Frugal Family: Weekly Deals for Homes

Discounts on food, fashion, and specialty toys

Frugal Family is committed to finding five great deals for you each week in Buckhead. Today’s article introduces you to a specialty toy store in North Buckhead that offers free gift wrapping and free personalization — a huge plus for busy parents and the never ending purchase of birthday gifts. The store has discounts on puzzles, summer toys and a generous coupon you can use through the end of the month.

Our food deals are especially appealing with several coupons for use at a popular Atlanta cantina with appetizing Mexican fare and another that certainly won’t leave you waffling as to whether you should try it out.

For our healthier audience (and those who want to be), there's a great opportunity to stock up on essential vitamins, supplements and protein shakes. You can then go shopping during a sale we found where even thrifty people can buy couture this summer and no one will ever know it was a frugal find.
