Local Free-Bee Fun
Dinosaurs! Bugs! Things that squish and crawl! Is it any wonder that my Zachie and MacLean totally dig the Utah Museum of Natural History? If you haven’t stopped by this summer, you can explore creepy dinosaur skeltons, gooey bugs and the new “Dino Show.” It’s free-bee admission this Monday (8.2) click here for directions and more info.
And here’s one to mark on your calendar for later. The Discovery Gateway Children’s Museum is offering free-bee admission on Tuesday, August 17th, thanks to a grant from Ernst and Young. You can find directions and info here.
Battling “Mommy Brain?”
It’s just pathetic: I’ve been getting more and more of those “mom-nesia” moments, when I can barely remember how to tie my shoelaces or work a doorbell. Before I had to give up and switch to velcro sneakers, I signed up for some “brain games” and fun little brain buzzers on Lumosity–it’s free, of course– to try to get Mr. Gray Matter working again.

How I Made $20.00 In 2 Minutes…
…I have a stubborn insistence on trying out saving methods and websites first before I post them here. There’s too many options that either waste your valuable time or just don’t offer enough return for the effort you’d need to expend. (Editor’s note: and yes, I’m the chump who has wasted her time so that you don’t have to. Just ask The Todd.)
After almost a year of budget blogging here on That Went Well, the easiest cash-back option has to be Ebates. I was a little late to the party on this one, but they made it up to me in a hurry–2 minutes, to be exact. I signed up for Ebates, ($5.00 for new signup, ca-ching!) then went through their link to Old Navy to buy a bunch of summer clearance items for the twins and some school uniform thingies. 10% cash back. ($15.19, ca-ching!) Just like that. So, in two minutes, I made $20.00 and even got free shipping with an Ebates code. I bring this up now because back to school expenses are the third highest expense of the year for families with school-age children. Take a minute to sign up with Ebates here and scroll through their options for cash back, discounts and free-bee shipping.
I’m setting my sights on Drugstore.com next. I’ll get free-bee shipping and a $25.00 gift certificate to Restaurant.com for any purchase of $25.00…which makes this…add the one, carry the four…FREE! Plus, don’t forget the cash rebate of 6% back! That makes this a money-maker. Hurry, this offer expires tonight (7.31)
