Summer Piano Lessons by Sommer

(Christmas Recital 2012)

If you and your child have been wanting to give piano lessons a try, summertime is the BEST time!  I have opened a few slots for new students if you are interested.

I have been teaching piano for one year AND loving it (and if you would like a reference, I am happy to comply).

I am offering a super deal of $70 per month for four 30 minute lessons (plus the cost of books).

Summer piano schedule begins next week, so don't delay.

Give me a call if you are interested in learning more or signing your child up.

Combine Those Deals

Before you go and buy anything, be sure to do the following:

1.  Check to see if you have a coupon.  I simply google the product I am buying followed with the words, "coupon."

2.  Take a look at the circulars from all of the stores that carry the product you want (and many of the large stores WILL price match) and find where the item is cheapest.

Here is a simple example of how it worked for me today (and btw, I hadn't done one lick of Christmas shopping prior to this purchase...BEEN CRAZY BUSY):

My son wanted a Mario Game for his upcoming birthday.

I found a coupon for Target (I simply went to their site on Facebook and then printed), "spend $50, get $10 gift card in return." This deal is good through tomorrow, December 8.

I found that Toys R Us had all of their video games, Buy one, get one 50% off through the weekend. I took the circular to Target where I was able to combine both deals.

I purchased two games, (and one actually on sale at Target and not at Toys R Us), saved $10 (just because they had it on sale), got one 50% off AND received a $10 gift card!

I love it!

I guess I had better start doing some more Christmas shopping...STAT!

Make Sure YOU Shop Smart Online!

The holidays are upon us and many of us (if not most of us) are still shopping, shopping, and shopping. In the last few years I have come to love online shopping. If you shop smart you can save a lot of money and wasted time and energy at the crowded stores.

Make sure that you always check with Ebates and Shop at Home to see if the store you want to buy from is offering a cash back bonus--they usually are. I recently saved an additional $9 off the curtains I ordered from Target and still scored free shipping just from searching these two sites. Most of the time I find that I use Ebates over Shop at Home, but I ALWAYS check both to make sure that I get the most bang for my buck. And you might as well do the same since they don't cost anything and are easy to sign up for!

Happy Shopping!
