Homemaking on a Budget – Weekly Deals & Sales – May 15, 2015
Welcome to our new weekly feature – Homemaking on a Budget! I missed posting this last week because I had an issue getting logged into my site on Thursday and Friday. But I’m back with all new deals for this week!
As a homemaker who is in charge of purchasing most things for our house (food, household items, appliances, home decor, books, and more) I am always on the look out for ways to stay within my budget – without spending too much of my precious time. As a note – there are a LOT of deals this week so this is a long one! But scroll through to the bottom because there are some good deals and sales going on this week.
So as we find these deals, freebies, and sales throughout the week, we are going to compile them all here every Friday so you can quickly browse through and find any deals or freebies that are perfect for your household!
Often throughout the week I will post freebies or deals I find on Facebook, but I know that not everyone is on Facebook or you miss the deals as they are posted. I wanted to make it as easy as possible for you to find the things that will help you stick to your budget within your homemaking. So join me here every Friday for Homemaking on a Budget!

Mama’s Sweet Pea Personalized Necklaces
A couple of weeks ago I shared a great deal on necklaces for Mother’s Day, and I know many of you were bummed that you missed the flash sale. These are not the same necklaces, but are still pretty cute and would make a great gift for any mamas in your life (or for yourself)! Check out all the colors and designs on Jane this week.

Weekly Pregnancy Stickers – 6 Different Designs
I love the idea of pregnancy stickers! I did them every week with my first set of twins and just never got around to it this time haha. But these pregnancy stickers are some of the cutest I’ve seen (and they have 6 different designs). They are $6.49 + $2.49 shipping = $8.98 shipped! That’s a pretty low price from what I’ve seen for weekly pregnancy stickers.

Essential Oil Online Conference – FREE for three more days
This online essential oil summit has been amazing so far!! If you are even remotely interested in essential oils, I highly recommend you log in to listen live for FREE. It runs May 11 – 18 so there are still a few more days of the live conference. The conference is free to listen to each day’s sessions. So for example, today (Friday) you can listen to all of today’s sessions today for FREE when you register. But the catch is, you can only listen to them the days that the sessions are live.
I’ve listened to 5 sessions so far and they have been great! One of the sessions I found a little too clinical and got bored part way through – but the other 4 have been great and I can’t wait to listen to the rest. We have a really busy week here around the Balmet household and knew I couldn’t listen to them all live, so I went ahead and purchased the conference before the price goes up (again) and I’m glad I did.
So you can listen to the conference for FREE as it’s live each day when you register here —> https://un233.isrefer.com/go/summitreg/youngwifesguide/
Or purchase the sessions and you get to keep them forever and listen to them whenever you want —> https://un233.isrefer.com/go/summitorder/youngwifesguide/
Here are the sessions that are up for today (I can’t WAIT to listen to all four of these):
