Wendy's® Jr. Frosty™ Halloween Coupon Book


I've been a fan of Wendy's® since I was a teenager. Back then I'd go thru the drive-thru with my friends before basketball games or with my brothers after school to grab some early dinner.

These days whenever I want to treat my kids to a fun budget friendly dinner I still choose Wendy's®. My family loves their burgers and their Jr. Frosty™ treats. In this Texas heat a Frosty is the best way to wrap up dinner. I enjoy our family time and all the laughs we share together.

I'm happy to share with you that you can get a Jr. Frosty™ Halloween Coupon Book for $1 during the month of October. Ninety cents of every $1 Halloween Coupon Book sold between September 13 to October 31, 2014 will benefit the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption® . Coupons are valid for use: November 1, 2014 through February 1, 2015.

I can't imagine life with out my two little ones. All children deserve a loving, caring home that they feel safe in. That they can call their own. Did you know that there are more than 100,000 children in foster care awaiting adoption? Thanks to Wendy's® consumers and the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption®, 4000+ children have found adoptive families. 

For 22 years, Wendy's® has supported foster care adoption. This year, Wendy's® aims to give $10 million to the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption®.

I love the idea of a coupon book. We'll be using our coupons to reward Savannah for completing her chores and reading minutes every week. Everyday we check off her tasks and we log her reading minutes. At the end of the week if she has met her goal we treat her to a Jr. Frosty™ using her coupon book.

The coupon books would also make really nice stocking stuffers, teacher gifts or a nice addition to your  candy bowl for trick or treaters.  

Visit your local Wendy's® to purchase a Jr. Frosty™Halloween Coupon Book* for $1, which benefits the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption®!

*Coupon book may contain coupons for 5 or 10 free Jr. Frosty™ treats. Prices and participation may vary. Ninety cents of every $1 coupon booklet sold between 9/15/14 and 10/31/14 will benefit the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption®. Coupons valid from 11/1/14 to through 2/1/15. ©2014 Oldemark LLC

Giving Back to Veterans: Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund


Hi there it's me. I'm sorry I haven't been around much lately. When I said that I was going to live more in my 30s I meant it. It's hard to live and blog at the same time I'm finding. One of the things that I've been doing more of is getting involved in my community.

As you might remember I am an Army Wife. One of the ways I have been trying to give back to my community is getting involved with more of what goes on here on base. Giving back to our veterans and active service members is something that I've always wanted to do. I'm glad to finally be at a place where I'm able to serve the community that serves us all.

Over the summer I'll be working with the youth on base in a couple different ways. I'm excited about what's to come. You always learn something when you reach out to others and I'm ready for my lesson.

I'm finding that there are so many ways to give back to our veterans. One way to give back is by drinking wine. Yep. That's right. You can have your wine and drink it too and give back in the process.

CK Mondavi is the only American made/grown wine in the “supermarket wine under $10” category. A percentage of each bottle sold between May-August is donated to Intrepid Fallen Heroes (up to $50,000).


Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund (IFHF), an organization that supports the men and women of the Armed Forces and their families. Funded entirely by public donations, IFHF serves U.S. military personnel wounded or killed in service to our nation and their families. 

I have been enjoying the CK Mondavi Chardonnay. I mix it with a lemon lime soda and it's such a refreshing drink. It's pretty tasty on it's own too.


“Please comment below to share your own story about supporting veterans and/or American-made products. I will select ONE reader to be entered into CK Mondavi’s grand prize drawing by May 15. The grand prize is a $500 donation to the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund in the winner’s name!”
