Rise and Shine is my way of sitting down and having a cup of coffee with you! We talk about the new deals of the day, highlights from yesterday, and anything else that might help us save time, money or energy. I share with you what’s happening with me – and I LOVE to hear about what’s happening with you.
Good morning!
Last night we headed to our local library to collect books to kick off our summer reading. After months of regular work with our son he’s making awesome progress in his reading and we are trying to encourage him with a Summer Reading Journal. It’s just a notebook where we are documenting each book he reads (he writes the title) and then we right a synopsis of what the book was about to make sure he’s comprehending what we’re reading. He earns a whopping $0.50 per book. We picked up a huge stack of Level 1 Readers at our local library last night and I’m reminded how much I love our library. Are your kids doing a summer reading program? If, so how do you structure yours? I’d love to hear!
For those of you who are in Timberland Regional Library area, the official summer reading program starts Monday. Kids can get free tickets to the zoo, Northwest Trek, Children’s museum and other local attractions if they participate! More info here. Not from the area? Check your local library for a similar program!

FOR THE LOCAL NW FOLKS
Still available *HOT* deal – Today over on DealSaver you can get a $14 Menchies voucher for just $7. Plus use coupon code QUEENBEE and you’ll save $5 off your first purchase (this deal or ANY deal) – making it only $2! Start here, create a DealSaver account, select Tacoma and pick what Menchies store you want your voucher for.
Puget Sound friends – here’s a News Tribune discount! For those of you wanting MULTIPLE Sunday papers, you can get up to NINE (9) of these subscription offers. Just multiple the number of papers you want by the package price. So if you want two Sunday papers delivered each week, you’d buy either two 26-week packages for $78 or you’d pay $104 for an entire year, 52 weeks of delivery. The big bummer is this is a pre-paid offer, so you’d have to pay that up front. But the good news is this can help those of you heading to the Dollar Tree every day and spending the money anyway! Get all the details here.
Have a great day!
Get Rise and Shine as a daily email! If you prefer to get your deals in this round-up format, you can subscribe to get Rise and Shine delivered to you as an email immediately after I publish each morning. I announced it yesterday and I already have a handful of you who have subscribed – thank you and I hope you enjoy getting it delivered to you. Get more details here.

Thank you for all the work you put into this site. Today you saved me a ton of money on the Little Giant Ladder! My husband has wanted one for several years but couldn’t justify the price. Now we have one on the way!!!!! This would make a great Fathers Day gift. Thanks again!
