Father's Day is a very special day because it is when we celebrate all of the dads in our lives who have mentored and nurtured us over the years. Being a dad is sometimes a thankless job and we all know how important the role of a father is in a child's life. Every year, I struggle with deciding what I should get the men in my life who are fathers because they all have different interests and I try to stay on a budget while making sure I get each one of them just the right present. This year I started shopping early so that I would have plenty of time to purchase some great gifts while taking advantage of some great deals. I love PromotionalCodes.com for this very reason, it allowed me to find codes to save money on everything from from cool clothes, tech gifts and … [Read more...]

Brighten Your Smile Professionally On A Budget! #SmileBrilliant @SBWhitening #Giveaway #Ad
*I participated in this campaign on behalf of Smile Brilliant. I received a promotional item to facilitate this review and as a thank you item for participating. All opinions are my own. Honestly, I've always wanted to whiten my teeth professionally but I have been afraid of the cost to go to the dentist and have it done. Let's face it, when household expenses have to be paid in a Middle-Class household, teeth whitening is not exactly high up on most people's list of priorities. However, I'm a woman and having a bright and beautiful smile is very important to me. I had no idea that Smile Brilliant offers an affordable option for those of us who are interested in whitening our teeth professionally.

This demonstrates to me that this a company that stands behind the product that they are offering and its … [Read more...]
Four Eyes Are Definitely Better Than Two! @Firmoo #Ad
*I participated in a campaign on behalf of Firmoo.com. I received a promotional item to facilitate this post and as a thank you item for participating. All opinions are my own. I've been wearing glasses since I was in the sixth grade. It was pretty much something that was inevitable because everyone in my family is near-sighted and this is something that is considered hereditary. Some of the eyeglass frames that I have owned over the years were less than flattering which, during those awkward teenage years, did not help at all. Now that I am an adult I try to choose frames that are a lot more attractive but, unfortunately, eyeglasses are very expensive so I sometimes have to settle for cheaper frames. Since both of our sons wear glasses along with my husband and I, our yearly eyeglasses budget has skyrocketed and I have been looking for a way to save a little money. Luckily, there is an affordable and stylish option which is ordering your glasses online at … [Read more...]

In light of the current economic times, many people are educating themselves more and more about ways that they could save money on their household budgets.
