Inspiring You To Save!!: CollegeAdvantage $100 Scholarship Giveaway - 2 Winners! Ends tonight;Hurry! I just found out about this.

This is way past due, but I hope it helps you!  Buff'd was so gracious in sending me samples of foundation, finishing powder, eye shadows, liner, blush and bronzer.

I have to say my opinion of the foundation is still the same and I prefer the original which gives nice coverage without being too heavy.  I'm a little heavy handed no matter what I know I should do so if you are too than I'd recommend Original.

You can't go with with their bronzers and blushes either.  I received Petunia which is a pink in bag, but warmer on skin. A medium-light bronzer, Toast, which works well for light skin too with a light touch and another blush Rosewood is a rosey wood color. lol In the past I tried Bouquet and that is my favorite out of the three. Their descriptions seem quite accurate in case you're looking for something different. I used the illuminating dust, Candlelight as an eye shadow to go with my browns or greens.

Okay what I'm most excited about are the shadows! The Purple family was sent and those went wonderful with my fairer complexion and hazel brown eyes.  Those are the first purples that I've really like and I've tried several.  I really believe the purples sent to me would go with any complexion and eye color since they don't pull too much red or blue, just neutral.  Here's the list of those:


Stormy Liner
Rabid Crease [wish it had a different name ;) ]



Heather Lid
Gracious Highlight

I wish I had a picture, but my husband hasn't hooked my port back up since the move to the basement which makes it a little more difficult for me. Also don't go solely by the product pictures because I know those look off and don't look like they belong together, but they do and I'm picky in that way.


Don't forget today is the last day for 20% full size products!

Walmart: Apples to Apples Family Version $10 shipped to store!


-Thank you Rose Knows Coupons!

"We heard your feedback and we've changed our Gift of Savings coupon policy. To best reward you for shopping at Rite Aid, manufacturer coupons will not be subtracted from your total spend amount. Check your accounts within the next 48 hours to see your recalculated balance. We understand you have a choice of pharmacies and thank you for your continued support of Rite Aid."

I think this is fabulous! Rite Aid didn't have to do this, but it's so great they not only heard those that emailed, but listened. Please be sure to thank them especially if you contacted them about your concerns with GOS.

The word on the street was that Garnier not only produced the advertised $10 Up wyb $30* but also the a Maybelline $5.  I planned on doing this deal before the Maybelline and the Maybelline cinched the deal. 

Here's what I did:

5 Herbashine $5.99 each=$29.95
1 Anti-Dandruff Shampoo=$3.33
Total $33.28

Coupons Used:
Redplum:$5/25 Rite Aid
VV: $2/1 Dandruff Product
VV: $1/1 Garnier Product
Mq: Free Herbashine~came in mail this week
Mq: Free Herbashine~came in Mom's mail this week
Mq: $3/1 Herbashine x 3=$9
Total: $28.98

Ups Used:$3

Cash Paid for Tax: $1.85

Ups Received: $5 Maybelline and $10 Garnier

MoneyMade: $15 Ups rewarded -$3 ups used + $2cash spent= $10

Also you will have $20.98 towards Gift of Savings if no Ups are used. Rite Aid is no longer substracting the Mqs, WooHoo, only RAqs and Ups(used as payment) are subtracted from your total. I will have $17.98.

*Make sure to reach $30. $29.99 won't work it must be $30 or more.

Need a last minute gift for a little boy* in your life? Then Hot Coupon Mamas found a deal for you at Amazon.

 *Not just for boys ;)

Hot Coupon Mamas: *HOT* Amazon: Grape-Nuts Cereal 4 - 24 oz Boxes $7...: "UPDATE- after clicking on the link below, on the right side you will see where it says 'Amazon.com $8.69' CLICK ON THAT! For some reason whe..."

This is a fabulous price especially if you don't coupon much, but if you do it's still great at least in my area. Not often I see Grape-Nuts go on sale at the same time a coupon is out. If you love this cereal, I know it is a love or hate cereal, but if you do love it you will probably want to go ahead and order it now.

Mommy Moments « A Thrifty Mom

I just had to share this tradition shared by A Thrifty Mom! I know some of you have little ones and might want to incorporate this into your Christmas Celebration. I would if mine were still young. They did love the one Navity I set up under the tree. I remember my now 16yr old lining them all up in a row. It's amazing how careful and respectful the children are.

Grateful Giveaways: Win One of More than 18 Prizes!

Once you follow the above link you will see you can enter up to four times at each of the 12 blogs! I entered just my top 5 choices so far; whew, I'm tired. lol You don't have to enter all the contests or at all the blogs, just do what interests you most.

The easiest way for me to enter quickly was to open all 12 blogs and copy and paste the first answer, hit submit, go to the next blog and repeat, then go back to the first blog and submit answer 2. This way it allows enough time to pass between answers without waiting around and getting a notice to slow down. Also make sure to have at least a three word answer or you'll get a too short comment notice. Hope you have fun and come back and let me know if you've won.

Future Deals ! Check out this link for future deals! I am signing up through google reader so I don't miss any. Check out the flatware set! That price wow! This is from the same website as the knife set I just shared!

KitchenAid®14 Piece Stainless Steel Cutlery Block Set $35

This is a fabulous price! Amazon gave it good reviews, but their price is over double this one. I would so snag this up I need some new knives and the silver and black is perfect. The only thing for me is my hubby bought me two Warther's knives and I'd have no place to put those. :( Hmmm maybe I need a magnet strip...



Thanks to Rose Knows Coupons and Luv a Bargain for sharing this deal first!

Today I checked out Jasmere because of another blogger and the deal on gourmet olive oils. I signed up for free when I realized how Jasmere works and what they have to offer.

Every day, jasmere features a unique, upscale product or website (designer jeans, gourmet foods, handmade jewelry and much more) and gives you the chance to buy at up to 70% off. The best part? Throughout the day as more people buy, the price keeps going down. No credit cards are charged until the feature ends, and everyone pays the same low price.

Plus a great feature is that you also earn $10 for each new customer that uses your referrel code. Will you please use mine if Jasmere ever interests you? Thank you!

Check out today's sale! A bottle of the Organic Olive Oil or Balsamic vinegar would make a lovely gift too especially for those that love to cook. You pick and choose because the offer is for a voucher to use at the O Olive store.

Excedrin® Home | Migraine and Headache

I was watching a news video when what should pop up, but an ad for FREE Excederin! This works better than anything for my migraines or general headaches. The offer is limited to one per person. You fill in your name and address and your coupon will be mailed to you!

We homeschool and I know many of you do too, but those of you that don't or those of you that do, but take outside classes as well this is such a cute and useful idea that I'm sure most teachers would appreciate. Check out the 12 days of Christmas! Change up the verses or gifts if you like to go with what your teacher/classroom needs. Great inspiration!

12 Days of Christmas Teacher Gift at How Does She Link

 Moms by Heart
has the details and found three lip balms, another blogger found a pouf for $3 and I found a make up sponge for $2 or $2.50.  It's up to you what you'd like to add to your cart to get the free butter.

I personally didn't buy anything, at least not yet for a few reasons. One is I make my own with less ingredients and without dyes, but honestly the ingredient in the The Body Shop's isn't horrible, I've seen worse and I've seen better. ;)

I guess I'm cheap and don't want to spend $3-$10 for it and something else thinking it will end up in "the pile". I'm not organized yet. shhhhh

If you use Body Butter or knows someone that will love this then it's a great deal especially if you use any of their other products. Oh there is a four way nail buffer/shiner that if it's anything like Mary Kay's  would be nice too. 

Did you open your RA letter? Sometimes I just click delete if I think it is nothing, but I had notice on this and made sure to open it.  The subject line does say coupon.  It arrived this week so if you missed it check your trash and if not keep looking in the next few days.

It's good towards any transaction as usual, but it is tied to your card and one time use only just like the VV now are.  Hope you get yours soon! Expires 12/31/10

I just thought I'd let you know that I also use Twitter and basically like my blog it is to share the deals, but in a quicker and easier fashion.  I also have a Facebook account. This account right now is my personal account, but I do share  deals there too with very little personal life shared for privacy reasons.  If you prefer following me there or in addition to here that would be great. 

Twitter should accept you right away, Facebook will need approve so give me a couple days and please let me know how I know you. ;D

My personal opinion with only owning one M&D item, mostly because my children are older is:

M&D remind me of Fisher-Price of yesterday, but with today's safety. I love toys like this that promote learning without a lot of bells and whistles. At 50% the prices are hard to beat for this Christmas or maybe think ahead for birthdays too!

   

Coupons.com released a $.50/2 Milky Way Bars coupon! I believe I saw those on sale at Giant Eagle for $.50 each!  Please let me know if I'm wrong it may have been Hershey. lol  Even so you may be able to score some inexpensive bars at regular price.

What a great gift that can always keep growing and kept neatly in a container if you've trained your child well. I didn't and those little pieces drove me crazy by my one son, but he does love those and had a ton of fun. Mega Blocks all the kids love, we keep those in a large container and those are easy to pick up and put away. I believe there's a deal at Walmart for those; I'll try and post soon.

NoNonsense is my favorite brand for socks, plus they carry black. I love black socks for my family.
Naturally, they carry lots of choices in white and some really cute striped and argyle socks for her.You'll also find their famous hosiery along with pjs and a few other items.

I just placed an order as the prices are even better than Wal Mart.

 Update Already! :(   I just fully read the PDF and it states from any Supercenter.  GE is not a Supercenter so essentially this rebate is for Wal~Mart hence the WM giftcard. 

If anyone hears differently please let me know.  If you're a WM shopper it still may make a great deal especially if you're do not have grocers that double coupons.

Great buy on Stove Top, Seattle's Best Coffee and Heinz Gravy. Personally, I'm a gravy snob and like homemade, but if you struggle the make gravy the trick is to add a little of the real broth to the premade gravy. This tip is from my husband's mom and I can vouch that it works great.
