Thankful Thursday

I feel so thankful today for the INTERNET!

Where the heck would I be without the internet? My business relies on the Internet. Without the Internet, LoveByCC probably wouldn't be here because I would have no place to sell!

Without the Internet, I wouldn't be able to coupon as much as I do (I just started recently but coupon a lot and I'm loving it!) Hip2Save is the website I follow daily and she does all the research for the amazing deals so I don't have to!

Wow, without the Internet, I wouldn't be able to go to online courses for school! I recently got accepted into Cal State Chico which is probably about 8 hours from my home. I do all my courses online and will get my BA online! How amazing is that?

You can tell how much I love the Internet and why I am thankful for it.

What are you thankful for today?

Friday Finds

Today, I am featuring my boyfriend's mom's shop., Donna's Hobby. She is the person who taught me to crochet! I wouldn't be here crocheting for you all if it weren't for her. She inspired me and look where I am now! :]

She makes the most adorable blankets, fringe blankets, and scarves. Her blankets are great for photography props and her scarves are WONDERFUL and warm especially for winter! Everything she makes is extremely reasonable in price.

Please go check her out and if you do, you can get an EXTRA entry into my giveaway. Scroll down a little bit and add a comment on the giveaway post with what you like best in her shop. That will give you one extra entry! Please do not comment on this post with what you would like best. The comments on this post will not be counted towards the giveaway entries.

Thankful Thursday

I am thankful for the men and women who serve our country.

Thank you Veterans!

Here are a few Veterans Day facts:

• Veterans Day is always observed on Nov. 11, regardless of the day of the week, with speeches and parades across the U.S. The holiday began as Armistice Day on Nov 11, 1919, the first anniversary of the end of World War I.
• In 1938, Nov 11 became a national holiday.
• There were 23.2 million military veterans in the U.S. in 2008

1.8 million were female

2.3 million were black

1.1 million were Hispanic

92 million were 65 and older

1.9 million were younger than 35

• Over 48 million Americans have served in the military during war and peace since 1776.
• Every year, about 80,000 veterans are buried in one of the cemeteries of the National Cemetery system.

Freedom is not free, somebody has to fight for it. Thank you to our vets!

Monday Money Tips

Lately I have been ADDICTED to saving money! I follow a few couponing blogs and Facebook pages and I am hooked. I finally started my couponing binder which is sooo helpful. I basically have a huge 2" binder with a ton of different tabs and use baseball card holders for my coupons! It is great.

Anyways, todays great deal is VICTORIA SECRET...

Buy 1 sweater here for $12

Add 1 scarf here for $18 (free with sweater purchase)

When you go to checkout, check the box that says you have an offer so you are able to enter these codes:

VS10SCARF

This will get you a free scarf worth $18 AND an adorable sweatr for only $12. You will only have to pay $12 + $5.99 shipping. What a great deal for you or a Christmas present to give to someone!
