Save $$ on Prescriptions with SingleCare!

I am all about saving money any way I can, y’all know this! Everyone in our house has at least two daily prescription meds. It seriously adds up. That’s why I was excited to learn about SingleCare.

SingleCare is a free service that helps you save money on your prescriptions. Sign up with SingleCare and receive a free prescription discount card and new users receive a $3 Off Coupon on the first eligible prescription you fill, just for signing up.

SingleCare offers discounts on 10,000+ brand-name and generic drugs. Save up to 80% on the retail or “cash” price.

Next time you fill a prescription, tell your pharmacist you have a SingleCare coupon card, and ask them to fill and process your prescription with it. They’ll input the magic numbers and apply your savings.

Score Free Products with Home Tester Club

I’ve written about Home Tester Club before, and it’s still pretty cool.

How it works: You sign up to review items and they send you something. A lot of the time they don’t notify you before shipping, you’ll get a package in the mail and a few days later, you’ll get an email notifying you that you were selected and a link to the survey to complete once you have sampled the product.

Over the past six years, I’ve received home goods, personal care items, toys, and pet supplies- all for free!

Right now they are actively recruiting for the following:

April is Financial Literacy Month

Financial literacy is near and dear to my heart. I’ve spent much of my adult life working hard to save money, pay bills on time, and live within my means. It is a lot of effort and work, but, it’s made my life less stressful.

In 2020, I wrote a three-part series about making a practical budget that a family can adhere to and how to get some extra help if you need it. This was written during the pandemic, so there is a lot of information and resources, especially for those feeling the financial panic that many felt during the height of the pandemic.

If you already have a budget or feel that your spending is out of control and you aren’t to the point yet where you feel that you need a budget, I did a series of posts in late 2019 about how to reign in the out-of-control spending.

 A big part of financial literacy is tracking where you stand financially. With identity theft happening to 22% of Americans (per a 2022 Bureau of Justice Statistics study), knowing what’s on your credit is important.  Obtaining your free annual credit report is easy.  Free Annual Credit Report is the site that I use.

Once you receive it, go over and verify all of the open accounts are yours. Contact the credit bureaus immediately if there are any incorrect names, addresses, or accounts.

If you are saving for your future, or your kid’s future, here are two great savings opportunities:

Savings bonds- Savings Bonds: The gift that keeps on giving!

529’s/ Educational Savings Accounts- September Is College Savings Month!

Free Downloadable Birthday kits from Netflix!

Check out this cool Freebie! If you’ve got a kiddo who likes any of the following shows, these printables may be great for their next birthday party!

Netflix is offering free downloadable birthday party kits, only on NetflixFamily.com! Fans of Hot Wheels Let’s RaceAvatar: The Last Airbender, and CoComelon Lane can celebrate their birthdays with printable invitations, banners, cupcake toppers, and food labels featuring characters from their favorite show!

Kids Bowl Free- It’s Back for Summer 2024!

file0001910298986.jpgThis popped into my inbox last night. I’m so glad it’s back.

Looking for something fun, air-conditioned, and cheap to do this summer with the kids?

Kids Bowl Free has been around for years, and it’s a great way to get kids active even when it’s hot outside. I’m so excited it’s back again.

Kids 2-18 can bowl 2 games for free each day the program is running at participating bowling centers all across the US and Canada. All you pay for is shoe rental- or bring your own if you have them!kidsbowlfree_logo-new-2019.jpg

This program is available all over the US and Canada. The complete list can be found here. Sign up is quick and easy. To get started, register here. If you live in San Diego, the only bowling alley participating is Aztec Lanes.

I encourage everyone to take advantage of this deal! It’s one of our favorite summer activities.
