Cheap Chick-JCPenney Coupon/OfficeMax

August 20, 2009 By Michelle Barneck 4 Comments

Want a great deal? I just found one today at JCPenney. I don’t usually shop there, but I got a $10 off a purchase of at least $10 coupon and figured I could not pass that up. If you did not get one you can use the code GET4BTS online. I believe it goes through Sat, Aug 22nd.

I found this cute sweatshirt for my 20 month old and snatched it up. We have a thing for orange. There was a lot of clearance items for 75% off and many other sale items.


Don’t mind the bed head. This pic was taken right after his nap.

Here’s the best part. It was $3.19! That’s cheaper than Walmart people!!

I knew it would be cheap with the 40% off sale and the coupon, but as I left the girl said, “You saved $19.” For real?! Oh how I love a deal!

As I walked to my car, I knew I had to share this. I was thinking out loud and said, “cheap” to which my son replied, “cheep, cheep” and pointed to a bird. Thus, Cheap Chick was born. How brilliant I thought I was until I came home, hopped online, and realized tons of other people had this realization way before me. Oh well.

*edit:
I almost forgot about the great deal at OfficeMax too! They have promo for 1 cent 24 ct. crayons (limit 3), 15 cent 10 ct. Bic pens (limit 3) and 10 cent poly folders (limit 6). Plus, I got a brown bag in the mail that gives you an extra 20% off everything you can fit inside it. So, I went and got all of this…

for 93 cents! Oh, how I love a good deal in the morning. Ya, it might be the crappy brands, but c’mon, 93 cents! That way I will not feel bad when I lose all the pens and my kid eats or breaks all of the crayons! Woohoo!

Feature Friday-April Showers (Blog Design)

June 26, 2009 By Michelle Barneck 3 Comments

Today’s Feature Friday is April the mastermind behind April Showers! April is the creative genius behind my new and improved wardrobe change (blog design). I am so happy with how it turned out. Not only does April do personalized blog designs (they are one of a kind and can come with custom illustrations, can’t you tell that’s me up top?!) for unreasonably reasonable prices, she makes you laugh your head off. Literally, I have to keep it from rolling down the stairs sometimes.

Like this video she shared the other day. I saw the five minute time stamp and thought I would just watch a few seconds…NOPE. I could not tear myself away.

April recently started including tutorials on her blog for those of you who are really motivated to have things just right on your blog. I obviously need to visit the How to Make Your Own Menu/Navigation Bar tutorial and get mine working! 😉

And did I mention the freebies? I used a ton of these before my redesign. The secret is out. They are such a fun addition and you can’t beat free! Here are a few examples:

So, if you are looking for a new blog design or just a good laugh, April comes highly recommended!! Here is a sneak peek in to her portfolio:

Love it! Great new BlOg DeSiGn April! Let me hear a woot!
