Have you tried Clipix yet? It’s pretty neat!

Have you ever heard of Clipix? Let me tell you, it’s pretty neat! It’s like webpage where you can bookmark articles you want to read or keep handy for later. Suppose you’re reading something on the internet and there’s a link you’re dying to click and read, but you know that you’re short on time. You either do it anyway and make yourself late for something, you  attempt to go back later to read it but forget, or you want to find it later and can’t remember what it was called. I’ve had all three of those happen and this is where clipix comes in!

With Clipix I was able to read and come back to an article about the 50 things to do in Tennessee with young children – and bookmark it so that I remember to go and actually do those things. I hope that I will knock a few of those things off my list soon. 

Another way I have started using clipix is by clipping the contests I’m hosting or entering to a board so I can easily go back and enter again or check on their progress. I love having these all on there organized so it makes my time online spent much more efficiently.

I suggest you look into clipix today. You will so want to join and keep all of your online articles together. What’s cool is you can log in from any computer or device and still see your clips. This is way better than using bookmarks on your computer – those don’t move with you they stay on one device. This, well this is cool as you take your bookmarks and more with you. They even have an iphone app! You can snap photos and share them or you can keep track of all of your clips on the go! 

You can control the privacy which I like, share with as many or as few people as you want. Check this out…

What would you use clipix for? Planning a birthday party? Shopping online? Friends recommendations? Planning trips? Please tell me in the comments what uses you can think of for this site.

I started out with like 2 clips, but the more I thought about wanting to read more or come back to an article the more I clipped it and well – you will always find new uses for it!

Last Call!!! Win Dave Ramsey’s Total Money Makeover book!!

Dave Ramsey’s giveaway for the book The Total Money Makeover is ending tonight!!!!
Please consider entering and checking out Dave’s ideas on money. I know it changed my life and I pray that it will change yours too!

We started Dave’s plan through the Financial Peace University during the summer of 2010. I can not express how differently I see things now and how much more ready I am for my future. I have been mostly using cash since the class and for a while I thought, envelopes? What? That would be darn near impossible. And starting out was not easy as pie, but once we set our minds and hearts on doing it we got there. I can’t imagine NOT budgeting and paying with mostly cash ever again. It really really changed our house for the better.

You know when I realized my kids were starting to understand a little about our changes with money? When I was paying at the grocery store my daughter was 4 and asked me, “Why are you paying with money?” I was perplexed what she meant. I told her that I always paid for our groceries with money and she said, no you use that red card. Ouch! She knew at age 4 that I paid with my card most of the time. She didn’t associate it with money. I explained that I always had to pay money for my groceries, but now we’ll be paying with cash and not with our cards. I told the kids about debt and about cash and I really dug deep in talking about Dave’s plan to them even at ages 4 and 6. I sure hope that they never get into debt and they can win with money. I know when they’re old enough for their first job they’re taking the Financial Peace University classes because I’m dragging them to all of the classes.

Anyway, if I feel that strongly about Dave’s plan I suggest you at least look into it. Everyone I know who has tried it has been pleased with the outcome. Not everyone I know still pays with cash, in fact I feel very odd man out when I whip out my Dave envelope system to pay for something, but the longer I have done it the more normal it seems for me.

So, if you want to win The Total Money Makeover be sure to enter to win. If you don’t win, please google and read more about the philosophies, find a class at a local church, or listen to your public access radio station to hear what he has to say. It’s worth a look into at least.

Free Chapstick at Walgreens?

I haven’t tried this yet, but wanted to share.

I saw this over at  commonsensewithmoney.com and wanted to pass it along.

This week Walgreens has Chapstick on sale for 99 cents.

Well, the monthly coupon book you pick up at the front has a coupon for $1 off Chapstick in it. The picture shows another type of chapstick but it supposedly works here just fine.

This is confirmed as working on Chapstick Vanilla, regular, mint, apple, and cherry.
