New Website Obsessions!

Scouring the web for great bargains has become a huge passion of mine, right up there with shopping in actual stores. :) While few things can compare to the thrill of trying on a big find and realizing it fits perfectly, online shopping is almost as satisfying. Plus there's the added anticipation of waiting excitedly for your lovely scores to come in the mail. So here are four websites I discovered in the last couple days that are already having a profound impact on my freebie finding. They're truly awesome!

First let me tell you about http://www.makeupalley.com/ It is a new swapping website I discovered that deals exclusively in cosmetics! It is completely free to join and international, but the majority of the members are from America, so for those of us located in the USA, it really helps keep the cost of postage down. I only joined yesterday and have already set up swaps for 2 amazing items that I have long been dying to try: Organix Brazillian Keratin Therapy Conditioner, and Burt't Bees Natural Acne Solutions. Great quality products traded for items I no longer need. Soooo happy!











Whether you are single, married or have a family, I think we can all relate to trying to plan a delicious, tasty and INEXPENSIVE meal and not knowing where to begin. Problem solved! This fabulous blog: http://budgetbytes.blogspot.com/ is all about how to plan wonderful dishes on a shoestring budget. It includes gorgeous step by step photos for each recipe and has a breakdown of the per ingredient costs that goes into the recipes. It could not be simpler to use, a perfect blog in every way! I recommend trying one of Beth's latest recipes for fall: http://budgetbytes.blogspot.com/2011/10/sausage-kale-soup-845-recipe-105.html Sausage and Kale Soup, only $1.05 per serving!
