PostHeaderIcon Hey Josh, and Coupons!

[Psst – have you entered the sweepstakes today? What are you waiting for? It’s right over there! ———>]

headerribbon-1-4A couple goodies for you today!

First off, thanks to my BFF in California and the Bakersfield Californian, today’s PSA is all about the Coupon Cutting at Save At Home Mommy!

Now, a lot of these coupons don’t work for me, being as I live in Alaska and we don’t have the same stores – but a lot of them do, too – and when you’re feeding a gazillion teenagers and their friends, you know it’s all about pinching those pennies until it HURTS. Kerri Scarlett understands, and delivers daily deals and coupons to print out – and even recipes to go with some of the sales she discovers! Today, for instance, London Broil is on sale at Albertsons for $1.79/lb – and she includes several ideas of what to do with the meat to help it stretch farther, as well as links to some recipes to help get you started.

There’s also Frugal Finds Friday – where everyone helps finding exciting deals across the country – so be sure to check it out! That extra buck or two you save could mean an extra Diet Coke for Mom! :)

Even better? Free Chocolate Friday. INORITE?

So check out saveathomemommy.com today!

Next up, it’s Hey Josh!

I’ve featured him a couple times before, and the link to his site is right down there on the sidebar too – Josh Shipp is funny, engaging, and “In your face, but on your side!” With his snark and fun and honest take on honest problems – including unsolicited advice to the Australian Girl who got lost in a storm drain and instead of using her cell phone to call for help – used it to update her Face Book Status with a call for help.

Yeah. I know.

ANYWAY! Josh has a couple new exciting projects – one is a weekly advice show on youtube. Every Wednesday, Josh answers emails and gives some honest and real helpful hints on how to deal with everyday trials our teens face. And he has the Owl of Wisdom. Who doesn’t love an Owl of Wisdom?!!? Here’s the most recent show…

Josh has another project coming up too – a television show called “Jump Shipp” where it’s not all about his dating life, which was my first thought because I’m really 12, but about helping those who want to leave the job they hate and jump ship to a career they find rewarding and fun. It’s going to be on the Halogen network, and you can read more about it here!

Ask PTB!
No, I'm not a professional anything (except maybe a professional PITA, but the pay sucks!), but sometimes, parents of teenagers have questions, and sometimes? it's simply easier to ask some snarky woman on the internet, just to talk it out. I am that snarky woman. Ask away, folks, and I'll answer you on the blog. :)

Attention!

Hey - all this drivel I spout out about here? It's mine. I wrote it, designed it, slapped it together except where quoted from folks who asked me to write about'em, and stuff otherwise noted and cited. That means it's mine - not yours. So play nice, be a good sport, and keep your grubby mitts off - this is my stuff, get your own!
