Use Volition

I'm about to tell you a secret. This is where it all began for me. I was really trying my best to make money filling out surveys. What a crock. You can make a few dollars here and there. For me, the time involved was too much for too little. Through various searches for surveys, I came across this magical site. It doesn't look very fancy. It's pretty basic. But the information you will have is AWESOME!
This site has much to check out, so set aside at least an hour or more. Plus, pay close attention to the ads on this site. There are great deals and opportunities from their advertisers that you can't find anywhere else.

Free Trade Magazines for business professionals to sign up for. Wanna do some comparisons of cell phone, long distance, DSL, and voIP? You can find out about Movie premiers, free samples, and mailing lists galore! Oh and they can get you in touch with the best survey companies. Everything is scrutinized by users in their forums so you can find out the real deal.

And if you've ever thought about mystery shopping, this is the money load website! Getting paid to shop might sound too good to be true, but there is real work involved. In most cases you will have to spend a little money before you get paid. I've gotten into the mystery shopping and I'd say it's great. The Mystery Shopping forums on this site will point you in the direction of legitimate businesses who don't ask for much for you to sign up with them. Sign up for 2 or 3 at first and then go from there. You have freedom to pick and choose your assignments and you usually get to keep what you buy. There's about a 30 day turnaround time on getting reimbursed for your purchase and then they will pay you for the job on top of that.

Ya'll have fun now and don't forget who gave you volition in the first place. And while your at it, please pass my blog along to your friends. All I am trying to do at the moment is grow my readership. I might get to giveaway some more stuff if I do and I just love giving away stuff.

Clippless Coupons

Dear Queen of Discount,

Just found your blog through MLM and saw that your running a drawing. :D I have been wanting to try coupon clipping, i have a friend that's very good at it, but I never seem to remember to take the things with me once I've done it. Here's to trying again!!! :D

Louise

It's hard for me too Louise. I have gotten to where I can't go shopping without my coupons, so I always carry them around in my purse and then they get loose in my purse and it all becomes a disorganized mess. Coupon organizers come in many different shapes and sizes. I've seen ladies use large business card albums and others use expanding files. The one I like is small enough to fit in a large purse and so you'll always have it with you.

Or you could just forget the coupons and do it this way!
These are electronic coupons. After you sign up, pick the store you do the most grocery shopping with and then your coupons are loaded directly onto your grocery store savings card.

Another electronic coupon site, upromise.com is for college students. There's coupons for groceries, restaurants, and online retailers. If your taking a little night class, be sure to take full advantage of your student status. I might just got back to school so I can get the deals!

Thanks to iheartcoupondeals.blogspot.com I just found about cellfire.com. You can have your coupons text to your cell phone and show that at checkout. I'm still checking it out, but it sounds cool.

Back To School with Calcium! Win $25 Price Cutter GC.

Hey everybody, it's been a few weeks since The Queen has sat on her throne. I've been busy getting the kids ready to go back to school. School is a little late starting in our town, not until next Tuesday. But we've been looking for the best ways to save money on those school lunches and I honestly believe the absolute best way is for me to pack them up everyday. That way I know what they're eating and where it all comes from. The one thing I will give them money to buy at school is that fun little serving size carton of milk.
Luckily my girls love to drink milk with every meal. That may be why my 7 year old twin daughters are both 50 inches tall. Milk is one of the most economical sources of high-quality protein and calcium. Protein and calcium are important for the growth and development of bones and teeth. Buying calcium fortified beverages, such as orange juice and soy drinks is just not good enough. It is actually harder for the body to absorb, and milk is about 30 percent less expensive than fortified orange juice.

Yogurt and string cheese everyday can get a little boring, here's a link from www.dairymakessense.com with some creative ways to mix it up.

EMAIL ME at julieccarroll@prodigy.net TO WIN A $25 GIFT CERTIFICATE TO PRICE CUTTER and SHOPPING BAGS PACKED WITH MDA GOODIES to stock up on milk, cheese and yogurt.
