Living Room Mess & Winners

Posted by: mygoodcents In: Blog News| My Mailbox| Random

I’m a little scattered today because the landlord is here putting in a new dining room floor. My living room is a mess of sweaty men, saws, wood, and flying carpet particles.

Now, the new floor is really nice and I appreciate anything new he wants to put in but there was nothing wrong with the old floor.

Our screen door however, is about to fall of the hinges and the living room windows are a big pile of broken glass just waiting to happen.

Anyway…

I received a $5.00 Amazon gift certificate yesterday from LuckySearch thanks in full to my lucky buddies!

Giveaway time! I left it up to my friend Random.org and here are the winners of the POM Wonderful and Mamma Mia ticket giveaways.

POM : Tracee, Tracy I, and One Frugal Girl

Mamma Mia : Elizabeth

I’ve emailed all of you. Congrats!

Oh, and I’ve decided that people (particularly the man in my living room) who whistle songs bug me. Either sing the song or trap shut.

I think that’s all I have for now. It’s a must that I go outside for an attitude readjustment.

UPDATE : The floor is done and they didn’t even leave a huge mess. Thanks boys! And I forgot to mention my Alli arrived today but I’ve decided not to try it until Friday. On the off chance I get an unexpected surprise, I would prefer to be at home not at work.

Another Mamma Mia Giveaway

Posted by: mygoodcents In: Win Stuff

This Giveaway has ended. Winner will be announced soon.

Is this even still playing in theaters? This is like the fifth ticket I’ve won to Mamma Mia. Maybe it’s a sign that I’m supposed to see the movie. Nah.

I’ll make this one quick because.. well, I’m about over the Mamma Mia tickets.

One winner will receive one ticket to see Mamma Mia. Ticket must be printed and is only valid through Hollywood Movie Money so make sure there is a theater near you.

No hoops, just leave a comment if you want to win.

Giveaway will end tomorrow, August 19th around 2pmish PST.

Oh, you can also try and win your own ticket (use code 81GR1G) just don’t win the Vegas trip or you’ll be forced to take me with you.

Counting Crows - $2.99

Posted by: mygoodcents In: Good Deals

Amazon is currently offering for download, the entire August & Everything After album for $2.99

This was such a great CD. I think I was a senior in high school when it came out, I remember listening to it over and over and over and over.

Need to go do a quick scan of the CD’s. I can’t imagine I don’t already have it but just in case, don’t want to miss out!

Coupon Giveaway

Posted by: mygoodcents In: Win Stuff

I have a ridiculous amount of coupons and my coupon use is pretty low right now so I’m giving them away to you!

One winner will receive a priority mail envelope FULL of coupons. No kidding, it’s a LOT of coupons so be prepared for a day of organizing.

I dug through all the individual coupons and got rid of everything that expires before September but there are quite a few inserts in there that haven’t been cut so a few of them may be expired by the time they get to you.

To enter simply leave a comment with a link to a website I should check out. The site can be anything no need to keep a coupon theme.

Only one entry per person.
Giveaway will end Saturday August 23rd at 3pmish PST.

Current giveaways will always be listed under Site News (located under my Flickr photo stream to the right) so be sure and check out the other stuff you can win.

How To Buy…

Posted by: mygoodcents In: Food| Other Sites

As you know I’ve been on a health kick lately and am all about the fruits and veggies. The only problem is I am a complete dummy when it comes produce. I don’t know how to pick anything.

I stand in the produce section picking up random items and inspecting them as if I have a clue. Is this fresh? No? Yes? Maybe, but why doesn’t that lady next to me want it?

The Grocery Coupon Guide recently released a couple of posts that I’m finding quite helpful and I hope they continue with more.

How To Buy Fresh Pineapple
How To Buy Blueberries

Ginger also had a great post a few days ago, The Best Time To Buy.

Expired Coupons For Military Families

Posted by: mygoodcents In: Coupons| Other Sites

You may already know this, but military families are able to use coupons on base for up to six months past the expiration date.

Sending your expired coupons would really help them out and you might even be able to score a couple good karma points for yourself.

Here is a list of current addresses you might want to keep bookmarked for your future good deeds.

Thanks Paula!
