Target: $3 Staycation DVD + FREE Movie Ticket!
This Hip2Save.com Deal was hand-posted on Wednesday, October 28th, 2009 at 12:11 am.
(Photo courtesy of FrugalForYou!)Remember the Movie Staycation Target deal I posted about previously and talked about in my Target video? If not, here’s a quick recap:
Target has select movie Staycation DVDs priced at just $5 each ( Matilda, Little Women, Swan Lake Princess, Jumanji and more). Pair these great buys with the $2 coupon available here (Hurry–expires on 10/31). Final cost only $3 per movie… not bad!
To sweeten this deal further, some of the $5 movies have yellow stickers on them (like the one pictured above). The yellow sticker says “Get a Movie Ticket!”. Basically you’ll get a FREE movie ticket (up to $7.50 value) to go see Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs or Planet 51. You just enter the code on the back of the sticker here and print the movie ticket! How cool!
If you’re able to find the $5 movies with this sticker and use the $2 coupon– you’ll ONLY be paying $3 for a DVD + a movie ticket with a $7.50 value! What a sweet deal!
Like I stated above, you’ll want to hurry and get in on this deal! The $2 coupon expires on 10/31!
(Thanks so much, FrugalForYou!)

Guest Post: Earn Extra Money Doing Surveys!
This Hip2Save.com Deal was hand-posted on Tuesday, October 27th, 2009 at 9:30 pm.
Guest Post By Nicole from Nicole’s Nickels:
Looking to earn some extra money?
Doing online surveys may just be the answer for you! Now, don’t get me wrong, you can make money doing surveys but they won’t make you rich! Depending on how many companies you sign up with and how dedicated you are to doing surveys, you can earn around $100 per month! That breaks down to just about $3 per day.
I have been doing surveys for over a year now and love the additional income. It’s my gas money for the month! I do surveys from home, in my pjs, while on the phone or watching TV. Who doesn’t love earning some money from home?
Here are a few tips for a good survey experience:
1. Sign up with a separate email address. I don’t get spam in my surveys email account so that’s not the reason I recommend this. It’s because you’ll get A LOT of survey invitations and it can get overwhelming. I try to make it a point to log in to my survey email account each day otherwise some surveys may not be available.
2. Sign up for as many companies as possible. There are a lot of survey companies out there and not all are legit. I’ve posted on my blog about all of the ones I am personally signed up with and my experiences with them. You’ll want to sign up for as many of them as possible.
3. You won’t qualify for every survey. You won’t qualify for every survey you try. Many are looking for a specific demographic and will disqualify you if you don’t fit it. Don’t get discouraged. All it takes is $3 per day and you’re at almost $100 for the month!
4. Keep track of each company you sign up for, your account, and payment timeline. Each company is different so I recommend keeping a document with your login info, account info and the payment method and timeline. Choosing Paypal sometimes means you’ll get paid faster.
5. Inviting friends to join will sometimes earn you extra money. Most survey companies have a referral program where you earn extra money or points when people sign up. Check out each company you are signed up with to see whether they have a tell-a-friend program you can use. It’s a win-win situation!

What a great way to build up your stash of coupons and even better, for products you actually like and use! I would suggest, just like Kristin did, to set aside time each day to email a few companies… maybe 2 or even 10. If you email a few companies everyday for a year, just imagine all the coupons you’ll be receiving on a regular basis! Pretty motivating, huh? I think I may have to email a few companies right now!
**If you need more ideas for companies to email, then make sure to check out this post over at Couponing To Disney. If you scroll down a little, you’ll see a long alphabetical list of the 250 companies she emailed! You can also check out her post here where she discusses why it’s a great idea to start doing this and how to personalize your emails for each company you decide to write.
