We love this deal as we have used Veritas Press for years for some of our home education materials! In fact, when I was a child, my own parents purchased many materials from Vertias Press for our own home education.
So we were super excited to see that they are giving everyone a FREE $5 credit to spend on the Veritas Press site! This will help any homeschool or educational materials budget stretch even further! This is like getting a $5 gift certificate – and all you have to do is claim it!
They offer tons of materials for all grade levels and some additional educational supplements and even activities for younger children as well.
You can claim your $5 credit HERE and it will be credited to your account waiting for you when you check out next.
In addition, share this news with your friends and they too can claim a FREE $5 credit and you will also be rewarded with more credits as well!

Now that it is February 3rd and we are heading into the weekend, many of you may be preparing your taxes now that you received all of your final tax information in the mail this past week. We wanted to share with you some different tax options that are FREE for you to use! Turbo Tax is offering FREE tax preparation, printing and e-filing HERE.
We wanted to let you know about this one as it is FREE simple Federal Tax filing. But, we have also used them ourselves to prepare both our Federal and State taxes as we personally love how easy the site is to use, how they walk us through every step and so even a more complicated filing (such as a home business) is much easier. Plus their rates for preparing taxes beyond the FREE federal simple version is very reasonable – so you can get a FREEBIE on your simple Federal return and some decent rates for the rest. We will plan to use them again this year as well as it is a super slick process. In the past, they have also had options for your return that allows you to get paid sooner or even additional incentives.
Turbo Tax is not only offering the FREE Federal Tax preparation, printing and e-filings – but they guarantee that they can find you the maximum return you are able to get. Plus they offer FREE Tax advice to be able to talk to someone that can answer your questions – this is a nice feature and included for FREE!
We recommend quickly registering and then you can go back in whenever you want and import your tax information as you receive it. We usually will start our previous year’s return and just pop on real quick to add 1099 information and more as we receive it as all of the previous information is saved and then before we know it – IT’S DONE!
Please note, the FREE option can change at any time!

Amazon has a great deal on Bob’s Red Mill Gluten-Free Pizza Crust Mixes. They are selling a pack of four (4) 16oz. bags for $10.95 when you choose the subscribe and save option in the top right corner = $2.74 each shipped.
Walmart sells these for $3.93 each so this is a good deal and you can grab it from home!
This is a favorite in our home as well – this seems to be the theme with the deals today 
Here’s how to get this deal:
- Head to the Bob’s Red Mill Gluten-Free Pizza Crust Mix deal here
- You will see them on sale for $12.88 for 4 bags
- Then choose the subscribe and save option in the top right corner which will take another 15% off and drop the price to $10.95 for four 16-oz. bags or $2.74 each shipped FREE
Please note: the 15% discount is for the Subscribe and Save option. Amazon states that you can cancel subscribe and save at any time, including right after the order. So if you do not intend to continue having them automatically delivered, cancel the subscribe and save soon after so you do not forget (wait for your items to ship before canceling as it will cancel your current order)!
