There are some really good coupons out right now and many of them are high value. 

I don't know about you...but i can never have enough scrubbing bubbles in my stockpile. I just will not settle for any other cleaner. This has been my favorite forever. Love the scent, love how it cuts through dirt and grime and most of all i love getting it at a discounted price.

Another Big company who thinks they can win!!!!

Good Evening!!! It has been a while since my last post...only because I have been so busy with the thing called life :)

I felt it was time for some serious conversation....
How many of you (my followers) are hard working women, homemakers, moms, grandmas who are trying to make every penny stretch? I'm guessing 90% of you are in one way or another.

Today I went to the grocery store as usual to pick up a local newspaper or two (I try to buy a few in anticipation of finding some really good coupon inserts) . I purchased my newspapers and headed home. Upon opening up my papers i see there are 3 inserts included (the more the better right?) Well in a way this was nice but then i open up the P&G insert only to find that there are no coupons for my favorite laundry detergent!! Yes...believe it or not they have purposely left them out. Instead of an actual coupon they place a non-coupon in there with a link to their website asking you to go here and print one...yes i said only one. 

For a company who has been around for many years to pull such a thing is just mind boggling.
For one...i am sure they pay for this (non-coupon) to be printed and published. And two...they do not take into consideration their loyal consumers. Some of us may not have access to a printer, some may not even understand the internet...such as elderly people and most of all those who buy enough for their family to get by on for a month or two. Who uses one coupon? 

I have written several emails to P&G with my concerns about this only to receive an email back stating that they can not help me out but instead send me a coupon for my favorite product. It is very obvious that they are not concerned with our complaints...or....they are not getting enough complaints to begin with.

We as consumers can make or break a company really fast if we all ban together and voice our opinions.

I urge you to write or call them up and voice your opinion to this matter because if you sit back silently...big companies like this will win and we lose.

They need to know that people like me and i am sure you too use coupons to buy their products in hopes of stretching our hard earned dollar. Without coupons and access to them eventually their products will stop selling and this can mean stores and especially small stores will see less profit.

Let them know that what they are doing is hurting everyone in the long run because I for one will not pay full price if i don't have to. I will eventually buy another product all together.

Sometimes we just need a little help!!

We have all been there!! There are those occasional nights when you feel so sleepy only to find that when you finally get into your bed and get all comfortable you just can not fall asleep!! you toss, you turn, you position your pillows over and over and yet still find yourself wide awake.

The makers of ZzzQuil understands your struggle. They have created a product that not only helps you get that much needed sleep, but also helps you wake up refreshed.

I am not one to take a pill unless i know it is going to work AND is safe to take.

ZzzQuil has proven to be both!! I tried it, i liked it and I will definitely be using again when the occasion arises. I took 2 of these amazing purple pills and surprisingly got a really good nights sleep. About 8 hours later I awoke feeling refreshed, energized and not a bit groggy . My only complaint was how long it took for it to work...but that could be just my experience...who knows? I do however like the fact that it is an over the counter product and not prescription.

I highly recommend this product to anyone who ever has troubles falling asleep as it really does work effectively and is safe to take regularly..no side effects as far as i can see :)

I received a sample of  #ZzzQuil for testing purposes thanks to Influenster . All opinions are my own

Healthy Eating Week!!!!!!!!!!!

Since I have started clean eating I have noticed many awesome changes!! The most important one being that I feel soooo much better. I noticed that I have more energy, less fatigue and fewer tummy problems. Yes, tummy problems!!

The way they process our foods today can really have a negative effect on your tummy. Ever notice that when you eat a certain food your tummy gets crampy, gassy or just straight out nauseated? Well you are not alone! I used to get gassy really bad...not knowing why I would just let it pass not giving it a second thought...until one dreaded day when i awoke to theee worst pain in my abdomen. I am talking PAIN!!!!!!! which eventually sent me to the ER.

Once there I learned that i had blockage in my small intestine. Scary right? Well after a whole lot of research I learned that this is common in many people and all caused by the foods we eat.

I am proud to say that since I have stopped eating so much of those foods I am now finding myself pain free..yes..........And I embrace it!!

Now you are probably thinking ugghhhh but I love pizza and cookies and even ice cream!! Well guess what? I do too :) I just have a healthier way of enjoying these foods. Pinterest is a site where you can discover all sorts of recipes, tips, ideas and help! There are a limitless amount of recipes here for clean eating and they DO include our favorite foods but with a healthier way of making them.

Today I am sharing one of my faves: Cauliflower Pizza Crust!! yummmm!!  This cheesy cauliflower pizza crust is, dare I say it, is even better than bread!!

Understanding Walgreens!

I am not a walgreens shopper but when i do go there i find this tutorial very helpful!!! Walgreens rewards program can be quite confusing!!


Are you wasting your hard earned money?







When you go shopping do you really plan out your trip by creating a shopping list? counting inventory and clipping coupons? If you answered no to any of these you are wasting money!! Every penny counts in this day and time. Prices have gone up and incomes are dwindling in today's economy.

I learned many years ago how to make my paycheck go further and the first step is to be aware of how and what i buy. For example...I used to buy hand soap in those little dispensers...thinking they were so cheap that i could just buy several at a time. But in reality it is wiser to buy a bigger bottle of the refill and fill my own dispensers. Costs around $4.00 normally at walmart and it goes a long way.

Always write down what you really need for your pantry instead of blindly buying items just to realize you had some tucked in the back!! my daughter would do this all the time!! It really pays off to know how many cans of soup or boxes of cereal are actually in the pantry before buying more.

Coupons, coupons and more coupons!! I never ever buy anything without first checking to see if there is a coupon for it. And with so many outlets available to acquire them...there is no excuse not to have them!! There are sites such as coupons.com , redplum.com and also newspaper inserts that offer coupons. and let's not forget about rewards cards and apps!! 

I plan on getting into the rewards and apps in another post as I am just now learning the ropes on how they actually work. 

So how do you shop? Do you see any savings? What apps do you use?? Feel free to comment below so that others can benefit from your wisdom :)

I just love being an influenster!!

Have you ever been in a store and noticed something new on the shelves such as a new beauty product or even a new food item and thought hmmm i wonder if these are good or not? Afraid to purchase it in fear of trying it out and not liking it? I used to do this a lot until I became a member of INFLUENSTER :)

First let me explain what Influenster is: This is a site where not only can you read REAL reviews written by REAL people on just about everything from cosmetics to appliances, etc. but also are given the opportunity to actually try out new products.

Members of this site get the chance of receiving a box (voxbox is what they call it) which is filled with many neat products in return they must write reviews and share their opinions of each product they receive. You might be thinking right now that this seems tedious but I assure you it is actually enjoyable to do. There are so many fun activities to do related to the products you receive that it really does not seem like work at all. For example they may ask you to post a picture of yourself using the product and simply post it on social media. Also for each task you complete you are given the chance at winning prizes from that certain brand as well. AND for each task you complete you will receive a badge as well. The more badges you earn the more chances you have at being chosen for the next box of goodies! Sounds exciting huh??

I have been a member of INFLUENSTER for 2 years now and have received quite a few sample boxes! It is always a thrill to see that I have been chosen for a certain campaign and I really do enjoy completing all of the tasks they ask of me.

Here is a sneak peek at what my dashboard looks like. On here you will find all of the currently running campaigns going on and what is required of you to complete each one. I find myself visiting this often as I am always looking for the next exciting campaign to come. 




The very best part of all of this is voicing my opinion and also reading what others have to say about it. Reviews are a vital part of my research when deciding on a purchase and this site has been a big help in that area. Reviews written by real people who are NOT paid for their reviews is critical to me as i know they are honest and unbiased.

Have i peaked your curiosity yet?? Well there is so much more to share with you!!

Do you like apps? Influenster also has that!! yes... it is the #Influensterapp . take a look 


By having the #Influenster App you can have access to it 24/7 on your smartphone (unfortunately only apple itunes has this available right now) patiently waiting for android version...but anyhow I absolutely love love love this site!! 

Are you on social media?? such as twitter, facebook, instagram?? This also helps! The more you share the higher your influence is :) Here is what my score looks like:

My impact score is fairly high because i have accounts on almost all of social media and i share often on them all. The more you share the higher it gets.

I am very pleased with all of the voxboxes i have received and look forward to many more :) I highly recommend this if you are looking for a fun and easy way to try out new products and are interested in giving feedback on them as well. I guarantee you will love being a part of the influenster nation!! Go ahead...go check it out and while you are there you might as well join :) No better time than right now! Let me know what you think by leaving me a comment...

This video never gets old!! This here is my baby sister. This was her lovely wedding in which she married her best friend, true love, first love Danny giotto .

They have been married now for 4 years and right now she is battling colon cancer :( It really makes me sad to know that she is going through such hard times and all I wish is for her to be free of it all. I love this girl with all my heart!

If you are reading this post please, please say a little prayer for her. I strongly believe that she will win this ugly war with the help of family and friends and awesome fans like you :)
