Introducing My Other Half

Over the next few months, my wife, Sarah, is going to write some entries about saving money. She does a great job shopping sales and using coupons while not being fanatical about it. This is stuff that would work for a single person or someone planning for an entire household. She will be happy to answer any questions that you may have about stores, shopping, coupon policies, internet coupons, etc. This is just another way to save a little here and there, adding up to a lot over time.

Several months ago, Walmart was running a set of commercials encouraging the viewer to compare his normal grocery bill with a similar shopping trip to Walmart. Sarah was pretty sure that her method of shopping was superior, so she took the challenge. After confirming that her savvy skills were saving us tons of money she wrote her story and sent it in to Harris Teeter. They decided it was interesting enough and made a commercial out of it.

Oh yeah, and Harris Teeter rewarded Sarah's money-saving skills and store loyalty with free groceries. It got us an extra 8 weeks of savings!

'12 Camaro ZL1

This car is from the 2013 Hot Wheels HW Showroom series. The 12 Camaro ZL1 is 192/250. This is a really nice tampo. It is red with a Red Team Hot Wheels logos and red wheels. I really like this styling.

2013 Matchbox Batmobile

This is the 2013 Matchbox Batmobile 10 of 120. It is the same casting as the 2012 Batmobile but in grey. From the MBX Adventure City series.

'09 Corvette ZR1

This is the 2013 Hot Wheels '09 Corvette ZR1 202/250. This is not a $uper Trea$ure Hunt.

iRazoo

iRazoo is a lot like the Swagbucks program. You get points for completing Offers, using Coupons, playing Games, watching Videos, and so on. You even get points just for going to the Offers and Video pages.

The fastest way to get points is to watch videos. Each video is worth one point, with no daily limit, and you can rewatch the same video. Here's a short one to get you started.

All the gift cards are (600p/$1), generally in increments of $5.
