Ebay Coupons

Have you ever thought about getting coupons from Ebay??? It's been a game changer. I don't even buy a Sunday paper anymore. If you find a deal that you really love, you can search for coupons on Ebay. They normally come in lots of 10 or 20. STOCK PILE!!!!!!!!

So you signed up for the sites I told you about for couponing, right??? Now when they tell you exactly which coupon to look for you can go on Ebay and search for it.
Kroger had a deal on Smart Balance Milk. We go through this like it's going out of style. The milk is normally $3.99. It was on sale for $2.49 and there was a coupon out there for $1.50/off. YUP...that makes the half gallon a whopping ONE DOLLAR!! So I ordered some coupons from Ebay and stocked up!

Seriously...GAME CHANGER!

Ever thought about going to Ebay for coupons?

Great Sites for Couponing

I have fallen in love with couponing. It took me a minute to get it right (and I'm still no expert) but I have been so proud of some of the deals I have found. :o)

It's not as hard as I'm sure it used to be. With the Internet, all of the deals are right at your finger tips.

I am NOT finding these deals on my own. There are some great sites out there that do all the work for you! What could be better???

Here are some of my FAVS!!

I Heart Publix (all about Publix deals)

I Heart Kroger (all about Kroger deals)

Souther Savers (Mainly for those stores in the Southern states)

These sites will even have next week's sales out in advance. You can totally get your self prepared for the deals coming up! But most importantly they find the deals for you. They list all of the deals. Exactly which coupons can be used and how much the item will end up being after the coupons. AND (yes more) they even tell which Sunday paper the coupon was in by the date. There are even some coupons that are printable and you can get straight from the link they provide. WHAT MORE CAN YOU ASK FOR? All you have to do is read the info.

ALSO...almost every store has an I HEART site. So if you like Walmart, Rite Aid, CVS, or Walgreens (iheartwags) try those out as well.

Don't say I've never shared this info...LOL

HAPPY SAVINGS!!!

Obsessed with Pinterest

WHY WHY WHY did y'all tell me about Pinterest???? Anyway...I'm glad you did! LOL I am IN LOVE! I am now the Betty Crocker of my house, the best dressed in my head, and have a new found love of doing everything MYSELF!!!

Okay let me back up. What is Pinterest???  Who can better explain it but Pinterest themselves. This is from their site...

What is Pinterest?

Pinterest is a Virtual Pinboard.

Pinterest lets you organize and share all the beautiful things you find on the web. People use pinboards to plan their weddings, decorate their homes, and organize their favorite recipes.
Best of all, you can browse pinboards created by other people. Browsing pinboards is a fun way to discover new things and get inspiration from people who share your interests. To get started, request an invite.

YES...you have to request an invite unless someone you knows invites you. *waving hands* I'm on, so if you want I can invite you! LOL Sounds so exclusive right?? LOL

I have found some of the most amazing things and really do plan on trying ALL of it at least in my head. Here are some examples of things I've "pinned"...

Miss Black France

The first ever Miss Black France pageant was held this past weekend in Paris. Mbathio Beye, 21, of Senegal, was crowned queen. Unfortunately there is tons of controversy surrounding the event. The Huffington Post reports on the story:

France has a new queen--beauty queen that is. Mbathio Beye has been crowned the first "Miss Black France"

But there was a lot of hoopla surrounding the pageant, so we're surprised it even took place.

According to the pageant's organizer Frédéric Royer, the goal of the event was to "celebrate black beauty," and "to shine a light on the many Black women in this country who are rarely given any media attention."

Yet the last time woman of color to took home the "Miss France" title was only three years ago in 2009 when Chloé Mortaud won—a biracial woman of African American and French descent.  

Click here for the full story.

The also have a poll...

Are Race Based Pageants Ok?

Yes. There are not enough opportunities for minority women to shine.
Maybe. I don't have a problem with them, as long as they don't put down other races.
No. They are a huge step back from moving toward a post racial world. 

What are your thoughts?

Simple as that.
