YES!!!! Exciting news for Hey... Check This Out!

My blog just got a major shout-out in a post called "Deal Finding 101" on the Daily Lounge.  Three blogs were featured:  Time Magazine's Cheapskate Blog, Consumerist.com, and Hey... Check This Out!  I am so excited we were mentioned in up there with the big dogs!  How cool is that?!

Who's excited???!!!  Yay!!!

FREE! Money you didn't even know you had! :-)

Here's a great article from Woman's Day that goes well beyond the unclaimed cash sites that your state offers.  Readers, please post in the comments if these turned into cash for you!  (And maybe send some my way?)  :-D


H1N1 INFO! Good luck getting your 2nd H1N1 vaccine booster shot...

This excerpt is from an article on MSNBC's site explaining how parents are going to be hard-pressed to find the second dose of H1N1 vaccine their kids need to be protected.  I find this to be disturbing.  How is the production going so slowly that we are so far behind, especially knowing that...

"After a single dose of vaccine, only 55 percent of children ages 3 to 9 developed enough immune response within 21 days to protect them fully against the H1N1 flu. After a second dose, 94 percent were protected.

Among the youngest children, those ages 6 months to 35 months, only 25 percent posted a strong enough response after just one dose."

SHIPPING DEAL! Sears offers unlimited shipping for $19.99!

For those of you who ship a lot of holiday gifts, this could be the deal for you!  Similar to Amazon Prime, you pay $79/year for Sears ShipVantage (unlimited shipping).  This is good, but you may not get full use of it all year.  But they are now offering a 60-day trial period (just in time for the holidays!) for just $19.99. 

Check out the details here!

Happy shopping!!!!!

HUGE DEAL! Game night! Game night! Game night!



So, Toys R Us has an amazing deal going on this week for Hasbro/Milton Bradley games.  Many are on awesome sale, plus if you spend $25, you get a $10 TRU gift card.  Okay, that's pretty good... buuuuuuuut... Hasbro/MiltonBradley is also doing a single mail-in rebate (you only have to send one for all games) for select games!

Here's what I got yesterday:
Chutes and Ladders: sale $3.99, rebate $2.00 = $1.99
Candyland: sale $3.99, rebate $2.00 = $1.99
Don't Break the Ice: sale $3.99, rebate $2.00 = $1.99
Ants in Your Pants: sale $3.99, rebate $2.00 = $1.99
Memory: sale $3.99, rebate $2.00 = $1.99
Connect Four: sale $9.99, rebate $3.00 = $6.99

So, for $16.94 +tax plus 44 cents for the rebate stamp (total of $17.38 +tax), I got all of those games. THEN, if you count the $10.00 gift card (I do!), the total cost for six great, classic games comes down to $7.38 +whatever tax was on the original purchase.

CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Six games for 8 bucks!

MONEY-SAVER! When you SHOULDN'T use rechargeable batteries!

The environmentalist in me did not want to post this, but I am also pretty practical, so I thought I'd share.  With the holidays coming up, it seems there are always a lot of batteries being purchased.  But which kind should you really be buying?

This is the most comprehensive article on rechargeable batteries of all time, ever.  :-)  After the article, there's a lot of great info in the comments section as well.

Enjoy!
