gopro-hero4-4k-best-price

Looking for a GoPro? The HERO4 4k in black is reduced to $294.99 from $449.99 today! I am not sure this price (or stock) will last. You do need to add the item to your cart to see this price.

Additionally, save $25 off a $100 purchase when you checkout with Visa Checkout. That brings your price down to $274.99! Visa checkout deal is good until 12/25/16 and can only be used one time per customer. I do not think that the GoPro will not be reduced this much, however, for as long.

GoPro HERO4 Black Action Camera: Capture the world around you in stunning 4K resolution and super slow motion at up to 240 frames per second with the GoPro 4. GoPro’s standard waterproof housing lets you record underwater down to 131′, plus built in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth allow you to easily connect to the GoPro App and Smart Remote for simple control and video sharing.

Compare to Amazon, where they have the GoPro HERO4 BLACK reduced to $299.99 from $499.99.

This is the time of year to shop American Girl at a deal. Take a look at their Cyber Monday Sale.

In fact, more people than not, ask me about when American Girl goes on sale and I always say shop Cyber Monday. I also say, shop Amazon. If there are books, DVDs, mini dolls, or 20 inch doll accessories and clothing, this is a great place to shop.

Additionally, if you are okay with a “Knock-off” brand, Target has Our Generation Dolls. Right now when you buy more, you save more. Buy 1 save 10%, buy 2 save 15%, buy 3 save 20% They have free shipping for all and you an use your Target Red Card for 5% off.

Happy Shopping.

Winning Car Hacks for Moms. Turn your car into an oasis. Why didn’t I think of that ideas and car tips for travel and every day trips?!

Winning Car Hacks for Moms

car-hacks-collage-long-frugal-coupon-living-short


If you are an on the go mother like me, the car probably feels like your second home. I feel as though I am constantly picking up, dropping off, taking here, and going there.  Having an unkept space, just gives me anxiety. I hate trash around, I hate messes, and I hate clutter. In fact, using the word hate (which I hate) means I REALLY dislike it and I am always looking for hacks and tips to make my car space more family friendly and thus pleasing to me – the mom!

Take a look at these winning car hacks and tips for mom, we don’t think you will be disappointed!

First, going on a long car ride. Keep the kids entertained without using electronics and with the use of little to no supplies. Download these 12 games for the car. Set includes kids car games with instructions, conversation cards, road trip scavenger hunt and conversation cards for the Family.

Two things I keep in the front seat area are my Clorox Wipes and Paper Towels. People always need napkins, so I toss back the roll, and I use Clorox wipes to wipe down the inside of the car while I am pumping gas or briefly the dashboard at a red light. My two year old car look brand new. That’s saying a lot for it being the primary mode of transportation for five kids!

Both these Paper Towels and Clorox Disinfecting Wipes are on my Subscribe and Save list. Viva Paper Towels are the best, they are really soft and not rough on hands or the face.
