It’s been a hard few days — I have an appointment to see a mental health person to get my meds adjusted, so I just have to hang on til then. But I may be a little quiet this week. In the meantime, Mr. Rebates is giving away $10,000. You can get 1 entry per day by signing in to your account. I’d get crackin’ folks. No related posts.

Amoozle is a bad idea

Sorry to do such a quick reversal. And I’m sorry for posting about something I hadn’t checked out thoroughly. Since someone I knew had received the items, I thought it was safe. And it may still be — the jury’s out. So far, there are no actual complaints of not receiving items. That said, my mom talked to an industry friend of hers who, after some quick checking, was very skeptical. Furthermore, she mentioned a FatWallet thread about Amoozle . The details are not in Amoozle’s favor. Does... Read Full Story
How I saved $60

The website Amoozle is currently offering a buy one, get one free on $25 Visa, MasterCard and American Express gift cards . My mom used the site to buy a similar offer for Amazon. The code was emailed to her after the promotion ended, so I know it’s not a hoax. Now, before you get too excited, I should warn you there are some restrictions: 1. You can only get one of each card. 2. The cards won’t ship until the promotion ends, which is when all 500 are sold or 21 days are up. Whichever... Read Full Story
DIY spa day

Yesterday, one of our friends had a birthday party. I literally can’t remember the last time I went to a party. A couple we know had a housewarming party back in late spring or early summer, but I wasn’t feeling well and didn’t go. Given all the crap that has been happening lately — and the fact that I actually felt emotionally stable enough to go — I decided some pampering was in order. So, mini spa day. Body wash Because of Tim’s skin, we have a lot of Philosophy products lying... Read Full Story

Toilet paper math
| From : ipickuppennies.net
Not yet published.
I am always frustrated by toilet paper prices.  Thanks to different sizes of packaging — number of rolls, sheets per roll, regular or double, etc — toilet paper is just not something that’s easy to compare. Of course, toilet paper is also one of those things I rarely think about until we’re almost out. In which case, I’m forced to simply choose the best deal that I can find and hope it’s not too bad. Not knowing, though, frustrates me. Most other grocery and toiletries items are easily... Read Full Story
After the D & C

I’ve never been great at allowing myself healing time. I laid low on Friday after the D & C. On Saturday, though, I took my mother-in-law to a Goodwill sale. Then, instead of lying down, I got a notion in my head that it was the perfect time to sweep the house. (In my defense, tile means it’s more obvious you need to clean.) And sweeping entails sweeping, then Swiffering and then using a wet Swiffer cloth. That started the cramps back up, but I desperately wanted to get out of the house... Read Full Story
Want to buy a car? Overpay your taxes

Normally, just about everyone in the personal finance world is going to tell you to avoid overpaying the IRS. I am usually one of them. While you want to avoid penalties for late payments or underpayment, it’s also important to remember that the IRS won’t give you a penny of interest for any overpayment. (Though it has little compunction about charging you interest on underpayment.) That said, there are times that you can profit from overpaying the IRS. To be exact, you can get a 100...

Buckling down — for all 4 of us
| From : ipickuppennies.net

My goal this week is to get serious about groceries. We really aren’t doing a great job of carefully planning the food bill. Part of that is laziness on our part. Currently, Nadine gets about $300 a month in benefits. Now that we’re all more settled in, the rampant grocery spending seems to have abated; so her monthly benefits cover most of our grocery costs. But, starting in February, Arizona state will be in charge of her food stamps, which means she’ll only get about $100 in help. In... Read Full Story
