Love to Garden? Join the Fun at Calloway’s FREE Perennial Plant Swap This Saturday, April 3.

Posted on April 1, 2010 | Leave a comment

                                       

Want to add some new plants to your garden for almost FREE?
This Saturday, April 3, Calloway’s Nursery is hosting a perennial plant swap in Fort Worth and Plano.  This is a great way to expand your garden with shared plants, seedlings, and bulbs, as well as trade tips with other local gardeners. I love sharing my survivors plants with others and am really looking forward to this event!  

The spring Perennial Swap is the third event of this typed hosted by Calloway’s locations and is free to the public. Additionally, there will be free bottled water and hourly drawings between 9 a.m. and 11 a.m. for garden gift cards. A Master Gardener or plant expert will be on site at each location to answer gardening questions and offer gardening advice, too! 

Calloway’s directions for how the swap works: 

Step 1: Post what you have and what you want at the links below.  If you have extra bulbs, roots or divided perennials list them to share. If you’re looking for something specific, post it at these links: 

     ::  Click here to chat with Fort Worth Perennial Swap Participants
     ::  Click here to chat with Plano Perennial Swap Participants 

Step 2: Browse the Perennial Swap blog and create your shopping list.  If you don’t find what you’re looking for, post a note to inquire if someone has what you want. Invite your friends, neighbors and family members to join in the fun. The more gardeners who come the more plants to trade! 

Step 3: Come to the Perennial Swap and meet up to exchange and trade.  Agree to meet at the swap and exchange plants. Arrive at the swap, get a free bottle of water and start shopping.  Visit and trade plants. 

Step 4: Take your new plants home, plant them up, enjoy them and SAVE money!

Posted on February 25, 2010 | 1 comment

     

For a limited time, Amazon.com is offering a really great bundle
special for Toy Story and Toy Story 2 on Blu-Ray.     

You’ll get 2 FREE movie tickets to see Toy Story 3 (or any other

  2. You will see a section titled “Best Value” with the following
    details: Buy Toy Story (Two-Disc Special Edition Blu-ray/DVD Combo
    w/Blu-ray Packaging) and get Toy Story 2 (Two-Disc Special Edition
    Blu-ray/DVD Combo w/ Blu-ray Packaging) at an extra $10.00 off
    Amazon.com’s already discounted price . 
  3. Use the “Add both to Cart” button to select both movies. You
    will pay $39.98 total (a savings of  $40 = $30 off the list price +
    $10 Off Amazon’s Pre-order special price). 
  4. Select “FREE Super Saver Shipping” as your shipping speed at
    checkout to get free shipping.
  5. Each Blu-Ray movie comes with a voucher for a FREE Movie
    Ticket.     This voucher can be redeemed for a movie ticket to see Toy
    Story 3 (or any other movie you would like) from March 26 to June 30,

    movie theaters including Cinemark, Rave, and Regal Entertainment.

to drop between now and 3/23, you will receive a refund for the difference!     

 Enjoy! :)

Cheddar or the Grilled Deli Trio.

FREEBIE ALERT: Receive a FREE “No Strings Attached” Pretzel from Auntie Anne’s ~ Saturday, February 20th!

Posted on February 17, 2010 | Leave a comment

      

Try a Fresh Pretzel at Auntie Anne’s for FREE!
Have you ever been taunted by the aroma of baked cinnamon goods while
walking through the mall? Chances are, you might have been smelling the
wonderful, fresh-baked pretzels from Auntie Anne’s (IMHO, the best pretzels
on Earth!).  Good news, Auntie Anne’s wants everyone to try a pretzel for
FREE this Saturday!      

Details, Details
What:  Receive a FREE Original or Cinnamon Sugar Pretzel.  One Per Person.
Sign up for an email reminder or learn more details here.
When:  Saturday, February 20 ~ 10am-3pm
Where:  All Auntie Anne’s locations.  Click here to find a store near you.     

On a personal side note…
I had an opportunity to hear Anne Beiler (founder of Auntie Anne’s Pretzels)
speak a couple of years ago.  She has an amazing life story of tragedy and
triumph that reaches far beyond how she started her pretzel business
with the recipe that was passed down from Amish Christian home.       

If you want to learn more about Anne Beiler, read her autobiography,
Twist of Faith: The Story of Anne Beiler, published by Thomas Nelson. 
You can likely find the book at most Christian bookstores, or click here
to find it on sale at Amazon.com.     

Enjoy! :)
