Nifty Thrifting: Food & Amazon

Hey guys!
Here's a few freebies I've been finding.  To get technical, they're really not free.


For instance, to reap the benefits of this one, you've gotta print it off! Don't hurt yourself.















Or, in order to get a free small cheese pizza from Hungry Howie's, you've got to go to this website and fill out some info.  If you're leary about giving out your email and some basic, not-very-personal information, this one may not be for you.  Actually, all of these except the deal at Panda ask for some info about you in return for "free" stuff.  I think it's worth it as none of them asked for my phone number and if they end up sending me too many junk emails, I can always unsubscribe.  You can pay with money or you can pay with giving them an email address. Obviously, it's your call.

This deal is expired as the superbowl coin toss has already happened.  I just wanted to tell you all that by signing up and guessing that the coin would land heads up, I won a free 1-topping pizza from Papa Johns. Score! (pun intended)

But my favorite (and least fattening) deal as of late has been getting a $5 amazon credit just for participating in a survey at research.fm.  I know the particular promotion that I participated in has ended, but the website says to keep your eyes open for more coming soon, jsyk.

Welp, hope you can gain some fun, "free" stuff from this edition of Nifty Thrifting!

Remember, there's a difference between being frugal and being cheap.  In my humble opinion, the difference lies in what you pay with instead of money.

Post Prompts I

I googled blog post prompts just for fun and found a website with a whole bunch.  Rather than writing whole posts on some of the topics, I decided to do interview style responses. Write about the first time you broke the law. When I was 4, stole a handful of grass seed from a store. Felt awful but never admitted to it untill way later. They knew I was lying but never prosecuted (is it even possible to prosecute a 4 year old?).  I discarded the evidence onto their lawn as soon as I got out of the store (I guess that was sort of smart).  Why grass seed? Good question.  Your favorite vacation spot or place that you've traveled to. An Island in Malaysia called Redang. Everything about that place looked like those tropical photos you secretly doubt the existence of.  Straight up B-E-A-U-tiful. Write about the passing of a loved one. My Grandma died 2 years ago on the 4th of July (ironic, don't you think?).  For me, the whole experience wa...

From desiringGod Blog

From a blog I follow called  desiringGod .  The whole website is full of truth.  I encourage you to check it out.  I've enlarged and boldened sentences I think are especially well said.   Not Your Mother's Kind of Tolerance by Jonathan Parnell | August 2, 2012   Views that advocate same-sex marriage are free to exist, but they are wrong. Now, stop. Read the above sentence again. Are you okay with it? Chances are how you feel about that statement indicates your understanding (or misunderstanding) of tolerance. D. A. Carson, in his book, The Intolerance of Tolerance , explains that Western culture isn't exactly firing on all cylinders when it comes to knowing what tolerance is. He distinguishes two different concepts of this word: old tolerance and new tolerance. Old tolerance — that is, before the onslaught of postmodernism — defines the concept as to "accept the existence of different views." New tolerance, however, defines tolerance ...

to just BE

This semester of college is officially over as of last friday when I emailed my english teacher my final essays.  Halleluyer! I just checked and the last time I posted here was almost a month ago. It definitely feels like waaaay longer though and I've been itching to write again.  I've basically abandoned my podcast the past few weeks as well and while I don't feel all guilt tripped to be more consistent about these things, I really just want to do them more often simply because I enjoy them.  Probably needless to summarize, I've been busy.  But not always with matters I had no choice in.  Some of the busyness came from having spent my time reading or watching netflix shows while I cleaned my room or crocheting (or trying to) a full-size blanket or just chilling with Jake, etc. etc. etc.  Truth is that yes, I've been busy but no, I didn't have to be as busy as I have been.  However, being busy, I have accomplished things and I'm glad about t...
