This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Boost Mobile. All opinions are 100% mine.

Do you use Boost Mobile? I just found out that if you sign up for auto-payments you get a $2 monthly credit, plus a one-time $20 credit for ringtones, wallpapers, or downloads!

Boost Mobile phones are no-contract, so you buy the phone and pay by the month or by the minutes you want to use.  If you run out of minutes, or your month ends, you can Re-Boost and easily add minutes to your phone or sign up for another month.   Boost Mobile has made it easy to re-boost:

  • on-line: one-time payments or set up auto-reoccurring payments with credit or debit cards
  • in-person: enter your zip code and the closest location available will appear
  • pay by phone: one-time payments or set up auto-reoccurring payments with credit or debit cards

You don’t have to own the phone to make a payment on it  -  any friend or family member can make a payment on it.  They just need your Boost Mobile wireless phone number and your name as it appears on their Boost account.   I would consider this a great gift!   If you have teenagers you can get them a Boost Mobile phone and then not pay if they are bad, as their punishment! Also, Boost Mobile phones are great for teens because they connect to Facebook and Twitter and are very social in applications.

I use Facebook daily and Twitter sometimes too. Access from a phone is vital to those of us trying to watch out for every deal!

I have a lot of stores on the cuckoo deals map, but not all stores.

I have time to do 2 more stores per week of full coupon match-ups.  I was thinking of doing Fresh Market and Albertsons.  Or maybe Smith’s.  What do you think would benefit you the most? What match-ups are hard to find?

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Boudreaux’s Butt Paste. All opinions are 100% mine.


Head on over toBoudreaux’s Butt Paste site to get a free sample of their infamous butt paste! What is butt paste, you ask? Well it is just like Destin or any other cream to use on babies bums to heal diaper rash and soothe irritated skin, but better.

I used to think Destin was the best, and gawked at the $5 price tag at Walmart of Boudreaux’s Butt Paste. But after giving it a try, I can see why it is priced a little higher. My daughter who usually screams when she has a rash and is getting cream on it, didn’t seem to mind at all getting the butt paste. Plus, it cleared up her rash quickly, since when I went to change her diaper the next time her rash was gone. My children don’t get rashes too often, so I have actually only used the butt paste cream a few times, but have been extremely impressed each time.

I’ve also read great reviews all over the net, so I think that my experience seems to be the norm.

Here’s some info from Boudreaux’s Butt Paste: It was specifically formulated by a pharmacist with direction from a respected pediatrician to provide effective diaper rash care and is Pediatrician recommended.

Well she just seems so innocent doesn’t she?  9 days ago She was screaming and I wanted to work on my site.  After several unsuccessful attempts at getting her to play with her older sister, I decided to hand her my cell phone just for  a minute so I could finish my post and then go play with her.

Well she ran from the room quick as can be, and 9 days later my cell phone has still never returned.  We’ve even looked in the vents!

We don’t have a house phone.  So for nine days I have been phone-less.   I emailed friends and family to tell people to email me because I didn’t have a phone and didn’t want to buy a new one. You would have thought I said I was going top-less; people were really shocked that someone could go without a phone.   I decided I am too frugal to buy a new one, I know people lived for centuries without phones, well I could do it too.

I decided to be The Ultimate Frugalista – no cell phone or home/land phone!
