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.

Seasons: The Future

So about the future.  I obviously don't know it so it makes sense that this one might be a little shorter (or longer-it could logically go either way, I just went with shorter). There are litterally (at least) a hundred different ways it could go. After the internship I'm doing, I might stay on there. Or I might come back here. If I come back here I could work, go away to college, take classes from home, live with my parents, move out with some friends, get some kind of certification and work a more specific job, come back to the office job I have now, etc. Or I could move to CA and live with some family and find a job with some distant cousins. Or I could move to some other random state and adventure there. The list of possibilities goes on and on. What sounds best to me right now is to do one of the aforementioned options that have to do with moving back here but we really will see won't we.

Thankful Thursday: Sweet heart hurts.

I was going to say "Happy Thursday to you!"  And if you're having a happy Thursday, good for you.  In the sense of wishing someone a happy day I suppose I do wish you that.  However,  I do not mean that I feel happy on this Thursday. So maybe more like "Thoughtful and introspective Thursday!" Doesn't sound as nice as "Happy Thursday" but that's okay. I'm not particularly happy on this Thursday and for fear of tempting you to judge whether or not my reason for not being happy is legitimate or not (some people feel like they have that position, you know) I won't go into the details of why. I will say that I miss somebody today.  More than just one; I miss him and his whole family. Without going into more detail on that, I'll tell you that my heart hurts today.  The why is irrelevant for the sake of what I'm trying to say; but it does hurt. There are at least two kinds of heart hurts I think: ( There is good news though beca...

What Really Matters

  Monday, October 22, 2012:  The date that I originally put this picture in a draft and saved it with the title "It's for real." I thought I was going to a place called the International House of Prayer in Kansas City for an internship.  I thought it was for real. I could barely believe it myself because I was planning to do something very far outside of my comfort zone, but it was for real.    I was going to be moving away from my family, hometown, most of my friends, and the familiarity of what I've spent the last 7 years knowing life to be. I'm not writing this post to tell the story of what happened or why in March, I'm still here, living with my family in my hometown with most of my friends and that familiarity still surrounding me. While I could explain the mental process of my decision not to go, I cannot tell you why I'm here instead of there right now, because even I don't know. I know that in c...
