So if he is coming to bug me anyway, I might as well get a freebie (well cheapie) out of it!

I grew up with Schwan's and I remember the drivers were always a little persistent, but they seemed to listen when you told them you were on a strict budget but would welcome any deals/coupons to buy in the future. I live in another town now, so I wonder what this delivery driver will be like! Those orange dream bars were heaven in the summer when I was growing up!! We also ordered the pizza flavored egg rolls, which were a family favorite! I just ordered the French Baguette bread and used the $5 off deal…… 3 loaves for $1.61 (dollar extra for delivery fee) !!

(Don't expect Haagen Daas, I'm used to diet food so these are great!) They end up being ZERO points because of the fiber in them (ugg, I know, but honestly they are good tasting!) They are shaped like the old Jello frozen pops were back in the 80's (am I THAT old?) that we used to get as kids... And did I mention they are CHOCOLATE? Go to Ice Cream, then "Bars and Sticks", then "Sticks", then you'll see "Trim Creations fudge sticks". $9.99 for 24 (which I guess isn't all that bad for a diet product) or here is the link: <a href="http://www.schwans.com/products/productDetail.aspx?id=53019&c1=10236&c2=9268" rel="nofollow">http://www.schwans.com/products/productDetail.aspx?id=53019&c1=10236&c2=9268</a> Again, Weight Watcher people - ZERO POINTS EACH (only if you eat one - if you eat more than one at a time, it might be a point, you'll have to check) Best kept secret among WW people! Sugar and fat free, too. 99% positive reviews. Ordering mine right now for $5 off! Woo hoo!

But they do charge $1 for delivery. I don't think you can stop them from coming to your home. My mother and I are both Schwan's customers and we have repeatedly told the different drivers that we would order onlline of we needed anything and they still come by every 2 weeks. Now, they deliver to my office, so it's not as big of an inconvenience. I have never ordered anything from Schwan's that wasn't absolutely delicious.

Once I asked the schwan man to come back in about 2 months and he did. So it worked out. I don't always order anything and he gives me a sticker to put on my calendar to remind me when he comes back. Although lately I don't buy too much from him because were paying off debts. Food is excellent though!! We order the fish usually because that is the only kind my husband will eat(Breaded Blue Hake). Bomb pops are around $5 and that is my husbands favorite rather than getting them from the icecream truck randomly.

Our Schwans guy just came today and I didn't need anything. I never thought to ask him to only come by once a month--great idea. We love their chicken nuggets, curly fries, regular fries, and tater tots. Their vegetables are also good. We love their ice cream, but it's so expensive we hardly buy it. What we do buy from them lasts a long time, so it doesn't seem like such a hardship when we place an order. I'll be curious to hear what you think!!

I have several favs we eat as treats. (less expensive than a dinner out but almost easier) Also they have a 100% satisfaction guarantee. Love it or get a refund even if you eat some of it. They come every 2 weeks on a set day. My driver has never tried to "up-sell" me and always is respectful. If I am going to be gone I just tell him and he skips me that week. Waaaaay less pushy than all the "special offers" that usually come with internet freebies. Ice cream is amazing and their frozen novelties are far too good to share with the kids. Hubs and I hide them in the freezer. :) I would recommend them to anybody. Pricey compared to sales+coupons but much higher quality food, especially the frozen veggies and fruit.
