How to get Sweet Deals AND Raise Money for Your School!

Do you like getting amazing deals on family-friendly products? Do you like supporting your kids school? Hmmm…. I bet the answer to both is yes, right? :)

Then take a minute to go sign up to get Mamapedia Sweet Deals. Read a bit more here,

“Each day, Mamapedia will email you a Sweet Deal especially for busy moms and their families — for family-friendly restaurants, family entertainment, kids activities, fun places for a Mom’s Night Out, and much more. Offers are tailored to your geographical region, so you’ll benefit from great local deals that you can really use!”

I get these daily Sweet Deal emails, and the selection that they offer is awesome. Super fun stuff, always. I’ve also made a couple purchases through Mamapedia, and love their customer service.

Like getting the Sweet Deal wasn’t enough, Mamapedia also donates 5% of your purchase to the school or preschool of your choice through the Mamapedia Savings for Schools Program!

The fine print… To get one of these Sweet Deals, the offer has to “tip”. Read on,

“We’ve partnered with some of the area’s top businesses and providers to offer fun, family-friendly products and services. By guaranteeing a minimum number of purchases for our partner businesses, we’re able to get the best possible deals that are much lower than any other you might find elsewhere.”

What this means is that, you’ll get an email with the daily deal, and you just click the button that you want to buy it. Then, at the end of the day, if enough people have clicked, the deal is approved, and you get your certificate. This is why I love to share Mamapedia with others… The more people see these deals, the more deals we all get. I’ve only had a deal not “tip” one time…. But, the more, the merrier!

I say certificate, because most deals are things like todays Sweet Deal: $30 worth of product at SpeakNicely.com for $15. (I actually just bought this one today!)

“Most moms have doled out that age-old bit of wisdom: “If you don’t have anything nice to say…” With today’s Sweet Deal, your children’s apparel can do the talking for them, at half the price. SpeakNicely offers dozens of comfortable, durable designs printed with positive, uplifting messages.”

The t-shirts are seriously so cute, and so positive. This is what I mean by the selection of products being so awesome… I never would have found this company on my own!

So, check it out today, and start getting Sweet Deals yourself, and earn money for your little one’s school too!!

Sweet Deals from Mamapedia is here! Save up to 90% on one Sweet Deals every day. Signing up for Sweet Deals is FREE! Click Here!

Free Mom-Approved Movie Night!

This looks like such a great idea! Family Values Cinema is now offering Family Movie Night Packages, and you can get your first one FREE.

Family Value Cinema

This sounded like a really cool idea, but I am always skeptical of new “free” offers, so I did some digging around for the details… And I was happily surprised to see that it really is a legit deal :)

Here is a little more info about this company, from their question and answer section:

How do you select your movies? In partnership with the National Board of Mothers, we literally review thousands of movies, and we choose the best, most entertaining films that we’d be proud to watch with our own children. We look for movies that both entertain and inspire families. No profanity, no sex, no violence! Only movies with messages promoting positive family values are pre-selected each month to send to our members.

What do I receive with my Free Trial Offer? A complete movie night package! You will receive a free Mom Approved Movie with a Family Discussion Guide, Interactive Family Activity, and a Movie Inspired Recipe from Auntie’s Kitchen. The movie will be pre-selected and approved by the National Board of Mothers. You are only charged $1.95 for shipping & handling. No obligation whatsoever, you can cancel at any time!

So, what happens if you like your FREE Mom-Approved Movie Night Package? There are two monthly subscriptions that you can sign up for, two movies and package extras for $12.95 per month plus shipping, or one movie per month plus the extras for only $7.95 per month! And whats cool is that this is not like Netflix… They send you out your monthly movie, the family activities and matching recipe, and you get to KEEP the movie!

I don’t consider myself to be very conservative at all, but even I get a little uncomfortable with some of the things that I see in “family” movies sometimes… I hate being surprised by inappropriate content. So I love the idea of a council of moms approving all of these videos before adding them to their movie list, so I know that they will all promote good values.

I think it is also such a great idea to add family activities and games that will help reinforce the positive messages found in the movie, this is a great way to get kids to pay attention to that kind of talk. And adding in a matching kid-friendly recipe is a bonus!

You have NO obligation to continue the program after getting your free movie. I figured spending $1.95 for shipping to check this out was totally worth it… If I don’t like it, I’ve hardly wasted anything. I mean, even a so-so movie is worth two bucks! And if it is as good of a program as I’m hoping it is, then I will definitely be signing up for the subscription!

Check it out, and let me know your experiences with it. You can sign up just by clicking on the box above! If any of my readers have used this service already, I’d love for you to leave feedback on it in the comments! Looking forward to my first movie :)

Once a Year Sale at Flirty Aprons!

I saw this apron today over on one of my favorite blogs, Take It From Me, and fell so in love that I had to go check it out. Even better, the company that makes it, Flirty Aprons, is having their Once a Year Sale!!! So of course, I had to share it with you, too!

The Once a Year Sale at Flirty Aprons is the Irregular Apron Sale, where they give really deep discounts (60% or more!) on aprons with limited defects… Maybe a bit of stitching not finished quite right, or a very small color defect. The flaws are stated to be really minimal. And since I’ll be getting it dirty in the kitchen anyway, I don’t mind too much if there is a itty-bitty flaw :)

They also have little girl (age 3-7) aprons that match some of the mommy aprons, which is just stinkin’ adorable as all heck.

There were soooooo many that I loved, but I decided to go with the Sugar and Spice design shown above…. Love it! I think it might motivate me to get started learning how to do cake decorating, finally! I’ll be looking for any excuse to wear this thing.

Which one is your favorite??
