I Need a Button - Can Anyone Help Me?

Being a rather frugal gal, I've done all the blog design here at Frugal Indy myself - with the information that I found on the Internet. So far, for the most part, it's come out okay.

But there is one task where I just seem to hit a wall every time I try to tackle it! And that is a blog button. I have tried in my Paint program to design a reasonably nice button. Honestly, all the ones I've made really look bad. No make that REALLY BAD!

So, I've decided to ask you for help. Is there a fellow blogger or a faithful reader out there who knows anything about blog buttons? I'd love to have some cute little button for the blog - but alas I just have no talent whatsoever for blog button making. I wish it were as easy as making some cookies - or snagging a good CVS deal!

If you don't know what a blog button is here are a few examples:






























If anyone can help me out - or recommend a good button maker leave a comment of email me at Frugalindy@gmail.com

Kmart Super Double Coupon Sale - Trip #1 $ 4.62



















I made a quick trip to Kmart today for my 10 coupons worth. In some ways it is easier since they made the 10 coupon rule - I pull my coupons ahead of time, along with a few back-ups and can run in and out in a few minutes. It also means multiple trips, but since I live only about 5 minutes away from the Super Kmart, that is not too bad!

Here is what I got today for $4.62 - I saved over $29.00!

I had coupons for everything except the wipes - which were $1.00. I thought I'd try them to see if they were okay for the diaper bag.

Money Saving Mom has a good list of freebies and links here. I used printable coupons for many of the items and you can find the link there.

Up to $100 in Kmart Gift Cards - with transferred RX's

























On the back of this week's grocery circular from Kmart there is a coupon for up to $100 in Kmart Gift Cards $25 for each transferred RX. There are some qualifications with this such as the reimbursed insurance value of the RX must be more than the gift certificate amount. I would expect that the Pharmacist can check on this before you fill the RX.

This could be a really big money saver if you have monthly prescriptions!
