Next week is Snow White's spring break. My family is heading off to New York City for a whirlwind week of touring colleges, eating dinner with good friends (more on that later.....Mental P Mama and Daryl will be there. Jealous??), enjoying an opera at The Met, and soaking up all of the sights and sounds of the city. Quite a change for these country bumpkins who typically head for the beach!!
I made the arrangements for our trip about six weeks ago. Today, I was able to cash in credit card miles and get a $655.00 travel reimbursement!!! The beauty of it is that I pay my credit card off every month, so this was FREE MONEY!! Icing on the cake...
Although not quite as impressive, I have saved enough receipts to get a $20.00 rebate at my local grocery store. They have a promotion once or twice a year, and all you have to do is save your receipts ($50.00 or more) for six of the eight promotion weeks. You take the receipts to Customer Service, and they give you a $20.00 voucher. Again, FREE MONEY!!!
Now it's your turn. Tell me what you do to save, or to get FREE MONEY!

Yeah, I'm a little jealous.
You're just scarfing up those perks! Have a wonderful time in NY! Don't go bananas with that money...college tuition isn't anything to sneeze at.
I am so excited for your trip!!! I hope SW Finds what she is looking for!!!!
I got a free lunch at Chic Fil A from the manager. Does that count? YES IT DOES!!! :)
You rock.
So....are you buying dinner?;)
We are looking forward to seeing you!
What fun, the big city and blog friends. I'm excited for you.
Oh I got that $20.00 voucher you know I did! Hmmm where should I start,I wont. You and I are the Queens of free money! Always wheelin and dealin.
Have fun in the big city. Hide the camera and dont let them hear your accent, you'll fit in nicely.
I love free money! Can you say TWO rooms at the Marriot Grand Dunes in Myrtle Beach for FREE! Yea baby...
I'm jealous you are going to the city, but I'll be thinking about you at the beach. Be sure to take your laptop and blog while you're gone. There will be way too much to talk about when you get home.
Yeah you go girl!! I am very jealous indeed! I wish I could join you guys.
Tell us all about it.
I want an oompah loompah.
And I also want dinner with Mental Mamma and Daryl, but I guess I'll have to wait until July.
Very, very jealous, but enjoy yourself, be safe and have fun. Please have one glass of wine for me.
Typo - I meant one bottle.
I am so jealous!! Well, maybe not so jealous about the opera but really jealous about the rest of that trip.
I get my free money every Friday just one small catch. I have to work like a damn dog EVERY DAY!
Go you!!!
I am super green with envy over here.-- meeting up with friends, seeing the big apple, eating some good food! FUN.
Anyway.... free money? Hmmm...I use alot of BOGO food coupons. :)
YAY for you Big Hair Envy and um..........how the hell are you guys getting all of the "free" money??? I think you are all robbing banks???
Have a great time in NYC.......it's one of my favorite places. Try Russo's for dinner one night. You'll love it :)
Steady On

Wow! I'll think on it, but it would be hard to top your credit card miles! That's great!
Awesome! Didn't know SW was thinking about college in the Big Apple...do I smell Broadway in her future??? Anyhoo, that's how I got to go to FL for my kids' Spring Break...cashed in travel miles on my credit card too and got two free plane tix to Sarasota. Gotta love it!
Free money? Isnt that an oxymoron?
Cant wait to see you and meet Snow White and your handsome prince ...
