I have been worrying about this all morning and I know a lot of you are going to be very upset. There is a promotional code that is available to get a free photo ornament. The code was sent to me and I posted it- I found out this morning that it was only supposed to be used AFTER a purchase was made. It should not have been released. I am very sorry for those that missed out- the site has apparently crashed- which means they have had thousands and thousands of orders. I know a lot of you are on razor thin budgets and these types of offers mean a lot to you. Trust me, I know how that feels and I want to keep bringing awesome freebies to you! It is really important to me to be able to help you guys stretch your budgets as far as possible as that was the reason that I started this blog. We are all in this together and I work incredibly hard to make sure things are legitimate and ethical and that everyone gets a chance. 99% of the time the information is good but sometimes things slip through the cracks. My blog is my 3rd baby and when I get comments that people are going to stop reading because one coupon was posted incorrectly I literally lose sleep at night. I don’t like to disappoint you guys but I am not perfect.
I can’t in good conscience promote something that is cheating. There are so many amazing and legitimate offers out there- please do not get upset about missing this one. I PROMISE there will be many, many more to come! Also, for those that did place orders- there is a very good chance that the orders will be cancelled. I am just not sure what will happen. Hopefully you do get your ornament but I want you to to be prepared to have the order cancelled just in case. We all witnessed the hot mess that came from the Leapfrog deal at Target this weekend. Target actually changed their policy as a result of one deal! So in the long run by passing on this opportunity we can make sure that we keep getting chances to score great deals in the future!
With that being said:
You CAN still get your 50 free photo cards HERE. The site is apparently very slow so you might want to wait until tonight or just be very patient.
You can also get an adorable ornament from Kodak HERE for just $2.99.
I have a few more custom gift ideas for very cheap that I will be posting today and tomorrow.
In addition, I have been working hard to bring you guys some AWESOME giveaways. I have a TON of them scheduled for the next few weeks. Yes you really can win and there will be a lot of opportunities!! Have you already entered to win the Britax car seat? The $100 Target gift card? and the 3 month supply of laundry soap?
For those that are subscribers, I finally figured out how to change the newsletter email!! So you should see it in your inbox at 5-7pm PST rather than 1am. Hopefully by getting the newsletter sooner you can take advantage of those hot offers that seem to come and go so fast!
I just ordered mine, and I ordered my Christmas cards a few days ago! I almost feel guilty for getting so many cool things for FREE, but it sure helps my Christmas budget! Thanks for the great code!
Is this free ornament free shipping? Thanks for passing such a great deal.
Yeah! Love this deal!! Free Ornaments + Free Shipping is Awesome!!

GREAT Deal! I just got my son’s Christmas Photos done yesterday and was able to scan a photo in and use that, something I would have paid an arm and a leg for at the Photo Store I got Free! Woohoo 🙂
Thanks so much for posting this. Great freebie.
SWEET! Is it just me, or have the freebies & deals been great lately?!
Thanks so much!
I am appauled that a reader would be rude to you for taking so much of your personal time to bring us all these great deals!! Big deal, a mistake was made…deal with it!! I appreciate all your efforts and will continue to pass along your site to my friends and be a reader too!! THANKS!!
I ordered my photo cards yesterday, and the ornament today and it said it was being processed.. SO.. hopefully!?! I can’t wait to get my cards in the mail! What an awesome perk for those of us who are hurting in the financial area! You girls have an awesome site here and it is blessing SO many people! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! 🙂
I was one who couldn’t get it 🙁 I ordered one from kodak anyways..I really appreciate that you have taken the time to find all of these deals!!! It makes it so that I don’t have to. I have taken advantage of vista print these last couple of weeks and cant wait for the mail to come every day..lol. Thank you once again!!!! You have saved me a bundle and the fact that everything is legit makes it that much easier and I dont feel like a fool at the check out 🙂 I made out at rite aid today by the way 🙂
I feel a little guilty about ordering mine now. I won’t feel bad if it doesn’t come after all.
You don’t know how I appreciate that you want to keep everything on the up-and-up. Lots of respect for you!
Thanks for helping out where you can! I hope you sleep well tonight.
You have the best saver’s blog of them all. I read several and love them too, but you’re my favorite. It’s more important for all of us to thank you for all of the great ideas you’ve brought us (that we never would have come up with ourselves) than to beat you up over one mistake.
Keep up the good work. You’re obviously very dedicated, you post constantly (which is why you’re my favorite). Something is always going on on this site.
Hang in there.
I agree with Jennifer P. Sad and disheartening that anyone would attack you for a simple mistake. If anyone feels the need to claim they would stop reading your blog because you may make a mistake then let them stop, they do not deserve your gift of giving your time and energy. How selfish…I wonder how they can look themselves in the mirror? Are we such a angry ungrateful world? Ugh!
Do not even let another minute of worry hit you. No biggy, WE ALL MAKE MISTAKES…and this was not your fault.
Your site STILL ROCKS! And thank you for all your heard work.
I have gotten so many awesome deals from your site and appreciate that you only want to offer and promote legitimate deals. Hope you don’t lose any sleep over this – we need you at the top of your game, since Christmas is right around the corner!! Thanks for all your hardwork 🙂
I love, love, love this blog! It’s by far my favorite and I completely respect your honesty. Thanks you for making my budget money go SO much farther! You are wonderful and sincere and I appreciate your hardwork on behalf of so many!!!
Adriane
hello! Just wanted to say thank you for all of the great deals! I try to get on your site everyday so i don’t miss the awesome posts! Sometimes I am amazed that you have kids and still take the time to find all this great stuff to pass on for us. THANK YOU!!!! You really do a great job…this is one of the best and most fun sites I visit!
No worries! It happens! 🙂 Don’t lose any sleep over it!!!
Thank you SO much for the update and don’t you worry about this! As a fellow blogger, I know that we only post what we truly believe are genuinely good deals. Well, there are those rare occasions when they turn out to not be a good deal. You just don’t always know.
Hey Girl, I’ve received alot of great stuff because of you. So a big “Thank You” to you. So sleep well tonight knowing that you’ve helped so many people.
I HAVE SAVED TONS OF MONEY FROM YOUR SITE! 😉 I ALSO NOTICED YOUR NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO POSTED THE CODE FOR THIS. DON’T WORRY ABOUT IT! 😉
I am a fellow blogger and I know just what you mean about how negative comments can affect you. It was a mistake and you shouldn’t feel bad. You may have lost a reader but you’ve gained a new one in me.
Char,
You rock girlfriend!
You did the right thing. Saving a few dollars isn’t worth your integrity. Your readers will respect you more for taking the deal down.
I LOVE your blog. I live in Idaho so not all the deals you post apply to me but so many of them do!!!! Your site has become my favorite and I check it every day! Don’t let some rude readers get to you….your blog really is great and I really appreciate all the money you have helped me save. Thank you Thank you Thank you!!!
I’m with everyone else – I’ve saved TONS and I owe it to you and your blog. I just got an email from SeeHere stating my order will be canceled if I didn’t purchase a Santa portrait package at the mall. No big deal! Thanks for your hard work.
I appreciate your honesty! I had found this deal from another blog that linked to your blog and I appreciate that you explained your mistake (we all make them!).
I actually got an email tonight saying that they would suspend all orders pending verification of purchase of the Santa Mall Package. I emailed them asking them to cancel mine since I hadn’t ordered anything. It was an honest mistake on my part, too!
Please don’t feel bad about this. Your site is incredibly helpful and, like many others who have commented here, I have been able to save some money from the information you put together. I sincerely appreciate all that you do for your readers.
Like so many others have said, you should NOT feel badly for this one mistake…it was an honest one and not a big deal. Your site is WONDERFUL, it is also my favorite out of the many frugal blogs that I follow. Thanks so much for all you do, and I hope that you can sleep like a baby knowing how much you have helped myself and my family, and so many others!
It’s not your fault and it happens! I ordered the ornament and also received the email that it would be canceled, no big deal! There are soooo many other freebies that you have shared with us that are even better! I stalk your blog all day and refresh and refresh to see what’s next, lol. I read LOTS of blogs but yours is the only one I check 1,000 times a day ( not exaggerating )! Your Awesome and don’t let the negative people get you down, they are everywhere and have nothing better to do!
You help our family save money and stay within our tight budget every month…I don’t know how I would do it without you, thank you!
