Cheapest Prices of the Summer! 4th of July THRIVE Sale

This sale has ended, but better ones are on the way...click here to view the current Deals and Promotions and newly released products.  To automatically be notified of new sales, you can sign up for the blog email or email me directly at TiffsTreasures (at) gmail (dot) com to receive a discount password onto the Shelf Reliance site.



For the 30 Days of Faves my final favorite is the sales.  Maybe that's cheating...but I love them.  They do a special sale for their Q Club Members each month, typically they have a large special seasonal sale, and sometimes they have sales on specific packages that are just incredible.  For the next 5 days, it is the best sale of the summer for the 4th of July THRIVE Sale.  If you like the sales you see on this page, then you will really like it when go to the product.  It will take an additional discount off of the product because you will be on my consultant website rather than the general website.






My favorite product being showcased on this sale are the Instant Beans.  I love these because they've already been presoaked and partially cooked to where they only take 15 minutes to cook in your favorite dish.  That means even if you haven't planned a dinner, you can add these, a couple veggies and meats and you have yourself a homemade stew in minutes. They are WONDERFUL!  They can still be used in a crockpot, cook some up for a side dish, make some to go with taco salad, bean burritos....so good.


Other exciting parts of the sale:


Have you been interested in becoming a consultant? The packages are now being offered at the cheapest price I've ever seen for the company.  The basic package is going for only $159 now through July 5th! If you go to the sale landing page, it will show you the package discounts of up to 20%.

The Kitchen Mill and Whole Wheat Bread that you just can't get enough of? You Bet!


Day 7- of the 30 Days of Faves



This baby is the Kitchen Mill Wheat Grinder.  I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it!  I use it once a month and grind up a bunch of wheat at once, then freeze the wheat in freezer bags to keep those healthy oils fresh.  For anyone who loves fresh, healthy, straight from the source food, this is a dream.  You simply pour wheat in at the top, flip the switch to how fine you want the flour and let it work its magic.  There are a lot of grinders out there that you have to clean a certain way because of the natural oils in wheat corrode the parts, but not so with this one.  If you are new to the idea of wheat flour, you might be surprised to know that white flour comes from the same grain, it is just wheat flour stripped of all of the healthy nutrients so it is a cheaper alternative for companies for use in their products.  To learn more about the differences between white and wheat flour you can visit this site.

I will be doing some video clips for YouTube over the next few days for recipes that I use because I have this awesome tool.  I love that I was able to earn it for half price, and you can too-just ask how!  If you are someone who has tons of wheat for food storage without a clue of how to use them, stay tuned and I will help you learn how.  We'll start with this recipe for today!

Below is my favorite 100% Whole Wheat Bread recipe that I make in my bread machine a couple times each week.  This is perfect for all of you out there who feel like you don't know how to make bread or don't think you have the time, but would love bread with out all of the yucky preservatives.  This came from my Breadman Recipe Manual.

100% Whole Wheat Bread 1 Lb Loaf
1 Egg, room temperature plus enough water to equal  3/4 c
2 T Oil
2 TSugar
1 t Salt
2 1/4 c Whole Wheat Flour
1 T Vital Wheat Gluten
1 1/2 t Active Dry Yeast
or 1 t Bread Machine/Quick Rise Yeast

100% Whole Wheat Bread 1.5 Lb Loaf
1 Egg, room temperature plus enough water to equal  1 c
3 T Oil
3 T Sugar
1 1/2 t Salt
3 Whole Wheat Flour
1 1/2 T Vital Wheat Gluten
2 t Active Dry Yeast
or 1 1/4 Bread Machine/Quick Rise Yeast

100% Whole Wheat Bread 2 Lb Loaf
1 Egg, room temperature plus enough water to equal  1 1/3 c
1/4 c Oil
1/4 c Sugar
2 t Salt
4 c Whole Wheat Flour
2 T Vital Wheat Gluten
1 1/2 t Active Dry Yeast
or Bread Machine/Quick Rise Yeast



Note: I do the 2 lb loaf and I also add 1 t of dough enhancer.  Many people say that wheat bread turns out dense for them.  Gluten and dough enhancer are the magic that make your bread fluffy and moist.  To learn more about why these are important you can go to this independent site.




Not ready to make the plunge for an electric wheat grinder or are you looking for one that you can use in case there was an emergency and you had 0 electricity....here's an alternative, the Grain Mill Wheat Grinder.  Please note that anyone who has used a manual wheat grinder can attest to the fact that they are a lot more work.

Did I say Freeze-Dried Yogurt? Oh yes I did.


Day 6 of the 30 Days of Faves
Shelf Reliance announced three amazing products in February which have been a hit at every party since;  freeze-dried ice cream, FD yogurt and instant beans.  For moms who were used to paying $3 for a couple pinch fulls of yogurt made by a baby company, this was quite an exciting find!  The funny thing is, this is no longer a babies-only treat as kids and adults can agree that these FD Yogurt Bites are a little piece of Heaven.  My two personal favorites are the vanilla and pomegranate.  Eat them straight out of the can or throw a handful into some homemade trail mix to enjoy quite the delicious treat.  Below is a simple recipe for a homemade trail mix that my family loves (as well as the mommy groups to which I bring the bag!)  I have a grandma who ordered them saying excitedly, "This is a size that my little grand daughter can actual eat with out choking since they just melt in your mouth.


Yogurt Infused Trail Mix


2 c Vanilla Yogurt Bites 
1 c Whole Almonds
1/2 c Craisins
1 c of FD Fruit of choice (I use Pineapple)


Throw ingredients in a Ziplock bag for a great treat that will gone as soon as it is spotted!


You can try any of the 6 delicious flavors in which these treats come including Vanilla, Strawberry, Pomegranite, Orange, Passionfruit, and Blueberry.  For more information about this or any other product, you can visit my store by clicking here for the best discounts available. Thanks!

Huge Shipping Discount for Shelf Reliance - No Coupon Necessary on 1 Year Supply Packages

This sale has ended, but better ones are on the way...click here to view the Current Sales and newly released products.  To be notified right away when there are sales,  you can join my free email list or email me at TiffsTreasures@gmail.com to get information on unadvertised deals.

Day 3-Convenient Packages  


For the 30 Days of Faves I'd have to say that I love all of the convenient package combos Shelf Reliance offers.  There are many companies that offer one set package and what you get is what you get.  Shelf reliance offers packages with Dehydrated foods, and Freeze-Dried Foods.  For Dairy Free or Meat Free.  It is very easy for someone who is totally knew to the idea of building a "Home Store" to come and see what they'd want.  All they'd need to do was figure out how many people they would need to feed, how basic or extravagant they'd want to get, and decide if there were packages they'd want more due to the types of food.  The packages are very clear about exactly how many calories are in there per person so you are not left wondering, will I have enough food?  What a simple way to prepare your family for the storms ahead without having to suffer from the guilt of not having your family prepared.


For more information on the reasons for food storage and 72 hour kits please visit Lessons from Japan.  I will be sure to give you details on the differences between Freeze Dried and Dehydrated foods tomorrow!


*********************************************************************************


Shelf Reliance is going to be changing their shipping charges beginning June 8th.  What does this mean for you?  If you were going to be buying a 1 year supply of food for a family of any size, a large 72 hour kit package, tents or shelving units, you will want to buy by clicking here before June 8th to save LOTS of money.


Currently the rate to ship anything over $190 is only 15.99, but starting June 8th, due to rising gas prices, they will be changing their costs to 5% of the package total.  For example if you were going to buy a Standard 1 Year Supply of FD and Dehydrated Food, for the next week it will cost you $15.99 to ship, after June 8th it will be around $130.  That is a savings of around $114 just for ordering in the next week.


I know not everyone needs a year supply package that is this big, but I will just use this as an example:
This is the 1 Year Deluxe Food Storage Package - Family of Five package which retails for $7,657.49.  You can buy it through the website for 20% off bringing it do just about $6,000.  I can sweeten the deal in 3 more ways,
1) Order BEFORE June 8th and you will only pay 15.99 to ship it to anywhere in the 48 contiguous states.
2) I will send you a case of ANY food of your choice after you email me and tell me what it is you'd like. Whether you are carnivores and want more meat, need the simplicity of just add water meals and would like entrees, can't get enough of the freeze-dried pineapple or your kids eat a lot of cheese or yogurt....your wish is my command!
3) If you can find at least one other person who'd like to place an order with you (it doesn't have to be this big)  I will set up a party for you so you can earn lots of free and half off product.


Why am I offering this stellar deal? Come June 8th it will cost someone $300 to ship this package.  I know that Daily Bread and many other BIG year suppliers are starting to up their shipping with the rising gas prices, but I'm hoping to get people prepared as soon as possible for as cheap as possible.


So lets review....
You get almost $8,000 (7700 from the 1 year supply and around 275 from the case of your choice) worth of food plus a possibility to earn 500 in half off retail product and 600 in free retail product for the price of about $6000 if you order before June 8th.  If you order after June 8th, the package will still be on sale through my website but you will no longer get the case of free food and shipping will now cost $300 rather than 15.99.  Technically I just gave you another 284 ($) deal sweeteners!
Thinking about ordering a different year supply package?  Email me and I'll let you know what I'd be able to offer you.


I am appreciative that Shelf Reliance shipping prices are still more competitive than most direct sales companies, just passing the message on!
