It Pays to Follow Blogs
UPDATED: A NOTE FROM A FRUGAL FRIEND:
Hi everyone.......A Frugal Friend has NOT gone AWOL! HaHa
Blogger has locked me out since Wednesday night....saying their computers think I'm a SPAM blog. WIth the holidays, there wasn't much I could do.
If you could let everyone know I'm still here and just waiting on Blogger/Google to unlock my blog........thanks for hosting Mailbox Monday for me :-)
Ashleigh at Thankfully Thrifty knew all about my Blogger troubles before she left for her vacation....but with the holiday week I didn't want to bother any of you.....secretly hoping it would get fixed by today. No such luck!
Fingers crossed!
Well if last week was slow this week was down right tortoise like!! I know what the problem is...I don't have enough time to invest in signing up for freebies...when I first started blogging...this was one of my favorite things. I would literally stalk Free Sample Freak's website just waiting for the latest freebies.
I think that I am going to make it a goal to spend 30 min a day searching out freebies and signing up for them...I love my little bit of Christmas in the mail too much to give it up!!
I would much rather give up 30 min of sleep!! :)
Reading Material
Lego Club (2) with bonus Bionicle Mag's for the kids-- these are not usually in my freebie pics...although they are freebies...but since the kids made out like bandits at Christmas-- these are going in the car bag...something to keep the kids busy when we have to pay bills or run errands.
Town & Country
Forbes
Freebies, Samples and Coupons
Pond's Rejuveness Sample and $2.00/1 coupon
The Gingerbread Man foaming bubble bath and shower gel
Checks in The Mail
N/A- this poor little category has been so barren and empty for a while...but I think Staples is going to reward me in a few weeks!! Just have to remember to get out and get my free after rebate items!! :)
Kid's Freebies
N/A
Giveaway Wins
Twisted Silver Earrings won @ 7 Clown Circus!!
Promotional Items for my Blog
A Good Talk by Daniel Menaker -- In the process of Reading-- I get to giveaway 5 copies of this book!
If you would like to have a mailbox so full that it feels like Christmas every day...I suggest that you follow
It's Hip to Save
and
Free Sample Freak
I am not sure what happened to A Frugal Friend's blog...Blogger is saying Blog not found. Does anyone know what that means?
I was waiting to link up this morning but she seems to have gone AWOL? Here is a linky so that we can all still visit each other and let's hope that A Frugal Friend finds her way back!! I have been having such a great time visiting everyone's blog to check out their goodies of the week!

I am also a happier person when I spend some time and get some freebies! Isn't it fun to have a full mailbox?
ReplyDeleteThanks for entering my giveaway I am now a follower and I AGREE it is totally HIP to save!
ReplyDeleteSometimes on Sunday mornings, I'll peruse the giveaway/contest links on the SITS site. There's always a ton and I'll just go through entering one contest and another. That's if I'm lucky enough to have the time to do it. I've won some giveaways just by doing that!
