And while you are at Panera, check out their Unlimited Sip Club. Club members can enjoy coffee, teas & more fountain drinks for free for 2 months!

Happy Holidays Y’all!

Abby H.

As you can tell from the lack of blog posts and social media posts/shares lately, I’ve been swamped. Getting ready for time off school for the kids, traveling to visit friends between Christmas and New Year, shopping, helping family, and busting out my end-of-year to-do list has been exhausting.

I did not do a New Year’s Resolution series this year, but I have done them in the past, and you can find that series of articles here. It includes the top ten NYR’s including saving money and getting organized.

I’ve been using a lot of Canva‘s really great templates for my new organizing stuff (Yes I have paper copies- the ADHD folks in my house need the reminders). It’s free and it’s so easy to use. In addition to the organizing sheets, I’ve made pantry and freezer inventory sheets, calendars, stuff for my day job, birthday party invitations, tutorials- Canva is pretty amazing. And it’s free!

 

Have a wonderful holiday season, whatever you celebrate. After the first of the year, there will be a Target Gift Card giveaway!

Join AARP for only $9/Year (No- You Don’t Have to be a Senior!)

Abby H.

Did you know that you don’t have to be a senior citizen to join AARP?

Seriously.

Did you know that with an AARP membership, you can score discounts and deals on travel, car buying services, and even a lower price on your cell phone contract?

Perhaps my favorite deal is saving money at Denny’s. The cost of membership pays for itself when I take the kids to Denny’s twice in one year.

Right now, in honor of Black Friday, Join AARP and pay just $9 per year with a 5-year membership and choose your FREE Gift: An insulated Trunk Organizer or Red and Gray Spider Splash Day Bag.

AARP provides you with a wealth of opportunities to save money, play, learn, and volunteer.
