By Justin Weinger Leave a Comment

I never win anything!  Especially online.So you can imagine how excited I was when Anita at The Silver Lining selected me to win a blog award. I truly appreciate the honor! And then I won another award later in the week from Michelle at Leaving Excess. Woo Hoo!  AND THEN, I got a third award from Ginger at Coupons, Rebates and Refunds (and also of Attention Target Shoppers).  All these awards are going to go to my head!

By Justin Weinger Leave a Comment

Just visiting one of my favorite blogs "The Centsible Sawyer" and was horrified to see it's been mistakenly shut down by Google robots as a spam blog. The Centsible Sawyer is NOT a spam blog... it is a excellent resource for the latest and greatest deals and coupons, and I rarely shop without checking it. This glitch is just as much of a crisis for me as it is for the blog's author, Denise!Anyway, Denise asked her readers to spread the word that she's working on correcting this problem and hopes … [Read more...]

Today is the first birthday of my twin sons... it's hard to believe how the time has flown.A year ago, we were just coming to terms with what life with twins and a toddler would be like. Now, we're a lot more relaxed, rested, and enjoying the trials and tribulations.I look back at the year, and I am amazed at all that I've learned about myself and my kids. I've learned what works and what doesn't. And I've learned that there is still so much I don't know.So, in honor of my sons' birthday, I will … [Read more...]
