 I start by saying “My name is Heidi. I am an American and I like discounts!” Now you say, “Hi Heidi!”


Did you follow the JCPenney story? Apparently, when you take away an American’s ability to “get the deal,” they don’t like it. Under their “no discounts” pricing plan, JCPenney reported losing $4.3 billion in one year. YIKES, that’s a big chunk o’ change! 


Let’s face it, Groupon has proven that we love discounts on all things: massages, golf games, carpet cleaning, wax jobs, hot air balloon rides, groceries, etc., etc.

“Are we there yet?” said the very sweet six year old voice from the back of the SUV. Unfortunately, the thirteen hour road trip had started just 35 minutes prior!  I was very excited to take my two young nieces from the Dallas suburbs to quiet, idyllic rural Iowa. However, I was not prepared for such an extensive road trip, as evidenced by the ginormous Gatorades I allowed them to consume along the way (note to self:  less drinking and less sugar!). I learned a lot from that summer and following summers when we continued the tradition and set off on cross-country adventures.

Of all the things you’ve bought online, have eyeglasses made it into your shopping cart yet? If not, it probably won’t be long before they do.  

Recently, I had a visit with Dr Dhavid Cooper, President & CEO of Frames Direct – the world’s largest online eyeglass retailer. Besides having a great accent, he gave me some tips to help as you “look” into that future!

The movie Identity Thief came out last weekend – have you seen it?  Well, it’s hilarious and a little scary at the same time!

Do you love to cook? Personally, I hate it. I hate planning meals, grocery shopping, touching meat. Julia Child said, “Until I discovered cooking, I was never really interested in anything.” Well, I have plenty of things I’m interested in and cooking isn’t one of them.

So here we are, one month into a new year and a new medical plan for many. Have you noticed any changes? Do you have a higher deductible or changes in coverage, co-pay amounts, prescription coverage? You may be in the market for prescription discount cards.

This happened to our family a few years ago with a prescription my husband needs to take for a hereditary acid reflux issue (Pantoprazole). Here is our personal story and how we used prescription discount cards to save $2190.

Why is this goofy guy pictured on our post this week? You'll have to read ahead to find out!  

So, how are those New Year’s Resolutions going? Statistics (and gym traffic) show many don’t usually get past the first 3 weeks of January!

Did you resolve to lose weight and/or get healthy for 2013?  

At this time of year, we all want to decrease our weight in the time it takes to read a blog-post like this! But those who’ve made lasting health changes in their lives tell us it takes a little longer.
