"Shoes are my absolute favorite! I love tall heels, short heel's and a nice sneaker to wear with my more casual apparel. I tend to wear my shoes out because I am completely in love with the style and can't afford to buy the ones that are drop dead gorgeous. But, I did happen to come across some places here at BigDeals101.com that sell great shoes for great low prices. What a wonderful shoe season this is going to be. I can hardly wait! "

I bought a Steam cleaner on BigDeals101.com and saved MONEY! YAY!

At BigDeals101.com you can find great ways to save during the recession on shopping, travel, entertainment and more.

So, I receive hundreds of deals a day to post on my website. It gets overwhelming at times but I know that it's something I need to sort through. There are certain sales that catch my interest and some that don't. Usually I get lots of deals from my affiliates but some just aren't my cup of tea. I don't need most of them but I post them because that is the purpose of BigDeals101.com; to help other's save money. Someone may need a coupon or a sale on children's clothing, but I don't because I don't have any kid's so...up on the site it goes. Hopefully the other 154,000,900,000,000 people in this world who have kid's can use it.

Anyway I needed to buy a steam vacuum for my house. I was interested in getting one because I needed to disinfect my home...my boyfriend was sick...really sick and he came over one day and I caught it too...UGH!
Well, as I was working on my daily to-do list for BigDeals101 I started going through my email account full of deals delivered DAILY. I opened the email from SEARS which had lots of savings in the newsletter with coding attached.
As I scrolled through the email, WHY did I see a link for 15% off of all appliances including VACUUMS?! I said YES! This is EXACTLY what I need and I wasn't even LOOKING for it!

No Lie, I clicked on my own link that was sent via SEARS and ordered online for in-store pick up! I ran down there ASAP and picked up my steam cleaner, Drove home just as fast and steamed the HELL out of my house! I feel better...thanks for asking... but I feel even better knowing that I was able to use my site the way I hope other's will and it came in handy.

And I saved $15. It may not sound like much now, but in this recession, that's $15 extra in my pocket thank you very much...now, what to do with it...hmmm. I'll find something I guess. Oh! When Sallie Mae call's me tomorrow ( cause they call me EVERY freaking day) looking for money down on my student loans...i'll say, "I don't have the $40,000 right now BUT..I do have 15 bucks!" Let's see what they say then.


Back to the topic, I'm not trying to sell you hype at all. I have my steamer but the point is, online shopping was Soooooooo much better than going to a million stores, trying to compare prices, filling up with gas, running into people (you don't want to talk to- or get sick), and I didn't even have to leave my house (except to go and pick it up which took less than 30 minutes) and I went right back to work.

I love my steamer, I loaned it to my bf so he can steam clean his house too but told him to keep it until he felt better. No use in cleaning my house again cause he and his germ friends wanted a party at my place. I like my steamer but, I don't like it that damn much to steam twice in a week.
