The Little Things Add up.

Do you remember in January of 2009 when I decided to track how much I made by completing surveys? Well apparently the little things DO ADD UP!

As of N0vember my total earned in gift card and cash was 1626.73. Not bad for just starting out if I say so myself!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I have decided I need a theme or catch for my blog. So any ideas would be appreciated. The one thing that I may consider is incorporating the fact we eat extremely healthy but still save money. Infact I have lost close to 40lbs since I began this blog.

It is GiveAway Time!

I was asked to do a Give Away of the 10th Edition of Consumer Reports for Baby, that also includes COUPONS for store brand formula.

According to the 10th edition Consumer Reports Best Baby Products, store-brand infant formula is as nutritious for babies as nationally advertised brands. Moms can save significantly – up to 50%-- by buying store brand infant formula vs. nationally advertised brands.

You can go here for discount coupons for a variety of store brand formulas.

I have until the 17th to select a winner from the comments section.

The winner will be selected from anyone who comments on this post and tells me how they save money and still provide their family with healthy options, to disprove the coupon myth that all good and healthy food are too expensive.
