Saving Money-- Ebates.com

In this quest of being a great and simple Momma, I have found myself shopping online more than ever since its easy and I can do it at any time of the day and no one cares what I look like (well David cares but I digress).  This kind of simplicity is what Simply Momulous is all about.  While shopping online, I have been using ebates.com, where you can get cash back for shopping for the things you buy already.  Joining is free and they don't spam you like other sites-- its really great!

Since using this site to start my shopping adventures, I have saved money through using promotions I didn't know about and have received about $50 cash back, so far. I know many others have earned more, but I am lucky enough to be able to curb my spending but I just earned 25% off  plus 4% cash back at Old Navy for boxers for David and 40% off and 10% cash back from Walgreens for our Christmas cards. I know you probably like Amazon just like I do, and there are even ebates for Amazon! Click on the link and join the savings.

**Note, this is not a paid post, but if you do follow the links in this post and join the site, I will receive cash back from ebates, and I thank you in advance.**

Family Dollar Christmas Lights Recalled from 2011

Did you buy these lights last year from Family Dollar, maybe at the end of the season to save some money??? You may want to reconsider using them if you are getting ready to decorate for Christmas, since they do not follow the UL code and can catch your house on fire or give you or your family an electric shock. Check out the full press release from the CPSC.
