    I got an email as well and I can't get mine to work. I get the message that the discount isn't valid for the dates I selected, although according to details it is.

    Friends & Family Discount for Orange Lake Resort, Holiday Inn, Crowne Plaza, and More

    Just wanted to give a heads up that when I used this at the Holiday Inn Express Dublin Airport on July 13th, they told me that I should have been given a white card to present rather than the voucher. I told them that the voucher was what "my friend" (Thanks, Shelby!) had told me to take and...

    should DS10 have his own iTunes account?

    An additional benefit to having him on your iTunes account is that you can use Find iPhone to find his device; it will actually show all the devices on your account as long as they are connected to the internet. Our kids are all set up on our iTunes for this reason.

    New Car on Dealer Lot-Possible to Verify No Hail Damage?

    I purchased a new vehicle in January 2011 that was previously damaged in a hailstorm. The dealership told me that they were required to disclose the damage to me and gave me a copy of the invoice for all the repairs that were made. I inquired about it showing on carfax & they indicated that...

    Any other Secret Shoppers here?

    No, you do not have to have the certification. It just gives you priority access to some jobs. Gold certification gives even more priority access and some jobs require that you have gold certification.

    Any other Secret Shoppers here?

    I used to, but don't pick up many jobs anymore. I am much pickier than I used to be of the jobs I take and just look for ones with big $ or something that I want/need anyway. I've done dinner & bar shops, a local amusement park, lots of chain fast food & pizza shops, car dealerships (sales)...

    I need help - "Nutritious shopping for dummies"?

    Hmmm...I don't really read food labels, other than the ingredients list. In the last six months I have switched my family over to more "whole" type food & much less processed. If it has an ingredient in it I can't pronounce, I try to find an alternative. The site that really got me started on...

    Vitamix demo prices?

    Not sure about the Costco demos, but at the State Fair I purchased one for $449 plus tax. It came with the large carafe, 32 oz dry carafe, cutting sheets, & 2 spatulas. I wanted the dry carafe & the cheapest I've seen it was $99, so this set was a good deal. If you want just the mixer...

    Pros and cons of using a credit union?

    I am a member of 2 credit unions. One I have been a member for 30+ years. There are virtually no fees for anything that I do. We have had several car loans and currently have our mortgage with one of them. We use their network of ATMs, so don't ever get hit with fees there. The biggest...

    Best Prices on Keurig Brewer

    I purchased the B60 model at Sam's Club this past weekend for $129.98. I believe this is the same model as the Special Edition. It came with the my K cup filter to put your own coffee in as well as 36 k-cups. This is the best deal I have found recently.

    Photopass discount find!

    I just checked all my cards from last Fall & none had the code. If anyone has an extra code they would like to share, I would appreciate it. I'm going in a couple of weeks, so I will see if I can find some to share!

    How to handle 20 month old in Line

    I don't have any tips, but am anxious to hear any responses you get. We are taking ours in late May; the youngest will be 21 months. He is squirmy when you hold him & hates to hold hands. I need lots of ideas for keeping him busy!

    do they still sell disney crocs at the parks?

    I purchased a couple of pair of the child sized mickey head crocs online for less than $15 each with free shipping a couple of weeks ago. This is about 1/2 of what the cost in the parks.

    Pirate & Princess party advice

    We did a treasure hunt at my DS 5th Bday party. We had rhyming clues that we read to them & they had to figure out where the next spot was. You could also do a map or signs to the next clue. It was definitely the hit of the party. The "treasure" was a big box painted like a chest with the...

    OT - Gifted Kids

    Our school recently started lunchtime discussion groups for the G&T kids that are in 2nd-4th grade. This is after 3 years of me asking for SOMETHING. Luckily we are also a Core Knowledge school which incorporates lots of projects (i.e. dioramas, presentations, posters, etc.). I believe this...

    We live in Oklahoma City in a historic area, near downtown. We actually have a few military families that attend elementary school with our kids. The location is great--easy access to ALL the highways, so we are spoiled about being able to get anywhere in the city easily. Oklahoma City Public...
