Are You All Signed Up?

I've been encouraging all of you to sign up for at least two of the blogs that I follow and I'm checking in again to see how you're all doing!

DealSeekingMom is a superblogger - she posts new deals on a daily basis. Occasionally she will post deals that are long term and I think can benefit everyone. Those deals I try to list here for any of you who have been checking in. She also posts deals that change weekly, some even limited to the same day. That's why it's important to sign up to follow her blog. There is a quick index inside each of her emails, so you can quickly tell if there's anything of interest to you. MomsNeedToKnow is very similar. These two gals often list the same deals, but sometimes one gets the message out earlier than the other. That's why I'm signed up to follow both.

The other major benefit to following these two blogs is that they both cover a variety of stores/brands and sometimes come up with different deal scenarios. I really love getting a good deal on the stuff that I need. I recently paid $2.22 for more than $20.00 worth of grocery items - which made it feasible for me to buy Spencer a school T-shirt!

Sometimes you find great deals on items that you may not need yourself. My thoughts on these items are this: if you don't need it, don't get it - if someone else may benefit from it, get it and donate it. I don't mind paying tax only on items that can be donated to the church, local shelters/charities or even my neighbors.

I'm going to try to get more active again on posting good deals as I come across them. If you have any bargain tips please shoot me a message!
