AND THE WINNER IS......

I know it's been a long time waiting, but the Kellogg's contest has finally ended. Please don't forget to send in your rebate forms this week (by 09/30)!

And the winner is (by $1).... YOUR COUPON BUDDY.

She had an actual profit of $19!!!! Way to go!!!
I'll be emailing you to redeem your $10 CVS card!

introducing a new website

I've been wanting to switch domain names and give Discount Hero it's own domain. However, even though discounthero.com isn't being used, it is owned. I contacted the owner to see if he would be willing to give up the domain since it is not in use and he told me it would cost me $10,000!! That's not a good deal! lol That's actually quite insane. So I've been toying around with the idea of starting a new adventure with a new name. I've done it.

I am now the proud owner of a new website that will feature the things I talk about on here as well as other things that really benefit your family (advice, wellness, recipies, DIY, in addition to all the ways I come up with to save money). I've switched my name to Homemaker Hero. Please bookmark it as it will become my new internet home. I'm still debating continuing this blog since most of what I post here will be on the new website anyhow. However, I'll definitely keep this blog open until the end of the Kellogg's contest. The winner will be announced on here at the end of September. So be sure to enter your Kellogg's transaction (even if you didn't get the rebate in the mail).

I look forward to my new adventures with you and posting more of what I'm really all about. Please let me know what you think!!!

want to win over $50 worth of healthy coupons?

My friend Leslie over at The Healthy Hearth is holding a coupon giveaway contest. She's inspired to live more healthy and wants to inspire you by giving away over $50 worth of (healthy) coupons. She offers three chances for entry.

I'm certainly entering because I love Leslie and all of her ideas. She has always inspired me with her frugal ways and was even actually the person who got me inspired with couponing in the first place. Why anyone would have a resourse to living more healthy and not go for it puzzles me. Go on over there and enter!
