Trader Joes is the perfect ending to my mini-vacation!

Well, it's my final day babysitting the grand babies!  It has been a great 'mini' vacation-filled with many snuggles-a little shopping-and trying to get used to someone else doing the cooking!!!!  But..truth be told- I'm really excited to head home tomorrow!  With the temperatures outside hitting a whopping 35 degrees today- I've got a 'spring' in my step-and a whole lot of money saving ideas to bring back with me.

First on my list is making it a point to stop at Trader's Joe's at least once a month.  Now, I know that may not sound exciting for those of you who have this store close by-but, I don't.  The nearest one back home-is almost 100 miles away!!!!  So, I plan on stocking up on a few products I use on a daily basis!

Since Mel has this shampoo, conditioner and bath gel in her guest shower, I simply HAD to try these products!!!  They are not only organic (made with tea tree oil, peppermint, eucalyptus, etc)-they smell amazing, and are inexpensive at $3.99 each!! 


I am a true believer in coconut oil!!!  I use it for cooking-baking-body lotion-hair conditioner, and sometimes I put a scoop in my coffee-or one in Bentley's food to make his coat shiny!  But, I have found it's pretty costly if you want the good stuff!!! Not at Trader Joe's!!!  1 pint is less than $9.00!!!!

There are so many other 'inexpensive'-healthy products at Trader Joe's!  Plus!!!  The moment you step inside their doors-they have enormous bouquets of fresh SPRING flowers!!!  LOVE!!!!

My heart skipped a beat when I saw these.....




And then I turned the corner and saw this......

I'm not afraid to admit that I enjoy partaking in a glass of 'good' wine-now and again.  But, to get a 'good' bottle of wine-you have to pay some big $$-right?  Wrong!  Believe it or not-Trader Joes has good wine-AND it's inexpensive!!


I love Moscato- and this one is amazing!!! So it's only $6.99.  Who cares?  It's good-and only you will know how much it cost when you serve it!

I'm all stocked up-and ready for home!  Happy Wednesday folks!
