The New Year is Here

The New Year is here! 2012 can be anything from “ a lot better than 2011” or “an average year” or it can be “horrible”. I’m betting it’s gonna be better for most of us than the past couple of years. But I’m not waiting to see what happens. I will do my best to make the year the best I can.

So,  I made some News Years resolutions that I started acting on the minute I made them.

Massage Therapy

Life sometimes comes to a standstill when you are dealing with medical issues or physical injuries. Suddenly all that freedom you had to do what you wanted to do is gone and you’re forced to contend with the physical issue at hand.

Thankfully I got the right people to help me get through a nasty back issue.

Summer Get Away

This Summer has been busier than usual and between parenting and running BargainsLA, the stress level has been above the norm. Our quick trip to the San Diego Zoo this last weekend was suppose to help us “getaway from it all” for some stress relief and family time for the day. It proved to be both good and bad.

Online Sample Sale Shopping

Those online Sample sale sites have expanded & grown to a staple haunt for any savvy bargain hunter.

I scan many of them daily. Not just for designer fashion goods for me, but also for my daughter and hubby. I usually find something I like everyday. But I always find something perfect … at a serious discount at least once a month.

The Cost of Beauty- Part Two

This last year my daughter finally got her braces taken off.  But she didn’t experience the thrill she should have. During the treatment her teeth had darkened. Even after cleaning they still looked yellow. We bought some Crest Strips Pro at $45, but what she really needed was a professional whitening. I was on the hunt for a deal… and I found one!

The Cost of Beauty- Part One

As we age, we stop taken for granted our youthful appearance and start working at it with expensive gels and lotions, good nutrition, exercise and eventually more advanced treatments or even surgery. It can be costly and time consuming. But regardless of how ethical it is we are, at least initially, judged by our appearance. So when I come across a really good deal for anti aging or beauty treatment, I like to let ya in on it.

Fitness and Bargain Shopping Tips

Even though I have put on some weight over the last 5 years,  my mom in law commented on how I have stayed thin even though I don’t dance anymore. It’s really an attitude that works with a frugal mindset, that you can incorporate into your daily lives.

OC Hair Deal

First I have to say that my hairstylist here in L.A. is terrific. I have always been happy with her. The entire family goes to get their hair cut with her. She’s $65-$85 a cut and does excellent work. But when she went on Maternity leave I had to look around quick for someone else to fill in.
