Shopping for a Good Cause: Breast Cancer Awareness

BreastCancerLogo2

It’s October, which means a lot of people and places will Go Pink Breast Cancer Awareness Month.  Will you?

For me, the easiest way to go pink is to buy Breast Cancer Awareness merchandise.  I especially like to buy apparel, because the money you spend on the products will support Breast Cancer Awareness, and then you can give further support by wearing what you bought.  And with the weather finally feeling fallish, I’m wanting to buy some new clothes anyway, so why not shop and make a difference in support a good cause?

Go Pink Sweatshirt

The Breast Cancer Site Store offers stylish items to help you show your support.  This includes great apparel like the sweatshirt above, but also includes pink ribbon jewelry and gifts.  I found a lot of great shirts and shoes that I’d love to wear.  And there are so many cute bracelets and necklaces to wear or give as gifts.

Saving-with-Walgreens-Paperless-Coupons

Coupons are a great way to save money on groceries and essentials for the family, but a lot of people don’t like going through all the trouble involved:  find the coupon, clip the coupon, actually remember to bring the coupon(s) to the store, and then actually remember to get everything you’ve got a coupon for. Phew!  But now  Walgreens is making the couponing experience much easier and stress-free with their new Paperless Coupons.

Today I’m going to show you how you can find and use Walgreens Paperless Coupons, and I’ll show you some of the things I saved money on by using these coupons.  And finally I will show you what I did (or would like to do) with money we save by using these coupons. [Read more…]

Black Friday Shopping with Target #MyKindofHoliday

Target Black Friday

How do you spend the day after Thanksgiving? Do you brave the Black Friday crowds?

I usually spend the day after Thanksgiving pulling out my Christmas decorations and decking the halls.  And sometimes I do a little shopping.

I used to really get in to the Black Friday shopping.  Shortly after I started blogging, I created a 2-part post series with tips for Black Friday and Holiday shopping.  Here are the links if you’d like to check them out: Part 1  and Part 2. [Read more…]

My Favorite ALDI Products #aldiraves

ALDI STORE

Today we’re taking an inside look at my latest trip to ALDI.  I bought a lot of the items I’d typically buy on a trip to the market, including milk, cheese, meat, can goods, baking ingredients, and snacks.  The grand total for my entire trip was $85!

That probably doesn’t sound like a lot of money to spend on groceries, but if you look below, you’ll see just how much groceries I was able to get for this amount at ALDI.

Prize Candle Review

Prize Candle
Looking for a practical, but fun gift idea?  You should consider Prize Candle.   Like other candles, a Prize Candle makes a lovely accent piece and gives off a wonderful aroma when burned, but what makes a prize candle different from other candles is that it contains a ring inside.  Each ring is valued anywhere from $10 to $5000.

All you have to do is burn your candle, and then use tweezers to pull your ring packaging out of the candle.  Inside the packaging you will find code.  Enter the code on the Prize Candle website, and it will tell you how much your ring is worth.

I received a 9 oz soy candle in the Blue Cypress scent.  I really enjoyed burning this candle because it had a very clean smell to it.  It was very nice and not too overwhelming.  And of course, I was very excited to get my ring.

Prize Candle Ring

The ring I received features a large dark blue stone, and it is just beautiful. The ring itself was just a $10 ring, but I still love it.  It’s very stylish, and it will go with a lot of different outfits.
