I am all for saving money. What woman doesn’t want to save a couple of bucks when she is shopping? Nowadays, most of us have moved our shopping online and love coupon codes. FindSavings.com is a great place to get your coupon codes to save yourself a couple of bucks. You can easily find what you are looking for. On the left sidebar, you can search for your coupon either by using the category list or the store list. On the right sidebar, you can see all the new coupons that have been added into their system. The middle column has all of your featured deals. I personally am loving the HP Home Store Offers. Our HP desktop that we have now was custom built in 2000, and it still works! However, it is a tad slow compared to my laptop (which I bought in January). I had been thinking that we should do another custom built cpu, and I just found a coupon for $400 off! They even have coupon codes for my most favorite store: Best Buy. I can definitely always spend my hard earned money there. What is my favorite part of this site? I can sign up to get an email with the latest codes. Who wouldn’t want ways to save money sitting in their email? I know I am signing up for a couple of these coupon emails with my favorite stores. If you are looking for a one stop shop for your coupons, FindSavings.com is it.

When I first came across the blog Grilled Cheese Sandwich with Pickles, I had to laugh at the title . This is a title you are not going to forget. I personally would not put pickles on anything, but I know people who would. I also love the tagline: (on low-carb bread). I had to laugh out loud at that too. Its like ordering 1,000 calorie meal with a diet coke. LOL
I love that posts here are short, sweet, and to the point. They are very informative and enjoyable to read. I have to laugh at some of the title of her posts like Porn For Low-Carbers. I can only imagine the search engine hits she is going to get for that one! She also has great posts like Rebounding which talk about working through eating disorders.
This is another blog you should definitely check out!

The Incredible Truth about Motherhood is an awesome book to give to all new mothers. My sister bought me this book when I was pregnant with Madison. This book is all being a mom and how great it is. However, it doesn’t tell you that you are going to need acne treatments after giving birth! Of course, that could just be me. It tells a story of how life is once you become a mother, but how you would never give it up for anything. This book is a great book for moms of all ages. I would even consider giving it as a mother’s day present.

Want to be styling? Then you definitely need to check out Wedding Tropics. If you are planning a beach wedding or just like nice shirts, this is your one stop shop. My sister order one of the wedding shirts for her husband, and he loves it. The quality is excellent. Shipping does take a little bit. However, the quality is worth it. They make your shirt especially for you. I even found some cute dresses for Madison:

I would definitely order from this company. They have top notch products at good prices. They make perfect gifts for yourself or others.

I decided to use Bluehost for my hosting last January because of the many great reviews from other bloggers I know. They have not disappointed me. They have this cool live chat feature that you can use to contact them 24/7. I have used this several times and walked away happy. I never once have felt that I was being read a script (though I probably was). Tonight, my site was a white screen. All of us know how that strikes terror into our hearts. I had heard wonderful things about their phone support, so I decided to call. It was about 7 PM CST, so it was definitely off hours. The first thing that impressed me was that the phone system immediately told me what number in line I was. Granted, I was number twenty, but at least I knew where I stood. While I was holding, the system would interrupt the music to tell me that number 19, 18, and so forth to talk to a customer representative that was based in the United States. Now, I don’t want to sound mean, but I hate talking to customer service people who don’t have a good command of the English language. It just annoys me. I also hate being talked to off a script. Most of the foreign customer service people do that. It is like nails down a chalkboard for me. I like only have to explain my problem once and have the person understand me. When I got my customer service representative, he spoke perfect English and had my site back up in less than 5 minutes. I forgot to even ask why it was down, because he asked me about my toilet paper post and we started talking about that. My hosting is up for renewal in January, and I know I am sticking with Bluehost. I have always been impressed by their customer service, and I am even more so now. (I have an affiliate badge in my sidebar if you want more information about their hosting packages).
(Now you don’t need to be worried about hosting expenses because there are cheap web hosting services along with cheapest domain name registration facilities. You can also get windows hosting facility over Internet. Modern email marketing and the affiliate resources are a big source for improving your website ranking and traffic flow. Several wireless internet service providers also for securing data are offering special backup software to customers.)

If you have been Google slapped like myself (not on this blog but my other one was), you probably are trying to find new ways to get your site out there to more people (not that traffic helps PR but linkbacks do). The newest Social Media, Social Networking site out there is EarthFrisk. It is a combination of Digg/Thoof/Sk*rt and MyBlogLog/Blog Catalog. However, you get to choose what you want in your widget (as compared to the latter). You can definitely lose several hours of your days reading posts and watching videos (so make sure you have some free time while viewing). The site itself has several interesting facets to it.
I even enjoyed this:

I know it is so wrong (but very funny). It is hard to get comments. That being said they are running a pretty cool contest right now for cash and prizes (who can turn down a great contest?). Actually, they are running several different contests.
The first contest is for the largest network of friends. Right now, no one has over 80 friends, so you have a chance. First prize will net you $2,000 among some other cool stuff (but the cash should have gotten your attention. It is super easy to enter. First, you need to join (you know, fill in a couple of blanks with your information). Then get all of your friends to join too! The next contest is for the most submission and you can get yourself $500 for winning this one. You can also win by making the most commens on their boards and that will win you $500 too. Lastly, you can win $100 for the best looking/original homepage. Seriously, there is something for everyone to try for. Go check it out!
