I would recommend adding the toolbar too so you can get codes delivered right to you!

I want to first say that I am so very sorry that I have been absent for these last 9 days but things have been a little hectic with work, kids & home that by the time I had a few minutes to post something, I was asleep.  I am on vacation for the next 7 days so I hope to make up on some of the things I have missed out on!

My husband is still out of work – 3 months now…so yes, we are still doing the frugal thing but luckily, not having to shop quite as much.  We are still nowhere near the “cherry picking” stage but it feels nice occasionally to be able to say that I did not have to grocery shop this week.  (That was two weeks ago though!)  With Thanksgiving quickly approaching I had no choice in the matter.  My daughters are looking forward to the food and I can truthfully say, so am I!  So much for losing the 35lbs that I have gained since finding out about my Cancer.  It’s been a rough year for the weight.  I am working on changing my eating habits and believe it or not, yes, you can lose weight over the holidays!  Maybe not at my house but I am certainly gonna give it a shot cutting back on some of the high calorie foods without telling my family.  I bet they won’t even notice!  I will post a few of the recipes I am going to try out in another post this evening.

Oh, and I was able to snag my 4th Amazon gift card in exactly 1 month from Swagbucks! At first, I wasn’t sure what I was going to do with them but now I know.  My husband wants a Mapsco for Christmas.  Not one, but two…for the Dallas & Ft. Worth area.  For the type of work he does, knowing the area is very important so I guess he is not wanting to fall behind with the way the cities are changing while he is still looking for a job.  Well, anyone that knows about these things knows they are not cheap!  I went on the Mapsco website this morning and for just two of them the total was $75.00 not including the shipping!!  I found that I can buy them through Amazon.com and I was thrilled!  The are cheaper & I have gift certificates to make it that much better!  I know a Mapsco doesn’t sound too exciting but hey, it makes my man happy and that is all that counts!

On to what makes me happy…SAVING MONEY!!  I went to CVS & Walgreens today and took my youngest daughter with me.  She confirmed what my hubby keeps saying…”mom, you played them.  Dad is right, you are a thief!”  What?  I didn’t play them…I played SMART!  I will post in a bit about that as well.  Right now I have to go check on dinner.  Chicken Spaghetti…our family favorite!

Be back soon!!

On October 19th I posted a way to earn Amazon Gift Certificates by using Swagbucks as your search engine.  I had just earned my first $5 Amazon GC and claimed I could earn another one in 2 weeks.  Well, I did it.  This morning I earned my 2nd $5.00 Amazon GC.  Now to some of you, $5.00 may not seem like much but just check out some of the things you can get at Amazon for under $5.00 – perfect for stuffing those stockings:

Holiday Mini Hand Cream

Safety 1st Easy Grip Brush & Comb

Burts Bees Beeswax Lipbalm

Okay, so my point to all of this – if you haven’t joined Swagbucks yet, you should do so and start earning great goodies like Amazon GCs, restaurant GCs, PayPal Cash, music downloads, iPhones & more!!

Okay, usually I don’t get excited about using search engines but this one has proven to be an EASY gift certificate earner.  Swagbucks ROCKS!  In less than 2 weeks, I have earned enough Swag Bucks to get a $5.00 Amazon GC.  I am not anywhere near being classified as a power searcher so I just keep thinking…”What if I was?”…I might earn enough GCs over the next year to purchase all of 2010’s Christmas gifts!  It only takes 45 to get $5.00…I just now got 2 Swag Bucks for searching the word “Rebate”…how easy is this?  I added the Swagbucks toolbar to my home and work computers and now I can increase my earning power!

If you haven’t joined yet, it’s free and easy and the toolbar is the ONLY one I have ever put on my computers.  If I trust it enough to install it on my work computer, that is saying a lot!

If you are still undecided, that’s okay…just more chances for me to earn Swagbucks…but really, I would encourage you to join.  I like to share the wealth!

Every Friday, Swagbucks gives you a chance to win more  Mega Swag Bucks with your searches. They give away up to 10,000 Swag Bucks in Mega Bills every Friday!  It only takes 45 to get a $5 Amazon Gift Card but there are so many other things to chose from in the Swag Bucks store – Paypal cash, T-shirts, Music downloads, restaurant gift cards are only a few of the prizes you can earn just for doing what you do daily anyway…searching the Internet.  It’s free and easy so if you haven’t joined yet, be sure and do so!

Happy Mega Swag Bucks Day and Good luck to you!
