Hello All-
This wouldn't be a consumer advice blog if I didn't mention to you an up and coming website that you might want to consider joining!
The site is www.angieslist.com and it is the sister site to craigslist.org
This site is consumer driven and you can find reports on all types of businesses, contractors and service providers in your local area. This site is growing across the U.S. and Eugene, OR happens to be one of the first sites it set up shop in.
This is super short notice, but if you join and submit 15 company report (3 have to be medical providers..doctors, dentists, etc.) you can earn a FREE Flip Mini Camcorder! The deadline is midnight Oct. 31, so don't delay!
They have several membership levels/prices, but if you are working on a home project I highly encourage you to join...they have great reports from other consumers on there!
Hint: the report recording will take you approx. 1 to 1.5 hours depending on how much you write and how fast you type. It took me just over an hour to submit and earn my free Flip (which I am excited about because this was on my Christmas list!).
Happy Saving!

Smokin' Deal- www.artscow.com (personalized gifts!)
Hello All-
I visit www.spoofee.com daily to check on any great deals. Make this a habit too!
Today one of the deals is for www.artscow.com, they specialize in personalized gifts.
They were offering 99 cent personalized photo dog tags with the code: 99DOGTAG, this code gets you 1 for 99 cents shipped!!! A great stocking stuffer idea for a person in your life...this would be a very hip gift for the tween crowd, but really many people would like this!
However, when I got online I see that if you sign up for an account with this company...they give you all types of FREE items credits. You can score some great deals by visiting this site and it seemed really user-friendly.
I got 2 dog tags for my brother and his girlfriend with a picture of them on them, regular price $17.98 + shipping for $1.98 shipped!! I used my code "99DOGTAG" and they gave me a free dog tag credit on this order, the coupon code allows you to get free shipping! A smokin' deal!
Check it out!

Deal-Disney Tinkerbell Movie - $4 Boboli Rebate
Hello All-
I am learning lots about rebates and I want to share my new knowledge with you!
I bought the latest Disney release Tinkerbell yesterday. I knew that when I bought a Disney video to enter my movie code on Disneyrewards.com (it's free to join and you get free Disney stuff, enter points for DVDS purchased or send in your movie ticket stubs!). I also knew that since I had purchased Ariel and Sleeping Beauty, this purchase unlocked my free offer of a tinkerbell collectors box (got that ordered for my daughter for Christmas...free! from disney rewards) and I knew that I would get the $5 rebate for the Minute Maid juice (sent that off yesterday, see previous blog for this entry), but what I didn't know was that there was another rebate offer! I got the thought to google Tinkerbell DVD rebates and I got a hit! Boboli is offering a $4 rebate with DVD purchase, the form is on www.boboli.com...it's like getting those products for free if you buy them at Winco or use your coupons at pricier stores.
My suggestion is that Disney often pairs with other retailers for rebates, if you buy a Disney movie or another kid title that got a lot of press, it would be worth your time to google video name and rebates and see what you get for hits! It might be worth it to score some free food!
I am noticing that more rebates are allowing you to send in copies of your receipt and all Disney DVDs have at least 2 proof of purchase tabs allowing you to take advantage of multiple rebate offers!

Happening-Victoria's Secret Collegiate Collection
Hello All-
Victoria's Secret has introduced a new collegiate line as part of their "pink collection". If you have fond memories of your college days or just want to support your favorite team, they do have a very good collection of 20+ colleges that have fun yoga pants, sweat pants, baseball tees, hoodies, etc.
These would probably fit into the lounge category, but could be worn out too!
Victoria's Secret at Valley River Center-Eugene is carrying the U of O line, but for other colleges visit www.victoriassecret.com
Hint: if you want to buy something, consider doing it on-line as they always offer great coupons and if you can find codes, you can enter up to 3 at a time so you can get some great deals this way! Visit www.retailmenot.com for promo codes, they are always available.
My story: I bought the U of O bling hoodie. I used a coupon code for $10 off a $50+ purchase, used my $10 birthday Angels reward and got a free messenger bag with a $50+ purchase using the 3 promo codes it allowed me to enter. Usually I go for the free shipping offers, but they don't have any that are currently working, but with this vendor it is very important to coupon stack!! They have great offers when you combine coupons!

Deal-Fandango/Trial Pay (Free Movie Tickets!)
Hello All-
If you go to the movies or want to, but think it is too expensive (I do!), then check out this promotion!
Visit www.fandango.com and view movie times...you will see next to the movie times a tab that says "free movie ticket", click on it. It will redirect you to a site called TrialPay. If you complete one of the transactions will listed vendors, 90+, Fandango will send you a coupon/promo code for a free movie ticket!
If you are planning on buying items on-line, then see what vendors are included as this is an easy to way to earn free tickets for items you already planned to buy! (Vendors include PacSun, Limited Too, Shoebuy.com, etc.)
My Story: I needed to buy my daughter some Crocs boots so I saw that Shoebuy was one of the TrialPay vendors. They are offering a 10% discount, plus free shipping with any purchase. I bought the shoes through the Trial Pay link and already have my free movie ticket code! Once the order is processed, Fandango forwards on the promo code email. It was super easy, I scored free shipping, a 10% discount ($3.25) and got free movie ticket when I was planning to go see a movie anyway ($8) so I got a great deal on my shoes for money I was planning to spend anyway!
