So, due to financial struggles, I have become extremely cheap with how I spend money on myself. However, I am a girly girl and love to feel pretty so I have found some ways to make some extra cash and also to save as much as I can. Here are some of my tips:
1. Sign up for store loyalty cards, emails and follow on facebook/twitter. I know... Big Brother is watching you, but Big Brother is watching you save some money!! I sign up for all the stores that I could ever want to shop and I get some seriously good deals for my kids, myself and my husband.
2. Surveys. Yes, they can be time consuming but I get amazon gift cards for taking surveys a couple times a month. My favorite sites for these are Swagbucks (you can earn money by doing more than surveys), Opinion Outpost (I have earned the most on this site) and Valued Opinions. I also do e-rewards for free magazine subscriptions.
3. Sign up for other various things. I am a member of the Loreal Consumer Program and although I have never had the opportunity to test a product, I did answer some surveys and got a free Lancome Eye Shadow quad. I also am a member of Influenster (previous post on my 1st box) and love the fact that I can free things from that, however, I have yet to get beauty related products :(
People are amazed at what a bargain shopper I am and how much I can get for free. It takes some work, but it is worth it to me in the end.
