Day 24 Summer Blog challenge: Favorite eco-friendly thing to do
This is a hard one because I always try to be eco friendly. I’m going to have to say that my favorite is reusing the tons of newspapers I buy every month. You know as a deals blogger I buy the paper for the coupon inserts but I’ll admit I read only a few stories from it and I have a lot of left over paper. I feel guilty tossing that much away but of course whatever is left over goes to recycling. It used to be, before moving, that I would use it in my garden beds as mulch but since moving to an apartment I’m not able to…

Just Eyewear Giveaway
When we think about things that we are grateful for, we consider things such as food, shelter, family, friends, jobs, health, etc. but vision is something we make overlook (literally!). Eye exams and glasses are not exactly the cheapest things in the world and vision insurance coverage is not always offered. I consider vision to be an important part of health because many of us need to see (or at least want to!). When I received the opportunity to try out a pair of eye glasses from Just Eyewear, I was pretty excited. Even though I don’t need corrective lenses, I like attempting to look ‘smart’. I…
