Quick and Easy Valentine Freebie

Keattikorn / FreeDigitalPhotos.net

Recently I wrote about how love songs can really help set the tone and help get you in the mood.

So, I couldn’t pass up a great opportunity to send him a couple of inspirational songs to show him I was thinking about him. It was very easy to do and you can too!

Amazon is offering a $2 credit when you gift someone a song. The code is VDAYMP3S and is valid until 2/14.  

What I love about it is you can send a personal love note with the song.

It’s quick, it’s easy, and its FREE!

What songs will you send?

Cutting corners whereever I can!

So I made a phone call to Cox cable/internet/phone to see what they can do. I am afraid to give up our DVR (I just love that thing!) but I figured there HAS to be somewhere in that bill where I can cut corners and find some $$. After much persistance they found that I don't even use their long distance enough to compensate for the Unlimited Long Distance and further, they charge a whopping $5 just for voicemail. Hey, isn't that what answering machines are for anyway? So I was able to lower my bill by $11.08 per month. Let's see, if I multiply that by 12, I've managed to get almost $133 MORE for next year! Hey, those pennies add up and well... now that's got me all pumped up to find myself some more money!

Woo HOO!

Swagbucks

I learned about Swagbucks from other coupon blogs so I thought I might give it a try. I think the most inspirational posting about swagbucks is when Trina from http://fabulouslyfrugalicious.blogspot.com/ talked about getting this fabulous purse for free using swagbucks she earned. Mama wants herself a new purse too, so of course I had to give it a try too!

So here is the deal, you can sign up for swagbucks by clicking the above link (you and I will BOTH receive swagbucks for doing so!), then do your normal "google" searches by using the swagbucks toolbar or their homepage...it's powered by google anyway, so it's worth a try! You will need only 45 swagbucks for a $10 Amazon GC or even 50 Swagbucks for a $10 starbucks GC. So far I've earned 6 swagbucks in a couple days, so let's see how this goes!

Happy searching (and getting paid to do so anyway)!

Obsession

I am so amazed... couponing quickly becomes an obsession when I get down to it! This week Bashas is having Super doubles in which $1.00 coupons are doubled to $2.00. I did a Bashas run and managed to get a cartful... yes a cartful full of groceries for $40! Amazing. More on that later.

However what I really am obsessed about now are these hot, hot, hot coupons from Old Navy Weekly. As of today, Sunday there will be a coupon hunt in which you can snag a $75 off a $100 purchase. I've been up all night since midnight refreshing this page! We will be heading off to church soon, but I know I'll be thinking about that coupon!

If you don't get the $75 off $100, check it out anyway. There some other great coupons to be snagged like a $10 off $50, etc!

Kraft Coupons, Lost Season Finale, and More!

• The blog world is buzzing about these fantastic Kraft Coupons. I wanted to share an awesome website in which it tells you what to do with these coupons. Check out DealSeekingmom.com that helps with all the smoking deals you can get at Walmart and/or Target with these coupons. I can't wait to head over to Walmart and get these fantastic deals!
• The season finale of Lost just blew my mind last night. I can't wait to have a Lost Marathon this summer and watch season 1-season 5. I love those "aha" moments when rewatching those episodes. I must have watched each epi more than 5 times each! I hate the torture though of waiting until next February to start Season 6... even worse, the fact that Season 6 is the final season of the show KILLS me!
• My deep phone conversation with my long-time girlfriend Julie was mind blowing. I am so thankful that my Lord will put such awesome people in my life. Julie, if you are reading this... THANK YOU! You gave me such an amazing outlook on life. Since our convo, I've changed the way I have been viewing things lately and have spent more time praying about my the way I've been acting lately. You are such a blessing and I am eternally grateful to have someone who will always be honest, even brutally honest, with me to put me in check when I need it!

Movie Days on Wednesdays!

AMC has Theatres Kids Summer Movie Camp Wednesdays at 10:00 AM from June 17th-August 5thAdmission is $1.00, and a kids size drink, popcorn, and snack is $3.00.

All proceeds go to charity.

I'll be making it a fun Wednesday outing with the boys and I'll be sure to bring towels and shorts so the boys can splash around at the Westgate Center on Wednesdays!

It's going to be fun!

All You Magazine

No solid, experienced, and crazy couponer would not know about the All You Magazine offered at Walmart. The mag is filled with amazing coupons each month and includes great recipes and tips. I LOVE any opportunity to flip through a magazine (a rare moment of course in the Orozco Household) but when I came across this deal, I couldn' resist jumping on it! You can get the All You Magazine for $2 bucks each at Walmart, or snag a year's subscription for only $10 with free shipping through Amazon until 5/31. FYI, the last magazine had a coupon for a free mascara!

CVS deal today

I did it! My first CVS Deal in ages. I printed a total of 6 coupons and walked away with $20 worth of hair supplies for a total of 1.44 tax. I LOVED it! I love the thrill of shopping smoking deals and getting started with my stockpile stash!

woohooo!
