June Amazon Haul

June was a busy month! School ended and my oldest was home for her first summer break now that she is older. Work kept me busy, and with juggling all the summer activities and social events, I leaned hard on Amazon this month to help me with all my shopping needs. Here are some of my purchases from June: Swimsuits I ordered LOTS of swim suits the past 2 weeks from a few retailers. I fell in love with this One Shoulder one piec e which is just $29.99! It was so flattering and this blue color looks great on me, but there are tons of color options! Amazon.com This two piece set gets a lot of rave reviews, and I can see why, at just $26.99 it's a great price point! It would look great if you want a two piece with some modesty and the quality was really nice. I think it would look fantastic on those of you that are a A-C cup, but I looked larger than I wanted on top the way it fit on me. There are a lot of options and prints to check out. Oh, did I mention the bottom...

Amazon Prime Day July 2019

photo credit: Amazon Are you ready for a shopping day as big as Black Friday? Last year over 100 million items were purchased! Prime "day" (it's a 36 hour event) is predicted to start Monday, July 15th and continue through July 16th for 2019, although the official date is yet to be announced. So what is the big deal with this sale anyway? Amazon started holding a mid-summer sale back in 2015 and now it's turned into a summer black Friday event. After the first years, other retailers caught on and now offer their own deals and price matching, so there are tons of shopping deals across retailer if you aren't an Amazon shopper. For those who are not yet Amazon prime members, you can get Prime day deals by signing up for a free 30 day trial . I cannot live without my Amazon Prime membership. To get the full scoop on the benefits, click here and visit my blog post and check out the Subscribe and Save guide  (one of my favorite features!) Last year, a p...

Shopping with your Phone

As much as I love shopping with my sister or a friend, there is one thing I never shop without - my phone! Sure, it can't tell me if I look fat in a certain outfit I'm trying on (well...pics don't lie), but I give it a pass because it can still provide some awesome benefits. There are savings apps, there are coupon apps, each store has an app...how do you know what is worth taking up precious memory on your phone? It can be overwhelming, but I've divided my breakdown into certain sections. Start with downloading the app for the stores you shop at most. Stores: Cartwheel: This is Target's app. I keep it open as I shop so I can scan my items as I shop to see if there is a discount. If so I add it to my list. The app has a barcode in it that you simply have the cashier scan prior to payment and it takes off whatever percent savings were available for your purchases. You can prep ahead of time but searching through the categories to find what items have discoun...
