MotherLoad Picks of the Week

Here are my picks for good reads this week…

Good Morning America is doing a series called, “$100 a Day in May.” They show how you can find free money each day in May. Lots of great tips, but my favorite was May 18th when they sent two designers out to the Dollar General to find decorations for a party ($75 limit). They had some cute ideas that would be nice for a summer party or a child’s birthday party. Check back each day to get more ideas for ways you can be maximizing your dollars.

A Food Year is a great blog where you can get a new dinner idea for each and every single day! Ken Sloan is on a quest to try a new dish each day, document his review, gives you the recipe, and provides a photograph of his masterpiece.

Getting Out of Debt has some great frugal gardening tips, that could help even the most experienced gardener. I do not garden. I make things die…a rapid death. I love those who garden though so that is why I am including that one!

Boston Gal’s Open Wallet shares a great freebie that is worth looking into (if you are a contact wearer). Bausch & Lomb has created a Wear & Care program. If you sign-up they will send you a kit which includes 12 contact lens cases, wear & care CD, care and cleaning mirror stickers, free trial certificate for Bausch & Lomb PureVision contact lenses, information about Bausch & Lomb eye vitamins, and coupons for Bausch & Lomb ReNu MultiPlus solution.

Don’t forget to take this week’s poll on your favorite summertime activities!
