Good Freebie from Suave!

I got this in an email from Freebies 4 Mom today:  Suave Beauty is giving away 50,000 full-size Suave Professionals Keratin Infusion line products .  You just go to Suave Beauty on Facebook and click on the giveaway button after you 'like' them.  It took a little while to load, but I filled out the form and looks like I am good to go.  So they are not at the 50K limit yet!

 
And Speaking of saving money, my copy of  "The Money Saving Mom's Budget" has arrived and guess what chapter one is all about?  Setting Goals.  How timely!  That is what I am working on right now.  So my goal is to implement a budget for our family for 2012.
 
If you go to her webpage today 1/17 she has a post up to enter to win a copy if her book!  I got mine by clicking her link and ordering it from Amazon with my $25 gift code for Amazon I earned from using My Points--so my copy was free, woo hoo!

I need to work on getting together meal planning, lately I have been trying to figure out a way to organize my coupons....

And yesterday I found a great way to organize recipes, goals and things I want to look into online.  It is called Pintrest.  Online bulletin boards, fun to make, fun to use, and probably a big time waster...

Here is my page.  I do hate the clutter of recipes cut out of magazines, so Pintrest can definitely help with that, as well as keeping an accessable list of books I want to read. So many ways to waste time, so little time to waste.

Free Books! A Little Giveaway!

A while back, on a budgeting blog, which one I don't recall?  Maybe it was Money Saving Mom (TM) or Dealicious Mom?  I am not sure, anyway, I saw that you can join Harlequin Ambassadors and they will send you free books to read and share. I like books and I really like happy endings. I know that when reading a romance from Harlequin I'm going to get my happy ending, guaranteed.  So I signed up a while ago and forgot about it. 

Then yesterday, I was walking out to the mailbox, hoping that I'd find chocolate.  Well, I didn't have a package of chocolate, much to my dismay.  I did have a delivery from Harlequin Ambassadors. A book called "A Cold Creek Secret" by RaeAnne Thayne (USA Today bestselling author). The book is from "the special edition series featuring contemporary romances where heroines juggle life and relationships on their way to true love." It's a short easy read, great for a respite from the holiday mania, or good for having on hand when you are stuck in a waiting room at an appointment.  I have four copies looking to find a good home.  Want one?  Just leave your email in the comments and I'll contact you for your mailing address.  I'll be shiping these media mail so it may take a few days longer, but free is free! 

Oh before I forget here is the link for Harlequin Ambassadors.  Now I am off to find some more freebies, and yes I really should be working on Christmas presents...
