Do you have those moments where you are going about your day and all of a sudden you realize you are famished? Maybe you have found yourself getting cranky or tired or just out of it and you can’t quite figure out why… until you realize you are hungry? While I try to eat at regular intervals throughout the day, there are many days where I’m so busy that I will forget to eat a meal. The next thing I know, I’m cranky and usually super lethargic. I’m just not myself when I’m hungry!
I’ve tried to combat this problem by keeping snacks handy to help me enjoy life during those moments when I’m hungry! SNICKERS® has been the perfect snack!
SNICKERS® has three innovative bars that are perfect for giving that needed energy boost during moments of hunger. There are SNICKERS® Extreme, SNICKERS® Peanut Butter Squares, and SNICKERS® Almond. I purchased SNICKERS® Peanut Butter Squares and a SNICKERS® Almond bar at Walmart and easily found them in the checkout lane. My local Walmart had the SNICKERS® bars spread throughout the shelves (versus all together), so be sure to scan your checkout lane shelves good to find them!
When I purchase SNICKERS® bars, I don’t eat them right away. Instead, I save them for days when life is hectic and I am in need of a quick chocolate fix that has a boost of protein! I like to keep SNICKERS® Peanut Butter Squares in my purse because when I’m out running errands with my son, there is a very good chance that while he’s been fed and he has had plenty of snacks, I haven’t taken the time to eat. So I keep the squares in my purse for moments when I’m hungry.
I used to be a long distance runner. Everything changed when we became parents and I had a difficult time finding time (and energy) needed for me to get out there and run. But the past few months I’ve started getting into running again and I’m working my way back to being able to run half marathons and marathons. A lot of times I go running in local parks. And when I’m done running, I am famished. When you run long distance, you are depleting your body of nutrients – especially if you aren’t eating while you run (which I don’t do). So, once I’m done, I’m always super hungry. I like to have SNICKERS® Peanut Butter Squares handy to refuel and give me an energy boost.
Driving. We all have to do it. When you get hungry while driving, are you tempted to stop at fast food restaurants? I’m not. So when I’m hungry, typically I will continue driving and just get more and more cranky. (Just being honest!) When proactively on top of things, I will remember to bring SNICKERS® Peanut Butter Squares in the car with me so that I can have a square to snack on during moments of hunger!

Thanks for coming to Addicted to Saving! Here’s a little bit about me so you can know who’s behind all these posts!
My name is Liza and I began my money-saving journey in the Spring of 2009 as a way to stretch a limited household income. I had lost my job and my hubby was self-employed. I launched Addicted to Saving in November of 2009 and it has grown by leaps and bounds. Since then, my hubby and I have struggled with the ups and downs of two failed adoptions and are now LOVING being parents to our little man Asher who we brought home from Ethiopia in August of 2013. I feel incredibly blessed to be able to help you save money. My goal is that you will have FUN and become empowered to save more and more money each week..
