Sears Coupons For Year-Long Savings

The colder winter months have a way of trapping you in the house and forcing you to notice all the little home projects that have been stacking up through the year.  There’s no time like the present to get the house in order, and save money in the process!

Fred and Ethan at “One Project Closer” are constantly updating an extensive list of coupons from Sears, and will have coupons for hearth and home available and current year-round!

There’s nothing greener than fixing what you’ve got, and saving a few colorful benjamins in the process!  Follow this link for an up-to-date list of  Sears coupons!

Green Giveaway: “GreenStakes,” The 100% Biodegradable Lawn and Garden Tool

Welcome to the Green Gardenista’s first Green Giveaway! I want to do my part to spread the joy of “going green” around, by giving you a great tool to do just that in your own yard!

Green Stakes are a 100% biodegradable alternative to metal sod staples and anchors, that solve all of our rusty “how do I recycle these” problems. This green innovation dissolves safely into the soil 8-24 months after installation, and can be used for a wide variety of garden tasks! I have used Green Stakes to anchor sod, mulch mats, and wildflower mats, but they have almost unlimited uses around the yard, and can be used with landscape fabric and even bird netting!

I will be giving away a box of 500 four inch Green Stakes next Thursday, October 23rd, to the winning name I pull at random from a hat. 

How To Win It Big: Enter your name, and what you want to use Green Stakes for in the comment section below, and stay tuned for the winning announcement to be made next Thursday! This particular contest is open to continental US residents only, due to overseas shipping costs. The stakes come in a box about the size of a standard shoe box..

Good Luck! 

My Giveaway Guestimation For “Life On The Balcony’s” Book Contest

As I mentioned In a previous post, Fern at “Life on the Balcony” is holding a seed counting contest for a free book, and gift certificate! Part of the giveaway rules state that all guesses should be posted on an individual’s website if they have one.  So Fern, my best guess for the number of herb seeds in the photographed pile you showed on your site is 79 seeds.  

Thanks for the opportunity to win a great fall read, and the gift certificate! Best of luck to my competition!
