These weather patterns are throwing off my body. From freezing cold and snowy days last week to temperatures in the low 70s today, I’m getting confused on when to wear long-sleeved outfits. The forecast for tomorrow is back to a high of 40.

Besides trying to figure out my wardrobe, my sinuses are having difficulty adjusting. I go from a pressure headache to constantly blowing my nose. I’m getting worn out, so I’m resting more, drinking lots of water, and relaxing. Thus far, it is working to help me stay healthy.

In relaxing with my family last week, Paul, Miss 3, and I visited Mr. 8 and Miss 6 at school. We purchased our family lunch for $3.24 and received 5 personal pan pizzas and 4 stuffed pizza rollers. What a deal!

Four FREE Personal Pan Pizzas

Our two older children participate in the Book It reading program at their school. When they reach their monthly reading goal (set by their teacher), they receive a coupon for a FREE one-topping personal pan pizza from Pizza Hut. As our local Pizza Hut accepts multiple coupons at one time, we used 4 coupons to receive four FREE personal pan pizzas.

FREE Stuffed Pizza Rollers

By signing up for e-mail updates and offers, I had an anniversary with Pizza Hut. To thank me, Pizza Hut sent me a coupon for a FREE order of stuffed pizza rollers with any online food purchase.

$3.24 Personal Pan Pizza

Since we needed one more pizza and an online food purchase, we chose another personal pan pizza for $3. With tax, our total came to $3.24.

Pizza Hut Tips

Since I ordered 2 cheese personal pan pizzas that incur an additional charge for the cheese, I placed two online orders. The first order was the 4 personal pan pizzas, and the second order was the 1 personal pan pizza and the stuffed pizza rollers.

By splitting up the orders according to the coupons used, the first order totaled FREE, and the second order came to $3.24.

In stretching our dollars, we combined the Book It rewards with an anniversary coupon to feed our family of 5 a pizza lunch costing $3.24. At a price of $.65 per person, we got a steal of a deal.

As you combine rewards, coupons, and promotions, the savings will pile up. Though money is tight for many, the key is finding combinations of discounts to stretch your dollars. Happy savings!
