Upcoming JCP Kid’s Craft Events!

Abby H.

Are you heading to the mall on 3/8/2025? Check out this fun, free craft from JCPenney’s.

Visit the Kids Zone inside JCPenney and kids can crate this cute rainbow mobile.

Parents/Adults score a 10% off coupon, which can be combined with another coupon. JCP Coupons can be found here.

April’s Craft is a cute foam finger puppet collection. April 12, 2025.

JCPenney hosts a fun craft event in store for kids on the second Saturday of each month.  They are easy for kids, and fun, free activity.

While you are there, make sure to join their Rewards Program. There are a lot of great benefits, and it’s free to join. I do a lot of our shopping at JCP. They are very size-inclusive, have great prices/sales, and support diversity in the communities in which they are located.

In-store events are only where local mandates allow.  All kids must be accompanied by an adult.

Rebate App Round-Up!

Abby H.

I post about rebate apps a lot. They are one of my favorite ways to try new products.

Paper coupons are seemingly a thing of the past, and apps are where it’s at these days.

Most of them work the same:

  • Select offers that you are interested in and opt in.
  • Visit your local store and purchase the item(s). Most apps/websites will give you a list of stores selling the item(s).
  • Submit the receipt (and sometimes you have to scan the UPC of the product) via the website/app/text message.
  • Funds are usually sent via Venmo or Paypal. If you haven’t signed up for Venmo, check out my post about it here.

I mostly use my Venmo account for rebates. I have a Venmo card to access the funds.

Here are a few of my favorite rebate apps:

Sometimes savings apps like Ibotta have free after rebate offers. They are usually retailer-specific and only valid for a short amount of time.

February 2025: New Healthy Freebies From Social Nature!

Abby H.

 If you are into Organic/Natural/Healthy products, then Social Nature is right up your alley. Sign up and apply to sample products that you are interested in. I usually receive 4-6 offers/freebies per month, sometimes more if I have time to shop. And most of the time it’s full-size products, not just a tiny sample.

In addition to the offers where they mail you a coupon for a free product, Social Nature has started offering 100% cash-back, similar to Ibotta and Fetch Rewards. I love this because I can select exactly what I want, Social Nature tells me which local stores have it, and I can add it to my next shopping list.

And it’s just as easy as Ibotta and Fetch Rewards. Snap a pic and upload it. You can select Venmo, Paypal, or an Amazon Gift Card for your rebate.

Here are just a few of the offers available now:

      • High Protein Gluten Free Bread by Unbun Foods
      • Italian Protein Pasta by BRAMI
      • Gluten-Free Fajita Dip by Fresh Cravings
      • Organic Cara Cara Oranges by Sunkist
      • Organic Kimbaps by Ocean’s Halo
      • Afia Foods Falafel
      • Zero Sugar Collagen Tea by Pretty Tasty
      • Probiotic Kombucha by Humm Kombucha
