FREE 2 Year Subscription to US Weekly!

OK, so I know gossip mags are not exactly classy, but man I love them when I've got some down time! US Weekly is one of my faves. I get it now because Rewards Gold offered this same subscription a while back. A two year subscription is usually pretty expensive, but you can get it totally free! If you already have a subscription, you can still get this freebie, they'll just tack another 2 years on when your current subscription runs out. I totally signed up again! Now, Rewards Gold asks you to take a quick 2 page survey. I was asked about deodorant and soap. It took me less than 10 minutes. Click here to order your free 2 year subscription! I have gotten a ton of free magazine subscriptions through Rewards Gold. The great ones like this go fast!

My Newest BzzAgent Campaign

The latest BzzAgent campaign that I have been invited to join is a really cool one! The point of the campaign is to get people to shop for more than just groceries at Kroger (or one of their partner stores). In exchange for my participation I received some great money saving coupons that could be used to buy any brand of laundry detergent, any brand of bath tissue, any brand of facial tissue, any brand of paper towels, and any household cleaning product. I received a sheet of super high value coupons for my participation in the campaign & a bunch of sheets of high value coupons to share with others! I ended up getting a bottle of Tide, a large package of Bounty, a medium package of Charmin, a big canister of Clorox Wipes and one pretty round box of Kleenex all for around $7! Obviously, I was pretty thrilled with the savings. I still have 3 sheets of coupons to give away. Each is good for $2 off of the product categories I listed above. The coupons expire 3/25/14. If anyone wants a sheet, I'll happily drop one in the mail if you leave the request in the comments section!

Birchbox Month 2

So, this is now the second month of my Birchbox subscription. I'm a little happier with this box, though I can't say that I'm super impressed yet. I have yet to try the Bain de Terre passion flower color preserving shampoo and conditioner, the Miracle Skin Transformer Face Spotlight and the Previse Hydromilk. I'm happy about the shampoo and conditioner since I have highlights that I'd definitely like to preserve. The Miracle Skin I read can be combined with foundation to give skin a nice glow. We'll see if it actually does. The Previse, is a facial moisturizer. I don't like that the sample can't be resealed. It seems like more than I would use on my face all at once. The StriVectin-AR I've been using under my eyes at night. It's only been a week so I haven't seen any results yet, but it does seem to make my skin feel soft. I'm still keeping the subscription, I really do love trying new products and it seems like the products they send out are at least high quality, even if the boxes don't seem to contain as much as I had originally thought.

Amazon Freebies!!

Now I know I have posted before about the amazing sites that give away Amazon gift cards but I just have to talk about them again! I just ordered a super cute luggage set for our upcoming trip. The set was already priced fantastically on Amazon but thanks to all the Amazon gift cards I've earned I got the set for free! Yes, absolutely FREE! First, Viewpoints is the site that I get the most gift cards from. They have an awesome points system that allows users to earn a lot in Amazon gift cards. Next is Swagbucks. I recently cashed in my Swagbucks for 2 $5 Amazon gift cards. It can take a while to get there, but since you don't have to really work for them I don't mind. All you do is search the internet and earn Swagbucks at random. It doesn't get much easier than that!

Royal Caribbean Cruise Booked!

My family has just booked a cruise on Royal Caribbean's Liberty of the Sea ship! My husband is staying home, but I'll be going with my 2 kids, my parents and my brother. I'm beyond excited to get to share this experience with my kids! I hope this trip will live up to all expectations. It's been years since I've taken a cruise, but I remember them being lots of fun. I'll be sure to post a review when we get back in April!
