Were you able to take advantage of the Living Social deal yesterday? It seems like a lot of people did since 1,301,296 purchased the $20 Amazon gift card for $10. If you log into your account your gift card should be posted!

Are you thinking about what you want to use it on?

I mentioned the other day on Facebook that I bought the Cuisinart Waffle Maker for just $24.50 (down from $55). However there is another great deal out there if you’ve been looking for video games.

Visit this Amazon section to see the video games available for Buy 2 Get 1 Free. It includes all platforms, even PS2. I use PS3 so a few that caught my eye were Just Cause 2 for $37.55, Toy Story 3 for $29.99, and LEGO Harry Potter for $36.99. I also saw Mario Party 8 (Wii) for $46.54.

What deals did you like? Did you take advantage of this deal?

Yesterday I got this message and was hoping for some feedback. I know we have some great deal finders so maybe we can get some help.

Recently my husband lost his job, things haven’t been the best they could be, our moods were shot to heck but because of you & your hard work you’ve really brightened our days. I know it sounds silly, but I would use a coupon here or there, maybe get a free sample once a year but a previous job loss last Summer brought me to your site everyday (and your FB page too). It’s allowed me to get things we need, try out things without spending money in case we didn’t like them, and even win a few little things here and there.

Your updates during Christmas allowed us to put so much more under the tree than we thought we could. I truly do appreciate the hard work you put into the site.

With that I have one question, do you know anywhere with Walmart coupons? Our son needs a toddler bed and to be honest it’s a big chunk of change but cheaper than the craigslist in our area I’ve seen (And I wouldn’t buy him a used mattress anyways, I’m picky about that). And honestly the price is great on the bed/mattress just a bit more than we can do at the moment. I figured it’s best to ask the pro’s instead of putting viruses on my computer clicking anything that says “Walmart coupon”..haha. Thank you & keep up the hard work!!

To start off I love reader feedback and compliments (not a fan of complaints but I’ll take those too) so thank you for that. Second it just reinforces how much I love this site and our online family/community. Now let’s get down to business!

I suggested this one from Walmart that is $59, but it doesn’t include the mattress or free shipping.

After mattress and shipping add another $10 to it to hit around $125.

Is there any better deals than that? Let’s help Sabrina out!

This post brought to you by TABASCO® Original Red. All opinions are 100% mine.

When you move and start out brand new you start to realize certain things when they AREN’T there anymore. One of these items I found missing was TABASCO® Original Red hot sauce! A few times I went to go use it or was asked for it by a guest and we didn’t have it.

Sometimes you don’t realize these things. I like to throw a dash or two in my eggs and of course add it to my wings when I make them from ‘scratch’.

Since it’s the playoffs and you may be having some guests, I wanted to share Tabasco’s Game-Day Party Menu. There you can grab some great free party recipes for any upcoming events you may be having. Superbowl?

The “Smoking” wings recipe sounds pretty interesting to me. It calls for chicken wings, ketchip, orange juice, Tabasco Chipotle Pepper Sauce, and garlic! Yum.

If you aren’t a fan of wings with sauce or want to add some spice to your dip, try a few dashes of Tabasco in your Ranch or Blue Cheese dressings.

How do you incorporate Tabasco into your recipes and cooking?
