"Love Potion"

Today while browsing through my email I came across an email with a promotional deal for 99 prints for 99 cents (from Snapfish) plus shipping....but it still comes to around 6 cents a print! That is an amazing deal! I am a photograph-aholic. I love putting them in scrapbooks, photo books, picture frames, and giving them to family and friends as gifts!

The 99 cent prints promotion is one of my favorite promotions (other than the ones for 25 free prints which I occasionally find). After putting my son in his crib for his nap and setting my daughter up with a craft project I got work on downloading all the pictures off of my phone and came across these pictures from Valentine's Day!

 We made some delicious "Love Potion" as a yummy treat on Valentine's Day. Here are the ingredients:

Love Potion Ingredients:
  * Canada Dry Cranberry Ginger Ale
  * Kemp's Raspberry Sherbet

It is as easy as that!

This is a real treat for my daughter as we give her very little soda and only for special occasions. We had so much fun making and tasting this delicious treat for Valentine's Day I thought it was worth sharing!

Tip: I am always watching the sales and ads for months prior to a holiday or event (such as a birthday). I found the 2-liter bottles of Cranberry Ginger Ale on sale for about $0.60/each at Hy-Vee following Christmas (in early January) as it is a seasonal item. We like it so much that I'm always waiting for this deal to come around and then stock up on it when it does go on sale.

Tip: I subscribe to several websites email lists which do monthly promotional deals for cheap pictures... here are my top favorites Snapfish, Walgreen's Photo, and Shutterfly. I have a folder on my computer which I place photos into each time I download them from my phone or camera titled "To Print" so it is ready to go when these deals become available. All I have to do after learning of the details is upload them to their site and order the prints. It takes less than 20 minutes and my pictures usually arrive within in 1-2 weeks. It's simple and easy once you get it set up!
