Spring Project: Completing a DIY First Aid Kit

This spring, my goal is to have a complete, stocked first aid kit. I normally have one on hand, and extra supplies in back stock, but I've been relying on those bandages and triple antibiotic supplies. Now they've dwindled.

So, join me as I try to identify sales and use coupons to have a completely stocked first aid kit, without cheating and buying a pre-filled kit!

Lets start with a good list of what to include. Here's a nice printable version from Organized Home. I personally like this one better than the one from the American Red Cross, so it is what I'll be working from, but since it doesn't include information on quantity, I'll refer to this one from the Red Cross to make sure I have enough of everything.

Catalina Alert - Ore-Ida Potatoes (Kroger) Through April 15


Now through April 15, Earn up to a $3.00 catalina when you purchase Ore-Ida Frozen Potato Products (you know... fries, tater tots, hash browns, etc).

Here's the breakdown:
Buy 2 = $1.00 catalina
Buy 3 = $2.00 catalina
Buy 4 or more = $3.00 catalina

Currently there are no coupons for Ore-Ida and they are NOT part of the $5 off when you buy 10 promotion. However, they are frequently included in Kroger promotions, so keep your eyes peeled (hee hee, bad pun intended).

Remember, when buying items that will produce a catalina coupon, do separate transactions and ring them up in your first transaction. Then use the catalina to bring down the total on your second transaction. Plus, you won't have to worry about forgetting to use it before it expires.

Not familiar with catalinas?
Think of a catalina as "Store Credit." It's only good at the store where you received it, BUT it can be used on ANY purchase (with a few exceptions, usually for things like beer or cigarettes). And your purchase must be for at least the amount of the catalina.

Kitchen Hack - Keep Manicotti Shells from Breaking In Storage

Used 1/2 your manicotti shells?

Keep the empty plastic tray and turn it upside down. Put it underneath the tray that has the 1/2 of your manicotti shells to go back to the pantry. Close the box and store!

Remember to turn the tray upside down. If not, it will "nest" with the top tray and your manicotti will get tossed around inside the box.
