Meijer or Kroger

Has anyone compared prices at Meijer and Kroger? I can't tell which one has the lowest prices. It seems to me that maybe groceries are lower at Kroger while produce is lower at Meijer. There is no doubt that deli meats are lower at Meijer. I would rather shop at Kroger as it is less crowded and crazy, but not if I end up spending more. What have you all find to be best?

Party Foods for 100 People. Cheap, but Good

I am having a 40th bday party for my husband in a few weeks. 118 people (all adults) are invited. I am not requesting RSVPs, so don't know how many will show. It is a busy summer, so maybe like 60%. I need some good appetizer foods (party starts at 7pm, so not having a dinner) to serve that are good, filling, easy to make, and won't cost a fortune. Doesn't need to be fancy... party is at our house and majority of people will most likely spend most of the time in our garage/outside around the pool and deck or basement. Alot of people...

Ideas for ONE Goody-bag Gift for 5-Year-old Party?

A couple of moms and I are going in on a joint birthday party for our kids, who all turn 5 around the same time. We're looking for a good idea for a party giveaway, and like the idea of finding a single thing/toy to give the kids, boys and girls, vs. a bag full of trinkets & candy. Looking to spend $2-4 per kid, if possible. Does anyone have ideas?

Boys Birthday Party Ideas

My son is turning 6 very soon and Im not sure what to do for his party. Im a little annoyed at how much all the usual parties cost, like the jumping places or gym places. They all seem to be around $300 for a group of 7-10. It seems like a lot to spend on a 2 hour party for 6 year olds. Does anyone feel the same or am I being crazy? Do you have any other ideas? Im running out of time and will probably end up booking one of these places because I don't know what else to do. Ive looked into magicians that come to the house and they are...

Advice/Suggestion On Baby Shower Gifts

Hi...My workplace is having a combined baby shower for three women who are expecting this spring. All three are having their first, all are having boys, and all have had other baby showers. The registry items at Babies R Us are all too expensive, especially considering I have to buy three of everything! I would really like to get something original and something they will use or need. Any suggesttions or things YOU got at showers that were special, memorable, or especially thoughtful?

Hello, One of my dearest friends is expecting her first child at the age of 38. My children are ages 7 & 10 and it's been a while since I've purchased a book suitable for a new mommy.
