So starting this week there is a new Member's Kit available. You might wonder if you need one? I picked up mine earlier this week. I think there are lot of great enhancements in this new kit.
Here is what is included:
- Points Plus Calculator
- Eat Out Guide - includes much more detailed guides for over 75 restaurants
- Shop Guide - shopping guid and includes 7500 general and branded items
- What to Eat Now - cook book featuring 150 recipes
- Tracker - its a bit bigger and has a lot of new features to help you track
- Tape Measure - track those measurements - remember there is more to success than the scale
- Measuring Cups - 4 handy measuring cups - that "pop up" and "flatten up" - these things are amazing
- Stickers to label foods in your pantry
All held together in a handy new case.
This week the package is on sale for $ 31.50
Those of you in the past might remember that these won't be around for long and not at this price.
I highly recommend this kit!

Jackson, Mississippi
We are in Jackson, Mississippi!
Jackson is the capital of the U.S. state of Mississippi. Located south of the Yazoo River, it is considered to be the southern border of the Mississippi Delta.[3] Jackson is most populous city in the state, and is one of two county seats of Hinds County, with the town of Raymond being the other.
The population of the city declined from 184,256 at the 2000 census to 173,514 at the 2010 census. The 2010 census ascribed a population of 539,057 to the five-county Jackson metropolitan area.[4]
The current slogan for the city is "Jackson, Mississippi: City with Soul."[5] Jackson is ranked 3rd out of America's 100 largest metro areas for the best "Bang For Your Buck" city according to Forbes magazine.[6] The study measured overall affordability, housing rates, and more. The city is named after Andrew Jackson, who was a general at the time of the naming but later became president of the United States. The city is the anchor of the Metro area.
USS Jackson (LCS-6) will be the first ship of the United States Navy to be named in honor of the city.[7]
