Win a Kitsch’n Glam Retro Owl Tote or Handbag

I’ve told you guys before about my love of all things owl I don’t know what draws me to them… But I have a ton of owl jewelry, an owl cookie jar, an owl vase, owl soap dispenser. Abby has owl dishware in her play kitchen, a snuggly owl pillow, and a little “baby owl” Beanie Baby that she adores. So, when I found out that there was an owl-themed giveaway event coming up, not only did I know I would HAVE to enter every giveaway – I also knew that I wanted to join in the fun and give away a prize too!

New Year’s Resolution #Giveaway – Win a FitBit Zip!!

New year, new you! – You’ve heard this a million times before, right? Well, this year I’m really committing to making some big health changes, and finally getting my pre-baby booty back again. When I followed the Nutrisystem diet  for 3 months at the beginning of 2012, I lost a little over 20 pounds. One thing that kept me accountable was posting a weekly weigh-in photo on this site – It really helps you skip that second cookie when you know you’ll be showing the scale photo in a few days! I’m going to be starting those soon {stay tuned} – and to kick things off, I’ve got a rockin’ giveaway for you. Check it out…

Are You Prepared for Mom-Emergencies?

Are you ready for a major emergency?... Everyone by now has heard about the crazy-chaos in the New York area after major-storm Sandy last month. As a West Coaster, up here in Washington State, I didn’t even know until recently that there are a lot of people on the East Coast who have to do major prep for even regular storms during the winter. Here, we don’t have generators, we don’t stockpile food or supplies {unless we’re big-time couponers}, and we don’t have to worry about power outages for more than a very rare hour or two. But now that I have friends on the East Coast, the whole idea of preparing a little more thoroughly for emergencies has stuck with me. And, as a busy mom – preparing for disaster is kind of my middle name, right? [Read more…]

What’s the Roo found for you? ™ Blue Kangaroo is a personal search engine for deals. Tell it what brands and products you’re looking for, and the Roo will start scouring the deal universe for the best offers to match. Through Web and mobile applications, Blue Kangaroo’s mission in life is to make sure you always get the right offer at the right time.

“The Roo” is already monitoring deals from most major brands, flash sales, daily deals, loyalty programs, and even lots of local offers, too. It displays offers in a colorful format that’s fun to browse, kind of like Pinterest. With the Roo, you can…

  • Explore the deal universe
  • Follow offers from any brand or product you like
  • De-clutter your inbox. Convert all of the marketing emails you’re currently getting in your Yahoo or Gmail personal inbox into just one crisp email every morning, letting you preview all of them quickly at a glance – a big time saver. (Note: this marketing-inbox service is strictly optional for contest entrants.)

Helping others this holiday – The Roo is new startup designed by a small community of deal-lovers, many of them formerly from Yahoo. They have a strong commitment to helping others. During December, for example, Blue Kangaroo’s commission from all purchases by new members who elect to do so will be 100% donated to their choice of charity, including American Red Cross, American Cancer Society, and the United Way. A great time to get acquainted with Blue Kangaroo!
