Frugal Family: Organizing, Gift-Giving and Sweet Eating

This week, Frugal Family has found an opportunity for readers to learn about organizing (and possibly win a gift card in the process), along with a chance to create a special and unique gift for a loved one. To top it off, we've found some sweet deals on smoothies, doughnuts and hot chocolate. Enjoy!

1)

Get yourself organized! Spring is around the corner (we hope), and The Container Store wants to help you de-clutter your office. Visit The Container Store’s Work Smart Office Demonstrations at 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays for presentations on organizational solutions and a chance to win a $25 Store More Card at each demonstration.

2)

Why not capture your child’s life forever in an incredibly unique and exciting way? Pat-a-Cakes will be at Child’s Play from 10 a.m. to noon on Saturday, creating custom ceramic impressions of little hands and feet. Scheduling a reservation is suggested. Just think: Ultra-personal gifts for Mother's Day and Father's Day!

3)

Forget about this week’s sleet and chill and warm up with a Berrycup Winter Special. Between now and Monday, buy two hot chocolates at Berrycup and get one free. Yum, yum, and yum.

4)

Call your playgroup, rally your friends, or just have a big, ole happy doughnut-eating day at Fractured Prune on Thursday, when you can buy three doughnuts and get three free. That's a whole lot of savings.

5)

This week’s Hot Deal is too hot to miss. Stop in at either Robeks locations in Rockville—at Town Center or at Congressional Plaza—through Sunday and enjoy 50 percent off of your entire purchase of Robeks fruit smoothies.
