Save Money with Coupons $$$$$$$

Saving money when we shop by utilizing coupons is not a new idea.  And many of us think about doing it and can find it hard to set aside the time to do it on a regular basis.  But once you get in the habit and realize the savings, it CAN become routine.  A great source of good value coupons is the Sunday newspaper.  They seem to be adding quite a few inserts to each paper.  It only takes a few minutes to cut them out and easily save $5.00 on your next rtrip to the store.  Give your unused coupons to a friend.

Anna's will have coupons at our store for baby products - usually things like diapers, (think name brand) feeding, etc. which you can use at the grocery.  Free to you, no purchase necesary. Stop by and take a look at our bulletin board in the front of the store.

Flamingo Lagoon: Now Open at the Nashville Zoo

The Nashville Zoo’s newest exhibit is the Flamingo Lagoon, with a flock of 30 Caribbean flamingos. According to the Nashville Zoo, these are the largest and most brightly colored of the species. The exhibit is located between Critter Encounters and the Tapir exhibit. The exhibit opening was delayed due to the flood earlier this year in Nashville. The Caribbean flamingos are beautiful with their vibrant pink and orange feathers, and long legs and necks. Children love to view these magnificent animals. There are some shaded areas in which they can be viewed, so this makes it nice for the little ones and family members and friends when they visit. You can even take your own snacks and lunch into the zoo, or purchase food and beverages while there. You can as well take your own stroller or wagon, or rent a stroller.  They have a wonderful playground too. There are several spots to stop and rest and eat too. www.nashvilllezoo.org
