First off let me introduce myself...

My name is Virginia but most people call me V.A. I am 24 years old and the mother of a 4 1/2 year old little girl named Marley, she is my world. I live in a small town in Virginia. My fiance Eric and I moved into our home about a year and a half ago and are learning to live on our own first hand. It's a struggle but it is part of growing up. I have learned to be one of those crazy coupon ladies that you see in the stores. And I enter a whole lot of contests and instant win games. I also am a huge bargain shopper. Why pay full price when you don't have to? I also make money online by watching advertisements and doing short surveys. Hey it's free money, why not? This blog will show you how I do it!
