Making Money During Naptime

Hiding in Sunshine

noreply@blogger.com (LaurAnn) — Fri, 01 Feb 2013 14:30:00 +0000

This past month I had the awesome opportunity to receive an extra special, free item to test and review from one of my favorite sites - Influenster.

Hiding in Sunshine is the work of a father and daughter duo who reside in the immediate area where these fictional events transpire. John Stuart is a successful high tech entrepreneur. Caitlin Stuart is a student and an aspiring writer with a lifelong love of reading and telling stories. This is their first co-authored novel -- and is proof that a teenager and her dad can indeed collaborate amicably and productively!

My review, which can be found on Amazon:

I found that the story's attention to detail was fantastic. The plot requires the reader to understand a great deal of technological information - but it is clearly described for the less techno saavy reader...occasionally the amount drags the story down and it can be daunting to press through. The characters (the Brinkleys) are very likeable and readers are easily able to empathize with them as they struggle to adapt to their new life, all while trying to find their way back to their old one. I also enjoyed how the story "told" rather than "showed" - a bit of unnatural dialogue), however it still seemed smooth and natural. The story flowed from start to finish and the conclusion is very satisfying!

If you are interested in reading the book, which I highly recommend, you can find it on Amazon in softcover for $19.95!

Six Ways to Save Like an Extreme Couponer!

noreply@blogger.com (LaurAnn) — Fri, 08 Apr 2011 19:27:00 +0000

1. Start Small

Don't try to go extreme all at once. Take it step by step, rather than show up at a checkout with 50 coupons and little idea what you're doing.

2. Never Pay For Coupons
There are some things in this life you just shouldn't pay for, and a coupon is one of them. Paying someone to clip or organize your coupons defeats the purpose of living frugally. Instead, surf Sunday newspaper ad supplements for coupon savings; ask your neighbors for their unwanted papers; or dive inside a recycled dumpster or two. Also, free online coupon sites like CouponSherpa.com give consumers access to a multitude of coupon codes and printable coupons for thousands of merchants.

3. Get Organized
A little organization can go a long way. Always create a shopping list and have your coupons and shopping strategy organized before you even enter the store. Use an expandable coupon binder to sort coupon inserts by date, categories and expiration dates. Transfer to a small couponizer only those you'll need for a specific shopping trip.

4. Location, Location, Location
Where you shop is a key factor in making the best use of your time and coupons. Only shop at locations that allow coupon stacking and combining coupons with in-store offers. Don't be afraid to call and ask about policies before you show up. You don't want to wind up embarrassed at the checkout line with a handful of useless coupons.

5. Loyalty Rewards
Always take advantage of club membership rewards. These programs are usually free and have many savings perks, like rewards points, cash back programs, and double points for every certain amount you spend.

6. Don't Be Greedy
This is often where extreme couponers cross over into the world of hoarding. Only shop for items you actually need, products you can stock up on that aren't perishable, and those you can donate. Remember, a bargain is only a bargain if you can actually use the purchase. If your pantry has expanded into your living room and the kids are sleeping on rolls of toilet paper, you've probably reached hoarder status.

Swagbucks Birthday Cryptogram

noreply@blogger.com (LaurAnn) — Tue, 22 Feb 2011 15:36:00 +0000

A cryptogram is a type of puzzle which consists of a short piece of encrypted text. In most basic cryptograms, a substitution cipher is used where each letter is replaced by another letter. Your job is to figure out which letters are substituted for which and what the original phrase actually is.

For example, DV OLEV HDZT YFXPH is a cryptogram of WE LOVE SWAG BUCKS where Ws have been substituted with Ds, Es have been substituted with Vs and Ss have been substituted with Hs, etc etc.

The following clues have been released so far!

February 18th: the fifth letter is C (link)
February 19th: the seventh letter is N (link)
February 20th: the third letter is R (link)
February 21st: the ninth letter is "the letter that appears the most times in our current President’s name, and the first letter of the second President’s last name.” (link)

The cryptogram so far:

► _ _ R _ C _ N _ A _ _ ◄

Good Luck!

Thanks goes to We Love Swagbucks!

Swagbucks Gearing up to Celebrate 3rd Birthday

noreply@blogger.com (LaurAnn) — Tue, 22 Feb 2011 15:27:00 +0000

Swagbucks is once again gearing up to celebrate their birthday on Monday, February 28th… and you won't want to miss it!

Last year, the site saw a complete redesign of the Swag Bucks system, and before the end of the day The Swag Buy released EIGHT SWAG CODES!

This year the excitement has already begun with the daily release of letters in a "Cryptogram Swag Code." Starting on February 17th, Swag Bucks has been releasing one letter a day in a cryptogram whose solution, on their birthday, will give you what The Swag Guy says will be a “big, fat code."

So if you were still on the fence about Swag Bucks, there has never been a better time to sign up!
