Do you want a FREE $5.00 Gift Card? Sign up for Upromise and you can have it!
Upromise is a site that I’ve recommended for years! They offers coupon codes for your online purchases and you can earn between 1 – 25% cash back. You can also load ecoupons to your shoppers cards and put that saved money into your Upromise account. Right now, when you sign up for a Upromise account you will receive a free $5.00 Gift Card, if you make a qualifying purchase within 14 days of opening your account. They have a few different gift cards to choose from, including: Target.com, CVS, or Barnes & Noble! You can keep your card and use it yourself or wait until you have a few and find a website where you can sell gift cards. Either way.
Instead of getting cash back in the form of a check {like Ebates} your savings are deposited into your Upromise college savings account. From there you can choose to move that money into a high-yield savings account, a tax deferred 529 plan, to pay down a student loan, or you can request a check to be used how you want. The best part is that you can open one up for yourself, a child, or a grandchild! This is a great way for grandparents to help put their little ones through college without spending any additional money.
To get even more savings you can sign up as a preferred diner. Once you register your credit or debit card at upromise.com (completely safe) you can find participating Upromise dining restaurants and find special dining offers. When you go to pay your bill with the credit or debit that you registered with you will automatically save a percent of your order (up to 8%!). This money will be deposited into your account without you having to even think about it!
Upromise also offers eCoupons on everyday items that you are buying already. After you’ve registered your grocery and drugstore cards you can come back monthly to your Upromise account and download coupons to automatically apply to your order at checkout. The money won’t come off your total bill but will be directly deposited into your Upromise account. We have our parents and grandparents cards on file on our account and we go at the beginning of the month and download all possible coupons. It only takes a few seconds and the purchases that our parents and grandparents make send money to our Upromise account without them having to lift a finger.
If you haven’t signed up for Upromise yet what are you waiting for?

Do you remember how I told you how I teamed up with jcp.com and Mom Central for a fun Secret Santa gift Exchange? Well, now it’s time for the reveal!
To quickly recap, I went shopping at jcp.com to pick out a gift for the blogger that I was assigned. I didn’t get to pick who the blogger was and the person that was my Secret Santa didn’t get to pick me. It was all a big secret until our presents arrived and our SantaTags revealed our Secret Santas.
When looking for a gift I searched and searched and finally decided on what I thought would be the perfect gift! I recorded my message to my chosen blogger and sent her gift on it’s way! I chose a set of snowflake fleece sheets . Even though I haven’t tried out the new fleece sheets for myself I have heard wonderful things about them from friends. I hope she liked them! There were tons of great blogger gift ideas at jcp.com so it was a tough choice.
So what about my Secret Santa?
I anxiously waited to see who my Secret Santa was and what they got for me! The delivery man dropped off a package with a gorgeous silver box inside. Inside the box was a…are you as excited as I was? A very nice Liz Claiborne sweater was my gift from Faithfully Free.
The sweater was a great gift! It was the perfect fit, so soft, and a comfy shirt that I can throw on to go just about anywhere. I absolutely adore it! She
I loved the process of listening to the personalized Santa Tag, choosing a gift for someone else, and being introduced to another NC blogger! The whole experience was incredibly fun and I hope I can participate in a fun blogger gift exchange next year!

Four weeks ago, I posted about how my family was taking part in the Listerine Oral Care Challenge and here I am to give you an update on how it went!
I expected the challenge to go smooth as silk because I never forget to brush or floss…or so I thought. When I started keeping track on paper I realized just how easy it is to skip a day of flossing here and there. We never skipped brushing or rinsing but personally I would let flossing slide by. My husband was right on track the entire time. He is competitive and may have just wanted to show me up but he’s usually more on top of routines than I am anyway so I’ll give it to him.
While thinking a lot about oral health care through this challenge I remembered back to my pregnancy and how difficult it was to brush once a day. I could rinse all day long but something about brushing wasn’t good for me (I’m sure you know what I mean!). I have never been so thankful to have Listerine! Okay, I don’t know why but I just wanted to share that.
After the challenge my mouth feels cleaner and healthier. They say that a habit is formed in 20 day and well, I would say that after the 30 days of this challenge I have a new routine formed.
This challenge has also been a good reminder to brush my little one’s gums. She’s at the age where her teeth will be popping through any day and it’s now that I need to start a good routine of cleaning her mouth and making sure I don’t give her a juice sippy cup to carry around or go to sleep with. I want to raise her with good oral habits so she’ll never be afraid of the dentist’s chair.
This challenge was very good for my family. We had a common goal to unite us and we had fun keeping each other accountable. We were able to try flavors of Listerine and different types of floss than we normally buy. By the way, the Reach woven floss {the pink one} is incredible!!! I’ve never used a floss that was so gentle on my gums and it didn’t leave my mouth tasting waxy. You seriously should try it!
If you’re stockpile is running low on Listerine, go here to snag a $1 off Listerine coupon. Also, while supplies last, there is a $1/1 – Reach Floss Product at coupons.com. For more information about all of the great products Listerine offers and for more information about taking the Oral Care Challenge visit Listerine.com!
