How To Enter A Giveaway!

I have seen and heard much confusion when it comes to entering one of my giveaways! I understand it can be confusing, so I have been wanting to show you to make it easier for both of us!! Here is an explanation, with pictures for those of you that are visual learners like myself! I hope this helps everyone! If you have any more questions, just let me know!

We are going to start by pretending we are on Facebook~ Most of you come to my site from here so we are taking it from the beginning!


This is what one of my posts look like on Facebook. You will usually find a link that I have put on Facebook from my website (coupondealsandsteals.blogspot.com). The arrow is pointing to that link. Click that link (blue words) and it will take you to my website and that post.


Okay, now you are on my website and are at the post I have directed you to and you have clicked on.

The top arrow is showing you that you are now on my website. The second arrow is showing you what a post is.

Now, you are ready to read the post and listen to all the intelligent things I have to say! LOL! At the bottom of the post you will come to the comment form! This is where you enter for the giveaway!

Simply enter a comment in the box telling me you did one of the requirements for the giveaway and hit Post! You will repeat if you are doing more than one requirement! You may not see your comment right away as I have to approve it!!

So...that's it! That wasn't too hard, was it? I hope that helps you understand how to enter giveaways so you can now become a giveaway maniac!!!

Products That Save You Money ~ Plus Giveaways!

If you stay up late enough, you can't switch the channel without seeing at least one infomercial that promises this and swears it will do that! Most of these products are probably stretching their capabilities as fast as they are stretching your wallets! However, there are products out there that SAVE you money and are worth the initial investment! I am going to share with you my 3 FAVORITE money saving products that I use on a regular/everyday basis.


#1 Top Money Saving Product- The Suds Pump From Pampered Chef!

This refillable soap pump mixes soap and water to create foam making liquid soap last 10 times longer. I have one in the kitchen to help me save money as I wash sooooo many bottles right now! I need to get another one to put the kids soap in and my bodywash in! My kids can go through a bottle of soap in a week if I'm not careful!

Initial Investment: $11.50



#2 Top Money Saving Product-FridgeSmart System From Tupperware!

Virtually any fresh-picked produce will last longer and taste better. Fruits and vegetables have different airflow needs when stored in the fridge. You can regulate the airflow within the container and maintain peak freshness thanks to a unique venting system and a universal permanent storage chart imprinted on all containers. I have the "older" models but it's the exact same concept! I promise it works! These will save you from throwing away that produce that you couldn't eat fast enough!

Initial Investment: $14.50+

#3 Top Money Saving Product- FoodSaver Vacuum Sealer System!

The FoodSaver system keeps food fresh up to 5x longer than ordinary storage methods like zipper bags, foil, plastic wrap and containers which means we can purchase items like meat on sale, seal it, freeze it and save money down the road! It is also nice to buy meats at larger quantities and then seal it into the size amount that works for your family!

Initial Investment: $79.99+
