Small coupon tip -

How do you search for coupons? 
 
Although it is great to sign up to some trusty blogs and sites, to snoop of message boards - here is one way that you may not have tried yet.
 
With google search you can search all indexed blogs.  It falls under the "more" box on the top.  Once you put in a simple word like "coupon" while searching under blogs, you can pick the time frame you want to focus on; the last 24 hours, last week, etc.  Very helpful for finding out about the latest and greatest coupons before they go widely public!
 
Happy couponing!

Night owl?

Sometimes it is a struggle to feel like you are getting out in the word - and not spending enormous amounts of money.  Here is an idea for you!  Events like meteor showers can be fun, free events.  I have some great memories staying up late with my mom counting the "shooting stars".  If you have kids, it is a great way to teach them about the way the universe works, maybe learn a few of the major constellations together - or make up your own.  Grab a blanket, maybe a pillow, and enjoy the night's sky.
 
There are many great sources on the internet to track meteor showers, but here is one that  I enjoy: http://www.meteorblog.com/
 
Happy meteor hunting!
