Goodbye Winter!

"Smile and the world will smile with you." 



Spring is finally here and I don't know about any of you guys but I am so excited! The summer is really my favorite time of year but spring is just as good. At least I'm not shivering and frozen all the time. I don't know what it is about the warmer weather but I always feel more awake and motivated to get up early, pamper myself and look nice. The sun and warm weather really makes me feel so happy.


With the weather being so nice I plan on starting some fashion posts, so stay tuned for that. Follow all my social media sties to keep updated on when I post. I also plan on updating you all on my most recent subbing experiences.

My sister and I were bored one day so I let her do my makeup. It came out really good so props to her! 





Talk to you all soon loves.

How I Make and Save Money

So I love to shop but I also like to save money. There are a few ways that I make and save money online, which I am going to share with all of you. Before I start I want you all to know that I don’t make purchases online unless there is free shipping and/or I find a coupon. The only exception is if I really really need something.
*Excuse my chipped nail polish :(

Ebates is a website that I use whenever I am shopping online. It’s really cool because you can get cash back for shopping. My earnings so far are $124.50 and I’ve been a member for just a year. 

How it works:
First you have to make an account. After you make an account you simply type in the store you are shopping at in the search engine (see image below). 



Each store offers a different percentage of cash back. So after you select the store you can see a page that looks like this (see image below).



On the bottom there is a list of coupons that are available for that store. To move on to the website just click the "Shop Now" orange button. The store will automatically open in a new tab and then you can shop away. All you have to do next is just make your purchase and then the cash will automatically be applied to your ebates account.

If you want to make an account click here!

Like I said earlier I rarely make online purchases without a coupon and/or free shipping. Retail Me Not is a website that usually has the best offers of coupons. They have coupons for both in-store and online. I downloaded the app onto my phone so if I am in a store I can quickly look up if there are any coupons I can use.

eBay & Amazon
eBay and amazon are both website that I use to sell things I do not need or want anymore. If you are still in school it is a good way to get back some money you have spent on textbooks. I use eBay to sell things like clothes that do not fit me anymore and other things I find I do not need.

App trailers
App trailers is an app that I have on my iphone. With this app you accumulate points by watching trailers, trying apps, and by getting likes on comments and videos you post. You can then cash in the points for money to your Paypal account.

Other
My final tip for saving money is search the app store. Oftentimes when I am waiting online at a store I look for their app on my phone and download it. In some cases the app has coupons listed. If you load the coupon the casher can simply scan the coupon from your phone. I know that Michaels craft store definitely has an app with coupons.


Hope this helps you guys make and save some money. Thanks for reading and don't forget to follow my social media sites so you can know the next time I post.
