    I’m new to your blog, but I really like how the comments are in bubbles. I would say maybe experiment with some different colors for fun!

  • amanda - August 13, 2008 @ 5:21 pm 24

    i work at CVS and i love your tips and spreadsheet!!

  • Lauren P - August 13, 2008 @ 5:14 pm 23

    I love the comment bubbles! Cute idea. I agree with the white. Perhaps a logo or pattern or even just a color.

    I’ve been looking at buying this book. Good giveaway!

    New visitor here, but love the blog already! I’m constantly looking for bargains! My only comment about the blog is I hate the red on white. It’s so stark that it’s harsh on the eyes. I look at a computer screen all day so something more muted would be easier on my eyes!

    Great idea for a giveaway. I like your site! Lots of good money saving ideas.

    Love the freebies.
    Have to partially agree with the too much white idea. But don’t clutter it up too much with color and design. Some blogs have way too much!

  • Chrissy - August 13, 2008 @ 2:07 pm 19

    Well, from one CVS junkie to another, I love your site! And well…anything free is good for me! I think you’re doing a great job!

  • Rachel - August 13, 2008 @ 1:43 pm 18

    I love how the comments pop up as little talk bubbles! That is too cute. I also appreciate posts about stores other than CVS as there are no CVS stores in my area. Make that no CVS stores in my state!

  • Paula - August 13, 2008 @ 1:22 pm 17

    LOVE the title of your blog. The word “bargain” feels a TAD smooshed. How fun to find your blog through MSM!!

  • Shan - August 13, 2008 @ 1:18 pm 16

    I do like reading blogs on white, but I agree that some more color would be great… maybe a different color for the titles and the links on the side. Still, it’s beter than I could do!

  • Dea - August 13, 2008 @ 11:50 am 15

    Exciting! Congratulations! I love your site, as you know! Will be spreading the bloggy love! :D

  • Marie Lyman - August 13, 2008 @ 11:37 am 14

    I love the heading on your blog and the font you used but maybe the rest of the blog could have some more details.

    This looks like a fun cookbook.

  • Pam - August 13, 2008 @ 10:58 am 13

    I do appreciate how easy it is to navigate your blog. Not a lot of dark, distracting colors that make finding links difficult.

    Thanks for offering the cookbook, it looks great!

  • michelle rosborough - August 13, 2008 @ 10:20 am 12

    I love all the FREEBIES on your blog

  • CB - August 13, 2008 @ 9:53 am 11

    I guess that I disagree w/ Karen, because I don’t care for your header. I find the font (a tiny bit) difficult to read and the largeness and color of the header contrasts a little to much with the simplicity of the rest of your site. It might not be so bad if there was more color in the rest of it, I don’t know.

  • Karen - August 13, 2008 @ 8:19 am 10

    Oops–I’m commenter #9, too.
    I’ve been wanting this book; my toddler eschews all veggies except carrots & peas.

    I love your header! Welcome to the blogosphere!

  • Katy - August 13, 2008 @ 7:49 am 8

    I love how easy your blog is to read. White background and a great font! I love all of the white. Keep up the good work.

  • Brandy - August 13, 2008 @ 7:47 am 7

    I like your blog, but I agree with everyone else about the white. Maybe add some color.

  • GrnMtnGirl - August 13, 2008 @ 5:45 am 6

    While it’s easy to read on a white background, I think it needs more colors. I like the layout and the easy coupon clicker but the colors are coordinating right now. that would be my suggestion! Thanks for the contest. I’ve been wanting to see this book.

  • The Bargain Shopper Lady - August 13, 2008 @ 12:16 am 5

    Thanks for following me on twitter! I like the header and the simplicity of your blog! I already have this book but I just wanted to say hi!

  • Christina - August 12, 2008 @ 11:55 pm 4

    Good start with the blog! I agree about the white space, but also think you should get your meal plan up at the beginning of the week!! Then you could update the post as the week goes on as to what actually happened! Just a thought! Thanks for good info!

  • Danielle - August 12, 2008 @ 11:54 pm 3

    This is a great blog, but I agree with niki, there is just too much white space. I am not sure if it appears empty or just the fact that it is so blaringly white.

  • Mary Beth - August 12, 2008 @ 11:01 pm 2

    I’m enjoying your blog. Find many new offers and great things to read. Really enjoyed your home canning story as I grew up on a farm and do it as well. Thanks!

  • niki - August 12, 2008 @ 10:55 pm 1

    I like your blog! I also participate in MPM and I love checking out bew blogs. You have some cool ones in your blogroll.

    One thing I think you could do to improve the appearance of your blog is to get rid of some of this white space.

    :)
