What YOU can do to help!

-
Okay, so you may have noticed that I didn't post many deals today.

Some of that was because there weren't very many outstanding deals, and I try to bring you only the BEST. Some of that is because we are actively trying to find a new vehicle that will hold 3 car seats, has decent mileage, a low price and a couple of amenities . . . you can pray for us about that.

But this post is actually a bit of shameless self-promotion. This week several of you mentioned that you were excited about the blog and the deals that it represents. I want to tell you that the best thing you can do to help this blog be as successful as possible and bring you the coolest stuff is to #1 - subscribe through email or RSS and #2 - recommend it to your friends.

I have been contacted about doing a couple of possible product reviews and giveaways which would mean that each of you would have the opportunity to win really cool stuff. But the hangup is that the marketing departments of these various companies want to get the most bang for their buck - so they are going to generally choose the blogs with the best circulation to offer the best deals. So it will help me and help you if you spread the word to your friends and family about the fun stuff we talk about here and how much money you save!

An easy way to do that is to follow this link - just make sure your name and address appear at the top of the form, then enter the email addresses you want to send it on to and what you want to tell them about the blog and it will send the message for you. Of course, you can always just type your own email and refer them back to melissastuff.blogspot.com.

Thank you for all you do to make this fun and keep it going. Without you, I wouldn't be doing any of this ;)

    Melissa, our Ford Expedition has been great for three car seats. They all sit in the second row and I have room for the double stroller in the back. We'll be looking for an Expedition XL, (little larger in the very far back for storage) soon as we hope to add a fourth to our crew of boys! Surely there are some that you can find with low mileage!

GIVEAWAY: Practical Designs’ Shopping Cart Covers

-
Image
With my first two boys we used a couple of different shopping cart/restaurant high chair covers – one was handmade by a family member and the other was store bought. Neither worked well. Maybe my ability to juggle baby, cover and seat is lacking, but I was never successful at getting the seat on, the baby in and everyone settled without something going wrong. Then the handmade one practically shredded in the washing machine and the store bought ended up sold in a consignment sale. So, I knew that we would be starting over with Weston and I really wanted one that had elastic all the way around so it fit whatever seat you put it on and had its own belt so that you don’t have to run the yucky one from the cart or high chair through the seat and around the baby. At Practical Designs I found the perfect solution. There is a reason that this shop has 100% positive feedback after over 100 reviews. Practical Designs sent me the Retro Dot Cover , seen below. As you can tell from this p

Exciting Giveaway - $25 Gift Certificate

I’m excited to tell you about our latest giveaway. Lately there have been some great deals from a new deal site from adpages.com. I’ve recently decided to partner with Adpages and bring you some more INCREDIBLE opportunities. The first step was trying out their services. So I used a credit to purchase their Clix! portrait deal . I was able to get a potrait sitting and a disk with 5 images on it for just $49. I have to admit that this is definitely my preferred way of getting pictures as prints can be VERY inexpensively made on the Internet but frequently cost an arm and a leg from the photographer directly. Besides, in our family the grandparents are generally the ones who purchase the pictures and so it doesn’t work for me to have to pick and pay at the time of the sitting. Weston just turned 6 months old and he is absolutely precious. I wanted to make sure we got a good glimpse of his personality in these pictures. I think Clix! did just that . . . I'm telling you -
