World of Goo Game Download Only $2.99!! (this game is $17.79 on Amazon!)

by Keri Lyn on February 16, 2011

in Family Fun, SUPER Hot Deals

…I have told you before about Big Fish Games online... and so many of you are telling me that you love these games, so I will keep sharing them as they tip me off to hot deals on games. If you aren’t aware of this site, it is a site that sells games that you can download onto your computer.

The reason that my ears perked up when I first spotted this offer is because someone compared it to the game Angry Birds (any other AB addicts out there?) My goodness that game has me sucked in … lol! My five year old and I love to play it together, and he is so much better at it than I am,  it’s a hoot!

The game that they are offering today is World of Goo and they are offering it for only $2.99! This game is rated E for everyone, and it sells on Amazon here for $17.79 (and gets great reviews!) Now through 2/18 you can download this game for ONLY $2.99…and it’s yours to keep forever (it stays right on your computer, in fact, you can even access it from other computers once you purchase it)

About World of Goo: Drag and drop living, squirming, talking globs of goo to build structures, bridges, cannonballs, zeppelins, and giant tongues! The millions of innocent goo balls that live in the beautiful World of Goo are curious to explore, but they don’t know that they are in a game, or that they are extremely delicious. This addicting and awe-inspiring Puzzle game will set you on an adventure that you’ll never forget!

… right now, you can grab a great deal right now by going to Big Fish Games and adding this game to your cart (it might auto add it for you, it did for me), and use coupon code wog299 at checkout … and the reg. price of $9.99 drops to only $2.99…. and it’s on your account forever. In fact… you can load it on to any of your computers, as long as you are using the same log in info!  Here’s another thing that I love .. it isn’t a “toy” … it’s an activity … one less thing cluttering up my house… and it is always fun to have entertaining things like this loaded on the computer! Last time we went to Grandma’s it was awesome because we were able to use her computer to access our Big Fish account so that the kids could play games there!

Just go here to check it all out! They don’t do this very often, and these codes expire in two days (2/18) so if you have been thinking about trying this out … this would be a great time! Thanks to these fun deals, we have built up a fun library of games that come in really handy when we travel…and I love that these are just goofy fun family friendly games!

Sunday Sweet Sunday Share: The Frugal Princess (Party)…

by Keri Lyn on July 18, 2010

in Family Fun, From My Kitchen, From My Oven, Sunday Sweet Sunday

…so, as I have mentioned recently… we just had a little princess turn 3. . . and as are all things with princesses…it had to be a royal affair. A royal affair, on a budget that is. I thought I would share with you just how we accomplished that. I LOVE to do hands-on parties for my kids, and I always hand make both the invitations and the cakes …but I have come to realize, that I can still take short cuts in making them… the most important thing…is that they are made with lots of love. Here’s how…

THE CAKE

So super easy.  I baked the cake in a round Pyrex bowl… turned it upside down and decorated it!  The total cost on the cake was $7.54… Here the breakdown on that:  97 cents Cake Mix + 97 cents Frosting + 3.99 pack of sparkly frosting paints (I splurged!) … and $1.57 for the Kelly doll that was on clearance at Target = total of $7.54

THE INVITATIONS

The invites were SO easy … and total cost on them was $3.98…thanks to Hobby Lobby (love that place!) I bought 2 packs of Princess Treasure Chest Invitations and one pack of 8 BIG diamond rings… plus used a 40% off one item coupon … for a total of $3.98. Then came home and make some cute invites on the computer, spritzed them with glitter spray…and rolled them up inside the diamond ring…(along with a note saying that attendees to the royal party would need to be wearing their ring for admission into the party, of course!) placed the  invites in the princess boxes …. and off we went to deliver …

THE PARTY

I scored some awesome party goods at the great sale from BuyCostumes that I told you about here. In fact… I got a whole lot of princess grab, gear and party favors for $23.50 shipped. I even scored a killer deal on wrapping paper from The Country Score deal that I posted about way back in February… these are huge, darling rolls and at 99cents a roll... that was a total score (plus I have enough for at least 5 more parties!) You can see this cute wrapping paper in the photo of the cake at the top of this post.

THE GIFTS

I was so proud of myself this year. Little sissy got some darling, quality items… and I got some great prices on them. She loved her Melissa & Doug Fold and Go Mini Dollhouse that I got on Amazon, and was able to pay for with Swagbucks…plus, I even had enough left over to almost pay for the Melissa and Doug Fold and Go Barn that I got to go with it ( these are STILL on sale, by the way … and they have free shipping…so I ended up having 16.18 out of pocket on these, and in case you were wondering … they are WONDERFUL… my kids have played with them for hours on end since she got them) … I also got her a darling rolling Pink Pony suitcase off of a daily sale at Zulily…$16.99. Love Zulily!!

THE PRINCESS

Well, the princess was priceless (of course!) … but her attire was an adorable princess dress that I scored from a Zulily sale…for $16.99!… and she looked so adorable in it! It even said PRINCESS across the front, in case there was any question as to who was the guest of honor.

Totals:

Cake: $7.54 + Invitations $3.98 + Party Supplies/Goodies $23.50 + Gifts $33.17 + Dress $16.99 = $85.18 … and most of that total includes toys that we will get use our of for years to come!

As you might know, it is really easy for birthday party expenses to get out of hand…especially if you are scrambling to put stuff together. If you can plan ahead a bit, I think that helps a lot. I also find that I spend less money when I focus more on the things that my daughter will love, like letting her help me make the cake, and focus less on the spendy little extras that really don’t mean much in the long run.

Happy Sunday, everyone!

  • HER STORY….

    So here is the deal….I am a quirky artist chic who loves to shop, save and share ideas. I am also the full time wife of a veterinarian, an overtime mommy, lots of the time artist (www.KeriLyn.com) and some of the time (ok…most of the time) obsessed saver of money, seeker of deals, and finder of freebies! I can hardly stand to pay full price for anything. I think that consumers should be informed and involved and that you have every right to get the best bang for your buck. I also believe in playing fair and playing by the rules…that is what makes life fun! I believe in recycling, using what you can, and donating what you can’t use to those in need. My mantras? (I collect them, by the way ... maybe even to the point of mantra hoarding. I also tend to mumble them in times of stress....) Life is short ... find blessings in the small things, love hard, forgive easily, and pray BOLDLY. Remain calm and embrace the Chaos... because we are all oh-so (more than we know!) blessed!!
