*******************

Next week I will be kicking off a new fun feature on The MotherLoot complete with a linky list for you to participate in each Thursday!

As a self-confessed drugstore junkie, I admit that I am addicted to drugstore shopping utilizing all of the free & cheap deals from the drugstores. I always wonder though if a product is really for me and even when using my Extra Care Bucks, I would love to know if it is worth the cost of time, storage, and the use of my register rewards!

I will have a new review feature each Thursday that my fellow drugstore junkies can participate in. Join me each Thursday for the “Drugstore Dish” and share your opinions on those great products you are scoring when doing your CVS & Walgreens shopping.

To kick it off, I am giving away to TWO lucky readers the new Maybelline Pulse Perfection Mascara today. This is Maybelline New York’s first-to-mass vibrating mascara delivers 7,000 vibrations per minute in 7 synchronized actions so lashes are transformed to perfection. This product is not out in stores yet, but will be sold in exclusively in Walmart nationwide starting on May 28th for $14.95.

To enter, tell me one of your favorite brands/items to buy at your drugstore or if you are a self-confessed drugstore junkie too! This contest will end on Tuesday (05/19) at 8PM EST and our winner will be chosen at random. Please only one entry per person and don’t forge
t to check back on Thursday for our very first Drugstore Dish linky list!

Last Weekly Redbox Code

Monday, May 11th, 2009

Today’s free Redbox code is 6A43JK. This code can be used all day until midnight at any Redbox location.

You can’t beat a free movie rental so schedule some fun family nights and check out what Family Films are available.

Side Notes:

– If you want to rent more than one movie for free, bring more than one credit/debit card. You can use the same promotional code, you just will need different cards to charge it to. The charge will be zero as long as you return your movie on time for the next day.

– When entering in your free movie code, you need to enter it FIRST before picking the movie. On the very first screen, click the, “Rent with Promo.” Enter in the above code and then make your selection- the amount should then total zero.. This code can be used all day until midnight at any Redbox location.

Unfortunately, this is the last weekly Redbox code! Here is the official letter that was sent out to their Redbox customers:

Dear Redbox Customer,

The word is out that you can take home new release DVDs for only a $1 per night from the big red box. We know you know, because you’ve saved that dollar as part of redbox’ Free Movie Mondays promotion, which is ending after May 11.

However, since so many of us could use an extra buck these days, redbox is going to keep the free flicks coming once a month throughout the summer. Beginning June 1, redbox will send a free movie code to your phone on the first Monday of the month as a thank you for using redbox.

So start thinking about what you are going to do with those 3 extra dollars this summer – pool noodle… 6 piece McNuggets® and honey… 64 oz cherry icie… And we’ll keep thinking up new ways to delight you – Hollywood’s newest releases, online reservations, movie reviews, witty remarks… seriously, it’s endless.

As new coupon codes become available, I will continue to post them! In the meantime, enjoy your free movie tonight!

Freebie Friday: May 8, 2009

Friday, May 8th, 2009

While you are visiting here, make sure to get your entry in for the fantastic Hoover Platinum Bagged Upright Vacuum that we are offering up for Mother’s Day and visit our entire Apron Full of Giveaways for a weekly list of great contests all over the web.

Most of all, Happy Mother’s Day to all of my wonderful mom readers. I hope you have a wonderful time with your families and you get loads of sweet hugs, kisses, and beautiful gifts showered upon you for all your hard work. You deserve these sweet rewards!

Amy
