Things have been quiet around here because Super Coupon Girl is still in England! I’m very much looking forward to coupon clipping once again when I get back to the US. I did, however, find a creative way to save money on our grocery bill during my absence – Jai joined the Nutrisystem Blogging Challenge and received 10 days worth of free food in exchange for a review on Contest-Corner.com. The meals he received are pictured above, and include breakfast, lunch, dinner, and desserts. I’ve talked about using product reviews as a form of bartering before, and it works out well!
Winner #1 is comment number 13, Vera S, who said: “I love a good quick easy StirFry.”
Winner #2 is comment number 15, Ruth, who said: “Our favorite quick and simple food is actually a salmon chowder with a white sauce base, leeks, onions, clam stock.”
Winner #3 is comment number 37, DeeAnn S, who said: “A quick and easy meal for us is a swiss cheese, bacon and mushroom omelet along with a toasted bagel topped with cream cheese and pepper jelly. Thanks.”
This week, I was approached on behalf of Philadelphia Cooking Creme to run a fun giveaway for my readers.

I’ve been keeping my eyes peeled for coupons while I’m here in England, and today I got ahold of some. My dad got this flier in the mail with a free sample and two coupons for 50p off Nescafe instant coffee. I have no idea what this product normally retails for, but I’ll keep these in my wallet just in case I spot any deals!
I just wanted to extend my thanks to everyone for your kind condolences. My uncle’s funeral was on Thursday, so it’s been a very eventful week. I’m going to get some rest this weekend and get back into a more normal routine on Monday. Thanks for your understanding – have a good weekend, everyone.
On Tuesday evening, we got the news that my uncle Anthony had passed away suddenly. Anthony was my dad’s brother, and everyone on the paternal side of my family live here in England, so I’ll be spending the coming days with family and attending his service. I’ll be online as time allows, but I know you’ll all understand if it takes me longer than usual to blog and answer emails. I’m dedicating this with love to the memory of my “Uncle Tony”.
Coffee-Mate is giving away 100,000 free coupons at 9:00 AM PST today, February 4th. You can sign up via their website or Facebook page. I’m sure this will be a popular offer, so the coupons will probably disappear quickly!
