Tip #111: Are you short or long-waisted....

Women often are said to be either short-waisted or long-waisted. To figure out where your waist falls within your overall physique — your “waistedness” — follow these simple steps:

  1. Measure the distance between your armpit and your waist.
  2. Measure the distance between your waist and the bottom of your bum.
  3. Compare the measurements.
    If the two measurements aren’t equal, you’re either short- or long-waisted: If the first measurement is shorter, you’re short-waisted. If the second measurement is shorter, you’re long-waisted.

#110: Use Kohl's Cash On-line and Save MORE!

I went to bed on a total high last night after the HUGE deal (81% off) I got last night on http://www.kohls.com/. I had Kohl's cash that was going to expire and I had no time to get to the store.  There was no way I was going to lose 'free' $20.
Did you know you could use Kohl's cash on-line? 
Then, I stacked coupon codes AND got 6% cash back.... here are the details.
  1. Went to ShopAtHome Banner (www.ShopatHome.com)
  2. Find Kohl's and click on the coupon code you want to open the www.kohls.com/ window.
  3. Shop. Add the item to your bag.  I chose a non-wrinkle white shirt for my husband... originally $65, on sale for $39.
  4. Check out. Type in your Kohl's cash codes.  Shirt is now $19.00.
  5. YOU CAN STACK PROMO CODES (up to 2).  I used my Kohl's charge to use a 30% off promo code.  Then I entered a promo code for free shipping.  The shirt is now $13.30.
  6. Don't forget the 6% cash back!  NOW the shirt is $12.50!!!  Originally, $65!!! That is a 81% savings!

#109: Discounted Gift Cards PLUS Cash Back

Save on gifts for others (and items for yourself) by buying gift cards at a discount on-line.  

Today I compared www.plasticjungle.com, www.giftcards.com, and www.Giftcardgranny.com.  Basically, they all work the same.

To get an even better deal:
  • www.ShopAtHome.com gives 3.5% cash back on purchases from www.Giftcards.com.  Yes, that means you get a discount on the card AND cash back.... saving even more!
  • www.Ebates.com gives 1% cash back on purchases from www.plasticjungle.com.

#108: How to use Ebates.com to get 3% Cash Back on Groupons!

In the past few days, I have overheard so many people talking about buying Groupons for Christmas.  I tell everyone to go to www.Ebates.com first to get 3% cash back and they look at me like it is way too complicated.  IT IS NOT COMPLICATED!

Here is what you do....
  1. DO NOT BUY DIRECTLY FROM www.GROUPON.com!!!
  2. Go to www.Ebates.com.  Sign-in (or sign-up)
  3. Search for Groupon.
  4. Click on the Groupon (3% cash back) link.  It will open www.Groupon.com.  THEN, buy the Groupon.  
  5. www.Ebates.com will send out a check after you reach $20.00 in cash back savings.
