Etsy Shop: Happy Times Co. Review & Giveaway

Since I have been so far behind on my blog lately, I decided I best line some reviews and giveaways up to get me back on my feet and keep me motivated! In doing so, I have decided to resurrect Feature Fridays!! Clearly today is not Friday, I am aware of this. But I did not want to wait! So I bring to you my newest fun feature... Happy Times Co.

I recently had the pleasuring of chatting with Emma from Happy Times Co. Here is a little bit about Emma:

"I am a news photographer by trade... and Etsy also allows me to show my fine art photography and graphic design work. I am constantly updating my site. My quotes are meant to inspire and make you smile! I love simple, clean, lines and bold colors. My photography is everything that would never get printed in the paper! It's beautiful, calm, and soothing."

Happy Times Co. is stocked with captivating photography & inspiring quotes. Their slogan is, "Life is too short to be anything but happy." Photography is available in 8 x 10 and 10 x 13 size prints. Quotes are available in the following dimensions: 5 x 5, 8 x 8, and 8 x 10. Quotes are also available in sets. Custom orders are available to meet your needs.

Happy Times Co. has very reasonable prices and accepts verified paypal accounts. Orders ship within 1-3 days of order being placed.

Below you will find just a snip-it of the work found at Happy Times Co:

BJ's Review & $25 Gift Card Giveaway

When I received the opportunity for BJ's Saving Solution Package I was so excited! I had never shopped at a BJ's but had always heard great things when it comes to buying in bulk. Unfortunately my extra small apartment does not allow me to stock pile much at this time but I was still able to take part in some other fantastic deals! I am a coupon addict...so what I particular love is that BJ's accepts ALL manufacturer's coupons AND there are also store spefic coupons that you can pick up in store or download online! At my shopping trip (at which time I also used my $25 gift card), I purchased crest toothpaste, progresso soup, toilet paper, eggs, milk, and cheese. Most of which I also used coupons for! I did spend more than my $25 Gift Card, but I was excited and wanted to use the opportunity to stock up on a few extra things!

And now for one of my lucky readers...

BJ's and General Mills has offered a $25 BJ's Giftcard to giveaway on Ashley's Allowance!

Happy New Year!

Wow...so I have not posted in over 2 months! Where have I been!? I have decided that one of my New Year's Resolutions will be to get things on here rolling again!

That and I am REALLY going to try to pay off my car loan...I technically have about 29 more monthly car payments to go...and I am determined to just pay it ALL off by the end of 2010!

Have any New Year's Resolutions to share? Leave a comment! I'd love to hear about them!

I do have some giveaways lined up...maybe even today? That would be a good way to start the new year! So stay close...I will post again later today!

Happy New Year!
