About Us

One week I was home sick with bronchitis and was bored with TV so I was surfing. I came across something called “blogging” and thought I’ve heard of this but what is it all about? ! So for two days I read all I could about setting up a blog. When I was done, my head was spinning and my eyeballs were popping out! I found out that blogging has been around since 2002 – where the heck have I been?! So what did I do next? I bought the book “Blogging for Dummies” – of course! Then I joined an on line Webinar. So now I’m learning more and more about how to set up things on this blog so if you see something goofy, it is me trying to figure out where to place it or how to fix it!

My husband and I live in sunny Arizona and we are originally from Iowa (me) and Ohio (him). We married 8 years ago and I met him through an on line dating site when we both lived in Arizona.  Now we have 3 golden retriever’s!! I know CRAZY! Molly (spoiled rotten-daddy’s girl), Chase (daddy’s boy) and Jax (mind of his own and VERY hyper & snoopy but super smart!)……… AKA Molly Muffin, Chasey and Jaxey Boy.

I am a coupon shopper and stock piler! I LOVE going to garage sales, estate sales and auctions and finding deals for myself and to sell on eBay. Hubby likes the sales too but I usually have to bribe him with Starbucks! So my blog is about quite a few things – eBay, garage sales, coupons, our golden’s and saving money.  Soon I hope to have a link on here to my website that I will be selling new and preowned clothes, antiques and knick knacks. You will be able to click on the link and you will then be able to buy directly from my site using PayPal. This way I will be avoiding the super high eBay fees. So that in a nutshell means I can sell items cheaper and better deals for you!

I hope you like my blog and save me in your favorites and check back daily! My goal is to write a few articles each week, list new freebies, new coupons and deals. Also, I want to put videos of our dogs on for everyone to see how silly they really are. I am training the two boys (2 years old) to growl when I signal them to, I think Jax understands not sure about Chase yet. Times are tough, groceries are so high not to mention gas prices so we all had to cut back. Any deals I can post will help us all. Thank you for reading  my blog – come back soon!   Joan
