2010 Ultimate Blog Party: Welcome to Mama’s Money Savers!

Hi!  If you are new to my blog, Welcome, if you are a everyday reader, Thanks!

About Me:

My name is Cher (yes I was named after Cher) and I am a SAHM of two boys, ages 38 months old and 22 months old.  I love being home with them, even though they drive me crazy at times.  I also have a wonderful husband who has a good job, a great side job, and he is somewhat handy around the house.

I started blogging in August 2008 because I was sick of repeating my coupon deals and other ways of making money to my friends and family.  So I started my blog and told them to read it to see ways to save money and make money.  Before I started my blog, I honestly thought they were dumb as I thought they were all online journals about personal problems.  Boy was I wrong!  Some of my favorite websites back then I soon realized were actually blogs!  So I started out on Google Blogger and within a few days I was up and running.  (My husband actually named my blog!)  So in the beginning I posted deals and coupons and survey sites I used, hence the name Mama’s Money Savers.  Then around August 2009 I started to really get into product reviews and giveaways.  Soon I was doing at least one everyday.  I have done reviews on so many different products and websites that I couldn’t even list them all if I tried!

So now I host giveaways and product reviews, and I love it!  I am slowly working on other ideas to add in as I want to get back to my roots and expand on other ideas.  I of course will hopefully always post product reviews and giveaways, but I hope to add in recipes, more personal posts, and I am looking for any other ideas from my readers!

So I hope you stick around and leave a comment here to say Hi!

Hopefully you’ll also check out all my giveaways that are listed on the top right of my blog at all times!

Don’t forget to keep on Blog Hopping at all the other great blogs participating in the Ultimate Blog Hop!  Grab a comfy chair, some chips and salsa, and get clicking!

ABOUT THE ULTIMATE BLOG PARTY:

Okay so I am always looking to meet new bloggers and just communicate better with the bloggers I already read.  (I read tons of blogs but I am awful at commenting on them!)  I also love ‘chatting’ with my readers.

Well now there is a party going on from April 9^th-16^th, that is all about blogging, both for bloggers and readers.  What happens is all the bloggers sign up on a McKlinky showcasing a post introducing themselves and mentioning what prizes they would like to win.  Oh did I forget to mention there will be prizes!  You can check out the prizes HERE. Both bloggers and non-bloggers just need to comment on the 5 Minutes for Mom Ultimate Blog Party Post 2010.  If you are a non-blogger you do need to comment on at least 20 participating party posts to be eligible to win prizes.  Prizes will awarded by a random draw done by the 5 Minutes for Mom founders.  There will also be giveaways going on separately on many of the party blogs – including mine!

If you are a blogger, just post a post like this and link it on the 5 Minutes for Mom Ultimate Blog Party Post.  Don’t forget to list the prizes you like!

If you are a non-blogger, just check out and comment on at least 20 of the blogs listed on the Ultimate Blog Party Post McKlinky with the top three prizes you like!
