Ebates! (How to use Ebates)

If you haven't heard of the latest internet cash back site yet, you're behind in saving! Ebates is a website where you can create an account and get cash back for your online purchases. They have thousands of stores and sites they are partners with and WILL give you cash back! There's no catch to it, and believe me when I say, absolutely no catch to it. Everything is FREE! You do not get charged for not using the account- as a matter of fact, they don't even take your credit card information. They will mail you a check if you do not wish to give them your Paypal account information. Simple as that!

When you first create an account, new members can get a $10 gift card (you may select from which ever store), or you can opt for the $5 cash credit to your account. In order to qualify for the bonus, you do have to make your first purchase of $25 or more going through their website. Easy, enough right? Yes, it is.

You get cash back for every purchase you make online if you went through Ebates first. Not following what I'm referring to? Don't worry- below is a step by step tutorial. To sign up, please click: Sign up for Ebates

DIY: Gel Stain Cabinets

 I recently bought a house, and the first thing I wanted to do was some minor updating. The bathroom cabinets were one of the few items I definitely wanted to update. Thanks to Pinterest (totally addicted), I found a quick, simple, and cheap way to update it! Total cost of the update: $25! :) The gel stain was $20, and the paint brush I used was only $2! But you still have to factor in some newspapers (I used old ones that I had handy) and some painter's tape. I couponed (using their 50% coupon) the painter's tape from JoAnn Fabrics for about $3!
