Giveaway 2.0

Be sure to check out Giveaway 1.0 for Mineral Elements by Eden, ending Sunday, May 17.

The next giveaway is for coupons.  For those of you who do not know, I am a coupon fanatic, so usually I wouldn’t be giving these away.  However, I found several copies of coupons that I won’t use, so I’m offering them up to the first commenters on this post who are interested.

The first five people to comment with their favorite breakfast food will receive a coupon for a FREE box of Kashi GoLean Waffles from the frozen section.  You can choose any flavor you like, and Kashi waffles are absolutely delicious.  Please include a valid email address so I can email you for your mailing address.

The next four people who comment with their favorite breakfast food will receive a $1.00 OFF coupon for Kellogg’s Frosted Mini-Wheats.  These are not coupons that you will see in the newspaper, so take advantage of this! Please include a valid email address so I can email you for your mailing address.

In both cases, I need your email address to get your contact information.  I will mail these coupons at no charge to you, because this is a giveaway!

Good luck to all who enter!

All Over the Place

My post is going to be all over the place  – sorry about that.  I’m going a little crazy because a) I don’t know what to do with myself without having classes/work to do and b) it’s been raining ALL day so I feel like I’m running a doggy day care!

First off, look at what I just bought from Victoria Secret:

Victoria Secret order

The total on that order says I was supposed to pay $51.25, but I only paid $30.27.  Not only did I get $20 in discounts, I got those slippers for FREE and I’ll get double rewards through Ebates.  Sweet!

WW and the Shrinking Jeans challenge is going well.  I’ve eaten well today.  So far, I’ve had:

  • DanActive Immunity drink
  • Scrambled eggs with salt, pepper, and chives (1 whole egg, 2 egg whites)
  • 1 apple
  • 2 slices whole wheat toast with a tiny spread of cream cheese
  • 1 cup of milk
  • 1 cup of tea that is BOGO at Publix – it’s something like Sugar Cookie Sleigh Ride – SO GOOD!
  • Stouffer’s Mac n’ Cheese

For the rest of the day I’m going to be drinking a lot of water.  I also need to hop on the elliptical because we’ve got a party to go to tonight and I know I’ll be drinking more wine than usual.

I am so obsessed with Christmas/Christmas music.  The Christmas Wreath Yankee Candle has been burning almost nonstop since we bought it last weekend and I have been listening to Christmas music literally ALL week.

Have I blogged about my idea for term life insurance lately?  It’s something I’ve been thinking a lot about because I want Tom and my family to be prepared in the event that something happens to me.  It’s not the happiest thing to think about this time of year, but what would happen if suddenly I wasn’t around?  I want to be sure everything will be taken care of.

I made a list yesterday of the law schools I will be applying to and their associated application fees.  WOW!  I’m going to be spending a lot.  It’s so worth it to me though.

Off to work on laundry, do some exercising and make sure the dogs don’t tear up the living room!

Ebates Savings

I just got a really good deal on Ebates.com.  I got a sweater from Victoria Secret for $13.30 (on sale $19.00, but used the GET30 code for 30% off) and a free fragrance set (using the SCENT08 code).  I also got 4% back on the total amount I spent because of the deal going on at Ebates right now.

I’m not sure if a lot of you know about Ebates.com, but I’d recommend signing up for it before the holidays especially if you plan on doing any of your shopping online.

You can sign up for Ebates and then go to Victoria Secret’s website from the Ebates web site and do all your shopping.  If you sign up through the link I provided, you’ll get $5 when you make your first purchase!  It certainly helps when you’re trying to save money.

I will continue to post anything I find that will help you save money on your holiday shopping.
