Frugal Summer Fun:  Visit Your Local  Metro Parks

Since our family is all about frugal fun we regularly visit different Lorain County Metro Parks for FREE activities. Recently our family visited the Miller Nature Preserve in Avon, Ohio.  If you haven’t visited here yet, you’ll definitely want to put it on your to-do list!  Keep in mind that even if you aren’t local there are many parks to check out in your own area.  Look below for some links to area park systems.

Miller Nature Preserve is located on Route 83 in Avon,  Ohio.  This beautiful Metro Park is nestled on 78 acres of wooded land and includes a visitor center with a café, a gift shop and a demonstration kitchen for cooking classes and a 5,000 square foot conservatory (the first in Lorain County).  There is also a seasonal FREE Butterfly House that is open through Labor Day, 10 am – 5:30 pm daily.

My friend and I took our kiddos last week and they loved finding all the beautiful butterflies inside.  While the house is small, the kids spent about 20 minutes searching for the butterflies that were pictured on the handy chart that is located at the entrance.  We even spotted a cocoon.

At the Miller Nature Preserve you may also want to check out the Conservatory.  This area is much larger than the butterfly house and displays various plant specimens from all over the world.  Within this exhibit you’ll find orchids, bromeliads, ferns, bonsai, desert plants, palms and cycads, and other tropical plants. This area is open 10am – 6pm daily.  While there is a small cost of have a small cost of $2 per person, children under a certain height are FREE!

While at the any Metro Parks be sure to bring along a lunch or snack and have a picnic!  All Metro Parks offer picnic tables or eating areas where eating lunch will top off your perfect afternoon.  If you’re game, you also may want to try one of the many hiking trails offered where you and your family can explore.  Make a game of it and try to spot different leaves, birds or flowers along the way.  Not only is it great exercise but it also can be a learning experience…shhh don’t tell them.

Our Fun and FRUGAL Shopping Trip to Five Below!

November 2, 2015 by racheljk Leave a Comment

five below shopping trip
This is a sponsored post for SheSpeaks/Five Below

I don’t have little girls in my house but my three boys are like me; they love to shop!  Thankfully for my wallet, we have a store nearby called Five Below.

Five Below is a gem of a store that offers toys, accessories, party supplies and so much more all for $5 or less. Yep, everything, everyday, is just $5 and below! Got to love the catchy name! When my boys have birthday money to spend or a little extra pocket money, they always ask to go to Five Below.

Five Below is a great place for preteens and teens who like to shop for the latest cool stuff that kids really want. They have clothes, items to decorate their room, sporting gear, arts and crafts party supplies, candy and toys. It’s a treasure trove just waiting to be explored. Five Below is definitely my “yes” store because while the prices are low the quality is high.

five below shopping trip

A couple of weeks ago my two oldest boys and I went on a little shopping trip to Five Below. They were super excited when we hopped into the car and I told them where we were going. As soon as we walked into the store they ran right to the Beanie Boos. My boys don’t agree on much but their love of Beanie Boos. They couldn’t decide which ones to get so they both bought two. How can you say no for only $5 each? Deal!

five below shopping

From here they split up. My middle son, Mason had a ball looking in the large Star Wars section which was filled with everything from bags and puzzles to characters and school supplies. I was jotting down notes so I could come back and pick things up for stocking stuffers. Before he left this area he picked up a Angry Birds Star Wars game and a few other fun treasures.

My oldest Noah, was elated to find the Skylanders section at Five Below. Even though we’ve been collecting these figurines for only 4 years he still managed to find quite a few that he didn’t have yet. In this section they also have Leap Frog Explorer cartridges, earphones, phone case, ear buds and much more which is perfect for that pre-teen, teen crowd.

five below pre-teen shoppers
The arts and craft section at Five Below is great for my little Mason. He’s the crafty one in our family and is always looking for new supplies for his newest creation. From paints to crayons, clay and markers, Five Below has you covered.

Another area we spent quite awhile in was the game area. As a family we try to shut off the electronics and do family game night from time to time. We spotted a whole back wall of games at our Five Below store. I’m definitely going to go back to pick up a few for Christmas gifts.

five below shopping with boys
While my youngest wasn’t with us, we certainly didn’t forget about him. We picked up a few goodies for him too including a Beanie Boo (of course) and some Hex Bugs. These little “critters” are one of his favorite toys.

With the holidays approaching, make sure to visit Five Below in your area. From stocking stuffers to full out presents, Five Below will keep you shopping without our busting your budget. Keep in mind also that Five Below has great items for those adults on your list too!

Declutter Your Home With Savers Donation Drop Spots

October 24, 2015 by racheljk Leave a Comment

This is a sponsored post in partnership with Savers. All thoughts and ideas remain my own.

decluttering for fall

This past week I finally started a mom’s most dreaded chore… the switching of the seasonal clothes. Since it’s almost November, I should have done this weeks ago but every season I put this task off as long as I possibly can.
While going through drawer after drawer, digging through closets and tearing up my attic, I found more and more in my home to organize. Over the summer months I had gotten lax. Items were out of place, our toy bins had grown and we were swimming in clothes.

Now that fall is here, I knew it was the perfect opportunity to declutter and make room for new things that will be coming in from two upcoming birthdays and Christmas. After about an hour and a half I had wound up with a large pile of clothes, housewares and toys. After cleaning, I just wanted it out. No selling, no waiting for garage sale, just out. Now that I have a Savers donation drop spot in my area, I knew exactly where it was all going.

savers donation drop spot cleveland
Savers Donation Drop Spots have partnered with Savers Donation Drop Spots and have recently opened 11 new donation drop spots in the greater Cleveland area. In fact there is one within a mile from my house.  What’s awesome is that Savers pays Easter Seals Northern Ohio when people donate their goods at these Savers donation drop spots; even if the items don’t make it to the sales floor.

These Savers Donation Drop Spots allow you to drive up and drop off your clothing and housewares. It’s so convenient that they accept more than just clothes at these locations which means less driving around for me.

Cleveland Area Savers Donation Drop Spots:

  • 1180  West River Road, Elyria, OH 44035
  • 33799 Center Ridge Road, North Ridgeville, OH 44039
  • 8515 Day Drive, Parma, OH 44129
  • 4332 Kent Road, Stow, OH 44224
  • 30100 Detroit Road, Westlake, OH 44145
  • 5496 Dressler Road, North Canton, OH 44720
  • 3014 Cromer Avenue, Canton, OH 44709
  • 6944 West 130th Street, Middleburg Heights, OH 44130
  • 1280 State Route 303, Streetsboro, OH 44240
  • 34400 Vine Street, Eastlake, OH 44095
  • 1183 Williams Reserve Blvd, Wadsworth, OH 44281

savers donation drop spot
While there are many things that I love about the Savers Donation Drop Spot my favorite it that there is someone at each location spot to greet and help you (during specific hours). In fact the nice gentleman at mine came right to my car as I was pulling up and asked if he could help me unload! As a busy mom of three, that was definitely helpful.

While dropping items off I was asked if I wanted a receipt for tax purposes. I’m so glad he asked as I had completely forgotten. It’s certainly a great perk to this donation drop spot.

The new Donation Drop Spots are open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. The time switches to 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. starting the first week of November and lasting through the winter months. If you wind up stopping by without anyone there Savers Donation Drop Spots offers self serve boxes to put your things inside.

I love that Savers is inspiring local communities to donate reusable items to local nonprofits instead of throwing them in the trash. In fact, Savers has become one of the largest recyclers of used goods in the world, keeping more than 650 million pounds of reusable items from landfills each year.

In addition to the good deeds and eco-convenience Savers offers, the stores also boasts awesome deals! Savers has pioneered a thrift store experience that has defied typical expectations for secondhand shopping. You won’t find cluttered piles and broken equipment on the shelves at Savers. Instead, the stores are spacious, well-lit and easy to navigate.

If you also have a pile of items to donate I’d happily suggest finding a Savers donation drop spot near you. Not only will you have a CLEAN house but you’ll be helping your local community too!

Champagne dreams, flapper dresses, and a night for Champagne dreams, flapper dresses, and a night for Broadway in Cleveland? Count me in! ✨🥂  Last night we stepped back into the Roaring Twenties for media night at @bwaygatsby at @playhousesquare!  My sister and I snagged our 1920s-inspired outfits and made a whole evening of it. We started with happy hour at @encorepsq, the stylish bar right across the street from Playhouse Square, which had the perfect swanky Gatsby vibes. I love their happy hours specials too! Then we grabbed a quick dinner at Sushi En before heading into the theater.  And wow... this show is BIG Broadway. Think stunning costumes, gorgeous sets, incredible choreography, and all the glitz and glamour you'd expect from Gatsby. The production is visually spectacular and brings the lavish world of Jay Gatsby to life in a way that feels larger than life. If you love classic stories, dazzling performances, and a little Jazz Age sparkle, add this one to your summer theater list. ✨🎭  The Great Gatsby is playing at Playhouse Square through June 28 as part of the KeyBank Broadway Series. Tickets are currently still available and can be purchased by calling 216-241-6000 or online at playhousesquare.org.  Who else loves a themed night out? 🍾  #thegreatgatsby #BroadwayCleveland #BWYCLE #BwayGatsbyTour
🎭 Did you know you can take a FREE behind-the-scen 🎭 Did you know you can take a FREE behind-the-scenes tour of @playhousesquare? 🎭 Everyone needs to add this to their Cleveland bucket list!  Free public tours of Playhouse Square are offered on the third Saturday of every month, and they're packed with fascinating history, hidden details, and stories you probably never knew. You'll learn how this incredible theater district went from nearly being demolished in the 1970s to becoming the largest theater restoration project in the world.  Did you know that Playhouse Square is the second-largest performing arts district in the United States, behind only Broadway in New York City, with 12 performance venues throughout the district?  One of my favorite parts was getting to see everything up close and in detail without the usual crowds. From the stunning architecture to the behind-the-scenes stories, there were so many things I've walked past for years without realizing their significance.  If you've ever attended a show, or even if you haven't, I highly recommend taking this tour. It's a whole new way to experience one of Cleveland's most iconic treasures. ❤️  Have you ever taken a Playhouse Square tour? Be sure to tell a friend! 🎟️👇  #PlayhouseSquare #ClevelandOhio #thisiscleveland #CLE #clevelandevents
Another Put-In-Bay giveaway coming soon! ☀️ Summe Another Put-In-Bay giveaway coming soon!  ☀️ Summer is officially here, and what better way to celebrate than a girls' day at Put-in-Bay! 🚢💙  We hopped aboard the @millerboatline for a scenic ride to the island and rented golf carts from @esputinbay to explore all the fun spots around the @visitputinbay island. Did you know you can save money when you book them together? Check out the E's Golf Cart & Miller Ferry Put-in-Bay Discount Package when you reserve at least one day in advance!  One of the reasons we love Miller Ferry is that it's the most affordable way to get to the island, and it's the only ferry that lets you bring your car. Plus, E's Golf Carts is conveniently located just around the corner from the Miller Ferry drop-off.  The weather was absolutely gorgeous! We spent the day shopping, cruising around the island by golf cart, enjoying lunch at The Keys, relaxing at the little beach on the tip of the island, and taking a short hike to soak in the views.  Put-in-Bay is such a fun destination for both groups and families. If you're bringing kids, be sure to check out the highly rated caves on the islands, play a round of putt-putt, visit the Lake Erie Islands Nature & Wildlife Center, and stop by the Butterfly House for a colorful, family-friendly experience. (I usually just avoid the downtown area on weekend evenings if I'm visiting with kids.)  Who's ready for an island day trip?  #putinbay #MillerFerry #GirlsTrip #OhioAdventures #LakeErieIslands
🦖 My niece, brother, and I had a ROARing good time 🦖 My niece, brother, and I had a ROARing good time at  @gocmnh on Sunday for DINO DAY! 🦕✨  A big thank you to @realgoodfoods for inviting us to this fun family event! We explored the museum, checked out life-sized dinosaurs, enjoyed hands-on activities, crafts, face painting, and interactive exhibits throughout the day. They even gave away COUPONS!!  Of course, one of the highlights was sampling Realgood Foods' dino chicken nuggets! I personally eat Realgood chicken - there is always a bag in my freezer. It is high protein and low carb! I eat a lot of chicken and I'm picky with my brands, but I enjoy this treat when I need something fast and tasty!  It was such a fun day filled with dinosaurs, learning, and making memories together. 🦖❤️
