Twizzlers Deal

At Walmart they have their Twizzlers "sweet and sour" filled twists candy bars on sale for .50 cents.

Use the $1/3 coupon in SS-6/28 and it ends up making them .15 cents a piece! I bought 26 of them! They will make great treats for my Sunday School kids! The Twizzlers were located on an end cap with some clearance items in the food section at my Walmart.

Cornbelly's Corn Maze

Last night Emily and I went with our families to Cornbelly's Corn Maze, at Thanksgiving Point, and had so much fun! Our kids loved every minute and Emily and I had the camera out the entire night!

We played on the slides, ran through the corn maze, raced tractors, listened to ghost stories, ate yummy food, and raced rubber duckies!

Today there is a coupon courtesy of KBull radio station for entrance for $3.93. Click here to get your coupon! It was so worth it!
