Saving a buck is always helpful especially when you are saving towards something like a vacation or a wedding or--ahem--a mid-life crisis adventure. Never mind that I want to travel to all the continents.
That's not important.  What is important is that somehow I need to figure how I'm going to do that.

Despite what trip I am saving money for, I still have things that come up and need to be taken care of; like gifts for birthdays or clothes to wear or shoes to replace or food to eat.  There are things that need to be purchased and should not be ignored.  I can't place all my money into savings without taking care of the basics first. 
And since that is the case, we must find whatever we can to save on these things that can be inconvenient but are still important.  

My way to do that is by shopping second hand stores (for clothes) or extreme couponing (for groceries and diapers) or using discount sites like nomorerack.com (for birthday gifts).  I love discount sites like this!  They are so fun.  Nomorerack.com specializes in canceled orders and overstocked items posting 8 new deals each day. (and one for charity)  Apparently, they charge no more than $2 for shipping!  How incredibly cool is that?

I have not purchased anything from them yet, but I wanted to learn more.

I follow a blog called Mom Tried It and I was curious to see what she had learned through the nomorerack reviews.  And because I trust her, I was excited to learn that she too was impressed by nomorerack.com.

Also, I learned from A Helicopter Mom that you don't need to worry about nomorerack scams.  This company is legitmate and FUN!

The items you can purchase there are limited so they can sell out fast  If you are interested, you need to jump on it.  What I'm going to do with this site is make a list of people who need birthday gifts andstop by every few days.  By being proactive, I plan on saving money and being generous in giving gifts!  It's a win win situation.

Watch out world, I am going to be coming at you with some awesome gifts, and you aren't going to want to know how much I acutally paid for them. Or you might, but I won't tell you!

I'm saving for my next overseas journey, remember?
