Day #52.2: Friday Top Five

1. Internet Deals...

Being broke I am constantly trolling the internet to find the best deals. There's a few e-mail subscriptions I have found that I absolutely love and appreciate, especially during my time of financial issues. 

First, Pick Your Plum...each day this website posts a deal. It's usually some sort of craft supply, which of course I love! Sometimes they post jewelry, sometimes little notebooks...regardless, the items are always cute and usually 60% off. If you subscribe to their e-mail, you're more likely to get the item you want because they often sell out! I highly recommend.

Second, Brad's Deals. It's an awesome website that shows you all the internet deals. You can subscribe to the e-mail and receive awesome deals right to your inbox. The website also allows you to search to coupon codes. Love!

And third, MyHabit. MyHabit is founded by Amazon and is a private fashion sale site that offers 60% off hand-selected designer items. Also, AMAZING and sells fast! I highly recommend subscribing to the e-mail.

2. BirchBox

I finally received my BirchBox subscription invite! To learn more about BirchBox click here.

3. Love bracelet

I ordered this super cute bracelet from a shop on Etsy at the end of August. Since it ships from China, I finally received it this week. It's super cute and I am excited to find the perfect outfit to wear it with! Visit the shop here. The best part? It was only $8.99!

4. SongPop

SongPop is a very addicting Facebook game where you try to guess songs and/or artists faster than your opponent. Hubby and I started playing this week. Great homework distraction.

5. Two Days off from work so I can blog, do homework, do chores and relax! Aaah...

Before you leave, please link-up at The Grant Life!

And with Lauren!

Until later,

Big, beautiful & broke... Chelsea

Day #33: Discount Shopping

Today was a mostly productive day. Spent the first half of the day cleaning and organizing. Second half I spent trolling around the internet. The dining room is coming together nicely, just need to get the china cabinet in and we should be done! I also started working on the craft room. I have made progress. My desk can officially be used as a "Creativity Station". I have lots of jewelry orders to get caught up on!

Clutter and Organization Tip of the Day:



Have lots of old magazines or pages of magazines just laying around? Buy a cheap 3-ring binder and plastic pages to store articles that you want to keep! I have home decor, recipes, organization ideas, etc all stored in one convenient binder. Decreases clutter and helps you stay organized!

Also, found the treasure of the internet: Coach Handbag Outlet-ONLINE STORE Beautiful Coach purses for $58...perfect for you girls on a budget! I personally have 43 on my wish-list. Yes, I will keep dreaming. 

Another fun discount internet shopping site: My Discount New deals added daily. Cute, fun stuff!
