Thrifty Tips for February 9th

Photobucket




WEBSITE


I have mentioned this to several people I know, but I haven't really shared it during thrifty tips.  I LOVE EBATES.   Ebates.com is a shopping site where you can earn while you buy.  Sign up for an account for free with Ebates.com, and when you shop at their participating store, you can get cash back quarterly.  Ebates.com also has discount codes too.  You wont find all your stores there, but you'd be surprised at what you do find.  For example, my husband and I like to purchase colognes and perfumes through Fragrance.net.  If we order our perfumes at Fragrance.net but first go through Ebates.com, not only will we get a great price on perfume, but we also will get a percentage of our purchase price back!  Right now that percentage is 12%!  Shopping through Ebates.com does not change the price of the item, it just gives you an added benefit of cash back.  Here is a small list of just a few of the other online stores you can shop at and get money back:  Kmart, Kohls, Red Envelope, Barnes & Noble, New Egg, Bath & Body Works, Gamestop and many, many more.  Check them out at the link below.  Oh, you can also get money for referring friends.  I think it is like $5 per friend.  I am not using a referral code here.  You can just head on over.  :)

Valentine's Day is coming soon, and really even if you feel it was a  holiday created for merchants, it is an awesome time to remember to tell and show the people in your life that you love them.  You also do not have to break the bank to do it, though I must admit, I sure do appreciate a little blingage here and there.  Here are a few things I found that you can make or do to share the love.  :)


Vintage Spool Valentine - I found this absolutely dear and sweet craft at FaveCrafts.com where it was highlighted.  Thanks to their crediting Maize Hutton and a dash over to Flickr, I was able to locate the fabulous blog where it was originally posted.  This is absolutely a sweet way to pass a love note onto one of your loved ones.  Go follow this link, and the picture is all it is going to take to convince you.

Let's face it, cutie flowered pins are not for everyone, but I do not know of many people who do not LOVE chocolate covered or dipped strawberries.  Follow the link below for a simple recipe, and remember that there are lots of strawberries on sale.  Here are a couple of tips:  Dipping the strawberries can sometimes cause stems to break so feel free to also spoon and ladle chocolate over the strawberries and use a tooth pick to hold them during the process.

Love Coupons.  All you need is a printer for these dolls, and honestly if you don't have a printer, you can pick up some nice paper at the store and hand write some nice coupons to give to your spouse. These coupons of course are also great for the kids to give to mom and dad too, because you add the gift value.  Love, Actually blog has some great printables for this as well as ideas to put on your coupons.  Follow the link below to head over to their blog.
