Love 2 Shop & Save

Busy busy busy!

2010-06-17T12:45:00.000-07:00

I'm sorry it's been so long since I have posted anything on here! Life on the road with 2 little ones, EBaying and more has kept me so busy!

I absolutely LOVE to shop and coupon and it's so much fun to post all the deals here. I hate to say it, but I just do not have the time to keep up with posting all the deals that I would like to! I know from couponing myself that you have to be able to read up on all the deals daily.

I have decided to start another blog, which will still have a lot of the features this one does, but just not coupon matchups and store deals. It's emphasis is more on earning money from home, free products, being able to test products for companies, etc. Since I will not have to keep up with weekly ads, it will be much more slow paced for me and easier to keep up with!

So I'm inviting all my followers and subscribers to check out the new blog and be sure to sign up as a follower/subscriber there! I'm planning a giveaway to do in a couple days, so don't miss it!

Go HERE to see my new blog! Thanks!

Went to Target today and spotted some great stuff on the clearance endcaps!

Target clearance prices vary from store to store but be sure to be on the lookout for these items and don't forget to bring along your coupons in case you spot a great deal!

Here's what I found today:

Nivea men's body wash, it was a bonus pack, so a regular sized bottle and a smaller bottle packaged together for $3.84. I bought 2 packages of these and used 2 of the $3 coupons from the 5/4 RP. So I paid $0.84 each!

I also found the Listerine mouthwash marked down to $1.98! I used a $1 coupon I had printed from coupons.com and paid only $0.98! There are several Listerine $1 coupons from recent inserts you may have on hand.

Review: Read and Share: The Jesus Series, Life & Miracles

2010-05-26T19:04:00.000-07:00

I recently received a copy of a DVD from the Read and Share Bible, The Jesus Series: Life & Miracles. I watched the DVD, along with my 2 children and we all enjoyed it! In fact, my children have watched it multiple times and still ask to watch it more!

The DVD begins with Jesus leaving Bethlehem with Mary & Joseph and covers his ministry here on earth, up until the time of his betrayal by Judas. The animation is great and the stories were easily understood by my children, ages 5 & 2. We have been teaching our children many of these stories already and the DVD really helped them to understand them even better! What I loved most about this DVD is that it follows the Biblical accounts of these events.

The length is just right for little ones, long enough to be interesting and short enough that it doesn't lose their attention. I would definitely recommend this DVD to any parent with small children. It's a great tool to reinforce Bible stories and helps children visualize what actually happened in those days!

If you're looking for a good, Bible-based DVD on the life of Jesus, I would purchase this DVD for your children!

I received this book free from Thomas Nelson Publishers as part of their BookSneeze.com book review bloggers program. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.

Here's a neat site to check out: Groupon.

Looks like they have something different daily. For example, Atlanta's groupon today is $45 worth of dining at Saskatoon for only $20. You can click to buy the coupon, but you only get charged if enough people buy that groupon. They have to have a certain number of people in order to get the deal.

Money Makers Monday: Cash Crate

2010-05-24T19:07:00.000-07:00

Welcome to another Money Makers Monday!

I've been sharing some of the paid surveys sites that I'm a member of. Here's a couple of tips to remember about surveys:

1. To maximize your earnings, it's best to join several survey sites

2. Never pay to join, all of the sites I use are free

3. Don't get discouraged! It takes a while to get started but the more surveys you do, the more you will get sent!

4. Don't worry if you don't qualify. This happens to everyone and there will be more invites! Survey companies are usually looking for very specific requirements for each survey. Somtimes you will meet those, sometimes you will not!

Surveys are a fun and easy way to earn a few extra dollars each month. Plus, you will often get a product to test and give your opinion on, and you always get to keep the product!

This weeks survey site I'm highlighting is:

Cash Crate

I'm fairly new to this one but have heard lots of good things about it. They have surveys you can do daily to earn small amount ($0.80 or so) and then they offers you can sign up for to earn more.

I personally do not like to do the sign up offers because I do not like giving out credit/debit card info only to cancel later. But if you enjoy these types of offers, they have some high paying ones on the site.

I plan to stick to just the surveys for now. Even though they're small amounts, it does add up after time and I'm more comfortable doing them. Every penny helps!!
Go HERE to check out cash crate and see if it's something you'd like to try!

Repair Pal Review

2010-05-21T19:35:00.000-07:00

Need a repair job on your vehicle? Want to know more about specific vehicles and the common problems that occur? Here's a neat site you can check out: Repair Pal.

For example, for those in the Houston area, you can see local repair shops and a map with their location. Each shop also has a user rating and comments. Check out an example here, at the Houston Auto Repair page.

Take a look at different cars with ratings, user reviews and more! Here's an example for an Acura Integra.

Maybe you just want to learn more about auto repair and what the terms used mean. Learn more about an oil change and tune up.

The site's easy to use and best of all, it's free!!

(this is my own opinion of this site; I may be compensated for review)

2010-05-20T19:17:00.000-07:00

This week at Target, there is a gift card deal going on with select Kashi products: buy 5 get a $5 Target gift card.

If you got the Vocalpoint Kashi coupons that were sent out a while back, then head to Target to take advantage of this great deal!

I receive the Vocalpoint coupons and was holding on to them to wait for a great deal and I'm glad I did! I had one coupon for a free box of Kashi heart to heart crackers or cereal and 3 coupons for $1.50 off. I also had a Kashi coupon from a recent free sample I requested, which was for $1 off a Kashi product.

The Heart to Heart crackers are included in the gift card deal and are on price cut for $2.84 at my Target store. I purchased four of them, plus a box of the TLC bars, at $2.79 for my fifth item.

Total was $14.15 for the 5 boxes.
After my vocalpoint coupons and $1 off coupon=$5.81!
Plus I earned a $5 gift card!

I always like to keep these gift cards and use them to "roll" on other gift card deals. So, I did have one with me today and used it to pay, making my cost for all 5 boxes $0.81!!

If you're not a member of Vocalpoint, go HERE to sign up! It's free to join and they send out wonderful coupons and samples, usually always for free products!

Money Makers Monday: Send Earnings

2010-05-18T04:13:00.000-07:00

(Sorry this post is late! I was traveling all day yesterday with my family and didn't get a chance to post this!)

Welcome to another Money Makers Monday!

I've been sharing some of the paid surveys sites that I'm a member of. Here's a couple of tips to remember about surveys:

1. To maximize your earnings, it's best to join several survey sites

2. Never pay to join, all of the sites I use are free

3. Don't get discouraged! It takes a while to get started but the more surveys you do, the more you will get sent!

4. Don't worry if you don't qualify. This happens to everyone and there will be more invites! Survey companies are usually looking for very specific requirements for each survey. Somtimes you will meet those, sometimes you will not!

Surveys are a fun and easy way to earn a few extra dollars each month. Plus, you will often get a product to test and give your opinion on, and you always get to keep the product!

This weeks survey site I'm highlighting is:

Send Earnings

I mentioned Inbox Dollars last week and this site is extremely similar.

This site is a little different from most survey sites because they offer more than just paid surveys. They offer paid emails and pay to shop, similar to Shop At Home or Ebates.

I enjoy the paid emails the most. You get $0.02 for each email that you click on. Just a warning here, they will be sending you a lot, so your inbox can get flooded quickly. I like them because it's so easy to just click and you're done! They also send survey inviations, and the email will let you know how much you're paid to complete the survey. Usually $0.50-$2.00 each. For me personally, they do not come near as often as the paid emails, which I get daily.

Once you have $30 in your account you can request a check.

So if you don't mind getting a lot of emails, just click on the send earnings image above to sign up. You do get a $5 bonus in your account just for signing up, getting you that much closer to your $30!

I did receive one nice offer from this company to join an on-line community for P&G products. For my participation there, I did earn a $10 overstock.com gift card!

Target: Nexcare bandages for $0.77

2010-05-11T11:17:00.000-07:00

Went to Target today to find some of the weekly deals but didn't have much luck! My paper didn't get the $5 Schick coupon, so I didn't want to do that deal. Then I forgot to print my coupons for the Kleenex hand towels!

But I did find these Strawberry Shortcake Nexcare bandages on price cut for $1.77. There's a $1 coupon HERE that I DID have with me, so I got these for $0.77!

My 2 year old daughter was with me, and just happened to find a "boo-boo" on her knee when she saw these! They are really cute and made with soft fabric so they feel really nice!

I've heard that some Targets have the Nexcare bandages in the travel section for $0.99 which you try this coupon on to get them for free, if your store will do that. My store didn't have any travel packs.

Once you have $30 in your account you can request a check. I did this a few months ago and the only problem I had with them is that they take a fee out of the check, mine was $27 and some change. They did send the check quickly and I figured $27 was pretty good for just clicking on emails which took about 1 or 2 minutes of my time daily. So if you don't mind getting a lot of emails, go HERE to sign up! You do get a $5 bonus in your account just for signing up, getting you that much closer to your $30!

By the way, once you reach the $30 mark and request your check, you do get more emails and survey opportunities.

Giveaway: Children's Claritin coupons

2010-04-29T19:11:00.000-07:00

Do you have a child with allergies? If so, then you know this time of year is when they flare up. My son struggles with allergies so much in the spring, he's finally able to get outside and play, help Dad mow the yard and then comes the runny nose, itchy eyes, sneezing, etc.

I was recently offered Claritin Children's chewables for my son to try. They're non-drowsy and last for 24 hours. He loved the chewable much better than liquid and told me how good it tasted. It really works great, especially during the night, when his allergies can keep himi from getting a good night's sleep.

If you have a child with allergies and would like to try Claritin Children's allergy products, I have eight coupons to give away! They are good for $3 on any children's non-drowsy Claritin (4 oz or 10 ct. or larger) Exp. 6/30/10

Here's how you can enter to win. You can get up to 5 entries in the giveaway! Eight winners will be chosen and then announced on Friday, May 14th. The first entry method is mandatory the other 4 are all optional bonus entries.

PLEASE be sure to leave your email address in your comments!!!! It is hard for me to contact you without it!! And also, please be sure to check your spam folder in case my emails go there!

Book Review: A Century Turns by William J. Bennett

2010-04-22T11:25:00.000-07:00

I just finished a really interesting book, A Century Turns, by William J. Bennett. If you enjoy history, this is a book you'll want to read!

In the book, A Century Turns, Bennett gives great coverage of significant events in America, starting with the election of President George H. Bush and ending with the election of President Barack Obama. Told from a conservative viewpoint, it's a refreshing history of what makes America great.

I really enjoyed this book, even though I don't normally read non-fiction. It gave me a greater understanding of events in recent history and what goes on behind the scenes in the political world. It's amazing when you think back to just a little over 20 years ago, how the world was so different! The author gives great highlights on the happenings surrounding the Presidential elections over the last century that really made it interesting for me. I would recommened this book to anyone wanting a refresher on the last 20 years in America. It's an easy, fun read.

So for those of you who enjoy history, check this one out, I think you'll really enjoy it!

I received this book free from Thomas Nelson Publishers as part of their BookSneeze.com book review bloggers program. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
