Changes to Safeway coupon policy

There have been some changes to the Safeway coupon policy. I personally rarely shop at Safeway (favor albies) and probably wont be much more. The best deals were always found when you could combine a ecoupon with a paper coupon. But no more...to read more about it check out Krazy Coupon Lady.

Are your Christmas cards done?

It is that time of year again! Ok, so we are not even at Halloween, but if you plan on doing personalized Christmas cards now is the time to get started.

Currently, “Shutterfly is offering 20% off all holiday cards”.

So go to Shutterfly and take a look through their Holiday cards to find one that fits your family. And don't forget to pass this deal on to friends and family.

My family uses Shutterfly for just about everything. Ever since my oldest was born we have used Shutterfly's services for our holiday cards, birth announcements, party invitations and of course the annual calendar that the Grandparents expect for Christmas. If you are lucky enough to have a holiday baby (mine was born a couple days before Thanksgiving) be sure to check out the Holiday themed Birth Announcements to introduce your little one to the family.

I am trying to decide what we will be using for our holiday cards this year. Shutterfly has such a wide assortment that is sure to please anyone. I personally love the vintage looking cards that are in black and white, but my 4 year old is voting for the "Happy Confetti" because it has colorful flowers. I am leaning toward "With love Chartreuse" myself. It is elegant and sleek and very professional looking.

Once you decide on your Holiday cards, don't forget to browse through their address labels to match your cards. Last year we ordered labels with our picture on them and got extra so we could use them for the rest of the year.

I have never been disappointed by Shutterfly. It is so easy to upload your pictures and complete projects for yourself or family and friends.

Now off to coral my family and try to get a decent family picture for the cards, otherwise everyone is going to get to see my messy haired, mud smeared girls smiling at them all season long.

More to come

Swagbucks

For those of you who dont have Swagbucks yet...please click on my right side banner to sign up.

Swagbucks is a google type search engine that rewards YOU for using them. I generally get 2-3 swagbucks a day, and you can start redeeming around 45. For 45 swagbucks you can get a $5 amazon gift card (my fav.).

So if you average just 2 swagbucks a day, in a month you will have made enough for a $5 giftcard, with the leftovers you will be 1/2 way to another! Granted, its not a ton, but $5 is more than other search engines pay you a month.
