Make Money from Your Smartphone While Shopping!

I have three AWESOME apps I need to remind you about: iBotta, Endorse, Plink, and Shopkick. All reward you for doing the shopping you already do! And they're pretty darn easy to use, and therefore to make money! And the best part is ALL of these are free apps, available in the app store!

Endorse is a simple, free way to get cash back for buying your favorite products in stores. Earn anything from 10% up to 100% cash back on your everyday purchases from stores like Walmart, Target, Walgreens, Kroger, Safeway, CVS, Whole Foods, Costco and Trader Joe's. Further, Endorse helps fund local school projects via DonorsChoose.org.

Here's a sample of what my Endorse account looks like.

iBotta works much like an electronic coupon app, but with a fun twist! Take quick surveys, read recipes, and view videos related to particular items-- all to earn higher value coupons for select products. Then after you've purchased these items, scan your receipt to redeem these coupons. (And, yep, this allows you to "stack" store, manufacture, AND iBotta coupons all at once!) If you sign up through my link here, you can get a $5 "friend" bonus! Seriously, you can't lose with this one!!

iBotta is available at countless stores nationwide -- here's a just a few.

Shopkick keeps the spirit of "checking in" to places alive with this clever app. By simply walking in to your favorite stores (Tar-zshay, anyone?) you earn "kicks". If you have a little time to spare, and want a fun little treasure hunt, scan select items for bonus kicks. Kicks can be traded in for gift cards to your favorite stores, like Target, Best Buy, iTunes, Old Navy, and Macy's -- just to name a few!

Plink rewards you for shopping and eating out. Simply attach a card you most use when you shop or eat, and it'll keep track of your spending -- you'll be rewarded with "plink points" based on the amount spent. (Yes, you have to enter your card info, but

Keep on saving! :o)

Ditching the Sponge

Ditching the Sponge This summer I accomplished something I once thought unthinkable: I gave up the sponge. It was a gripping addiction, harder to kick than a nasty nicotine habit. ...a habit that had the ability to spar k the silliest of arguments amongst even the best of roomies. Right, SwimBikeMom ? :P But once again, I digress; that's a blog for another day. Perhaps a tad OCD, I was one of *those* people who had a sponge designated for various parts of the kitchen: one for the floor, one for the counters, and another one for dishes. I knew for quite some time that sponges were a breeding ground for all things disgusting; however, I was not keen on the idea of using paper towels, or other disposable products -- I had to find a GREEN alternative to sponges.
