Nourish Your Inner Goddess Giftpack Giveaway

 CLOSED

Congrats Beth!

The following giveaway is brought to you by Yoplait and MyBlogSpark.

MyBlogSpark and Yoplait sent me the following---and I get to give one away to you all as well! It's the "Nourish your inner goddess" Giftpack:

Inner Goddess

The entire premise of this giveaway is to get you all interest in Yoplait Greek Yogurt....and you definitely should be interested, it is AWESOME.

If you know me (which most of you don't know me in real life, but that's okay) you know I LOVE yogurt. Love it. Like, it's second to chocolate for me and I am sure you all know how much I love chocolate. I am very picky about my yogurt and I have to say that this yogurt is very, very good. It comes in 4 flavors--Strawberry, Blueberry, Vanilla Honey and Plain. I tried the Strawberry and the Vanilla Honey, they were both great.

Greek Yogurt has a different consistency than regular yogurt, but it is very, very good. I highly suggest you try the new Yoplait Greek Yogurt.

To enter this giveaway.....all you need to do is tell me the following (leave a comment)

What flavor of yogurt is your favorite? It doesn't have to be from the above flavors, it can be any. Mine is Mixed Berry.

Make sure you leave your contact info in your comments and good luck!

This giveaway closes on April 2,2010 at 11:59 PM. I will draw a winner on April 3, 2010.

This Little Piggy.... (Piggy Paint Giveaway!)

                                                                         CLOSED
 
                                                              CONGRATS KENDRA!


I painted Molly's toenails. This is huge coming from someone who wouldn't even paint her own toenails while pregnant because she was worried about the fumes. I felt good about it though because I painted them with Piggy Paint, whose tagline is "Natural As Mud".

Piggy Paint sent me their "Forever Fancy" color and their "Low Odor, No Acetone, Hypoallergenic"  nail polish remover. They have colors ranging from "Mac N Cheese, Please" to "Angel Kisses".

Molly is a squirmy worm, so in order to paint her toes I put her in the Bumbo seat and gave her something to keep her entertained. She still managed to grab hold of my hair and rip it out, but I did get both of her feet done.

Below is the result:

 I LOVE it! I smile every time I look at her little toes, they are so cute! Since I have painted them she has had a bath, a shower with me, has crawled all over the place and worn socks/boots---the polish hasn't chipped or faded. I tried out the remover on one of her toes (and repainted it, because I didn't really want to remove it) and it wiped right off.

If you were considering painting your little girls nails and didn't because of the fumes, I highly recommend using piggy paint to do it. You will love it---it was a great experience for us!

Now---on to the giveaway. Piggy Paint has offered to give one of you a $15.00 giftcard to their website.

Here is how you enter (leave an additional comment for each entry)

Mod MomME KeyFob Giveaway!

CLOSED

Congrats to #30---Heather!

I won a Mod MomME Keyfob a while back through Twitter. When I checked out her store, I instantly fell in love with all of the patterns she had for her KeyFobs. I had SUCH a hard time picking out the KeyFob I wanted because they were all so cute.

Eventually I decided on a Houndstooth KeyFob to go with my Houndstooth winter coat (See below for pics) and I LOVE IT!

 Mod MomME doesn't just sell Keyfobs, she also sells supercute:

• WipeME N DipeME Clutches
• Clutch Purses,Nursing Covers
• Porta Poo Bags
• Nursing Clips
• Bib/Stroller Clips
• Paci Clips
• Tissue cozy key chains

I love my Keyfob because it fits in my pocket easily, and it also makes it so I don't lose my keys. I am the queen of losing things, so anything that's big enough/bright enough for me to find it easily, but also small enough to fit in my pocket is ideal.

I contacted Kristen and she is letting me give a Keyfob away to you guys!

I am going to make it super easy for you to enter this giveaway.

Here are the ways you can enter:

1. (Mandatory) Go to Mod MomME's etsy shop (http://www.etsy.com/shop/modmomME) and pick out the Keyfob you would choose if you win. Leave a comment saying which one you want.

Here are the ways you can get an extra entry. You can do just one, all or none! Leave a comment for each separate entry:
2. Follow @ModMomME on Twitter (Put your twitter name in your comment)
3. Fan MomMomME on Facebook
4. Follow my savings blog (the blog you're on) via google friendconnect
5. Follow my savings blog on Twitter (@Onlinebabydeals)
6. Tweet about this giveaway. Copy and Paste this: "I just entered to win a Keyfob from @modmomME from @onlinebabydeals & @MollyandMommy at http://mollyandmommy.blogspot.com"

This giveaway ends on March 1, 2010 at 11:59 PM. I will draw a winner with Random.org on March 2, 2010.

Good Luck!

Saving Money is Easy....Kind Of

The amount you are able to save with couponing and other things depends on how much time you are willing to put into finding savings you will actually use on things you already buy.

I am a "bad" money saver. I am not willing to buy generics and compromise taste/quality. I prefer to find coupons for things I would actually buy in the first place, not just use coupons for things I don't necessarily like just because they're cheap.

That said, how does one go about finding coupons for things they want to buy? Your BEST bet is to go directly to the manufacturers website. They will always have the best coupons. If there aren't coupons on their site, email them and tell them how much you like their products. I did this with Huggies and they sent me $5.00 worth of coupons---not too bad for 5 minutes of my time.

Here is how you get coupons for the following places in the mail (to get more coupons, sign up under your maiden and married name and use a couple addresses if possible)

Bummas Product Review and Giveaway

***CLOSED***

Congrats to #18 LCW!

Bummas very kindly sent me a sample of their wild-ones cloth baby wipes to review. When I first received them I was kind of skeptical, wondering how often I would actually use them. However, after using them for just one day, I realized how often I really could use them---and the many things they could be used for.

According to Bummas website, these are their uses:

• Avert the squirt when changing diapers.
• Thoroughly dry baby after cleaning up.
• Convenient shoulder armor for burping and feeding.
• Take them with you for quick clean-ups.
• So soft and supple, it's perfect for their little noses.
• Great for baths as a baby wash cloth!

I used the Bummas that were sent to me for 2 weeks and washed them numerous times. I used them for all of the uses mentioned on the website and they worked great for every single use mentioned.

I used to leave Molly without a diaper for a little while after a diaper change, which almost inevitably ended up in me getting peed on. With her Bummas I could dry her bum off and put her diaper on right away without worrying about diaper rash.

They're a great size for using as a burp cloth. Molly doesn't normally spit up on me--she spits up all over herself and these were perfect for cleaning her up. They also are the perfect size for using as a wash cloth in the tub--and I found them to be thicker and nicer to use than my standard wash cloths!

All in all, I highly recommend these. They help you avoid the use of baby powder, avoid diaper rash and they have many uses.

Now--on to the giveaway!

Winner will win one set of Bummas in your choice of colors. You can choose from any of the colors on the site.

You have two ways to enter this giveaway.

1.  Go to http://www.bummas.com/ and leave a comment letting me know what color set you would like

This giveaway ends on 2/24/2010 at 11:59 PM. I will draw a winner the morning of 2/25/2010.

Good luck!
