Give Me Back My Five Bucks Contest

As a college student, financial burdens are constantly weighing me down and causing anxiety. One way I find helpful in reducing this anxiety is to create a list of my future financial plans. This financial bucket list helps me organize my priorities and make better financial decisions.

Mine includes:

1. Pay off my car in 2 years
2. Pay off all of my credit cards
3. Save up 2000 to go on an amazing cruise in 4 years
4. Pay off my school loans (this may take awhile)

Do you have a financial bucket list?

Right now you can enter to win $500 to use to begin checking off that list in the Give Me Back My Five Bucks contest. This contest is sponsored by Life Insurance Finder, the life insurance experts. Just follow the entry guidelines on their post to enter.

This post is my entry into the $500 Give Me Back My Five Bucks competition.

Robotic Vacuum Giveaway at Momma Told Me

I hate vacuuming and try to avoid it at all costs. Sadly, this isn't always possible when living with 4 cats and a dog that sheds regularly.

I would love to win this awesome technology as it would save me so much time and energy. Hey, if I had this, my carpets may even look beige for the first time in a while. Gross, I know, but its the truth.

If you would like a chance at winning a NEATO XV-11 Robotic Vacuum, just fill out the simple rafflecopter form at Momma Told Me.  Giveaway ends 12:01 AM EST on November 28th, 2011 and is open to US only. Good luck!

After a looong absence, time to post about a giveaway!

Well.... long time no post, huh? School has been crazy these last semesters so I have had pretty much no "giveaway" time hence the long absence. Now, hopefully I will be able to start up again but no like I did before since I am in school now. Anyway, on to my giveaway post....

So... I have never owned a video camera and would REALLY like to. My animals are always doing the most hilarious things and I have no way of sharing the amusing antics.
