Huge Ebay Sale!!

Hey everyone. As most of you know I am a long time and advid ebay seller. I have made a lot of extra money selling my childrens gently used items for extra money towards our household finances. I have also accumulated many things that I have bought (mostly toys) for deep discounts. I have used many of these things for birthday gifts for my childrens friends as well as stocking up during great sales for gifts for my own children! Now....I am cleaning house! I have an ebay store called Cupcakes Boutique. If you have a chance go check it out. I have been a busy bee listing my inventory. Most of the toys I have listed I have listed way below what you would pay for retail. Let's just say I am passing my savings on to you! I can tell you most thigs listed are for about 50-75% off retail price. I simply need it gone!! And these are brand new items. Read the listing just to be sure but most of these toys are new in the package. For all my readers if you find something and would like to purchase it through my store I am offering you a 10% discount on the listed price. Just let me know you read this on my blog and use the code MSABEBAY10! One thing I must charge is a shipping fee however, if you live in my area I would be happy to make arrangements for a pick up to avoid shipping charges. Just email me! Like I said, I have just started listing and have TONS more that will be listed in my store so check back often. I will be listing games, littlest pet shop, bakugan and much more! I will even have some great summer purses I will be listing. This would be a great time to buy some birthday or holiday gifts for a great price!

Oriental Trading Sweet Deal

I know a lot of us like to use Oriental Trading for crafts and b-day part stuff so I thought maybe you could use this deal. The promotion code AVA910 will give you $10 off of $10. You will still have to pay shipping but if you buy clearance items you get get a heck of a deal for only shipping costs!

Next to sweeten the deal...if you don't shop through websites like Mr. Rebates or Big Crumbs you need to go sign up for that first.
These are online Rebate companies. All you do it set up a free account and then click on the store you want to shop thru their site. Their site will then take you directly to the stores site and they track your purchase. Then they will give you a percentage back of your purchase!

If you go through Mr. Rebates and sign up for the first time they will give you a $5 sign up bonus! Hello! Then you will get 3% back on your purchase. Now we are talking about a fantastic deal at Oriental Trading!

If you use Big Crumbs they are giving 4.5% for crumb savers and 2.5% for crumb earners.

Now, here is a bonus:
After you place your order, a pop up will appear for Easy Saver offering you $15 off your next order via rebate. This is simply for trying their company for just over a $1. You have 30 days to try their program and they will give you the $15. So, you know me, I love free trials.
Just make sure to mark the 30 day mark on your calendar with the cancellation phone number so you don't forget. Then, make sure to call an cancel and you get $15 just like that!
I got this great deal from Carrie at Money Saving Methods so be sure to check out her blog. She is incredible at saving money!

$50 For Test Driving a Dodge Ram

This Has Expired!!
Apparently Dodge has pulled this offer down for now! We will let you know if they put it back up!


Carrie over at Money Saving Methods has the scoop on how to get a prepaid $50 Visa gift card just by going and test driving a 2009 Dodge Ram! What an easy way to make $50. I have printed off my certificate and have already informed my hubby he will be test driving a Dodge Ram. He's excited of course. Big trucks, power, argghh, argggh, arggh. I of course am excited about the $50. My husband has also been informed NOT to purchase the truck. That would defeat the purpose and it is NOT in our budget. LOL!

Swagbucks!


Search & Win




I think it is time to introduce you all again to Swagbucks. I posted on this handy search tool a few posts ago. I don't think some of you are listening to me! LOL! Swagbucks is my new favorite search tool. Why? Because every time you do a search you have a chance to win some Swagbucks. Believe me they are not stingy with these things either. I can tell you that everyday I have done a search I have won Swagbucks. And i'm not talking about doing 25 different searches to get a Swagbuck either. I would say on average by the 4 or 5 search I win!

What are Swagbucks? Well, it is virtual money. When you accumulate a certain amount you can go to the Swagbucks store and turn them in for some great prizes. They have a lot of gift cards you can get! I actually have been using Swagbucks for about a month and I just turned in some of my points for a $5 Starbucks gift card. Now to me that is a great free treat for just doing something I always do on the computer, using a search engine. So click on that fancy banner above this post and look around. Sign up and everyday when you are casually searching on your computer go through the Swagbucks search engine (which is powered by google). They will give you a Swagbucks tool bar to put up at the top of your screen so you will always remember to use it first! You can also shop, recycle cell phones, and invite other friends to win Swagbucks even quicker. So what are you waiting for. Your missing out on FREE STUFF!
