Free Disney Ticket in 2010

This is sure to be the best deal of 2010! Disney is giving the first million people that give their time to charity, a free day at Disney! You thought a free ticket on your birthday was good, well , this is so much better, because up to 8 people from the same household, can go at one time, as long as they all register and are verified as having given their time.

Registration opens on 01/01/2010 at Disneyparks.com There will be many opportunities available for volunteering, including donating blood, but only the first million get the free tickets, so register early.

If you live in Florida, Florida Blood Services announced it will be participating. You can read more about that in this article.

Have a great 2010!

Get paid for Dr. Pepper at Publix

Wow! I got a great deal on 2 liters of Dr. Pepper at Publix!

The current sale price until Wednesday is 5/$5 for Dr Pepper 2 liters. On each of the bottles was a sticker coupon for $.55 off 1 which makes it $.45 each which in itself is a great deal, but, also in one of the store flyers is a store coupon good until 10/9 for $2.00 off of 3. Now, if you buy 5 and use 1 coupon, you still get a great deal of only $.05 per bottle which is a fabulous deal.

But why pay for 5 when they'll pay you to take 6. That's right they paid me! I bought 6, used the $.55 off each one and used 2 coupons for $2.00 off 3 which earned me $1.30!

Yes, that's right I was paid by Publix $1.30 to take 6 bottles of Dr. Pepper! Now that's a Wicked Lovely Deal!

Swagbucks- easy way to earn free gifts

A friend recently turned me on to Swagbucks, and I love it!

There are a lot of sites out there that say they're free, and then turn out to be "free, if you sign up for these not so free offers." There are also sites that say how easy it is to earn, but while it is easy, it is way to time consuming.

This is not the case with Swagbucks.

Swagbucks is a search engine that operates using Google and Ask. Use it to search with and you may be rewarded with "swagbucks." You can also find hidden codes, and earn swagbucks from shopping, as well as from referrals. It's easy, fun, and free. I use it regularly as a search engine, and every once in awhile play along with Twitter challenges (just for fun.)

You very quickly earn swagbucks which are redeemable for prizes including: Amazon gift certificates, games, clothing, and even baseball cards, so there is something for everyone. The swagbucks are easy to redeem, and ship promptly.

If you are a regular user of search engines, or you like to shop online, check it out. You might earn something free, and have fun doing it.

Search & Win

Urban Decay Offers Sparkle and Savings


I love Urban Decay! (the company, not like the destruction of urban areas, that, I definitely don't like!)

Urban Decay offers some of the most fun, vivid, blendable, eye colors, and all with cool names. The main colors in my eye shadow palette are YDK, Smog, & Half Baked. With these colors, I can work in brighter colors such as Flash, Verve, and Last Call, or add sparkle with Uzi, or Chopper.

If you're looking for an eyeliner that goes on smooth & has real staying power; Urban Decay's 24/7 can not be beat.

One of my newest addictions from the Beauty world is Urban Decay's Midnight Cowboy Lotion. It's milk & honey scent smells of warm days at the beach, and the golden shimmer is just the right touch to leave you feeling sparkly pretty without looking like a Disco ball. (don't you hate when some one says "you have glitter on you." and you were going for shimmer not art project?) And the moisturizers, ahhhhhh, the moisturizers, perfect!

Now, with Urban Decay's Friends & Family discount, you can enjoy my favorites, and discover your own. Use code FNFF1 to save 30% on your Urban Decay online purchase between now and 08/20.

That's a full 10 day of wicked lovely savings!

Free Stuff on your Birthday

With my birthday rapidly approaching (it is now less than a week away,) I am now thinking not of how I will be dreadfully older, (ok, maybe I'm thinking of that a little bit, but not enough to really matter) but of all the fabulous freebies I'll be getting in the month of August, just because it's my birthday month!

Yesterday, I was going through my e-mail, and was delighted to see an e-mail from Coldstone Creamery. I had forgotten about signing up for their birthday club, so it was a nice pleasant surprise to see a coupon for a free ice cream! With Coldstone, you can sign-up everyone in your household to get a free ice cream for their birthday. The best part is: well, ok, the best part is that it's free, but the other best part is you don't have to get it on your birthday. They send the coupon by e-mail a week before your birthday, and it doesn't expire until a week after your birthday. Isn't that fabulous?! It's so easy! Now the hard part: which creation to choose. I'm thinking bananas, peanut butter & sweet cream ice cream. Yummy!

As a Beauty Insider for Sephora (their frequent shopper program, completely free to join) not only do I earn points on my purchases to be redeemed on deluxe samples throughout the year, but during my birthday month, I get a free birthday gift. Last year's free gift was a vanilla cupcake body wash; delightful! This year's freebie is a lip gloss trio. I can't wait!

While I'm at the mall getting my free lipgloss, I will also head over to Body Shop to collect my birthday gift. Body Shop is one of my favorite stores for skin care, and has one of my favorite rewards programs (and the only one, I've found worth paying for.) The Love Your Body card costs $10, but in return you get 10% off every purchase, earn points towards free products, (and ones you can actually use, since you choose the items) if you spend enough, you even get your card renewed for free, (I haven't paid for membership in 6 years!) and best of all, you get a $10 gift of your choice in your birthday month (so that's worth the cost of the card, itself.)

Normally, I would be heading down to the mall on my birthday, to celebrate with my free gifts, but this year "I'm going to Disney World!" (I've always wanted a reason to say that :o) Thanks to Disney for this year's fabulous freebie of park admission on your birthday! yippee! Splash mountain, here I come!

Free Estee Lauder Sample, Just for You

Estee Lauder will be giving away 250000 samples of Advanced Night Repair tomorrow 07/23 from 5PM - 9 PM at the Estee Lauder Counter.

I must say that, while I know this is a wicked lovely deal, and I know my mantra is always "if it's free, it's for me" I am not overly excited about this one. I realize that some of you may be huge Estee Lauder users, and I acknowledge that they are a a trustworthy, established company, but, nothing about their products appeals to me.

That's just me, so please for those of you die hard EL fans, don't take it personally, it's just that, well, ok, it's because my mother wears it, and my grandmother, too, for that matter. Everything about the Estee Lauder Counter reminds me of them, that distinctive (some may say signature) fragrance, the classic (another word for boring, in this case) colors; it's all so matronly.

Now, don't get me wrong, I love my mother (I don't always like her, but I certainly love her, sorry mom), and Gramma is great (although she can drive me absolutely crazy, but what is family for, right?), but do I want to wear what they wear? no, not really.

Next time, I'm looking in the mirror complaining about these little wrinkles that pop up overnight, and must belong to someone else, because I'm clearly not old enough to have these issues, at that moment, I'm sure I'll regret the decision I am about to make, and I'm sure I will wish I had tried this overnight repair, but right now, I know that someone else might really want the sample (someone that doesn't have issues with "signature" fragrances.)

So, with that said, I will pass on this giveaway, and leave my free sample to someone else. So, tomorrow, when you're standing in line (visions of the Clinique/Lancome class action giveaway lines awhile back) when you're standing in line think of me, and how I gave up my spot, just so you could have back some of your very important time, and be a step closer to getting your free sample that I hope you will absolutely enjoy.

Oh! and don't tell my mom, cause she'll wonder why I didn't just get the sample for her, and then she'll tell Gramma, and then...

Tim Hortons: Free Donut, Why now?

So, I used to live in Maine, right down the street from a Tim Horton's. (For you Floridians: Tim Horton's is a donut shop, much like Dunkin, but, shhhhh don't tell my Boston friends, in my opinion better.) So, I lived down the street, which was fabulous, because with New England weather (summer, not winter, burrr) it was perfect to walk over with the kids (because they were much younger and enjoyed walking places, and was actually exciting for them, and me, because I didn't have to hear "ugh why are we walking when the car works fine?" teenagers!)

So in all that time, that I lived down the street, not once, I repeat, not once did they have anything for free. But now, now that I am certainly not in walking distance, and there is not even one in my state (Florida) or even in the southern region (not a fact, there may be one somewhere in the south, though highly unlikely given the distance from Canada where Tim Horton's originated) now, now they have something for free! Why? Why now?

So for all of you New Englanders, and other areas lucky enough to have a Tim Horton's, make sure to stop by tomorrow 07/21 from 6-10 AM, and try one of their new Blueberry Glazed, or Blueberry Bloom donuts for free.

And while your eating it, know that somewhere there is a very jealous redhead longing for the blueberry glazed.

If only I could get time off for a road trip...

Another Month, Another Free Chocolate

Yesterday, while at the mall, I realized that it was indeed a new month since my last free chocolate from Godiva. So I ran over to my Godiva store! Fought through the crowd of people also getting their free chocolate, and...stood there, staring... Ok, so there really wasn't a crowd of people, it was more like one asking a question...and I really didn't run, me run?! are you kidding me?! but I did casually walk into Godiva, and I did stop and stare, because, they have just too many options!

So, after much thought I finally decided on a piece of white chocolate with vanilla white chocolate ganach. I handed the nice chocolate lady (chocolate because she was selling chocolate, not because she was chocolate; just for clarification) my godiva gold card, and, she, handed me: my chocolate in a nice little bag, which I quickly tossed in the garbage; the bag not the chocolate, sorry to my green friends, but not sure how to reuse that one.

It was that simple, no high pressure sales, no: "how come you're not buying something else?" or "what else?" with a look to make you feel guilty for walking away with just a free chocolate. After all, why should I feel guilty, they put the program together. Even if their goal is to boost their sales, they said I could have free chocolate. Just a quick, free transaction, that's all it took. So with free chocolate this simple, why wasn't there a crowd waiting for free chocolate?! This is good stuff! and free! every month! They don't even send a bunch of junk mail to your e-mail! and if you do decide to buy something, you get points towards more free chocolate! So what are you waiting for?! sign-up, and get your free monthly chocolate.

Hmmm....So what flavor will I get next month?

I'm normally about the free samples, you can get, free coupons, great savings, etc.. but today, I'm excited about this free service called Nabbit. What a great idea!

Have you ever been listening to the radio, and thought "wow I like that song, I'll have to remember to get it" or "what the heck, is the name of that song? I love it!" or maybe a commercial comes on and you didn't catch the number, website, etc.. Well now, you can just Nabbit. All you have to do is register at Nabbit.com and you can then send a quick text with the station you are listening to, and they will text the song title, commercial info, etc, back to you. It will also be saved in your Nabbit account for later. You can then purchase the song from any number of popular music sites that Nabbit is linked to (itunes, walmart, etc.) What a great service, and it's not just for radio, you can use it with TV, youtube, and more.

Want a cool free shirt from Nabbit? Just link your free Nabbit account to either Facebook, or Twitter, and "nabb" one song (again, totally free unless you have text charges) and they will send you a request for what size shirt you want. What a deal! A great service for free, and a free T-Shirt!

I just finished my delicious spring raspberry truffle, mmmmm. Can't wait til next month. What will I have? coconut, caramel, strawberry...

Buying Coupons Online- for Savings and Freebies

Buying coupons online is a great way to save money. Ebay is a great place to purchase coupons that you use frequently. Thanks to Wicked Cool Deals for this great article on buying grocery coupons online.

I would also like to add that while you are looking for coupons on E-Bay, don't forget to also look for other than grocery coupons (clothing, coffee, homegoods.)

I frequently purchase Kohls coupons on E-bay from a reputable seller. (I recently bought 20 for $2) These $5 off a $5 purchase result in me getting some great items for free. The key is to shop the clearance section with these coupons and since you can only use one coupon at a time, check out when your items total the $5 minimum. Then just go back and buy again. It takes a little extra time, but for the free shirts, I've gotten my daughter, she is very appreciative, and it's worth the effort.

Another good coupon to purchase on E-Bay is 10% off Lowes. These coupons can save you up to $500 each. If you prefer to shop at Home Depot, just take the coupon there and they'll honor it.

Watch for Victoria's Secret coupons, NY&Co, as well as, Lane Bryant. all good stores that offer great savings coupons.

E-Bay is a great marketplace for coupons of all kinds, and gift certificates too. So get out there, place a bid, and Save.

You're Lucky to Have a Friendly's, Especially Today!

As the product of divorced parents that lived 1800 miles away from each other (after divorce, obviously not during marriage, although that would be impressive) I had the pleasure of school in Florida and summers in New Hampshire. I would often return from summer, still disappointed that not only was Florida hot as hell ( I mean really, could hell be any hotter than the natural sauna that is the sunshine State?!) but they also didn't have all the fabulous places to eat that they do in New Hampshire. As an adult, I now know that there are some great places to eat in the Tampa area, my mom just wasn't taking me to any of them.

Today, once again I find myself missing that great northern chain restaurant with some of the best ice cream, Friendly's! so for those of you with a Friendly's in your area, please enjoy a free ice cream for me. For 5 very special hours, 12-5 today, Friendly's will be giving away a free single scoop cone or dish of ice cream (I say go with the cone, it's like getting something extra for free.) So head on down, fight off a few people trying to cut you in line, and then relax and enjoy ice cream that is not only free, but also only available to the lucky elite who live near a Friendly's.

Free Donuts and a Touch of History

It's finally here, the day I've been waiting for. It's National doughnut day! As if we need any excuse to eat those fabulous sweet fried treats.

National doughnut day (always the first Friday in June) honors the Salvation Army ladies that volunteered in WWI. On the front line in 1917, the first Salvation Army donut was served. It was most likely cooked in oil inside the metal helmet of an american soldier. These brave women were often on the front line serving up food, and some much needed morale.

So in honor of this special day make sure to treat yourself to a sweet pastry with a hole in the middle. Low on cash? You can still take part in the festivities. Dunkin Donuts will give you one free donut with the purchase of any beverage. Participating Krispy Kreme stores will give one free donut per person. Make sure to check your favorite local donut shop for any other offers.

Have a yummy day!

Sunday Sales Tips & Free Samples

It's Sunday morning, and what that means is...New Sales! As most everyone knows, American stores run their sales from Sunday through Saturday, and some stores have recently begun running special 2 day sales for Sunday-Monday. Knowing this can save you a lot of money.

So as a Sunday ritual, I sit down at the computer to look at all of my favorite stores' flyer, (why waste the money on a paper when you can look on-line) including the drug stores in my area. I jot down who is having what sales on a sticky note to later stick to my coupon envelope (otherwise, I'd forget it at home) . By using coupons only where something is on sale, I am able to get huge savings and often even walk away with things for free.

Many stores ( Target, CVS, Walgreens)are now offering printable in-store coupons. Make sure to check these before you go shopping, and pay special attention to the top of the coupon. It may very well be a manufacturer's coupon. If this is the case, you are not limited to use it at the store you printed it from, and instead can use it at the store having the sale. And don't forget: you can use a store coupon and a manufacturer's coupon together, even on a sale item!

When I began my ritual this morning, I came across some great samples from the CVS site. Check them out and Happy saving!

How to be a Product Tester

Have you ever wondered who tests new products for companies? and how do you get tobe one of those people? Well' it's people just like you and me. But you have to know where to look. They won't come looking for you (ok maybe on the off chance that you have one of those Pretty Woman moments where you're in the right place, at the right time, and some rich guy just happens to..)

Many companies offer an opportunity for you to become a part of their testing panel. You get to try the product for free, and some even pay you for your time. Of course, you won't get rich doing it, but at least you'll get some free stuff, and have a chance to express your opinion.

So where do you look? Try the forums on Freebie sites such as Dealtaker, Freestufftimes, and Volition. There are a lot more out there but these are good to get you started. Also, check your favorite magazines. All You, and Allure have reader panels that often send out surveys and free products. Don't rule out checking your favorite companies websites, thay may have a link to sign up right on their page.

Just remember; your opinion is valuable, you should never have to pay to be part of a database, or to get a list of companies. all the information is out there, and it's free.

Here's a couple to get you started:

Become a Nailene Product tester.

Become a Thymes tester

good luck!

Build it, and they will come?

So you've decided what you're selling. You've registered your domain, and your page is up and ready to go. Build it and they will come, right? Wrong!

Starting an online business may seem like a simple task, but starting the business, and creating the web page is only the beginning. In order to earn money to pay for your efforts, you must drive people to your site. This doesn't mean you have to take out a second mortgage to pay for the marketing. There are many ways you can advertise absolutely free. Try some of these.

First, if you're not using social networking, you're missing out. Sites like Facebook, Twitter, and MySpace were designed to keep you connected with current friends, and help you make new ones. Well, as a new business, that's exactly what you need: friends! Getting your name out there is simple. Just post, post post. Also, try some of the lesser known sites such as: LinkedIn, Stumbleupon, Bebo or just search social networking, and see what you find.

Another great way to get some free advertising is to search for local community websites that offer free listings in there directory. For example: If you are a retailer in Central Florida you can be listed on localshops1 so shoppers may find you. Check in your area, you never know what you may find.

Don't rule out message board sites as a means of communicating what you have to offer. Check out Craigslist, and local newspaper sites to see what people are talking about. Just make sure your listing is appropriate to the conversation, and that you are folowing posting guidelines.

The important thing to remember is that it is up to you to get your name out there. You will need to invest your time, but when you're getting started, time is usually a lot easier to come by than money.
