My frugal friend Deb has a GREAT giveaway on her site for a $50 Gift Gard to River Falls in Woonsocket. You don’t have to be a reader of Frugal Living and Having Fun to win (but, why wouldn’t you be???). And EVERYONE gets a coupon for a FREE dessert. How cool is that? Great for a date night….oh honey….. Gift Card giveaway
Ok, if you have been thinking about it…wondering…tempted…THIS is the week to join Swagbucks. This online search engine rewards you with swagbucks redeemable for gift cards or shopping or sweepstakes. Every Friday is MegaBucks day at swagbucks – rewards are bigger and better on Fridays. This week they are promising to give LOTS of swagbucks away. I’ve been a member since September and I have earned over $45 in Amazon gift cards.II earn them $5 at a time (for 450 swagbucks). I like instant gratification. Of course, if you have more patience, you can hold on and save your swagbucks for bigger rewards. Once a friend is referred, you earn bucks from them too. This is a really easy way to earn at home for those little “extras” on your wish lists. I’ve used my gift cards mostly for book purchases on Amazon, but the choices are endless. They have hundreds of different gift cards. Go to this link and try it out for yourself. You will be rewarded! Swagbucks referral

Here are a few places to get some great coupons and sale match-ups.
