Life on the Road

With a new baby in the house, and having been quite ill lately, I haven’t been able to do anything with my home businesses.  I’ll go inactive with Tupperware at the end of this week if I don’t get $250 worth of orders in.

Would you consider helping?  There are lots of great sales and promotions going on…  Check it out at:  Tupperware Blitz (a company site - orders are shipped direct to your door!).

As a thank you for helping me out, anyone who orders before 12 noon on Friday, May 30th will be entered in a drawing for a terrific F.R.E.E. Tupperware package

And anyone who orders $25 worth or more will receive a F.R.E.E. gift directly from me!

Thank you!!

- Tiffany

Welcome, Two Moms in a Blog readers! 

I’m excited to be hosting this installment of the cool November Contest.  It’s been so fun participating in these challenges, I figured I should have one all to myself… 

So, without further ado, I bring you:

Challenge #13 - Wednesday Photo Game

Frame It Challenge

This is the last Photo Game Challenge! I can’t believe how fast this month has gone!

For this week’s challenge, you need to take a photo with a “Frame Your Subject” theme. Find a creative way to frame your subject using the surroundings, objects, etc. - and take a picture.

How to Participate

In order to participate, you need to take your “frame it” photo, and post it on your blog with a link back to this post (or email it to twomomsinablog@hotmail.com). Once you have submitted your photo, leave a comment on this post so we know you participated.  Your photo must be posted/emailed by midnight on Thursday, Dec. 6 in order to enter.

THE PRIZES

As with all the challenges this month, by completing this challenge, you will earn another ticket into the draw at the end of the month for a Kodak EasyShare All-In-One Printer.

One participant in THIS challenge will also receive a Tupperware Rock ‘N Serve 2-piece set (over a $20 value).  The winner of the Tupperware will be announced right here next Wednesday.

I made a wonderful discovery! 

I was trying to think of a way to take some snack foods in the car for Jewel the other day…  I have resisted buying a bunch of overpriced and over-specialized dishes for specific purposes like that, so I didn’t have anything really suitable.

Then I stumbled across the Tupperware spice container set that I bought recently, but haven’t yet filled with spices:

One side of the lid lifts to shake, the other side opens for pouring/spooning - or toddler fingers!  The small size is perfect for M&M’s, the large size is great for Cheerios!  Oh yeah, and I have the rest filled with spices, now, and that’s great, too…  LOL  Nice to know we won’t just be giving them to Goodwill when the princess outgrows them.

 If you want to check them out, just visit http://www.TupperwareBlitz.com and type “spice container” into the search box in the upper right.  (You can order securely online, and Tupperware will ship it right to you!)

P.S. Tupperware is having a great promotion right now for online orders - every 10th customer gets 10% off their order, and every 100th customer gets their entire order FREE!  VERY nice…

I just got an email from Tupperware that my favorite containers are on sale at 35% off right now… So that makes it an ideal time to tell you about them!

They’re called “Flat Out”

They come in a variety of sizes, and they fold flat for storage, then accordian out for use (and you can open them all the way, or any size in between - see the photos on the left, above).

Let me tell you, in the RV having them store flat is not just handy, it’s a NECESSITY!

I was skeptical at first about the durability of the “pleats” - but we have put them to hard use over the last six months, and they aren’t showing any signs of wear at all. And of course, being Tupperware, they have a Lifetime Guarantee if anything ever did go wrong…

There are a number of sets, but my favorite is the one pictured on the right, above. It’s an 8-cup container (pink), 2 4-cup containers (blue), 2 3-cup containers (green), seals (lids) for all of them, PLUS the cool storage rack that hold all of them (sit on the counter or hang on the wall).

There’s lot of other great stuff on sale right now - it’s “Back to School Sale” time until August 31st. Check it all out HERE…

Gwen Elliott lost everything in a house fire - including her only child.  To add insult to injury, her insurance company will not be covering the loss.

She’s a well-liked member of some of the online mom networking groups, and although I don’t know her personally I am certainly praying for her through this difficult time. 

If you’d like to help, or find out more, visit this site, put up by the team of WAHMs who have banded together to help - The Gwen Elliott Relief Fundraiser. 

I’m not personally part of the group organizing the relief effort, just a fellow WAHM who wants to help out.  We sent off a box of Tupperware to her, and I’m currently trying to figure out how we can do something to help with the AmeriPlan benefits…

I’m still trying to catch up with the sales and promotions that everyone’s offering in May - Wow!

May is AmeriPlan’s 15th Birthday, and the twin founders’ 65th Birthday, so naturally they’re offering presents:

- Pay ZERO for your first month!  Sign up for a Household Dental plan during May, and your first month is FREE (and depending on your billing cycle, this can actually be as much as 7 weeks!).  This gives you savings up to 80% on Dental, Vision, Prescription and Chiropractic services, with no limits, no deductibles, and no exclusions.  Their “household” is cool, too, because it includes anyone living with you - no limits on age or relationship like those insurance companies have - so it can be your married child, your cousin, your roommate, or anyone…  Visit www.LowCostDental4U.com.

- Of course they have great incentives for us reps this month, too…  And with the free month of benefits, it’s even easier to build up your business this month.  Check out TiffanyBlitz.com. 

May is also Tupperware’s birthday (did I miss the memo about starting a business in May?).  They have a ton of great specials going on for individual orders, for party hosts, and for consultants to earn, too.  Check out the sales at Tupperware Blitz if you’re so inclined.

Now if only the price of gas was discounted this month…  Being in California again makes me try to hoard every drop!

We were supposed to leave today.  Actually, we were supposed to leave yesterday.  We had even made reservations that the park in Prescott where we stayed last time we were there… 

But none of us felt up to packing it in and driving.  So we stayed.  We had to move over a few spots here, since someone had already reserved our spot this weekend, but now we’re scheduled to depart on Monday.

Hopefully this will give us a chance to relax a little, since our original departure was based on allowing enough time to do all the things we HAD to do while we were here.  Whew! 

I just found out, amazingly, that I’m “this close” to qualifying for incentives from Tupperware!  I joined on a lark, to get a discount on all the compact storage stuff we need for the RV.  Things sure have changed from the way I remember my mom buying Tupperware… 

Sure, some people still do “Tupperware Parties,” and for a certain personality type I’m sure that’s a lot of fun. ;) But they also have cool e-commerce websites (mine’s http://www.tupperwareblitz.com) where people can order securely online, and the company ships the product directly to them — I don’t ever have to get in the middle of it!

Someone back in Mississippi started a “catalog party” while we were there (she collects orders by having her friends look at a catalog, rather that getting everyone together), but had some things come up and it took a while to wrap it up.  It finally got entered this week, and looks pretty good on my sales record!  May is Tupperware’s birthday month, so they’re having a bunch of great sales and promotions for customers and consultants alike.  Who knows what I might stumble into with this…
