Luckily, CVS/pharmacy Photo Center is rolling out a brand new reward for customers: as of January 31 of this year, any customer that buys $20 worth of 4x6, 5x7 or 8x10 prints will earn a free 8x10 enlargement or photo collage.

Today is Mega Swagbucks Day, did you know that?  Well just in case you didn't, I'm going to fill you in on this fun day. On Mega Swagbucks day, they award Swagbucks in increments of 10, 20, 50 and 100!!! Wouldn't that be nice to win 100 Swagbucks in one search. I was excited the other day when I won 3 Swagbucks but I'd be super excited if I won 100 or even 50. Remember 45 Swagbucks gets you a $5 Amazon Gift Card so 100 Swagbucks would get you a $10 Amazon Gift Card. You could earn that in 1 search. So make sure when you surf the web today and instead of using your bookmarks, search through Swagbucks and win yourself some Mega Swagbucks. Happy Surfing!!

Kidz Bop 17 Review & Giveaway ENDED

We love music in my house and since my youngest started pre-school this month, she's picked up on every single song they sing at school and she only goes for 2 days each week!  I love hearing them both sing. Last year we had the change to review Kidz Bop 15 and it's one of their favorite CD's to listen to in the car.  Actually it's one of my favorites too!  Yes I'll admit it, I like Kidz Bop but it's all of today's hit music, cleaned up if it needs to be, and my kids like the music too!  It's a win / win situation. I was very excited when I was asked if I'd like to review Kidz Bop 17. But two little girls were even more excited!  They couldn't wait for it to arrive and the day it did they...
