Poor BLOG:-(

Okay so clearly I have neglected my blog.  I am hoping that my recent craze with groupon,kgb deals, living social, etc....will wake me up and give me a challenge.

Challenge?

Well I have a tendency to buy these 50%  off and more deals and NEVER  use them. I know pretty crazy! 

Yesterday a company (appreciation events ) came out and hand some really great deals that I just couldn't pass up :-)

My goal is to use at least one a month and blog about it. 

I'll organize my deals over the weekend and figure out where we're going first......stay tuned!
