If you were here yesterday you know that my site was hacked into. Thankfully we got it back, though since I had to download a new version of WordPress and upload a fresh copy of my theme I do have some work to get it back to normal.

I know that nothing will completely protect you from this happening, but if you are a WordPress user, always having the newest version installed will make it less likely. If you ever find yourself in the same situation as me check out this post. I found it very helpful.

Thank you all for coming back again today! I will have new posts up later in the day so be sure to stop back.

Yesterday was a weird day. I celebrated Christmas and my birthday, neither of which it was. If you read yesterday’s I’m Feeling Festive post you know why I was in the Christmas spirit.  As for the birthday, I sign up for so many different birthday clubs that I can’t put my actual birth date in because I would never be able to take advantage of all the discounts. I got another coupon to a buffet for a free meal in celebration of my birthday. The whole way there I kept saying “Happy Birthday To Me!”  

There was a rebate in the 7/20 SS for Scrubbing Bubbles Action Scrubber Starter Kit. I originally wasn’t planning on sending in the rebate because I didn’t want the item but when I found out there was a $2.75 printable coupon and I would make money on the deal I went for it.

I used the $5 off Zantac printable coupon. An 8 ct. was priced at $4.20 but they did have 32 ct. boxes for the same price as the 24 ct. (which was just over $8). Not a bad deal either way.

I emailed Kashi just recently to let them know how pleased I was with their products after trying them for the first time with the printable coupons they offered on their site. Just a few days later I received two coupons for a free Kashi product and two $0.50 off coupons. The “free” coupons were good on any product up to $5 but for some reason the register would not let the cashier deduct the cost of the item, but took the entire $5 off! So I ended up getting free crackers, cereal and an extra $3 deducted from my bill! Click here for a $2 off Kashi Vive Coupon.

I used this $1 off printable coupon to get a pouch of Bertolli pasta sauce for only $0.78. Even with the coupon the cost per ounce is more than the Aldi sauce that I normally buy but I will be nice to try something different.

It looks like I will be buying a lot of cat food in the coming weeks. I bought some $3 off coupons on eBay plus I still have my two $4 off Purina coupons from Give A Bowl that expire at the end of August.

I had to go out on an emergency cat food run this morning because one of my cats is refusing to eat the free food I got last Friday. As I was driving I found a radio station that was having Christmas in July. They were playing Christmas songs, giving away Christmas themed prizes, wishing callers a Merry Christmas, and even convinced a little girl that Santa was at the mall (okay, that one was a little wrong).

All that Christmas music has me feeling festive and I want to give you a present. I know I can’t give everyone a gift but I will give one lucky winner something. To be entered just leave a comment on any post until the end of July. The winner will be chosen on August 1st. Wondering what the present is? Well it wouldn’t be a surprise if I told you!
