The female Loki (Greek God of Mischief)
This was by far my favorite, I freaked when I saw this little dude last year. I freaking LOVE Edward Scissorhands! Lol, my hubby says I only like it because I'm in love with Johnny Depp. Well...I do LOVE me some Mr. Depp.

Bargain Shopper: Save Money at GNC with the ibotta App!



It's amazing to see the changes ibotta has made since I join a few years ago. I was able to save a few bucks on my most recent purchase at GNC using the ibotta app. I picked up some gummy vitamins for my little princess and the Super Colon Cleanse I have been wanting to try; combined both supplements would have been about $32 but they came out to about $24 with my "Gold Member Card" (typing that just made me want to see all of the Austin Powers movies again lol) and minus the $6 from ibotta, I really only came out of pocket about $26 which is much better than paying regular price. Cheers to saving $!

Beauty Trends: Amara Organics Vitamin C Serum

This is a sponsored post, I was invited to try this product and give my honest opinion.

http://amaraorganics.com
Beautiful Butterflies! I have a new product review for you guys and this one is beauty related... (yay) my favorite. It's from the Amara Organics company and the product (pictured above) is their Vitamin C Serum formulated using a potent blend of Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and Hyaluronic Acid, all which are very good for your skin. The Amara Organics Vitamin C Serum replenishes your skin’s vitamin C levels to give you these benefits:

Increases the production of collagen to bring back skin’s natural elasticity and counteract fine lines and wrinkles | Powerful antioxidant properties neutralize free radicals to reverse damage caused by the sun and pollutants | Protects your skin from UV damage such as age spots, discoloration, and fine lines | Improves skin texture to give you a smoother, brighter complexion | Combined with Vitamin E and Hyaluronic Acid for extra powerful anti-aging effects

Bargain Shopping: Really Cheap...Basically Free Guess Sneakers at Shoe Carnival

Hey Butterflies! So last weekend I was in one of my favorite places to get name brand shoes (not saying I'm a label junkie...I shop at payless too) for a low price; Shoe Carnival looking for some new workout kicks when I came across theses beauties for my princess aka my mini me (lol).

They were regularly $50 but on clearance for $10 (which was already a good price to me) and then while we were still shopping the manger said all clearance was an additional $5 off for 20 minutes only (you all should have seen had excited I got) making them only $5. That's not all, when we got to the register we signed up for the Shoe Carnival "Shoe Perks" reward program which gave us an additional $2 off and of course we got to spin the wheel (if you're a Shoe Carnival regular then you know what I'm talking about) which got us an additional $2 off, making the cost of the shoes only $1!

Lol, I said all that to say I picked up these Guess sneakers regularly priced at $50 for only a $1, super awesome right? I had to share my saving story with my peeps and hopefully you're able to get a similar deal the next time you're in "the carnival ".
