Apparently today you can earn extra Swagbucks by using their search engine a few times; I ran about 5 or 6 quick searches and a box came up awarding me 10 Swagbucks. We now return to our regularly scheduled Google…
I force myself to do this at least one time every day. I’m up to 166 Swagbucks since I enrolled (a few days ago?) We’ll see how many bucks I can accumulate…
For those of you beyond disappointed in my site, I offer this email I received (in my Hotmail inbox – surprise!) as a peace offering:
This Christmas I want you to feel as free as I do.
I used to hate showing the grocery bill when I came home — But not any more!
I discovered the secret to beating grocery stores at their sneaky marketing tricks — and I save $180 to $240 a month for my family of four.
Now you can learn these same secrets.
Most Grocery Shoppers fall into One of Two Types…
1) You don’t REALIZE how much money you can save
2) You THINK you’re saving money already
But, it doesn’t matter if you live in a small town, a big city, or somewhere in-between … Every grocery store is using the same bag of tricks to get your money!
I’ve got the secret to beating them. And, you can have these tactics too.
The strategies in this ebook work whether you live in Lisle, IL, Boise, ID or Richmond, VA!
And you won’t cut corners on your food. It’s alot easier than you think to get the same great-tasting, food you already buy … for a lot less money.
For a short time over the Christmas Holidays I’m offering this system for just $19. I don’t know how long I can keep it this low, though.
But, you can’t lose with our 100%, no questions asked, money-back guarantee. Besides, the average family of four saves $180 to $240 a month using this system properly.
Here’s to a great Christmas and a better New Year,
Debbie Maxinelli
P.S. Don’t miss out on this. There are a few extra bonuses if you hurry.

betting Nigeria here, but I could be wrong. Thought I’d share this with you all, even if I’m supposed to keep this information secret…you wouldn’t steal my claim, would you?
Another post from the third circle of hell…Seriously, never wait until the expiration of a voucher, ’cause everyone else will be shopping there at the same time! Found tons of jeans for $250; unfortunately, I do not have a $250 ass ’cause if I did I’d be peddling it on Craigslist. not that there’s anything wrong with that…
Lots of jeans that are identical to those in my drawers…which also don’t fit. Problem is too little jean, too much me. Finally found a few things that were pretty decent (especially when the rack prices are reduced by 60%). Total came to $50.95 plus tax.
Obviously this is not an illness with which I am very familiar… This is more of a public service announcement (or PSA to be trendy).
Isabelle Caro died last month at the age of 28. When this photo was shot in 2007 she weighed about 59 pounds. I chose the “black bars” photo, but honestly? there is nothing sexy at all about her puny little deflated water balloons. Nasty, scary and tragic.
Now excuse me while I figure out ways to add Super Weight-On to PITA’s meals.
A few years ago my DH received a “frantic” call from his mother – apparently some cousins had received a phone call from Mexico saying that he had been kidnapped and was being held for ransom. Easily answered by saying “Mom, don’t you think I would have mentioned going off to Mexico?”
In the same vein is the following article from the New York Times’ David Pogue on a typical wire-me-funds scam that has a rather different ending … read all the comments, for even more laughs…
I saw this BOGO promo coupon much earlier, but the few times I had this (admittedly mediocre) pizza it was BOGO already. So this would give you three crummy pizzas for the price of one? Went to the corporate site and checked it out. Apparently, BOGO days are long gone (I think ours were delivered on horseback…), and they now have this deal called Hot and Ready pizzas which are always ready, no waiting. Selection varies with the store, so if you have your heart set on the carnivore special, don’t get freaked by the Hawaiian with extra pineapple staring you in the face. check first
Here’s the link, folks, if you want to try for two hot pizzas for five bucks (the price posted in the local area website). Note that you must register before you can print a coupon and you can only print one. Name and email are required fields, but the cell number is optional. This deal started yesterday, the 26th and goes through the 28th. Mangia!
Just got an email from Coupons by Dede that she will be pulling all 12/31/2010 exp. coupons off today, the 27th, at midnight. If there’s something you’re getting at Jewel (special order, perhaps?) or plan to pick up, don’t forget that you can buy it now and return within the next 60 days with your receipt and coupon to get your money back. Make sure that the total you pay before coupons will allow them to give you the cash back (ex. don’t bring the total down to a buck using RRs and then look for two bucks back in coupons – voice of experience here, folks!). If your coupons expire before you return with the receipt, it’s fine, since they were current when the items were purchased.
Isn’t it nice to shop at a store where they not only treat you well and value your business, but also have corporate coupon policies written on paper (instead of shifting sand)?
Turning this into a recipe site for the moment…I love spicy tuna appetizers, rolls, anything at restaurants, but hate the high cost – even with coupons it’s pricey. A few years ago I had some wonderful tuna marinade served in a glass sitting on ice with various garnishes (don’t remember that part). The ingredients were few and easy, so I started messing around. It’s basically sushi-grade tuna, that asian chili sauce with the rooster on the bottle, mayonnaise and lemon juice with or without sesame seeds as garnish. I like to serve it in leaves of belgian endive (although I’ve used small romaine leaves).
Still pricey, but I just learned something a couple of days ago when I went to the market to select my small package of $19.99/lb tuna. I asked fish guy for something for my spicy tuna recipe and he showed me the “junk” packages at $3.99/lb. It’s the oddly-shaped pieces from the shaping of the little rectangular tuna pieces. Some still have the membrane, some is odd cuts – guy said to just scrape the flesh off the membrane – which I did – and it would be fine. I’m here to tell you that it’s a wonderful idea for any fish or meat that is going to be marinated and mushed up anyway. Instead of getting a puny piece for $19.99/lb, I ended up with a large package at $3.99/lb. The membrane stuff was only a small part and my rather large dogs thought it a great treat.
Maybe I’m late to the seder, but just found this article in the Trib. Naturally I had to hear this trio for myself and my gift to you is this song: “Blame the Jews.” Check out the other songs under Sean Altman’s channel.
Now off to see what I can scrounge up for a last-minute gift for a 16 year old girl (Bieber in a box, maybe?). I’m thinking Revlon nail polish, Pond’s make-up cleansing wipes, Yardley soaps, and other appropriate stockpile selections…hmmm, maybe I should clear with PITA first, as my definition of appropriate may not be someone else’s. or anyone else’s…
