You know I love a good deal… so that’s why I adore buying 2nd hand gift cards online! Last week, I checked raise.com for a Build-A-Bear gift card right before taking Miss L to the store for her birthday. In 2 minutes, I had purchased a $25 gift card for $17, had it delivered to my inbox and printed out the credit to use at the store. It’s also great to check it RIGHT BEFORE you hit submit on your shopping cart, so you can save even more money after your coupon codes and rebate offers!

My mom and I used a little trick when we flew to San Antonio for the Alamo Bowl. The return flights on Southwest were crazy expensive and all had at least 1 stopover. So I started pricing out one-way trips between those stopovers, I realized we could get a much cheaper ticket for a little bit longer of a layover. So we went through Las Vegas, had a crazy buffet dinner on the Strip, and went back and got on our plane. And all of that was still cheaper than paying the original fare!

Skiplagged.com basically works the same way, but takes out the headache of a million different searches for you. It does mean that you have to fly with a carry-on, but at these savings, you might just ship your luggage instead!

Tsum Tsums.

The game (for Android and iOS). The adorable little stuffed animals. The big stuffed animals. They’re all insanely cute and I’m insanely hooked. Miss L loves to hijack my phone and asks to play it as well. There are some great tips here if you want to play and maximize your coins/points/collections.
