Have you noticed that a lot of the Mega Event and Register Reward items each week are also Box Tops for Education items? If you're not familiar with Box Tops, they are found on many products and are worth money to your local schools. You just have to clip them off the package and turn them into your favorite school. Easy, peasy, lemon squeezy. I think each Box Top is usually worth ten-cents. I have a cup on top of the fridge where I deposit them for safe keeping. If you don't have kids in your household, you could clip these for family or friends, or you could just drop them off the next time you drive by your neighborhood school! Just don't throw those things in the trash! They can't help anyone if you toss them out with the garbage! You can learn more about it on their website: http://www.boxtops4education.com/.

Free App for Kentucky Utilities or LG&E Customers
Did you know Kentucky Utilities has an App? Search for "LG&E KU Outage Maps" in the App Store. It's free and gives you a listing of outages and estimated restoration times. Wouldn't that have been handy during the ice store? I read about it on the back of my electric bill envelope and thought I'd check it out. Plus, you can follow them on Twittter: @lgeku. Who knew?
Next Week at Staples
If you've signed up to receive the Staples ad, you should have the 8/7 sales ad waiting in your inbox this morning. There always seems to be some fine print for these really good, cheap deals, so I prefer to have the paper in my hands. But, here are some things to keep an eye out for next week!
iSurf: Culinary Crafts: Keepin' the Faith
Ever wonder how mustard got it's name? Do you know when National Mustard Day (what?) is? Read all about it in this week's Culinary Crafts: Keepin' the Faith by Leigh Douglas. Who knew mustard had so many uses and such a rich history? I just may have to pay more attention to that little yellow bottle the next time it's on sale! I guess it's worth hoarding, after all (kidding)! Thanks Leigh, for a wonderfully interesting article!
