Hopefully you’ve had a chance to check out my first-ever vlog attempt on frugal baby and toddler feeding, so you’ve seen the Flip in action! The quality of the video far exceeded my expectations, and it is SO simple to use.
I was really kind of nervous about doing a video. “You, uh, want me to do what? Put myself on display in a series of videos in front of all my readers? Um . . . okay.” But I had a great time learning how to use my Flip and playing around with Windows Movie Maker. Now that I’ve got one done and relaxed a little, I’m really looking forward to my next vlog!
So how would you like to have one of these fabulous little gadgets for your very own? Courtesy of Walmart and Pure Digital, I have one Flip Digital Video Camera in my hot little hands for one lucky reader to win! You could even use it to win a year’s worth of groceries by submitting your best money-saving tips on video to the Walmart channel on YouTube. I would be SO thrilled if one of my readers won the groceries!!!
Every reader has three methods available to enter this contest. Choose any combination of one, two, or three, for up to a total of 3 entries!!!
1. Leave a comment telling me the best money-saving method or tip that you’ve actually used recently. Make sure that I have some way to get in touch with you if you are the winner. (Either leave your email address in your comment or make sure I can access it from your profile.) Don’t worry, I won’t harvest your email addresses or use them for any purpose other than notifying you if you win.
2. Subscribe to my feed via RSS or email and leave a separate comment letting me know you have done so. If you’re already a subscriber, simply leave a separate comment letting me know you’re already subscribed. Lovin’ my subscribers! You guys make this all possible.
3. Spread the word about this contest in some manner and come back and leave a link in a separate comment. If you have a blog, you can blog about it. But if you don’t have a blog, you’re not at a disadvantage. You could review and Stumble it. You could Twitter it. You could post about it in a forum. Use your imagination!
It is important that you leave a separate comment for each type of entry because each comment is equal to one entry. Sorry to harp on this, but it really is that important to tally and select the winners easily, so I thank you from the bottom of my heart!
Prize:
(1) Flip Video F260 Ultra 60-Minute Digital Camcorder, ARV $125
This giveaway ends at 11:59 p.m. EDT on Sunday, September 7th. I’ll use Random.org to generate a number that corresponds with the winning comment and post the winner on Monday, September 8th. Good luck!

Just subscribed to your feed and now I’m trying to think of a specific tip for saving money that I’ve used lately. I know there are a ton, it’s amazing how hard they are to think of when you’re trying to…..

We recently made sidewalk chalk using corn starch, water and food coloring (recipe is at my blog) and it worked great and was a lot of fun!
My friends and I also do a magazine swap. We each subscribe to a couple of magazines, and when we’re done, we pass them around to share with each other.

I went to a farmers market last week and bought some really good looking veggies. I made a list (sort of like an inventory I guess) of the veggies I had bought and put it on my frig with a magnet. That way I actually used every thing up and did not have things going bad in a corner of my veg bin in the frig. It helped me a lot. I think I will keep on doing this.

Shop at consignment stores for your children’s clothing. You get paid more than a resale shop and it’s kind of like recycling your clothing – bring in the old, bring home some new for hopefully little out-of-pocket. I’m always amazed at what great clothing I find at consignment stores, especially during sales and clearance events. This is also a fabulous place to pick you your halloween costumes!

I have recently started to buy fresh veggies when I find them cheap, chop them up, and freeze them. Then I’ll use the frozen veggies when I can’t find them fresh at the store for cheap any given week. It’s turned out tastier and cheaper than store bought frozen veggies.

Most people don’t think you can save any money by doing this, but I swear it makes a HUGE difference. Every Friday I make a menu and shopping list for the coming week. That means that I buy exactly what I need and I know exactly what to make at each meal – no extra trips to the grocery store (where inevitably you end up buying more stuff), no wasted vegetables because I know how much I need, and no ordering out because it’s late and I don’t know what to cook and don’t feel like going to the store.
