Deals I spotted at Walmart today!

I didn't really need anything today and usually won't shop at Walmart on a weekend but I waited until about 4:30 and it wasn't to busy. I knew if anything I was buying another mustard for $.25.  While there I thought I might check out why some people are looking for the Braun coupon for $15.00.  I know the deal I found may not be what other people used this coupon for but I think its a good deal.  This Braun shaver was reg price at Walmart for $139.97 mark down to $40.00 with the coupon $25.00.  London Drugs has a Braun Series 3 shaver marked at $139.99.  I think the deal I found is pretty good even better with the coupon. Then the Mr. Clean was on a shelf for $2.00 but was ringing in at $3.59 so after showing the teller where I found these and verifying the $2.00 find the 6 were rung in at $2.00 each and with the $4.00 off when you buy 3 I paid $4.00 for 6 not bad.  My total bill with tax came to $31.85.  Cal likes his new shaver.

My Epicure tatar sauce!

Ok this was diffently not a homemade meal tonight.  The only thing I made was my tartar sauce.  I will say the Highliner Signature fish (we had the Haddock fillets) was quite good. They are on sale Walmart $7.00 I had a coupon for $2.00 off so $5.00 not to bad.(8 pieces) Anyway I wanted to share the tartar sauce recipe. Its very versitile and can be adjusted to your liking. I used to following ingredients:

4 heaping Tablespoons mayo (light)
1 tablespoon green relish
a squirt of lemon juice
3/4 teaspoon Epicure lemon Dilly dip mix (not the same without it)
Refrigerate for a couple hours before serving
Store in fridge for up to 7 days.

Making foamy hand Soap!

So I have been wanting to try this for awhile but was waiting for the bottle to be empty.  I think it is really neat and will save money on hand soap. I rinsed out the empty foam hand soap container and filled the bottle about and inch and a quarter with dial hand soap and filled the rest of the bottle leaving a bit of room to replace dispenser without spilling.  Mixed by turning the closed bottle up and down.

Results are foamy hand soap.  Neat.  Im not sure if this will work with a cream hand soap and be sure to use a container with the foamer in the dispenser. I think I may have to invest in a couple more containers though.  I will be watching for a good sale .
