Frugal Spring Cleaning

It's never too early to think spring. Of course, along with spring comes the frugal spring cleaning. After all, you want your home to feel as crisp and fresh as the weather. With this in mind, here are some tips to help you with your frugal spring cleaning this year. 

Frugal Spring Cleaning Tip #1: Use Generic Products 

The first frugal spring cleaning tip can also be used for food: Don't pay for the top brands when generic cleaning products are just as good but will save you at least 50%. Take a moment to compare the labels and you'll see they are quite similar. 

Frugal Spring Cleaning Tip #2: Shop At The Dollar Store 

Adding on to the first frugal spring cleaning tip, you should know that generic products are even cheaper at the dollar store. Take a moment to have a close look at the products before leaving the store to make sure you'll be happy with them when you get home. 

Frugal Spring Cleaning Tip #3: Stock Up At Sales 

April is a great time to buy your cleaning products. With that being said, here's a little known frugal spring cleaning tip: Organic products of all types are on sale at this time because of Earth Day. So, stock up and don't forget to use your coupons to help you do so. 

Frugal Spring Cleaning Tip #4: Use Your Coupons  

Here is another frugal spring cleaning that you're probably already using: Be on the lookout for coupons. While the Sunday newspaper and your favorite magazines are great sources, don't overlook tear pads and displays in the store. You'll also find coupons in machines and on products themselves. The Internet also offers great printable coupons. 

Sometimes when you like a brand's page on Facebook or join a company's email list, you'll get coupons. Don't forget to check out the other part of my blog where I list deals, coupons, and sweepstakes daily that you can use for your frugal spring cleaning. 
  
Frugal Spring Cleaning Tip #5: Make Your Own Cleaners 

When you're online also look for DIY cleaner recipes that use your pantry supplies (e.g. vinegar, baking soda, cornstarch, lemon juice), and you can use for your frugal spring cleaning. A great benefit here is that you have complete control over it. 

Frugal Spring Cleaning Tip #6: Reuse and Repurpose 

Instead of using cleaning supplies that you'll need to throw away, consider using those that you can reuse. For instance, instead of paper towels, use cotton cloths (from old washcloths T-shirts and towels) instead. At the same time, you should also try repurposing those household items that you already use. As an example, take old dryer sheets and shine the stainless steel and toothbrushes you're no longer using for scrubbing grout.   

An important, helpful change for my Christian brothers/sisters

As a writer, I've been told many times that I should find my "niche." This is something that I've struggled with for quite a while, (many years, in fact). A wise friend also told me at one time that we go through seasons of our lives. 

Why am I telling you all of this? Well, it's because I think I've finally found that niche. I'm very excited to share it with you as it's going to have an impact on all of my blogs, which is why I've chosen to cross post this on them. 

So, then, what is my niche? It's frugal living. Something that I've been doing in secret for a while because I don't want to be known as "the crazy coupon lady." However, it's really been a good thing for my daughter and I because it's saving us a lot of money. I've even been able to get full-size products, not samples, for free. 

  

I feel this is something that can greatly benefit you as my reader. Here's how: 

• If you're a WAHM, you know that we're not rich by any means so we need to find ways to save money while enjoying our WAHM lifestyle. You can find out more about this at My WAHM Life.
• For those who have chosen to homeschool, you know how expensive it can be. However, it really doesn't have to be that way. I haven't spent any money on textbooks this year, and my daughter is getting a great education. Want to know how? Take a look at Learning At Home.
• All of us want to be healthy, and to keep our pets that way too, but supplements, and the like can be quite expensive. What if I told you that we can get a lot of these things for really cheap or even free? I'll teach you how at Live Love Laugh.
• Those of us who are Christians know the Bible teaches us to be good stewards of the things God has given us. Money is one of those things so being frugal only makes sense. Start listening and learning how to be obedient at Christian Spirituality.

What this means is that you'll not only start seeing more posts where I show you how to save money, but I'll also be creating very inexpensive yet very valuable items for you, including eBooks and organizational items too. I hope this is good news for you, and that you'll benefit as much as I have from this lifestyle. Please remember to keep an eye on my blog, Keep Calm and Coupon, too because I list freebies and sweepstakes there daily. Enjoy!   

Signs of A Christian Spiritual Awakening

Today, there are a lot of people going through a Christian spiritual awakening. There are some signs that you'll notice when a Christian spiritual awakening happens to someone, including they:

1. Are quite sensitive to negativity and crowds. They can no longer be in certain social situations or be around some people now that they've undergone a Christian spiritual awakening.
2. Will have a feeling as though something has changed within them.
3. Are very sensitive to technology and lighting.
4. Will zone out for a long time or need to rest or sleep for longer periods of time. (Sometimes just the opposite will happen in that normally sound sleepers now suffer from insomnia.)
5. Will wake up at the same time in the middle of each night but not feel tired the next day.
6. Have physical symptoms such as exhaustion, excessive thirst, stomach problems (e.g. cramps), headaches or migraines and pain in the neck or shoulder, as well as the muscles.
7. Will be dizzy, have balance problems and feel spaced out.
8. Have either a greatly increased or greatly decreased appetite. Nevertheless, they'll crave foods that they haven't wanted for years.
9. Will feel a stronger connection to nature.
10. Will witness quicker manifestations.
11. Will change what they read, watch on TV and do with their free time.

These are the signs you should watch for when there's been a Christian spiritual awakening.

The Definition of Christian Grace

One of the hottest topics in Christian churches today has to do with Christian grace. Unfortunately, a lot of ministers don't do a very good job of defining what Christian grace is, let alone explaining what it's all about. This is a shame because this is one of God's greatest gifts to us... One that will truly impact and change our lives if we only understand it enough to allow it to work through us. With this in mind, here's how we define Christian grace...
