How To Train Your Dragon – out now on DVD/Blu-ray
Posted by Life on the Scene in Coupons/Freebies, DVD/Blu-Ray Review on October 15, 2010

Dreamworks How To Train Your Dragon is out today on DVD/Blu-ray.
This movie is the perfect mixture of adventure, comedy and friendship that leaves you wanting your own dragon by the end of the movie.
Hiccup (voice by Jay Baruchel) is the skinny, inquisitive boy who constantly fails at all attempts to be a proper Viking. His father, chief Stoick the Vast (Gerard Butler), has pretty much given up on his teenage son and apprenticed him to blacksmith Gobber (Craig Ferguson). Worse, Hiccup knows the village loser hasn’t a chance of impressing Astrid (America Ferrera), the girl of his dreams and a formidable dragon fighter in her own right. When one of Hiccup’s inventions actually works, he hasn’t the heart to kill the young dragon he’s brought down. He names it Toothless and befriends it, although he’s been taught to fear and loathe dragons. Hiccup uses his newly found knowledge to help his village fend off a dragon attack and change the minds of some stalwart old Vikings.
This movie is rated PG: suitable for ages 8 and older, violence, some intense action and scary dragons so preview and/or discuss it with younger children before allowing them to view it.
Vons/Safeway have a great deal going on now for the DVD. They have the How To Train Your Dragon DVD plus one Izze Fortified Beverage 4-pack, any flavor + one Orville Redenbacher’s Gourmet Popping Corn (2, 3 or 4 pack, select varieties) + two Kraft Macaroni + Cheese Dinners, any 5.5 oz “fun” shapes. All for $16.99 with Safeway/Vons card! I haven’t checked Albertsons yet but they typically offer these DVD deals as well.
Valid 10/15/10 – 10/31/10 on single DVD only (not Blu-ray).
Best Buy, Target and Wal-Mart always have great sales the first week of a DVD/Blu-ray release as well but the best deal by far is the grocery store deal that includes free snacks with your movie.
It’s going to be Dragon movie night at our house for sure tonight! This is one kids movie you definitely want in your collection for all to enjoy for many years to come.

Linkin Park Premieres New Video Waiting For The End on MTV
Posted by Life on the Scene in Music, Music Review on October 8, 2010
by Cindy Robinson (@Cindy7609)
Chester Bennington of Linkin Park
The second single from Linkin Park‘s new album, A Thousand Suns is Waiting for the End. The video is out today on MTV.com.
A Thousand Suns evokes the feel of an apocalyptic world, full of dark emotion and melancholy. As a long time fan of Linkin Park, this one has been a challenge for me. The vocals by Chester Bennington and Mike Shinoda are strong, the musicianship excellent on an album with an overall feeling of despair. Reviews across the board have been mixed, some calling it their best work yet while others are left wondering what the band has actually been working on for the last two years.
For this reviewer, I will classify this one as a grower – a new piece of music I add into the mix, encouraging myself to give it a few listens and let it grow on me. I’m curious to see how this album translates into a live show. The new songs are blending well into rock radio though, and generating a lot of talk.
A Thousand Suns is out now on iTunes. Watch Link Park’s site for news on tour information.

New Printable Coupons for Idahoan Potatoes and Ronzoni Pasta

By Cindy Robinson 10/7/10
There are two coupons available for Idahoan Potatoes! If you head over to Facebook and “like” Idahoan Potatoes, you can find a high value $1.00 off printable coupon on their coupon tab. Purchase at stores like Wal-Mart or Target, you will likely get this item for free or very close to it!
The second coupon, .75¢ off three pouches, can be found on their website. While this one isn’t the best deal out there, it can be helpful when stocking up during a sale!
I’m not a huge fan of instant potatoes myself, but I have found the flavored varieties to be a great dry goods staple to have on hand. I enjoy mixing up recipes and trying to new things. Often when I make mashed potatoes, I will add a small amount of a flavored instant potato mix like Idahoans’ Roasted Garlic which adds a nice hint of flavor without being overwhelming (and the kids like it too).
Ronzoni Pasta also has a Facebook coupon available when you “like” them here. It’s $1.00 off of any box of their Healthy Harvest line. Again, finding a good grocery store sale or stopping by Wal-Mart or Target to pick up this pasta will give you a great deal or possibly free pasta! Please let us know if you find a great sale on Ronzoni.
Ronzoni Pasta also has two different coupons available via their website here, $1.00 off two boxes.

Remember to hit the back button when you print and you can usually get two coupons. What deals have you found this week?
