SUMMARY:🛍 Shop Small Support Local
DESCRIPTION:We are working on creating a new and improved Rural Northeast Wisconsin Families Restaurant Guide!  Let us help make the mealtime decisions easier. \n\n\n\nAs a hockey family\, knowing who is open after games and practices\, that serves something for my entire family is a MUST-HAVE!  (so any restaurants within a 90-minute drive of Shawano is ideal) \n\n\n\nWe know a lot of people love to support their local businesses\, but may not know all the services that are provided. We’re working on closing that gap by offering a business directory. If you’re interested in becoming part of our business directory\, you can find out more here  We are also rolling out a Farm Fresh Directory.  \n\n\n\nWe have many affiliate partners where purchases you make with them\, will also help our small business.  (The following links are affiliate links and we may earn a commission on qualifying purchases at no additional cost to you.) \n\n\n\n\nPlant Therapy \n\n\n\nAmazon\n\n\n\nThink Board – use Code MarieVandenberg to save 20% off site-wide\n\n\n\nTry The World –\n\n\n\nReally Good Stuff\n\n\n\nChess. com – my teenager recently discovered a love of chess.\n\n\n\nHockey Monkey\n\n\n\nSteve Spangler Science – Save up to 60% off with our Clearance Sale \n\n\n\nNaturally Nestled\n\n\n\nmSpy – what are your kids doing on their phone/tablet that you can’t see?\n\n\n\nMud/Wtr – Save 20% sitewide with this link (first order only) (My Dr suggested trying this when I suffered consequences from drinking too much coffee. I use both the Mud/Wtr latte and Rest to help at bedtime when I can’t shut my brain off) I’ve recently added the Hot Cocoa and Nourish.\n\n\n\nZenni Optical – save $30 when you use my discount link. I’ve been ordering glasses from Zenni for over 15 years.  To order from Zenni\, you will need the PD number (pupillary distance).  For adults\, the number shouldn’t change.  It will change for kids.  Zenni accepts 1 and 2 number PDs.  \n\n\n\nTing Mobile – get a $25 credit on your first bill when you use this link.  Plans start as low as $10/month and you can bring your own phone (or in my case\, I just used an old phone.) For more details\, see my post regarding the Cellcom outage and my solutions to always stay connected.\n\n\n\nGabb Wireless – Code: 9203979786 (discount on your first order) Kids’ Phones and Watches with additional parental controls.  Are you thinking about getting your child a device?  Check these two resources.

We’ll take suggestions for our first check.  (We still have $50 to go before we’ll get our first check) \n\n\n\nIf you’d like to donate directly to our fundraisers instead of purchasing from our partners.  We can accept cash\, Square\, or Venmo. \n\n\n\nOne of the fundraisers is set up as an open-ended so we’ll be able to help several organizations for as long as there is interest in the products. \n\n\n\nThese are a few of my favorite products.  This is my “toolkit” for the Flu Season.  It also has some hints about getting started with essential oils. \n\n\n\nIf you are looking for the fundraising socks that we had available\, we do still have them\, but you’ll need to make an appointment. \n\n\n\nThese are a few other ways to support us.
