Vons/Albertsons: FREE Lay's Kettle Cooked Chips (YMMV)
A reader, Vintage, says the following:
Check your Fetch: I have 2,000 points ($2.00) on as bag of Lay's Kettle chips, and on sale at Vons this week with a digital $1.99 coupon = free!
I don't have the offer but it was probably because we bought the chips almost immediately when the offer popped up in June because we love a good potato chip around here!🤣
Thanks, Vintage!

Take a screenshot of your Befrugal offers
This is for my bakers who make pies and cobblers from scratch.
On Monday, romyysaves posted a Crisco money maker and almost always, I check the comment section to see what people are saying...and the people were saying that they bought what was in the picture, the Crisco Vegetable Shortening Sticks 6.7oz, and their receipt was getting rejected immediately by Befrugal. I decided to try the deal myself and between my submitting my receipt and the 72 hour wait time, they had reduced the offer from $14.04 to $10.54. I did go back to them and request that they honor the $14.04 and I included a screenshot of the original offer. It's my first time contacting them so I feel they will honor the original offer. Befrugal has removed the Crisco offer...at least for me but you can do the Crisco on Swagbucks! Per usual, I did submit my receipt to CO51 first and after it was approved (it took like a half day to approve my receipt) and then I submitted to Befrugal.
Buy 4 Crisco Vegetable Shortening Sticks 6.7oz $12.96
Submit for (4) $1.60 CO515 = $6.40
Submit for (2) $4/2 Swagbucks = $8
Final Price: FREE + $1.44 Money Maker!!!!

Sprouts: FREE+MM Pretty Tasty Collagen Tea
If you have both Pretty Tasty Collagen Tea offers - Social Nature and Aisle, submit your Sprouts receipt to each and it's a $3.50 Money Maker! The Social Nature offer was calling it "Pretty Tasty Zero Sugar Collagen Tea" and so I wasn't sure if it was a new product or what but I finally had a chance to stop by Sprouts and I bought the Pretty Tasty in Peach and submitted my receipt for both offers and both were approved for the $3.50 each making a Money Maker!!! When we got them for free, last year, the drinks are pretty tasty...I would recommend them.
The Spammers are Back!
Typically, the deals are slower during the summertime because people are enjoying life with their family, as the kids are out of school or take an extra long weekend to go to Las Vegas so it didn't surprise me when I didn't see any comments under my posts. I just thought it's summertime and people are out here living their life!🤣
Yesterday morning, I noticed that I had like a notice in Blogger and when I clicked on the notice, it stated that I had an Awaiting Comment Approval. I clicked on the notice and it was a furniture spammer, the spammer had been waiting 2 or 3 weeks but Monday was the first time, I'd gotten the notice. As soon as, click "Spammer" and it was deleted...all my reader comments popped up!🤣
It's a Blogger software issue and I don't monetize the blog which means Blogger is letting use their platform for free, it very little that I can do about software issues.
When I'm working in desktop mode which 99% of the time when I go to the blog, I'm desktop mode and it takes Blogger forever to populate the comments and if I visit the homepage, I will look at the homepage and maybe the previous page but I don't have it in me to go back a week to see if I comments. You can see comments on your Smartphone but you have open each post to see if there are comments.
If I win lotto or some kind of big money like a settlement or a long lost relative leave me a big chunk of money in an inheritance, I would most definitely hire someone to build me a website.
So, that's the story what happened with the comments.

Low Carb Chicken Enchiladas Crockpot Meal
shred-happens on YouTube created this video for the Low Carb Chicken Enchiladas Crockpot Recipe. The ingredient list and instructions are below:
Low Carb Chicken Enchiladas Crockpot Meal
56g protein, 13g net carbs, 480 calories a serving!
Ingredients:
3 chicken breasts
8 oz enchilada sauce
2 tbsp tomato paste
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 bell pepper, diced
1/2 large onion, diced
2–3 garlic cloves (or 1tsp garlic powder)
1/2 block cream cheese (4 oz)
1–1.5 cups shredded cheese (Mexican blend or cheddar)
1 8oz box @kaizenfoodco high protein low carb pasta or any pasta you like, cooked for half the time on packaging
Spices:
1 tsp cumin, 1 tsp chili powder, 1 tsp smoked paprika, 1/2 tsp oregano, salt & pepper Optional: pinch cayenne or chipotle powder
Optional toppings:
Juice of 1/2 lime 2–3
tbsp sour cream,
Greek yogurt
Cilantro,
scallions,
and/or or jalapeño
Hot sauce
Here is how I made it (makes 5 servings)
1️⃣ Add the raw chicken, enchilada sauce, tomato paste, chicken broth, diced bell pepper, onion, garlic, and all spices to a slow cooker, then mix gently to combine.
2️⃣ Cover and cook on low for 4–5 hours or high for about 3 hours, until the chicken is fully cooked and easy to shred.
3️⃣ Shred the chicken directly in the slow cooker using two forks until it’s fully pulled apart.
4️⃣ Add the half block of cream cheese and stir until completely melted and incorporated into the sauce.
5️⃣ Stir in the shredded cheese and let it melt.
6️⃣ Boil the Kaizen pasta ( I used Lumache) for 3 minutes and gently fold everything together, adding a splash of broth if needed to loosen the sauce.
7️⃣ Plate it up, add your optional toppings, and enjoy!
