Social Retargeting by Chango

March 2009

I am probably the last person on the internet that wasn’t using Swagbucks for internet searches. If you haven’t gotten on the bandwagon here is what you are missing:

Free Gift Cards

Basically you register and download the toolbar. You can do any online searches using your Swagbucks toolbar and you are randomly awarded bucks. The toolbar gives you the same results as Google or Ask.com so it is basically effortless. There are a variety of gift cards to chose from including Target, Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Starbucks etc..

This is a great time to register as you can probably earn enough gift cards to do all your Christmas shopping this year. Click here to register and get 3 extra points just for signing up!

The great news is that I stopped into my local Long’s Drugs and confirmed the transition to CVS is scheduled for May 20th! The change over of Long’s to CVS is scheduled to be complete in Oct 2009- so you might want to call your store and see if they have received word yet. I have never shopped at CVS before and I am very excited to finally score all the great deals I see posted.

The bad news is that Walgreens has confirmed they are ending the Easy Saver program in May. Deal Seeking Mom posted this email from Walgreens confirming April is the last month. Personally I do not care for the register rewards program at Walgreens as it is confusing and requires purchases in large increments (like $10). I hope they come up with something better to replace the Easy Saver otherwise CVS here I come!

PS: For local readers, my Long’s is in Rocklin, CA.

Focus Friday: Get Organized!

03/27/2009

Share

I love theses Focus Friday carnivals as it really forces me to be accountable to my readers to accomplish my goals! I you missed out on last week’s office project find the before and after here.

This week I am planning to get our medical information organized. My husband’s company just switched to a new plan and I am going to have to find all new doctors for our family. We are all current on doctor and dentist visits but I need to find new ones and confirm they are accepting new patients. I also need to update my daughter’s shot records since this will be the 4th pediatrician she has been to in 19 months!

I would encourage you to sort through your medical information as well- is everyone current on dental visits, well baby appointments, physicals etc? Do you have all your files in order? Do you have any prescriptions you can transfer to utilize the free gift cards many stores promote? We don’t take medication but I have a Rx for prenatal vitamins that I move from store to store.

If you need to visit an optometrist there are coupons for free Accuvue contact lens offers on my side bar. I just went two weeks ago and was able to use all three offers to get 3 sets of contacts!

Check out Thrifty and Chic Mom for more motivation to get those projects done this week!
