New Week, New Deals, Call for Help

Hi all!

If you haven't already, I highly recommend you stop by and check out the PARTY PAGE and enter to win a bunch of fabulous prizes!  You can also snag a free download of a Scripture memory song from Seeds Family Worship.  If you join the party, you can enter to win even more great prizes.

I apologize for the recent spotty posting - things have been a bit crazy here.  I spent last Monday and last Friday in the hospital with strong and regular contractions at just 32 weeks.  I've been in a fog from muscle relaxers so thinking clearly to post has been a bit difficult!  I hope to be able to keep posting somewhat regularly over the next few weeks - I'm on bedrest at the moment and need to make it at least one more week to be able to deliver here in town rather than at a big hospital an hour or more away.

Now, why do we, as human beings, have such a drive to do things all on our own strength?  Why do we feel we need to do everything all by ourselves?  I have really struggled with asking for help.  I know there is simply no way I can care for my 18 month old when I am not allowed to lift anything or walk around much at all - especially when he RUNS everywhere.  I've had to swallow my pride and ask for lots of help.

I'm going to ask for help here as well.  Over the next month or so, I know I will not be able to post as frequently as I would like.  If you are a blogger or a writer or just someone who loves trying to be smart with money, I would love to talk to you about possibly writing a guest post or two with links back to your page.  Please email me at penguinelk at yahoo dot com if you are interested!  I am also looking for bloggers who do scenarios for specific stores.  If you have a specific store that you write scenarios for, please email me and I'll see about adding you to my scenario list.

Now for some deals!




It's Sunday which means a new week for deals.  It's the perfect time to order coupons for the next week or two of deals.  I checked MyCouponHunter recently and she had the BOGO Free CoverGirl coupons in stock.  These are HOT HOT HOT!  They'll go fast!  Rite Aid often runs BOGO Free CoverGirl sales, so you could get both items for free when using a coupon.  Other stores run great sales on these as well.  You may also want to stock up on some razor coupons for the Target gift card deal.
