Savertime has a deal today for one of my favorite beauty tools of all time – the flat iron.  For $89.99 they have 3 pack of ISO Beauty tools, ISO Beauty’s ceramic plated straightener, curling wand, and mini straightener – FREE shipping included!  I never knew that my hair could be silky and smooth until just a couple of years ago.  My hair has that ever annoying couple of waves intermixed with straight streaks.  I always thought, give me curls or give me straight but this in-between thing is just annoying!  Then I discoverd the flat iron and I lived happily ever after.

The best part is that Savertime has generously given me the opportunity to give a set of these to giveaway to one TFF reader.  How fun is that?!

Teaching your children how to manager their money from an early age I believe is vital to their success as adults financially.  They’re watching our every move and when it comes to finances,  if you’re a big spender with no thought about tomorrow they’ll see that.  If you’re a giver and often give above and beyond, they see that too.  However you can be very wise financially and set your children up with a generous college savings, but if you have haven’t talked to them about budgeting and finances, you’ve missed a key piece of the puzzle.

Sure children watch and learn by what they seeing us doing, but even more so by what we speak to them about and the principles we teach them.  Using practical tools, show them how you budget your money each month.   Let them see you saving up for a big ticket item.  Keep them tuned into your your debt payment plan.  Kid’s don’t need specifics, but allowing them to be a part of the process is invaluable.  Our kid’s are often thinking of ways they can add to our debt snowball plan – so we’ll be having a garage sale soon!

To help with this task, we’re going to give 1 Frugal Find reader and their family a Dave Ramsey Kids Money Education Monster Pack.

Give kids a head start on financial responsibility with this special bundle from Dave Ramsey. You’ll receive Financial Peace Junior, the new Junior’s Adventures six-CD audio set, and a kids’ bank.  Designed for ages 3 to 12, Financial Peace Junior includes hands-on activities and lessons to teach children the value of earning money. It comes complete with a parents’ guide, kids’ activity book, an audio book, dry erase chore chart, a calculator, and envelopes for giving, saving, and spending.

We blew right through the first $50 Amazon gift card from ReClip.It! Congrats to reader Brad for taking the big win last time around. They said if we got to 250 new followers here on TFF we could give another $50 Amazon gift card away and I’m pretty sure we hit that the first day, so here we go with another one!  If we get to 500 followers we’ll give away yet another $50 Amazon gift card – how awesome is that?!

If you haven’t heard of ReClip.It! you’re in for a treat.  It’s just like Pinterest but it’s just for deals, coupons, freebies, etc.  How can you not love that?!   Basically you “clip” deals into your personalized folders, invite your friends to follow you and follow your favorite deal finders (such as The Frugal Find).  If we’re all clipping/sorting/organizing deals it’s going to be hard to let any of the good ones slip by.

The best part is that because of the simplicity of the process I’ll be able to “clip” many more deals than I’m actually able to post here on TFF. Plus I have the idea to create folders geared toward specific regions such as for my Bay Area readers!

Here is a the basic breakdown…

  • ReClip.It is a new site that allows you to follow specific deal experts that you love and get notified every time they clip a deal or coupon, you can follow The Frugal Find here!
  • You can reclip deals that you see on Reclip.It onto your own personal folders.
  • Invite friends to follow or collaborate with you in your folders so you discover more deals!
I’m fairly new to this but so far I’ve started a few folders and you can follow any or all of them…
.
.
Now this program is still in Beta and is by invite only.  ReClip.It has asked me to share it with YOU!  As a part of the Beta launch they’ve offered me a $50 Amazon Gift Card to giveaway to one TFF reader.

Now head on over to ReClip.It and get signed up then come back and get your entries in!  This giveaway will end on Sunday night 3/18 at midnight EST (9 PM PST).  If we get over 500 followers ReClip.It is going to give us another $50 Amazon gift card to giveaway, so start following!
