  3. Black Friday style deals every day with dealnews

    February 4, 2012 by missemmamm

    This post brought to you by dealnews. All opinions are 100% mine.

    dealnews is a cool site that goes through the net to bring you the hottest deals. They check over 2,000 online retailers and tens of thousands of deals every day and then share the top 200+ deals. Now that’s a time saver. They make sure each deal is valid, from a reputable retailer and at the lowest total price. It’s like getting Black Friday type deals every day.  

    dealnews has a variety of deals from so many different categories. My favorite deals are the electronics deals and the clothing deals

    Today I was wondering who had a deal on a smaller amount of digital prints. I often buy them in bulk but only need some today. It turns out that CVS has 25 4X6″ digital prints for free when you register. Walmart also has a free photo special going on. I would have missed these if it weren’t for dealnews.

    You know that I love movies, well dealnews also mentions a free $5 Amazon Instant Video credit with device registration. So fun.

    It’s also no secret that I have a thing for shoes. dealnews has info on a comfy looking pair of Skechers Women’s Keepsakes Boots in their clothing deals. These boots come in a variety of sizes and colors.

    In the future I (and you) can keep up to date with deals in our favorite categories with the dealnews Select Newsletter and email notifications (for specific categories, stores or items). I’m going to sign up now.

     

    This musical video from dealnews is also fun.

  4. Fantastic Discounts with the Walgreens Prescription Savings Club

    February 4, 2012 by missemmamm

    This post brought to you by Walgreens. All opinions are 100% mine.

    I totally need to share this with you folks. Right now you can join the Walgreens Prescription Savings Club  for only $20 for an individual plan or $35 for a family membership. A family membership includes your immediate family including dependents 22 years of age and younger, your spouse and even pets.

    When you join the Walgreens Prescription Savings Club you get access to a ton of super neat discounts. For instance, you can save on over 8,000 brand-name and all generic medications.

    Other discounts include savings on diabetic supplies, nebulizers, flu shots and pet prescriptions. You also earn bonuses when you buy photofinishing services and Walgreens brand products. Walgreens brand products are great because you save money but still get the same quality as brand name items.

    Walgreens photos are of great quality and are a great price. Mine have always been ready on time (usually they are actually ready early, so great!). Plus they often have specials sales on prints and photo gifts.

    So I recommend checking out the Walgreens Prescription Savings Club today to save big. I spend my savings on shoes, xd.

  5. Jason Wu for Target: Top 5 Pieces

    February 3, 2012 by missemmamm

    I’ve been a fan of Jason Wu’s designs for years. So as soon as his collaboration for Target was announced last year I grew super excited. The collection includes 53 pieces. The idea for his collection is “American girl in Paris”.

    Wu’s attitude about the collection is fantastic, “By working with Target I was able to create an accessible collection that reflects my sophisticated design aesthetic.” “As with my main collection, special attention has been considered into every detail and I can’t wait to see girls wearing and enjoying the collection.”

    Trench Coat in Black, $54.99/Poplin Dress in Navy, $39.99

    This trench is just amazing. I love the lines. It will also be available in navy. Of course this is the dress that’s been circulating all over. It’s no surprise that it’s already coveted since it has such a classic look.

    Pleated Canvas Skirt in Belize Blue $29.99/Front-Flap Bag in Blue Floral $39.99/Long-Sleeved Pointelle Sweater in Belize Blue $39.99

    I’m dying for the items in “belize blue”. They are so adorable. I could actually see myself wearing all 3 of these pieces together with a white top and some white patent mary janes.

    The collection includes clothing priced $19.99 to $59.99 and handbags and scarves priced $19.99 to $49.99. it will be available from February 5th through March 6, 2012 (or until supplies are gone). Don’t forget to check Target.com as well as your local store since some pieces are only available online. The collection is not available at all Target locations. You can check to see if your Target is included by visiting the official Facebook page, here. Ours isn’t but maybe I’ll be able to score something on Target.com.

    The line is available here on Target.com.

  6. I LOVE Avocados: missemmamm’s Guacummus Recipe featuring Avocados from Mexico

    February 2, 2012 by missemmamm

    This post brought to you by Avocados from Mexico. All opinions are 100% mine.

    Guys you may recall from previous posts but I love avocados. I typically use them to make a tasty guacamole dip. However sometimes I shake things up a bit. For instance I also like to make a creation I call guaccumus. Guacamole + Hummus = Guaccumus. It’s scrumptious. Check out my guaccumus recipe at the end of this post.

    To make your yummy guacummus you’re going to want to pick up some Avocados from Mexico (there are some fab recipes on their site).


    I also recommend checking out I love avocados on Facebook . They have some really fun stuff on there including ringtones, virtual gifts, wallpapers, screensavers and blogger badges. I downloaded the Authentic Guacamole wallpaper seen above. It was so easy. Just choose a wallpaper and click the orange “Download” button underneath of the picture. Then 4 size choices will come up. Choose the correct size for your screen and click on it. Then you will see a box that says “You have chosen to open” and the file name. Then just select “Save File”. Once you’ve downloaded the wallpaper right click it and choose “Set as Desktop Background”. Voila, a tasty wallpaper for your computer, phone or ipad is now yours!

    missemmamm’s Guaccumus Recipe

    Ingredients:
    2 avocados
    1/2 can of chick peas (I prefer it to be more guacamole than hummus, if you want it more hummusy use a whole can)
    1/2 medium tomato
    1/4 yellow pepper
    1/4 red pepper
    1/2 onion
    1 1/2 segments of garlic (I like it super garlicy, you can use less if you prefer)
    a few leaves of cilantro
    juice from 1/2 of a lime
    juice from 1/2 of a lemon
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    1 teaspoon cumin
    1 teaspoon mustard powder
    1/2 teaspoon paprika

    Directions:
    Chop your veggies into small pieces. Mix the spices in a bowl. Mix the olive oil and juices in a bowl. Combine all ingredients in a food processor until it hits the desired consistency. I like my guacamole fairly smooth but many prefer it a bit lumpy.
