Hey Did You See That SmartShopper?

One of the first rules of being a thrifty shopper is taking a big hint from Santa. Make a list, check it twice, and don’t veer from that list.

I found this contest on Did You See That. It is for the SmartShopper Grocery List Maker. The SmartShopper records your grocery list by category and prints it out. Do you need to run an errand spoken or pick up an item? All you have to do is speak into the recorder is saved until you’re ready to print. The SmartShopper contains voice recognition software, printer, paper rolls, wall-mounting kit. Best of all it’s easy to use; leave at home and just take the paper print-out.

Want to win one? I don’t blame you. Simply visit Did You See That. and let her know what you think of the SmartShopper. The contest ends December 28, 2008.

A Christmas Carol




When I was little my parents used to bundle us up into the car to drive into DC to see the fancy Christmas displays in the department stores downtown. On the way back home we’d look for Christmas lights while listening to Christmas music on the radio. Simple pleasures but with gas as cheap as it is now it can still be a pleasure that you and your family can enjoy.

Don’t really have much in the line of Christmas music? Well have I got good news for you. I was able to download enough free Christmas music to make two cds. I’m not just talking no name musicians. You can get music from one of today’s hottest country artists, Trisha Yearwood, Brad Paisley, and Faith Hill. You can also get classic artists like the Beach Boys, Bing Cosby, and Aretha Franklin singing your favorite carols.

About a week ago I had to watch the school’s choir teacher’s class while she took the Senior Choir to sing at a local assisted living home. She left the movie The Sound of Music. I didn’t get to watch the whole movie but I could still sing every single song from memory. That’s why I was thrilled to see that I could get My Favorite Things sung my Trisha Yearwood from Sears.

Amazon is offering 25 Days of Free. There is a new holiday song each day but most of them are still available for free download. I was able to get songs from Sixpence None the Richer, Jars of Clay, and Barenaked Ladies. While there check out the Amazon Holiday Sampler. This sampler has five free Christmas downloads.

Mr. Thrifty and I are going to grab our coats and check out the neighborhood lights tonight. So good night and may all your days be merry and bright.

A Secret No More

You know me. I just love contests and have I found one for you. The prize includes:

Bath & Body Works socks, Lotion, Starbuck's gift card, and other goodies (ARV $50).

So how do you enter you ask? You need to go to the La Vie to Laurie site

When there you have to leave a message about your favorite things. I kind of went overboard because I just saw The Sound of Music last week. You see the Chorus teacher was out so they asked me to cover the class. She left the Sound of Music. I didn't get to see the whole thing but boy did I love it. I sang right along with every song just like I've always done. So when when Laurie mentioned my favorite things well I just couldn't help myself.

So if you're like me and Starbucks says love and bath and body says comfort and joy then try to win yourself something special for the holidays and visit

Oh look she wrote me back

Oh I guess she realized that it was an honest mistake and not a character assassination on my behalf. So does this mean I'm not a spammer?

Oh i'm so ticked. Procede with caution.

Hi,

Oh I apologize! You needed to post the link to the actualy blog post you created. I just saw a link to your post and nothing mentioned that you had "blogged it"

All is well

I received a

pretty nasty PM from administrator from the coupon cupboard. Here it is

Hi,

I would just like to clear a few things up with our rules.

We do not allow link posting to your site on here. Especially not in a "spam" manner. You already entered the contest so posting again on that thread was inappropriate. If you would like to post your link there are 2 ways you can do so. Post a valid giveaway you are holding on your blog, rules HERE, or become a supporting member. More info HERE

We are also not a blog

Thank You,
Holly

So I guess this is how I am to interpret this. I should link her site to my site and then when I let her know I did that's "SPAM" I never heard of such a thing.


So I check out her rules and I guess the fact that I posted a second time was considered "SPAM" The second post was just to let her know that I hand linked it. The confusion came from this part of the rules:

Want extra Entries in the giveaway? You must post for each individual entry! Winner number is chosen by your post number (example: this is #1) If you leave 3 entries in 1 post they will only count as 1 entry!

1. Blog about my Giveaway! You must create an actual entry on your blog
2. Stumble, Digg, Twitter, etc this giveaway! (You must leave your Usernames!). If you do all three, that is three more entries for you.

That’s it! This Giveaway will run until 12am est on Sunday, 11/16/08. Good Luck everyone! Open to US Residents 18 years and older.

Edited by Holly: Sorry but Mods are not eligible to enter


then I read rule one

1. Blog about my Giveaway! You must create an actual entry on your blog
2. Stumble, Digg, Twitter, etc this giveaway! (You must leave your Usernames!). If you do all three, that is three more entrie

So I posted about her site on my site and let her know that it was there. Her rude little dig caused me to fire back a long email to her.

Now maybe he's come back her to check out my blog. Perhaps. Maybe not. Here's the thing. I think many people would be confused by what was printed right there on the front page. The second bit of nonscence that's listed below was on another page.

So basically I bothered to post about her site and in return got a little nasty note.

I'm not impressed. You know I PAY to go to a coupon site. it's called Refund Cents. They treat me nicely and I never have a problem with them. EVER. She's probably hoping to make her site a subscription site. Yet how can you do that when you treat people like they are dumb bunnies? How can you keep clients and build new ones when you treat people like CRAP? You're not a blog? OH EXCUUUUUUUUUUUUUSE Me as Steve Martin used to say. That was so important that you had to take the time to write me to let me know that? Well thank you very much. You certainly schooled me didn't you. Heck, if it didn't follow the rules you said you would delete the post. FINE. Delete it that's just fine with me. It didn't bother me. I think it bothered the heck out of me that she took the time, energy, and effort to let me know that she had a site and not a blog and that I SPAMMED her.

SPAMMED her? What the heck is that about? I don't remember talking about dead relatives in Nigeria or fake lotteries. I didn't phish for her information. I simply didn't understand her rules. fine. Either disqualify me for that giveaway, which would have been fine with me or say look you can't post your site in your thread, in the future just email me and then she could have deleted my thread. Great. Really. I wouldn't have felt hurt by that.

I just don't appreciate being called a SPAMMER. What is that about?

Oh I'll get over this. It is only bothering me now and I just want to make that people see this post before they read the thread below this. Please know that if you don't understand her rules she will accuse you of being a spammer and write you a PMS letter.
