Can’t Beat Olive Oil
June 28th, 2011 Posted 10:39 pm
I love olive oil. It’s one of my favorite things to use. Not only does my mom use olive oil to cook our vegetables, I use it when I make my homemade hair products. It’s one of the main ingredients, actually. You would be surprised by how many things you can do with extra virgin olive oil. Besides using it for cooking and for hair products, I also use it on my skin. It works great with lotion to add more moisture to the skin or you can use it alone or with other products. It’s even great with shampoo!
Of course if you are not like me and you do not make your own homemade products you may want to try a product by Olivella that also contains olive oil. I’ve never tried their products, but I took an interest in their gentle liquid soap. I love liquid soap that doesn’t dry out your hands in skin!

No Store Credit!
May 11th, 2011 Posted 11:38 pm
Today was a really long day. I feel as if I’ve been going in slow motion all day. I have to figure out a better way to manage my time. I have so many things to do, but I can’t seem to ever get them done on time. I feel as if I’m just barely getting by at work because I’m always so tired or either stressed out. I need to make so changes fast, but I have no idea how to do it.
On top of everything else, I have to hurry up and use this store credit from some website that I ordered from last month. I really wish they would have given me my money back because I wasn’t happy with their service, but they’re forcing me to order more hair stuff from them. Grr. I’d rather buy Polaris Ranger Accessories! And a Polaris Ranger! ;]

Comparison Food Shopping
November 19th, 2010 Posted 10:32 pm
My mom and I have been sitting here looking at the weekly circulars for the super markets near my home. We are trying to see what we need to buy for Thanksgiving dinner. We have a few things so far, but there is still so much more to buy. We have been comparing prices and boy do prices change from store to store. One store has a turkey for 1.50 per pound while another store has it for 99 cent per pound. That’s a huge difference!
I wish we could compare grocery store prices the way we can compare the prices of online stores. That would make things so much easier. I love reading product comparisons and reviews when shopping. They are really helpful. I guess I’ll be looking for diet pill reviews after Thanksgiving weekend is over because we will be cooking a lot of food!

Coupon Savings
October 27th, 2010 Posted 4:03 am
I love, love, love shopping on the Internet. I can’t even remember the last time I’ve shopped in a store. I love shopping online because you can save way more money than you would if you shopped at a store. Not only because the products seem cheaper for some reason, but because you get to use coupon codes. I discovered coupon codes a few years ago and I can honestly say that they are one of the best things to ever happen to me. And online shopping.
I’ve saved so much money by using coupon codes. Sometimes you can save a dollar amount and sometimes you get something free. Either way it’s a great deal. That’s why if I ever want to buy my vitamins or Castile soap from VitaCost, I’ll look for coupons first. I’ve honestly only used vitacost coupons once before, but I saved about $4. You can’t beat that.
