Saving Money with Zenni Optical

by | | 0 Comments

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Zenni Optical. All opinions are 100% mine. I will do anything to avoid paying full price.  It doesn't matter what I am buying, I rarely buy it the first place I find it and without some kind of research.  It's like second nature for me now.  I will wait for a sale, look for coupons and even check around at various stores to see where I can save even more.  Sometimes all that work pays off and I'm extremely proud when I score a GREAT deal.  And I usually tell everyone I know about it! (I'm sure my friends and family are tired of hearing about my scores!) My husband and I were just discussing the other day that I need to consider making an...

Back To School Shopping at TJ Maxx & A Giveaway ENDED

by | | 1 Comment

If school hasn't already started in your area then it will be soon.  My oldest starts Kindergarten in 2 weeks and while I'm excited for her to begin the adventure into the public school system (ours is good, thankfully!) I'm also a little sad because it just proves that she is growing up, very quickly! But it's happening so I must deal with it.  And that includes shopping for back to school items.  I remember heading to the mall in August when I was young with my parents and my brother to buy cloths for the new school year.  It's just what you do!  I was excited when I was contacted by a representative from TJ Maxx & Marshall's asking me if I'd like to do some back to school shopping...

BlogHer 10 Recap – Day 1

by | | 1 Comment

Last summer I began hearing buzz about BlogHer and wasn't quite sure what it was all about.  By the time it came around in August I learned a lot and I had wished I was there.  That was when I decided that I was going to attend BlogHer10 for sure this year.  Well I did... and now its over and I'm sad it went by so fast.  So now I'm planning for BlogHer11 which will be in San Diego in 2011, which is one of my favorite places in the entire world!! I was fortunate enough to have two great sponsors for my trip.  Lane Bryant gave me a gift card to buy an outfit, which I turned into a few outfits with my thrifty shopping and Cook's Ham sponsored my entire trip!  I'm very grateful to both of...

CafeMom… Where Mom’s meet Mom’s

by | | 0 Comments

I know that sounds corny.. where Mom's meet Mom's but it's true!  As a mom, I value my other mom friends.  They can be a very helpful, especially when you are a first time mom.  They just understand everything so much better than husbands do!  If you live in an area where you don't know a lot of people like me, or don't have children in school yet where you can meet other moms, like me then an online forum is a great place to meet other mom's.  You don't even need to live near them!  Just to have someone to talk to when needed is perfect! CafeMom is a place where you can meet so many other moms who are looking for friends too.  It's FREE to join too!  Which is the best part.  I love...

Morton Salt Coupon & A Key Lime Mockarita

by | | 0 Comments

It's summertime and  my husband and I enjoy entertaining.  We don't do it as much as we did when we were younger and had no kids so usually it's just him and I.   When it's warm outside there's nothing better than a really yummy cold drink but with two kids around, drinking an alcoholic beverage isn't the thing we can do all day long!  That is when a non-alcholic ice cold beverage comes in handy! Enter the Key Lime Mockarita!!  One of my husbands favorite desserts is Key Lime Pie so we knew we'd love this drink.  We grabbed some Morton® Coarse Kosher Salt to top the rim of this yummy drink.  The only thing we had to buy was some Key Lime Juice, which we didn't have and now that we do, I...
