OK, so I have a Travelocity fair alert notification so that if the prices drop $50, they email me. It’s much more convenient this way than to worry about going online to check prices every day. Right now, I could get tickets to see my dad and sisters for less than $300. Now that is […]
There are still good guys out there in the airline industry. United Airlines gaveus our tickets to go to my grandma’s funeral at a deeply discounted price. I was a little disappointed when I paid since they charged me a $20 fee for booking at the airport per ticket. Well, here we were getting off […]

I was clueless on the fact that many hotels are using automatic motion and weight sensors that register your purchase. Just simply moving the items in the refrigerator around […]
Kate over at Babylune has a great writing project going on that I wanted to let you know about. So let us know about your favorite family vacation as a parent or as a kid and get in on the prize money.
I can sadly say that we don’t take family vacations. Or at least not […]
My friend and I were having a discussion the other day and I disagreed with her. When she takes her kids places she always buys them a souvenir.
Last year she took the family to Disney on Ice. The tickets alone cost her more than $100. Then she bought each child a souvenir and I think […]
Thanks to my friends at b5, I found this great article from Yahoo about the best days to buy certain things. Who would have thought that there were certain days and, to my intrigue, times to buy certain items. I knew about the days thing, but the time thing is kewl! So here is the […]
