Let’s face it – every now and then we all eat out right?  With this weather being able to eat out AND play is a nice.com/bo.  While honestly we haven’t been inside a burger king in a long time we might venture back for a visit.

I thought you might also like to know that Burger King has a new promotion called Dash and Dine.  If you pay with your Visa until March 1st, customers who use their Visa card at participating Burger King restaurants have a chance to eat for free.

  • Every day, 50 winners will be selected to “eat free” on Burger King and Visa, by receiving the cost of their meal (up to $25)
  • During Dash and Dine hours (Tuesday and Thursdays from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m..), two winners will win 50x the cost of their meal! (a $500  value)

More detailed information and official rules available at BK Dash and Dine.

Haha it’s ok if you said no…but if you do I have exciting news for you!

Starting next Thursday February 25th at 9PM EST/6PM PST, GauchoTV will be streaming live, each week, every week.

For their first show, Marv & I will be chatting. We”ll discuss ways to save, of course, plus we have prizes to give away ($25 Gift Cards to Target), answer questions, give you the low-down on what websites and savings blogs to follow, and even explain how you, yes you!, can start blogging.

The BEST part is you can LIVE tweet/email in your questions and we’ll try to get them all answered!  Did you see the last GauchoCast with Marv & I – here is just a taste of what this Thursday will be like, but live!

I’ve had MANY readers email me and ask “How do I start a blog?”  That’s such a HUGE question, but now I have an answer and it couldn’t be a better one!  Have you ever come to The Frugal Find and thought – I could do that but I just don’t know how to get started. Well the good news is the starting part has been done for you!  Gaucho is giving you your own free blog on GauchoPages. So if you’re not into designing your own blog, but you want to talk savings, Gaucho is the place to do it.  Why is Gaucho doing this?  Because they love talking about savings (who doesn’t?), they love blogs (so do I!), they love giving you free stuff (me too!!), and they think you’re going to love your GauchoPage.  Setup is a snap and the designs are sweet.  What are you waiting for?

If you already have a blog, you can import your RSS feed and share your goods with the Gaucho crowd.  If you sign up and start a page, let me know and I’ll feature you here on The Frugal Find!

So will you be there this Thursday February 25th at 9PM EST/6PM PST?

Blogiversary Giveaway #1 – H&R Block Deluxe At Home Software
Blogiversary Giveaway #2 – (5) $20 Alice.com Gift Certificates
Blogiversary Giveaway #3 – $50 Safeway Gift Card

We love Quiznos (especially my husband) the price is right and they are very tasty! We have one right down the street from the Farmer’s Market we like to frequent, it’s really fun to pick up Quiznos and have a picnic dinner, listening to live music, and watching the kids play on the playground.  Summer…please come soon.

Ok so not to totally rag on Subway, but when you use the term “ANY” in your promotions, please – you really should mean ANY!  I tried to order one of their $5.00 footlongs only to find out it wasn’t one of the “ANY” footlongs on the special.

Right now Quiznos has a great special running, here are the details:

With the recent launch of the Quiznos Choose 2 menu, which features several low-calorie meal.com/bos, as well as vitamin enriched breads, Quiznos is proving that you can make smart choices while grabbing food on the go. Below is some additional information:

  • Quiznos is offering fortified breads that provide customers with eight essential vitamins, antioxidants, vitamin E and zinc
  • Quiznos Choose 2 menu allows customers to select two entrees (toasty bullets, flatbread sammies, soups or salads) for just $5

Not bad huh?  How does a $1.00 off the Choose 2 Menu sound, wow!  They also have a BOGO coupon available for their Regular Subs (not valid on Choose 2 menu).  These coupons expire 2/21/10.

To Enter the Giveaway: Do one (or more) of the following, for each # you do, you get a separate entry.

1. Comment – Where are you reading from and what’s your favorite topic on The Frugal Find?  I’d love to get to know you all a little better!

2.  Subscribe as a new reader (or let me know you’re already a reader).

Blogiversary Giveaway #2 – (5) $20 Alice.com Gift Certificates

My store of choice is Safeway – it’s hard to beat their sales when matched with just the right coupons!  I often save 75% and higher on my shopping trips to Safeway.  Did you see my 91% saved shopping trip to Safeway?  How would you like to get $50 worth of Safeway groceries FOR FREE?!   Now is your chance , one lucky Frugal Find reader will win a $50 Safeway Gift Card courtesy of MyBlogSpark and Fiber One yogurt. The gift card can also be used at Dominick´s, Tom Thumb, Randalls, Vons, Genuardi´s.

Before I give you the speal about FIber One yogurt I have to say I really truly LOVE this yogurt.  It is by far my favorite, I’d even pay full price for it if I had to!

Best-selling author and food expert Lisa Lillien, AKA Hungry Girl, has given her “seal of approval” to the new Fiber One yogurt, the only leading nonfat yogurt with 50 calories and 5 grams of fiber (20 percent of the Recommended Daily Value). It is also a good source of calcium and vitamins A and D, making this a guilt-free and all-around great choice for dieters and those watching their weights. Each cup includes the creamy, delicious taste you expect from Yoplait, and you don´t have to feel guilty about enjoying it. Fiber One is available in a variety of flavors including, Strawberry, Peach, Vanilla and Key Lime Pie.

The great people at Oroweat gave me a bunch of coupons to share with my readers this weekend at Blissdom, I wasn’t planning on putting this giveaway up so soon but I just got Safeway’s ad and starting tomorrow there is an in-ad coupon to get Oroweat bread for $1.99 a loaf!  If you pair that in-ad coupon with these $1/1 coupons, they are only $0.99 a loaf!

Tomorrow at 4pm PST I will select at random 5 lucky readers who will each win (4) $1/1 Oroweat coupons.  They will be mailed off as soon as they respond with their contact information so you can hopefully take advantage of this week’s Safeway offer (or any other store’s offer at anytime).  They don’t expire until 12/31/10.

Just a heads up for my locals too, a reader left acomment saying that FoodsCo was an affiliate with Kroger, and sure enough!  So this giveaway will work for you too!

Head on over to enter!

I can’t wait until I have a chance to share with you my shopping trip to FoodsCo – a Kroger Affiliate store.  The deals they feature as a part of their Price Beater (beating out Winco) are GREAT!  However as a whole, I wasn’t impressed by the prices. You can see their ad here, and see some of the other deals I did as well.  *Jennie-O-Turkey*

One of the highlights was this deal (and you don’t have to buy 10 to get the sale price)

Oscar Mayer Bologna 10/$10
$1/1 Oscar Mayer Bologna = Free after coupon!

Giveaway ends January 31st, hurry on over here to enter!

Shannon with Hold ‘Em Photography has graciously offered 1 Frugal Find reader a complete Family Photo Session at no charge!  Her work is beauttiful and she is local to The Frugal Find!  This is a giveaway you should be  sure to enter.

You can view her work and read more about Shannon here.
She just sent me an email with her latest special – her mini sessions are going for only $120!  These come complete with your photos on a CD – which is an incredibly generous offer!
Here are the mini session details from Shannon:
“It is a thirty minute session.  I will meet the client at their home or outdoor location of their choice. They will get to choose their favorite 10 edited images on a CD to be used however they wish. They will have the option to purchase additional images if they like or gallery prints, etc…but they have no obligation to do so.  This is a great way for people to get a really high end photo session and great images without breaking their budget.”
