Wicked Savings, Guy

  I'm back east for a week, which is exciting for the couponer in me because there are CVS's everywhere. For whatever reason, we don't have CVS in Portland, and so I am forced to miss out on the deals there week after week. But on a stop for gas somewhere in Southern New Hampshire, I found myself sitting next to a CVS that was just begging me to come in. With some quick internet research on my phone I found a couple money-making deals that seemed worth doing, but much like I haven't been blogging, I haven't really been keeping up on my clipping and organizing, so I was…

I got: 2 Boxes of Kotex Tampons (Regular price $6.98, on sale 2/$5 - $1.50/2 coupon - Safeway doubler ($.50) = Paid $3.00, plus got $2 cat for next time!) 1…

Amazing Internet Opportunities!

It's been awhile since I've done one of these posts putting people on blast, since I'm pretty busy these days running a website that is apparently quite successful. But along with the success of Yobeat has come an influx of incredible offers, opportunities and suggestions of ways for random start-ups and other bad ideas to involve themselves in the site. Without further adieu, I present some of my favorites from the last week. Subject:     Free Professional Writer for Yobeat Hope keeping well. I'm just getting in touch to ask if you're open to reviewing content from freelance writers at Yobeat - if so, I'd love to put together a…
