I was recently sent a box from My Blog Spark along with some Progresso broth and kitchen items. Panko are Japanese style breadcrumbs that produce a crispier yet lighter crust than traditional breadcrumbs. Progresso has Panko available in plain and Italian flavors.<br /><br />Progresso broths are 100% natural and use high quality ingredients to achieve a great homemade taste. They are fat free, gluten free, contain no preservatives, no added MSG and no artificial flavors. Progresso broth is available in chicken and reduced sodium chicken and beef flavors.<br /><br />Food Network Chef Michael Chiarello is providing tips and recipes at <a href="http://www.progressofoods.com/">ProgressoFoods.com </a>and <a href="http://www.progressbroth.com/">ProgressoBroth.com</a> for all occasions - from the every day to holiday - on how to use panko and broth in your recipes. There is a great recipe for Oven Fried Chicken Tenders using panko that kids and adults alike will love!

I was happy to be sent a box of Bumble Bee Tuna products as a result of my participation on the <a href="http://www.nicolesnickels.net/2009/10/im-member-of-bumble-bee-foods-bee-squad.html">Bumble Bee Bee Squad</a>. Along with the box of tuna products came several recipes. We recently had a conference call with Bumble Bee Foods and I was happy to learn about these other uses for tuna that aren't sandwiches or tuna noodle casserole.<br /><br />The first recipe card I received is for Pizza with Prosciutto. I decided not to make this since I am not a prosciutto fan. I decided to make the Mediterranean-Style Rigatoni Pasta. It was so easy to open the can of tuna instead of worrying about defrosting another protein as I normally would have. The pasta was very flavorful with vegetables (peppers, onions, tomatoes), olives and the tuna. I added more than a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes though since I like it spicy!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4QHaTA9DyEdyITvTOkdJYvrMw5UuMGm0qCp4ua5mRyi5g-ZeIOaimzu_4SXLvaSg5fld0iSvPoU1Zy77d4eYHFCzz1Eg6_EUzNaixLr7jOGGaLStLcSgP1U2x65u31Z3CPH5-PYb3mWiS/s1600-h/images.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 116px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 116px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5399207724841604146" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4QHaTA9DyEdyITvTOkdJYvrMw5UuMGm0qCp4ua5mRyi5g-ZeIOaimzu_4SXLvaSg5fld0iSvPoU1Zy77d4eYHFCzz1Eg6_EUzNaixLr7jOGGaLStLcSgP1U2x65u31Z3CPH5-PYb3mWiS/s320/images.jpg" /></a><br />Bumble Bee has many more recipes for their products available on their website. Currently, if you sign up for <a href="http://www.bumblebee.com/MyCookbook/HP3Register/?utm_source=email&utm_medium=Wave1&utm_campaign=HP2009">My Cookbook </a>on <a href="http://www.bumblebee.com/MyCookbook/HP3Register/?utm_source=email&utm_medium=Wave1&utm_campaign=HP2009">BumbleBee.com </a>(it's FREE) you'll be given access to a large library of searchable recipes as well as high-value coupons.<br /><br />Bumble Bee has other products besides tuna, such as clams, shrimp, and salmon. My next recipe will use the can of salmon I was sent. I'm anxious to try the chile lime salmon tacos or the wasabi salmon and asian slaw - both sound yummy!<br /><br />I also wanted to bring your attention to Bumble Bee's <a href="http://www.bumblebee.com/Sustainability/">commitment to sustainability</a>. This is a brand you can feel good about giving to your family!<br /><br /><em>I received this valuable information from my participation on Bumble Bee's Bee Squad. I received a box of free products from them a month ago but received no additional compensation for this post or my participation on the Bee Squad.</em>Nicole @ Nicole's Nickelshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03244068149762883520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9137698796216536450.post-78279320954926098242009-11-10T17:30:00.002-05:002009-11-10T17:30:00.871-05:00Donate Your Old Coat To Make a Difference!Lands' End has joined forces with the National Coalition for the Homeless to start the campaign called <a href="http://www.bigwarmup.com/">The Big Warm-up</a>.

Make sure to save those lids and read this post to find out how you can make a difference in the fight against breast cancer!<br /><br />1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer during their lifetime - that's 12% of women! Yoplait's Save Lids to Save Lives program aims to raise money and awareness of the fight against breast cancer women are facing. To participate, purchase the Yoplait yogurts with the pink foil lids and mail them in. For every lid collected before December 31, 2009, Yoplait will donate 10 cents to Susan G. Komen for the cure. Yoplait has guaranteed a minimum $500,000 donation with a maximum of $1.5 million!<br /><br />Yoplait has also created a new website, <a href="http://yourlidmatters.com/">Your Lid Matters</a>, where you can create online lid collection teams. You can also inform your friends and family of the effort through the site.<br /><br />During the past 11 years, Yoplait has donated more than $22 million to the breast cancer cause through Save Lids to Save Lives and other initiatives, and last year, participants across the country helped Yoplait meet its $1.5 million donation goal to Susan G. Komen for the Cure. This year, make sure you are a part of this phenomenal and inspiring campaign!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZkWWcrLOxS4Xxw7t0bTDAB4oFx1A3mOhpBg-1WWskRzhdSkARR-Gc6UqNHvq4ECyjJePeeusqqvK7nVG1ZtrL2sPJAsufBaNoBlrGjtWJmukVnTxySBsweXQeenYuSn7d6Wpf3OY-3KXi/s1600-h/Yoplait+SLSL+Gift+Photo.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 213px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5399201109346030850" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZkWWcrLOxS4Xxw7t0bTDAB4oFx1A3mOhpBg-1WWskRzhdSkARR-Gc6UqNHvq4ECyjJePeeusqqvK7nVG1ZtrL2sPJAsufBaNoBlrGjtWJmukVnTxySBsweXQeenYuSn7d6Wpf3OY-3KXi/s320/Yoplait+SLSL+Gift+Photo.jpg" /></a>The folks over at Yoplait and My Blog Spark have graciously decided to give (1) of my readers the Promise to Make a Difference Gift (pictured above), that includes a free coupon for Yoplait YoPlus Yogurt, a breast cancer awareness bracelet, and a leather jewelry case.<br /><br />I have changed up my giveaway method a little and instead of leaving a comment on this post you'll just fill out the entry form below.

Along with <a href="http://www.saveupevent.com/who-is-attending/">24 other bloggers</a>, I was flown to San Francisco where I attended the Save Up Event last week.<br /><br />The Save Up Event was a great one-day event where I got to meet <a href="http://www.saveupevent.com/who-is-attending/">like-minded DealPros </a>like myself! I was excited to meet bloggers whose blogs I have been following for a long time and of course to finally meet <a href="http://coupondad.net/">Coupon Dad</a>, who I felt like I already knew!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjL1tvBg_NrfsLrLvlt60TkO6YTyx2nWY2YRz_qGxEd2LR7M4fR9kbDbtrBHadF2fiAAHU88yklBuiMLrnJWfuxBxeBNcukKOPbyiEmtV8iTGo1L8N5_MeqbYZkNtmmCdWaVuvYFCtktgq-/s1600-h/imagesCAORTIKG.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 116px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 45px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5401750552212879394" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjL1tvBg_NrfsLrLvlt60TkO6YTyx2nWY2YRz_qGxEd2LR7M4fR9kbDbtrBHadF2fiAAHU88yklBuiMLrnJWfuxBxeBNcukKOPbyiEmtV8iTGo1L8N5_MeqbYZkNtmmCdWaVuvYFCtktgq-/s320/imagesCAORTIKG.jpg" /></a>We had a great time and learned a lot about savings.com, a phenomenal website I will blog more about at a later date. We had a <a href="http://www.saveupevent.com/agenda/">full agenda </a>of panel discussions, roundtable discussions, lots of food and lots of laughs! I came back from the trip exhausted but exhilarated, having met people just like me who also have a passion for deals!<br /><br />Savings.com pulled out all the stops for us on the trip and we felt like savings royalty! I'm excited to get more involved in their community-based website where users work together to find and share the best deals. <br /><br /><em>As a DealPro, I received an all-expense paid trip to San Francisco sponsored by savings.com. They did not ask me to write this post or do anything in exchange for the trip. My opinions remain my own.</em>Nicole @ Nicole's Nickelshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03244068149762883520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9137698796216536450.post-91151027893967333892009-11-09T17:44:00.002-05:002009-11-09T17:44:00.560-05:00Target Deals, Week of 11/8Collin over at <a href="http://hip2save.blogspot.com/2009/11/target-deals-118-1114-price-matching.html">Hip2Save</a> has a great list of Target deals.

You can access these coupons from the blue widget on my right sidebar that has 3 coupons on it or by <a href="http://print.coupons.com/couponweb/index.aspx?pid=13903&nid=10&zid=xh20&cid=0&bid=1053130001">clicking here</a>. Some of them are not available in all zip codes.

Remember to contact your local stores to see what their policy on accepting Internet printables is! It's best to print as many as you think you may need as soon as you see them (read: right now) because you never know when a coupon will reach its print limit. Print now, hold on to them, and wait for a good deal to use them!<br /><br />FYI - sometimes coupons reset several times each month so even if you have already printed 2 of a certain coupon, try to print it again - if you're lucky, it was reset and you can print 2 more!<br /><br />*NEW* Any Brand 2 lb or more Cheese, $1.50/1<br />*NEW* Any Brand Chocolate Milk, wyb 2 Gals. of Milk, $1.00/1<br
