PLEASE NOTE…THIS IS A CONTEST, NOT A GIVEAWAY WHICH MEANS YOU WILL HAVE TO PUT SOME THOUGHT INTO YOUR ANSWER.

Not only is Nickelodeon famous for Nicktoons, Nick Jr., and Nick at Nite—They also have a sister site called Noggin that I am a HUGE fan of.  My little guy watches Noggin because the show is aimed at preschool-aged and early elementary-school-aged children.  Their website is very toddler friendly and I let my little guy on their frequently and I highly recommend both website and channel.

HOW TO ENTER:

Leave a comment telling me your BEST HOLIDAY MONEY SAVING TIP.  Best HOLIDAY money saving tip!!!  Please put some thought into your answer folks.

ONLY 2 TIPS PER PERSON PLEASE!!!

After all entries are carefully read, the judges will pick their favorite top 20 Holiday Money Saving Tips.  Those 20 entries will be put into a draw, where one winner will be randomly chosen.

In the event that there are identical tips given by different entrants that make the 20, it is at the judge’s discretion to choose which one gets thrown on the hopper.

If you haven’t noticed already, this blog was nominated for some bloggers choice awards.  I’m quite embarassed about it because I don’t think my blogs are good enough to be nomininated.  Nevertheless, A Cowboy’s Wife was nominated for Best Photography blog, Best Blog Design, and….oh gosh….Hottest Mommy Blogger.  HOT?  I don’t think so.  I have no clue who did this but if you want to vote for me, you click on those badges in the sidebar.  OH…My Wooden Spoon was nominated for the Best Food blog too by the same person.

My Scratchback TopSpots are about filled!  Thank you to all my backscratchers!  I very much appreciate you picking my blog to “advertise” on.  Speaking of advertise….I have a new ‘advertise here’ link in the sidebar, right above my FEED ME info.  I have pretty good stats for this blog and it would be worth it to advertise with me.  Give it some consideration.

I won a cookbook from my Valgal:) WOOHOO!! Who doesn’t love winning something? NOT me!  Thank you Val, I can’t wait to get my new cookbook.  You should visit her blog.  She has some wonderful recipes and started a food meme that’s fun to do! 

I’ve got another $500 American Express gift card on it’s way!!! It was shipped on Monday:)  I finally let people in on the secret on how I do this…I mean the EXACT steps I take.  If you want to know how, you can read more here. 

If you like to see other people’s earnings, then you can take a peek at mine that I made from my other blog.  I didn’t include what I’ve made on this or my other 2 blogs though.  I don’t show them very often so peek while you can.

Keep checking back because surprises are in store:D

Now I’m off to figure out how to rearrange the bedrooms for some added space.  I should by one of those big platform beds so I can use the under storage.  Do you got any makeover tips that will help me make the most of my space?
