi (Purple)
and it is also currently just $8.49.
They have several colors to choose from and many qualify for Free Super Saver Shipping with a purchase of $25 on Amazon!
We are completely satisfied with these cases! The Kindle Fire fits nice and snug in the pocket, I feel confident it won't fall out. There is an 'easel' type stand to it as well so that the Kindle Fire can be set at different angles for viewing convenience. And one thing I LOVED about this one is that it has a band on it that can be moved for closure to ensure that the case will stay closed as it is moved around. And to top it off, the fun colors are exciting for the kids.
Head on over to Amazon and check it out!
