Can you believe Father's Day is only ONE WEEK AWAY!!!???? I can't...It seems like it was just Mother's Day!

I have learned over the years that fathers (and men in general!) can be really hard to buy for...I struggle every year buying a gift for my husband and dad that won't sit on a shelf for years or go unused. So this year let me suggest a great gift for Dad this Father’s Day: Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit DVD or Blu-ray!

And the best part: you can find it easily at your local Walmart! They are offering an exclusive Blu-ray release of Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit on Tuesday, June 10 for only $12.96 and YOU get $15 off sports tickets at Ticketmaster (Offer Tuesday, 6/10 - Saturday, 6/14 ONLY).

#JackRyanBluRay #CollectiveBias

Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit is a guy's guy movie all the way through, which makes it a great gift idea and a great way to spend the day as well!

The movie is about Jack Ryan as a young covert CIA analyst who uncovers a Russian plot to crash the U.S. economy with a terrorist attack. It features great actors and actresses such Chris Pine, Kevin Costner, Keira Knightley and is directed by Kenneth Branagh!

PLUS, the Walmart Exclusive pack includes both Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit and The Italian Job. You don't get a much better gift than that: TWO great movies AND $15 off Sports Tickets, all for one very low price!

The dad in your life gets a great gift and you get a great deal! Don't stress about Father's Day this year anymore!

#GameTimeGoodies for the Big Football Game! #shop #cbias

When football season comes around, it is an exciting time in our house! WE LOVE football (even though we cheer for two different teams!). Now that the football season is winding down, the Big Games are happening and we LOVE to have friends over to watch and cheer on our favorite teams!

Most people would think that these football games are only enjoyed by guys....but let me tell you, I definitely LOVE watching these Big Games too and I don't like to have to slave away in the kitchen during the game but I really want to be a good hostess too. It is something I struggle with on football game days...until I was shopping at Walmart the day before our football party and saw that DiGiorno Rising Crust pizzas were on sale at my local Walmart for only $4.50!

I knew immediately these would be perfect for keeping our guests happy and full throughout the game so I picked up a couple of these tasty looking DiGiorno Rising Crust Pizzas for the Big Game Day party that we hosted this Sunday! It would make a great snack or even dinner for our guests and I don't have to slave away in the kitchen the entire game! 

And sure enough...my bright idea paid off! As soon as our guests heard we were having DiGiorno pizzas, they were already excited! I personally love the Rising Crust on these pizzas and how easy it was to unwrap from the plastic, stick on a pizza pan and stick in the oven! Twenty minutes later it was done to perfection and looked better than most pizzas I get from delivery pizza services! And best of all, I didn't miss a minute of the game because I could do all the little work it required during commercials!

I put the tasty pizza pieces out on our fun football plates and they were gobbled up in no time by our football party guests! They exclaimed how great the sauce tasted and how fluffy the Rising Crust was! I almost felt like I was from one of those DiGiorno commercials where all the guests think "it is delivery!". 

Overall, the football party was a great success! The team we were all cheering for won and the company was great! I felt like a great hostess because I could serve tasty, filling goodies during the game without having to sacrifice my time watching the game and being part of the party! You can bet we are hosting another football party next week and you can guess what I will be serving! Minimum work...great taste...filling...

How Can You Go Wrong???!!! :)

Celebrate Energizer Bunny’s 25th Birthday! #BunnyBirthdayWMT #shop #cbias

I am a member of the Collective Bias® Social Fabric® Community. This shop has been compensated as part of a social shopper insights study for Collective Bias and its client.

I don't know about you, but in our house we use batteries like we use toilet paper...A LOT!!!! :) It seems like every. single. children's. toy. requires batteries....lots and lots of batteries! And of course, for my son's birthday a couple weeks ago, we got him some new toys...and what do they require? Batteries!!!

So you can imagine how happy I was when I found out that it is also Energizer Bunny's 25th birthday and they are celebrating by offering a $10 Walmart gift card when you purchase 2 packs of specially marked Energizer Max batteries at Walmart! I get a gift card for buying something I need anyway - I love that!

In addition, there is a new coupon to make this an even better deal. One coupon is available in the inserts from the 10/27 newspapers. If you do not have that coupon, NO FEAR - there is a digital coupon on Walmart.com and coupons.com for $1.00 off MAX AA 8pack or larger. That is where I got mine! It was super easy to print and it saved me money! Love that!

So with my coupon in hand, I headed to my local Walmart in Apple Valley, MN and found the specially marked Energizer Max batteries in the Electronics section on a special display stand! They were really easy to spot and really easy to find! So thankful for that...especially when shopping with two toddlers! There they were...every size Energizer Max batteries with the special blue $10 Walmart gift card sticker on them!

Then came the hard part...deciding on which batteries we needed for all the toys that needed batteries, especially my son's newest birthday presents!

We decided on the C and D Energizer Max batteries because we never seem to have those around when we need them and my son's newest toys require them. My son (and daughter!) was very excited to finally be able to play with his new toys!

When we got home, I not only filled his toys with the new Energizer Max batteries, but I went online, entered my two codes, and got my Walmart Gift Card on its way! It literally took two minutes - it will take much more patience to receive the gift card! Meanwhile, I am dreaming of all the things I can buy with it: groceries, more toys, more batteries, clothes...the list goes on and on! :)

When I opened our battery drawer to put the extra batteries away, I noticed that Energizer is definitely the choice of battery in our house. Looking at our battery selection, all I see is the Energizer Bunny and the classic black and silver Energizer colors! They power all my children's toys, birthday after birthday and I am so happy to help them celebrate their 25th Birthday!!! Best of all, I get a $10 Walmart gift card to buy more batteries or new toys for my children for Christmas!!

So don't forget to head to your nearest Walmart, wish Energizer a Happy 25th Birthday by buying some of their Energizer Max batteries, and cash in on an easy to get $10 Walmart Gift Card while buying quality batteries for your children's toys, your husband's electronics, or your accessories! You know you ALWAYS need batteries, so why not get a $10 Walmart gift card while you are at it - it ends up paying for itself that way!

And don't forget to use the $1.00 off coupon for MAX AA 8-pack or larger to save even MORE, either from Walmart.com or from Coupon.com!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ENERGIZER BUNNY!

Eat and Snack Smarter with Del Monte Fruit Cups

Ok, tell me if you face the same situation in your house that I face in mine...

Making sure your children and/or husband are eating and snacking healthy foods while they are away from home. 

For dinners and on the weekend, I am in charge of meals for everyone so I can personally make sure everyone is eating healthy meals and snacks. But during the day when my husband is gone for breakfast, lunch and snacks, I don't know (or DON'T WANT TO KNOW!) what he is eating...out of the vending machines, fast food, candy bars, etc. I think if he had the choice (and no health risks!), he would eat out every meal and eat a candy bar, donut or sweet for every snack!

But as he has learned over the years from me and from experience, he needs to eat balanced, healthy meals throughout the day along with healthy snacks to keep up his energy levels, prevent weight gain, and prevent any health risk/diseases.

I always try to encourage him to take fruit and vegetables for snacks and for lunch but it can be hard to bring fresh fruit to work. So when I saw that Del Monte recently released new fruit cups that have only 60 calories per serving, are gluten free, and do not include high fructose corn syrup, we immediately headed to our local Walmart to pick some Del Monte Fruit Cups out. I really wanted to encourage him to try taking them to work and eating them for snack. You can see my entire shopping trip in my Google + Album.

There are four individual cups in each package and they are PERFECT for bringing to work as snacks throughout the day! My husband gets a serving of fruit in each cup and they don't have any of the icky high fructose corn syrup!

Plus, the new flavors, Diced Apples & Pears with Caramel Flavor and Diced Pears with Vanilla & Spice sound so delicious!

And they were!!!

My husband was a little hesitant at first to try them but I asked him to take them to work and give them a try! He came back home that evening and almost the first thing out of his mouth is how much he really liked the Del Monte fruit cups!! They make a perfect snack at work and can be eaten anywhere anytime with ease and that is really important to him!

His favorite flavor was Diced Apples & Pears with Caramel Flavor but he liked the Diced Pears with Vanilla & Spice too! (As you can tell from his "Mmmmm...this is good!" face below!)

If you want to try out the new Del Monte Fruit Cups as a healthy alternative to your normal snack or meals, then make sure to use this online coupon and save at the same time! These Del Monte fruit cups are not only really tasty, but they make an easy, healthy snack in the day that can easily replace other "easy" snacks that aren't as healthy!
