Fru-Gal Update October 30

The Fru-Gal and Frisch's Big Boy want to wish everyone a Happy Halloween. Frisch's has given me a $25 dollar gift card for one of my lucky readers to enjoy a nice meal with their family. Just email me back morrisjjm103@aol.com with I Love Frisch's in the subject line. On Monday morning I will choose one reader as the winner and contact them by email for their address. Don't forget to stop by Frisch's for their $1 coupon book full of coupons for the kids. This is a great treat to give the kids on Halloween.

Column October 28

Saving the environment can also save you money. I know how hard it can be to try to be green. I have tried planting a garden, putting out rain barrels even had my husband put a bucket in his shower to catch the water while he is waiting for the water to get warm. Saving money is a great incentive to be green, turning off the lights, unplugging electronic devices, hanging clothes outside, wearing a sweater, let the sun help heat your house, put plastic on your windows and plenty more. Learn more about being green and saving money by attending the FREE 2010 Bluegrass GreenExpo on October 30 from 10am to 6pm and October 31 from 12pm to 6pm at Heritage Center, Lexington Center. http://bluegrassgreenworks.org/bluegrass-greenexpo
