Here are this weeks Costco coupons.  Happy shopping and big thank you to couponlady.

I was reading through Stephs post about how there are so many group buy sites these days, and came across a few complaints on a site called Deal55.  They offer gift cards for 55% off the retail price.  Some readers are calling foul while others are hopeful the site is real.  

 I never featured this group buy site on the blog because it just seems to good to be true. I would feel horrible sending our faithful readers to a site that could potentially be an identity theft scam. It just didn’t seem completely legit.

Has anyone actually received anything from this company?  It would be great if this site was the real deal,  I am really skeptical. Thoughts?

* With the responses I think it’s safe to say DO NOT purchase through this company. Only a small fraction of cards have ever been sent out.

Quiznos is offering another set of printable coupons.  They vary from buy a sub make it a combo free to save $2 off a large sub.  These coupons are sent out via their email club and are completely valid.  I do know that people do have trouble redeeming them at certain locations.  I would make them call head office since they are offered directly through them.  The coupons are valid until June 5th, and not applicable towards delivery orders.

On May 15th Nintendo is dropping the price of the Wii to only $150.  Wow, this has gone down quite a bit since we bought ours, but this is the way things always work. 

Heres what will come with the Wii: Mario Cart, Wii Wheel, Wii Remote Plus, and a Nunchuk.

Will you buy a Wii when the price drops? If you already own one do you enjoy it? We like ours, we even run our Netflix through it.

Camping. You may shudder when you hear that and it is certainly NOT for everyone.

Obviously, the main benefit is that it can be a very budget friendly summer vacation. At a fraction of the price of a hotel you can stay in the same location as you wanted to but have money saved or a lot more cash on hand for activities and shopping.

Choosing to camp, as your family vacation, can be great for the kids (it certainly was for ours). Whether it’s part of a vacation plan or camping IS the vacation it’s good fun for everyone. Our kids loved making s’mores, my wife loves napping on the hammock and I love making the fire and playing with it. We try and collect bugs, play some light outdoor games and take in all the fresh air. If you’re real cheap, you don’t even have to leave your own backyard. BEEN THERE!

Let me sum up my experiences by telling you about my last two vacations. Both were to Niagara Falls.

Last August we went to a campground just off the Falls Parkway that had access to a pool, mini-putt, a small park with slide and swings and a very clean bathroom\shower area. I took my wife and my two beautiful girls, Talim (6) and Kairi (3), for $33 per night. Since we were at the border and the Canadian Dollar was riding a high point we crossed over and hit some amazing children’s clothing deals and had Chili’s for dinner.

In March we stayed in Niagara Falls at two separate hotels (one with a water park but not the one you are thinking of) and another at a place overlooking the falls (no, not the casino). We stayed for three nights with each costing us over $125 and we booked with coupons, special deals and all the kids-eat-free we could find. While we still crossed the border and went to Chili’s all we had to declare when we got back was that we had fun.

I know this will be a polarizing topic. Let me know what you like and if you have any tips on finding a good place to go or how to plan.
