Have you ever heard of Alice.com? I admit, I had not until today.
Alice.com provides you a cost effective way to manage all of your household essentials online. (Basically, they help you budget your funds and tell you when you are running low on products!)
I am talking about thousands of products from toilet paper to band aids to trash bags.
Alice.com offers the low prices and free shipping on every order--yes, every order! (You don’t find that often!)
This is great for my household. Since I only work part-time, I have to stick to a tight budget and Alice.com allows me to manage this! With $50 a month for cleaning supplies, I would be able to purchase top brand laundry detergent, stain remover, glass cleaner, and daily shower cleaner…and still have dollars left over for room freshener or a new shade of eye shadow!
Are you still skeptical? Well, the web site even offers automatic coupons! No more searching and clipping the Sunday paper for the best deals. The site claims that the average user can save $100 annually with their automatic coupons!
Membership is free, so please set up an account today. It's simple. They first ask you how many members in your home, then you check off which products you use, and last give your information (name, address, email).
Oh, and on a last note, Alice.com Refer a Friend program (located under the "My Account" section on Alice.com). This is an affiliate program where users can give their readers $10 off once $50 is spent on the site, and then they get 3% back of the purchases for a year.

If you are anything like me, you would love a few extra dollars each month! (I mean, what girl wouldn't want more money for shoes or makeup each month, eh?) Well there is an easy, ethical, honest way to do it. Take a minute to sign up for sponsored tweets.

I have worked with Izea (the parent company of Sponsored Tweets) for over a year now , and let me assure you the company can be trusted and abides to a Code of Ethics.

Also, the business is a Better Business Bureau Accredited Business.
Oh, and get this: Izea even has many celebrities participating in the program including Sister Hazel, Leann Rimes, Kim Kardashian, and Bob Vila! Sponsored Tweets is a place were people big and small can make money tweeting.

The kids have a Little People nativity scene that I keep in the den.
I grew up loving the Peanuts gang and my mom has given me lots of Charlie Brown Christmas items over the years...
...including a 4-piece set of Snoopy Christmas dishes which I keep on the breakfast table.
