Heather B- Yes, a French Press! These are great and you can get different sizes. I have seen them on Amazon, at Target, or you can pay a little more and get them at Starbucks.

Coarsely ground coffee is preferred because it will help when you plunge the plunger down to not let the grounds escape. You would just hit the supermarket and do the coarse grind from the fresh whole beans or you can find a French Press that has a double filter and not worry as much about it. Mine has the filter plunger and then where I sip (because it is a travel mug) there is an additional mesh strainer so fewer grounds can escape. If it only has the plunger (not a thermal mug like mine) coarsely ground well help keep the grounds at the bottom.

I might have to do an article on a French Press

I LOVE your new video! I’ve never heard of a French Press. Is that right? You stated you needed coarsely ground coffee, can you not use store bought ground coffee? Just wondering. Thanks again for the great advice!

Congrats, your video looks great. I am ssurprised that it’s called Money Saving Moms, though, since there is already a Money sSving Moms on parents.com and of course a well known money saving mom without the s. Not a criticism, just an observation. It’s like putting a mom advice on walmart, know what I mean? Walmart mom advice or wWlMart moms advice…
Oh, and your pic looks great, too!

No, it doesn’t mean that. I am just posting tips for money saving, but am under no obligation to promote Walmart or their business practices.

I am hoping it will be a great way to expose our blog to people who don’t know about it and that I can help families who are struggling financially find some creative ways to save money.

No further association required

Congratulations on your video!

I hope this doesn’t mean you will be doing actual business with Walmart. Their business practices are well known as being shady and perhaps an association will put people/moms off. Just a thought.
