Do you want to get your name off telemarketing lists or stop getting all those credit card offers?

To contact us Click HERE
Do you get completely annoyed when telemarkerters call and try to put the pressure on you or use guilt as a tactic to get you to buy or donate something, or what about all those credit card offers that come in the mail offering a really cheap rate on balance transfers but if you purchase anything new on the card they charge you an outrageously high interest rate.  There are some people that are "too nice" to say no or maybe don't understand completely that they have the right to say no or hang up, some of the slick telemarketers use guilt as a tactic and prey on those people, so a lot of times this poor person on the phone gets suckered into buying something when they can't afford it. People also get suckered into those credit card offers that are offering a really cheap rate on balance transfers but in small print the interest for new charges is outrageous or the cheap rate on the balance transfer is only for a temporary amount of time and then it goes way up, or maybe you are just trying to get your finances under control and stop charging so you have cut up your credit cards but then an offer shows up in the mail and tempts you to open a new account. Here's how you can avoid some of these financial pitfalls:  
  • Opt out of unsolicited credit card offers, 1-888-5 OPT OUT or 1-888-567-8688
  • Sign up for the Do Not Call Registry 1-888-382-1222 or www.donotcall.gov (keep in mind you will need to do this yearly to stay on the list.)
  • Remove your name from mailing, telemarketing and email lists, contact the Direct Marketing Association www.dmaconsumers.org or 212-768-7277

  • Buy/Sell/Trade Facebook Pages

    To contact us Click HERE
    My newest obsession, does anybody else have this were you live? Facebook pages created by someone local in your town or area of town where you buy sell and trade stuff with people that are in your area also, then you just meet up someplace to do the exchange. Obviously you want to be very careful and meet at a public place but most of the posts I see are all Moms getting rid of stuff. I posted something for free that I just wanted to get rid of a couple of hours ago and it's already taken, I specified that they pick up so I don't waste gas money delivering and I'm just going to meet them at the entrance to my neighborhood so they don't know exactly where I live. It's like having an online garage sale, just search the name of your area in the search area on FB and you might find something, if you live in the Seattle area like I do I can give you the links if you are interested, you'll be hooked, it's worse than Pinterest!!!

    Next time: More Dog less Muffin!

    To contact us Click HERE
    I love to try the stuff I see on Pinterest so here's the latest, Corn Dog Muffins, I made these last night. Super easy to whip up I made the corn muffin mix, you don't need to buy a box, you just need cornmeal, flour, salt, sugar, baking powder, eggs, milk and butter or oil. I used a regular muffin tin and then just cut some pieces of hot dog up to put in the middle of the batter, I'm not a big hot dog eater, for years I called them tubes of death, but a friend introduced me to the Hebrew National Kosher Hot dogs and they are actually not bad, yes more expensive but worth it to me. Anyway I wasn't sure what size cut the hot dogs so I tried a few different sizes just to experiment.  When they came out of the oven I was a little worried because I couldn't see the hot dogs anymore, here are a few cut open.  They were really yummy but next time I think I will use less batter for each muffin because it was just too much muffin for that little piece of hot dog or I need to use a small muffin tin and make them bitesize. Either way they were super easy and really good with ketchup.  

    Make Monkey Bread This Weekend!

    To contact us Click HERE
    If you've been following our blog you've probably seen similar posts about the Pillsbury Monkey Bread but I absolutely love it and it's so simple to make. Now is a great time to make it, several grocery stores in my area have the Pillsbury Grands on sale right now, as low as $ .69 so that's when I buy a few cans. To make this recipe you need 2 cans of the Pillsbury Grands, here is the link to the Monkey Bread Recipe. It is so gooey and delicious and the house smells like cinnamon, I secretly scoop out and eat the brown sugar and butter mixture that is left in the pan after putting the monkey bread on a plate. If that's wrong, I don't want to be right!
