Toddler World

A look into the life of 3 small kids and their parents

~MOMMY MONDAYS~

A nursery rhyme for my mommy friends
(and those other readers who enjoy a good deal)

There was a young woman

Who needed some shoes.

She had so many children

She didn’t know what to do. (OK, not really–but it felt like it!)

She had a tight budget

With not much to spare.

But the children’s feet kept growing–

They didn’t seem to care!

She searched and searched for deals

Without any luck.

She knew they were out there–

she just had to look.

But “patience is a virtue”, you know;

So she waited a bit.

And what do you suppose…..

On her recent trip to Target

She found just what she needed!

And she couldn’t contain her surprise….

She got not 3, not 4, but 5 pairs of shoes

For $17.85!!!!

(See, mommas–it pays to search the clearance racks! Target shoe clearance has never failed me!! I got one toddler’s snowboots for next year, a pair of cowboy boots for an upcoming birthday, and 3 pairs of shoes for now! PTL!)

An easy $10……

Hey everyone–I posted about my favorite online shopping site awhile ago. I just received my $15 check today for shopping through them (I think I made 4 purchases), and saw that until Sept. 15th, you can receive $10 for signing up and making a purchase! Plus anyone you refer will receive $10 and so will you! I am all about “free money” so I just wanted to encourage you all to try it. :-)
I need a book and some pictures from Snapfish, so I am off to shop and save!!!!

A little advertising never hurt…..

My hubby has become addicted to saving us money (not a bad thing to be addicted to, right?!) and as a result has interested me in several avenues of cheap shopping. One that I absolutely LOVE is Ebates. We buy quite a few things on-line (it is easier than driving 45 miles to shop for gifts, etc.) and this is the perfect place to buy stuff and get some cash back. I have already earned $15.20 in just a few months!!! It is really easy to sign up and you don’t have to give any personal info. When you sign up, I get $5 after your first purchase, you get $5 just for signing up, and you can also refer people and earn even more money!! The biggest thing is remembering to go through Ebates’ site in order to earn the money. I forget all of the time–in fact, I just ordered prints at Snapfish and could have earned 10% back for going
through Ebates :-( So all of you computer-savvy women out there (well, men too, if you are reading this)….you should sign up and start saving!
If you decide to try it out, please use my referral link:
http://www.ebates.com/rf.do?id=32898824
so I can earn $5 for signing you up, and you will earn $5 just for signing up!!! My e-mail address is oregongirl77 at charter dot net.
Have fun shopping (and let me know how much you earn!)
