I found this wonderful and cute Slime and Floam website to purchase my slime and floam from: Slime and Floam

Slime and Floam reduces your levels of stress and anxiety and is great for ASMR and relaxation, plus it is downright fun to play with.  Both Slime and Floam are made to different consistencies, textures and styles, all adding up to a FUN time!

She makes all the slime and floam herself, without machines and she makes a Slime Smorgasbord of varieties, anything from Crunchy Slime, Crunchy Floam, Soft Floam, Soft Slime, Glossy Slime, Neon Slime, Neon Floam, Glitter Slimes, Glitter Floams, Floams with Beads, Slime with Beads, Slushie Slimes, Slushie Floams, Fishbowl Slime, Fishbowl Floam, DIY Slime, DIY Floam, and offers accessories, such as Kawaii Squishy Toys, Scented Erasers, Glitter for Slimes, Glitter for Floams, Beads for Slime, Beads for Floam, Mini Beads, Micro Beads, Glass Beads and everything you need to make your own Slime or make your own Floam.

Floam:  Floam is slime made with micro beads, which gives it a unique texture. The texture depends on how many beads are used and size dependent to provide a variety of fun textures.

Slime: Slime is made with or without beads, glitter, and has a smoother feel than Floam.

Characteristics: Both Slime and Floam have unique characteristics, some are fluffy, some are jiggly and anything in between.

Slime & Floam Questions ?

 

Why did the beads separate from the Slime/Floam after shipping?

The foam beads are lighter than the slime and will “float” to the top of the container, when you store it or ship it. when you open your slime, simply knead it back together with your hands.

Why is my Slime/Floam Sticky?

Slime and Floam will have varying consistencies, depending on storage and especially shipping. We have included Borax activator with instructions to reduce the stickiness upon arrival of your purchase. Before you open your slime container, be sure to read the enclosed instructions.

Can you eat this Slime/Floam?

Definitely Not! Slime/Floam is made with Elmer’s Glue, Borax and other lotions. Would you really eat glue?

Clipping Coupons to make you a Smart Shopper

Coupon Clipping  to make you a Smart Shopper

Clipping Coupons can reduce the price you pay at the cash register, but do they result in real savings? Are they worth the time and hassle? Here are 10 things to keep in mind when considering whether or not to clip:

Is it something you’d buy, even without a coupon?     

If you’re tempted to buy something simply because you “have the coupon” and it’s not something you’d buy otherwise, you’re not really saving money, no matter how much the coupon is worth.

Are you paying extra for a brand name?

Most coupons are for brand-name products, which are sometimes still more expensive than comparable house brands or generic products even after a coupon discount.

Time is money.

Before going coupon-crazy and coupon clipping, remember thattime is money. It’s a waste of time to clip and organize coupons you don’t use. You can waste even more time, and gas, if you have to visit multiple stores in order to redeem them. Save only those coupons for things you know you’ll actually buy, and at the stores where you normally shop.

Watch your intake of processed foods versus those cooked from scratch.

Grocery coupons tend to be more common for processed and prepared foods (including snack foods) as opposed to cooking staples, such as meat and dairy products, or fresh fruits and vegetables. Make sure your diet doesn’t suffer as a result of relying too heavily on coupon products.

The devil is in the details.      

Read the fine print on the coupon before you put an item in your shopping cart. Otherwise, when you get to the checkout line, you may be in for an unpleasant surprise. Check coupon expiration dates, product-packing info, and other details carefully. The pretty picture on the front of the coupon may be misleading in terms of the actual offer and what’s required for redemption.

Always compare the per-unit pricing. 

“Per-unit pricing” (which can also be called “cost per ounce,” “cost per count,” or “cost per serving”) is usually found on the shelf label, for most products sold in grocery stores. This simple price breakdown allows you to do the math and figure out whether a product is truly less expensive than a comparable product with a coupon.

Beware of “BOGO.”

“Buy-one-get-one-free” deals can often be a good value, provided that you can actually use two of the same item. Remember, it’s sometimes possible to save even more and use two coupons when taking advantage of a store-sponsored BOGO offer, since technically you’re buying two of the items, even if one is “free.”

Downsizing can pay off with coupons.

If a coupon is for a fixed value (that is, not a percentage off) and doesn’t specify the size of the product package, the best value oftentimes is buying the smallest, least expensive size. That’s when you can sometimes pay only pennies, or nothing at all, for an item when using coupons.

Print coupons online.

A growing number of Web sites have sprouted up allowing you to print out manufacturer coupons online. Online coupons frequently have higher value than the ones you find in the newspaper.

Earn the grocery-shopping trifecta.

It’s hard not to get excited when you can use a coupon for an item that is already on sale, and you top it off by using your supermarket loyalty card for additional frequent-shopping perks. That’s once, twice, three times the savings!

Tips for smart shopping by phone or mail

Shopping by phone or mail can be a convenient and satisfactory way to shop for goods. Many marketers provide toll-free ordering and quick delivery. However, as with any type of transaction, there are still things you should keep in mind.

When ordering:

• Shop around and compare costs and services.
• Deal only with companies or charities whose reputation and integrity are known.
• Don’t be pressured into acting immediately or without the full information you need.
• Before ordering, check the company’s return policy.
• Always keep a record of the name, address and phone number of the company, goods you ordered, date of your purchase, amount you paid (including shipping and handling), and method of payment.
• Never give out your credit card number or personal, financial or employment information unless you know with whom you are dealing.
• Keep a record of any delivery that was promised.
• If you are told that the shipment will be delayed, write the date of that notice in your records and the new shipping date, if you’ve agreed to wait longer.
• If merchandise is damaged, contact the company immediately. If you’re asked to return it, get a receipt from the shipper.
• Report all fraudulent activity to your local authorities.

Unsolicited goods:

• You are under no obligation to accept or pay for any merchandise you receive in the mail that you did not order. In most states, when the sender asks for the merchandise back you must return it at the sender’s expense; however, in some states you cannot be required to pay for the goods or services unless you agreed to do so in writing. To complain about unsolicited goods, contact your local consumer protection agency.

• Take time to decide in advance exactly what you want and what you can afford.
• Going to the grocery store can be stressful. There’s so much to choose from, and it may seem like there’s never enough time or money to buy what you need. Here are some tips to make your trips to the store faster, less costly, and healthier for you and your family. Smart grocery shopping
  

  Grocery Shopping Organization

  • Make a shopping list and stick to it. Planning ahead can help you avoid buying foods on impulse, and keep within your budget. Include the grocery store specials for the week in your planning. Look for fresh fruits and vegetables in season.
  • Start shopping at the outside aisle. Choose fresh fruits and vegetables, low-fat milk, lean meats, poultry, fish and whole grain breads before shopping for convenience items and snacks. (The center aisles are where more costly pre-packaged and heavily processed foods are sold.)
  • Don’t shop when you’re hungry. When you put off grocery shopping until you are really hungry, you are more likely to buy foods that you wouldn’t normally buy and that are higher in fat and calories.
  • When choosing between different brands of the same product, check the nutrition labels and choose the one that is the lowest in fat and sodium.
  • In the summer months, consider buying produce at your local farmers market. It can be cheaper than the supermarket, and the fruits and vegetables are fresher.Consider buying large quantities of some fruits and vegetables and freezing them for the winter months. The farmer’s market can be a fun outing for your family! 
  • Buy fresh fruits and vegetables in season.  Not only are they cheaper they will also taste better.
  • Buy frozen fruits and vegetables.
    • Be sure to buy them plain without added seasonings or sauces.
    • Buy large bags of frozen vegetables.
  • Buy canned fruits and vegetables.
    • Look for fruits canned in their own juices.  Avoid ones that are packaged in syrup.
    • Drain and rinse canned vegetables to remove added salt.
  • Buy store or generic brands over name brands.
  • Use coupons. But buy only the foods you and your family normally eat.
  • Look for specials at the grocery store on fruits and vegetables.
