Vacation time!

As you might have noticed I was on vacation this last week..... Sorry for this small absence but I just went on a little unplanned vacation.

As a cheap bastard that I am, I tool advantage of my own saving tips. This goes without saying that I bring to you some new saving tips.

SOOO, this went on like this.

FIRST I signed up to this cupon site, GROUPON, they had this great suggestion of a 2, 3 ou 5 nights for 2,3 or 5 persons on a house (not saying where) on a beautifull place.

So went on a trip with some people, friends, those kind of friends you'd consider family! Sometimes, especially when you don't have much money to spend the company is a crucial choice, you can sometimes go on a walk all day and don't even notice the time pass or your feet swelling!!

Well I brought a big group so that the gas bill would bit split in more! Once again you are going to spend gas but you can make it more efficient:



Well the saving part was done. The rest was just having as much fun as we could. Wtih the meals already paid for there was not much to worry about.


If you have any more suggestions... comment section is below ;)

How to...?



Freebies, coupons, retail deals...

Practical savings almost without effort. Well almost like anything you can make any of these advanced "hobbies" and almost make them part-time jobs. But for the most of us that just want some easy saves here are some tips.

The freebie is the most desired way ti save, the problem is to get the thing you want. It's all about the search..

You have to know some basics stuff:
  • What's a freebie
That one is easy, it’s something you get for nothing — with the exception of your time or energy. Some folks don’t want to take even a minute to try to get something free (their time is just too valuable). For the majority of us, however, as long as the value of the free item is well above what we would get paid to work for our time invested — it’s a great deal!
  • Where can you find freebies
Nowadays you can find them almost everywhere (have you heard of  google?) <- click="click" it="it" p="p">Craigslist is common too, some free sites, FACEBOOK is now offering some freebies also. SEARCH THEM

  • How to tell the good from the bad
Some freebies are legit, and others are just a scam. How can you discern between them? Here are a few tips I’ve picked up over the years.
Check the privacy policy — Most reputable sites will include privacy or terms of usage agreements on their site (check the bottom of the page or the fine print at the end of the registration form for details). If you don’t see this, you may not be dealing with a trustworthy website. Understand how your information may be used to contact you about future offers, and look to see if there is a way to opt-out of marketing communications before you give out your info.
Stay way from shady subdomains — It’s easy to see that an offer housed at www.tylenol.com is being handled by Tylenol itself, but sometimes other companies will fulfill offers on behalf of larger corporations. Familiarize yourself with how web addresses work, and see if it’s possible to access the home page from any offer you may have clicked on. If a link appears to be unsecured or from a website that doesn’t look reputable, walk away without your freebie.
Avoid additional offers — Many of the freebies that I encounter from even trustworthy sites are no more than money-making or affiliate schemes. If you are required to sign up for offers or start free-trial offers in exchange for your free items, the freebie may not be for you. (Usually, the freebie offerer gets a certain amount of money for each offer you complete. They end up making much more money off of you than you’ll ever get back for the freebie — if they send the freebie to you, at all.) Go ahead and let someone else make them money. You don’t need these kinds of strings-attached offers.
What to do with freebies? Some may think of them as a waste of time or a way to clutter up your medicine cabinet. I’ve known many well-meaning and successful freebie hunters who have helped to supplement their pantry or first aid kit with the fruits of their labor, however. You may also consider using your freebie hobby as a way to contribute much-needed supplies to homeless shelters and pet charities. They’d gladly take your unwanted freebies!




Basic couponing somes up to find coupons and cashing them so:

Coupons can be found everywhere! The more accustomed we become to collecting and using coupons, the more coupons will turn up. The following articles will help everyone get started on building a great collection of coupons for food, entertainment savings and products for the and beauty and health.




Retail deals are maybe the most old of these saving ways. So I'm not going to stretch this one out. Instead I'll share this video article explaining some of the concept.

Google adsense Account Disabled

 Google adsense Account Disabled
from: Yan Susanto


“While going through our records recently, we found that your AdSense account has posed a significant risk to our AdWords advertisers. Since keeping your account in our publisher network may financially damage our advertisers in the future, we’ve decided to disable your account.”
Ouch!! That hurts.
In fact, the no. of people receiving this dreaded letter is on the rise in the recent months. In most forums, there is a never ending discussion on why ‘my Google Adsense account is disabled‘, how to get it reinstated, and whatnot.
Are you experiencing the wrath of Google? Got your account disabled recently because, according to the email, it “has posed a significant risk to our Adwords advertisers?”
And you wondered why?
Here’s an on-going discussion of the top 30 reasons why your account is disabled. Are you guilty of any of those? Or you think the Big G with its “No evil” philosophy has done you an injustice?
“But it’s not my fault” I hear the usual denial.
Google doesn’t have to have a reason to ban you. And as much as you would like them to prove you did something wrong. They don’t have to do that either. While you’re given the option to appeal, it’s very unlikely that your account will ever be reinstated.
Go ahead and write your appeal. Your chances of reinstatement are slim to none.
Well, don’t cry over spoilt milk. It’s pointless. It’s pretty much final. But it isn’t the end of the world, given the fact that there are many other Google AdSense alternatives.
Sure, monetizing a blog with Adsense is by far the most popular choice for many – newbies or even seasoned bloggers. No doubt about it. As Google is controlling more than 75% of all search queries on the net, Adsense is still the best and most profitable CPC network if you know what you’re doing.
But when you lost it, it is really (I mean really real) tough to get back into the door as a Publisher but not impossible!*

A week later.... And 10 more tips about blogging

Sorry for the lack of posting this week but this new job schedule leaves me tired!!

Another great one from:
http://www.toptenblogtips.com/



Some blogs give you tips on what to do and what not to do. But sometimes they miss vital details, and some topics don't seem to come up much. Here are some things I've learned from blogging not by reading other people's blog tips, but by maintaining blogs of my own. Hopefully you'll learn from this post, too.

1. You need to choose a topic you know and like.

2. You need to enjoy writing.

3. You don't have to reply to every comment individually.

4. You shouldn't rely too heavily on one traffic source.

5. You shouldn't worry about a high bounce rate.

6. You don't usually get links by asking for them.

7. You don't launch a forum when you have very few readers.

8. Your posts need to be different.

9. You can waste a lot of time on social networking sites.

10. You'll meet some great people.



So... if you found that you need some more information go here: 10 things I've learned about blogging by actually doing it for the expand article! =D


What have you learned about blogging that you didn't know before you tried it?

Just made to the 100th followers target! PTC anyone?

This here..
Is for those people who have dead time.
Have you ever heard of PTC?.. If your in the web for years most probably you have! PTC is a paid to click program in wich the advertiser buys lots of clicks  from a guy, that guy owns a site where people register to click on those ads and recieve a part of that money!
NOT like Adsense... These advertisers already know that the person that clicks them ads recieves credit for it!
Now I'm going to suggest a site that has paid me! (and as lots of other payment proofs..)
This site is called NEOBUX and the big deal is that you can recieve payment instantly by paypal as soon as you get $2 wich is very easy to get.. Also you don't have to be a referrer wizard to have profits from this site..
1st you don't really need them
2nd you can rent them without having to put money from your own personal account!

So for those who like this kind of deals here:


for those who don't I'll be putting a new tip later on the day

The last post?

Well...

Some of you are right! "you stoopid!" "why I give ma money to some teacher and he end up fail me?"

Others just don't eat at school just because it turns out to be more expensive!

For those that for their reason didn't agree with the last post....:

Prepare something before going to school if you already know you'll end up being there the whole day..
Turns out that buying and preparing it yourself comes waaaayyyy more cheap than eating what's been prepared by others (you end up paying someone to prepare it for you right?)
 SOO! you know.. just be creative! bring a tupperware with cookies..  some sandwich!

To the younger ones don't go to school with anything too delicious..
!!BEWARE OF BULLIES!! xD
