Low Budget Christmas, No Problem

 

If you haven’t already noticed, Christmas is around the corner. With this being said, we all know that this means that we are going to be dishing out a lot of money.

I came up with a really cool little idea that would make my kids smile and keep my wallet happy. If you haven’t already signed up for Listia you might want to look into it.

Listia is a website that allows you to get free stuff and give your free stuff away. You have to bid on items with points instead of money. How do you get points? Glad you asked. You get points by either getting rid of your stuff, buying them, inviting friends to join, or by a hundred other ways that are listed on their website such as viewing offers.

So what’s my plan and how is this going to help you? Well, with my children I have noticed that each one of them has a favorite item that they collect such as Hot Wheels, Littlest Pet Shop, Pokemon, and CD’s to name a few. So, I have decided to fill a box up with those items that they collect, one for each child. I am filling the box up with cool stuff that I can grab off of Listia and the best part is that most of it is new(or lightly used) and it is all free (there are some who ask you to pay for the shipping but you can also get a lot of free stuff with free shipping).

I love this site and I also give away a lot of cool stuff on there as well.

If you are thinking about joining, here’s 100 points to get your started with Listia. Hope you enjoy and happy free bidding…….

The Difference Between Writing a Blog Post and an Article

 I recently got asked if I would allow an individual to  write an article  for my blog. I assume that what they meant was, could they write a blog post. I also assume that this individual did not know the difference between a blog post and an article. Conversational Language of a Blog Post Conversational language on a blog post is more like you are talking to a close friend. It is like you are having a conversation with an individual that you have known for years. Blog post do not have to be formal at all. Blog post are supposed to invite the readers in and create conversation. Blog post also tend to have the writer’s opinion more than an article does. This does not mean that a blog post is not based on facts. Blog post are editorial pieces at best. Conversational Language of an Article Articles are meant to be informative, leaving false information completely out, and the opinion of the writer at a minimal. Articles are normally formal and more objective. Most articles d...

Aids has become one of the most widely known STD's in the world. Making yourself aware of Aids will help you to better understand ways that you can take prevention measures to refrain from transmitting it or passing it onto someone else.  HIV is the virus that causes Aids.

Earning with Bubblews

I have heard a lot of bad things about  Bubblews . I use to  love to write  for them and I still do every now and again. One review that I had seen was from a dear friend who had gotten kicked off of their site for unknown reasons, another review was from another friend who said that the pay system was really messed up but she still got paid, it just took longer than they state. Well, I have been writing for them for a while now. I don’t write there frequently though. You are allowed to post ten articles or post a day. I don’t take full advantage of this though; I am lucky if I post one a week. Anyways, this is my current pay scale that I have. I need to reach $50 before I can withdraw this into my PayPal account and right now I am at $46. I will keep you updated on my progress with them. Please let me know how your experience has been so far.
