Popcorn & Makeup =)

I finally got picked to host a House Party! I am so excited about this!! It is for Orville Redenbacher, Maybelline & Lipstick Jungle.

Here is the deal, you sign up with www.houseparty.com & apply to host parties for things they are promoting. I signed up with them about 2 months ago & have applied for several parties. This will be the first one I get to host. After you are chosen to host a party, you invite your buddies & you will receive a party box in the mail! I am not sure yet what all will be in this one, I know it will have popcorn, something from Maybelline & a dvd of Lipstick Jungle, so we can get a preview before the season starts on TV.

I guess the key is to apply, apply, apply to any party that you are interested in having. I will keep you updated & post pictures when the box comes in the mail. The party is scheduled for 9/17/08.

I am Buzzing!!

I finally got my first campaign from being a Buzz Agent! Whoo-hooo! It is the for the Pledge Multi Surface. They sent me a box in the mail with a full size bottle of the cleaner, along with samples & coupons to hand out. Well, I got the box in the mail Friday & went crazy testing the cleaner out on my house. My verdict is in and I LOVE this stuff! I does an excellent job. I cleaned my glass top stove, the microwave, doors, mirrors, sink and my computer desk. I will use this stuff everyday. The smell is not too bad either, when my son got home from school, he said it smelled like a kindergarten. Ha, I guess that is a good thing. It is not overpowering at all & really does a fantastic job on everything I have tried it on so far.

Go on over to bzzagent.com & get signed up with them!

Menu Planning Made EZ, really!!

I heard about e-mealz while listening to the Dave Ramsey show. I signed up (use coupon code "DAVE" for a discount)

I just signed up yesterday & am really loving it! It is so easy & for us FruGal's, well we can take it to another level by using our coupons. Go check out their site & see some of the sample menu's they have.

From thir site:
Each plan is only $1.25 per week and represents many hours of planning, price shopping, and recipe testing. All of these plans are designed with your whole family in mind, even the specialty plans created for weight management... and now we have plans for just two people.

Other unique features of E-Mealz meal plans:

The dinner menu is concisely organized in a one-page chart (no long recipes or printing several pages - just one sheet to keep up with in your kitchen!)
No wordy instructions - just to the point and easy to follow at-a-glance (for the harried Mom!)
All the side dishes are included in the menu and grocery list
Grocery list is concisely organized, aisle-by-aisle, in a one-page chart
Includes an extra column for you to add "Other Groceries I Need"
The TOTAL COST of your grocery list is given at the bottom (except for the Any Store plans). We work to keep the grocery total at a $75 average.
Necessary staples are listed and organized by meal #
Want to eliminate a meal? Just cross out each grocery item on the grocery list with that corresponding meal # beside it. (Takes just a minute!)
