    A smaller logo at the top perhaps? Fun giveaway!

    I like your blog. You are on topic and have many resources for the frugal minded. I like the clean look.
  • Betsy - August 14, 2008 @ 8:56 am 53
    I Stumbled and I was the first to review your blog.
  • Carrie H. - August 14, 2008 @ 9:22 am 54
    I just discovered your blog. I love CVSing and I’m happy to find another place to learn about money-saving scenarios. I like the clean look of your blog. Maybe my only suggestion is to shrink your banner a bit. Thanks!

    I like the search function on the top right side – its easy to find and search!!

    Thanks for the opportunity to win this book!

    I really love this giveaway! Thanks for offering it!

    I think your blog is really great, you give lots of great deals! My only suggestion would be to brighten it up a bit. The red and black is nice together, but there’s too much white and you could use and bright accent color to kick it up a notch! :)

    I’m hosting a cookbook giveaway on my blog, too. Check it out at http://mountainmorning.blogspot.com if you’re interested.

    I’ll post about your giveaway and then come back to let you know. Thanks again!

    I’d like to see more color on your blog. I’m a visual person and the more color there is, the more it catches my eye! You do have lots of useful info, though.

    Great giveaway!

    I like your header, and I adore reading about canning!
  • Staci J. - August 14, 2008 @ 10:24 am 59
    I love your header. It is attractive and simple and really draws you in.
  • sarah b - August 14, 2008 @ 10:38 am 60
    I like your header, but I think you need more color. The white background is just too white.
  • Tisha - August 14, 2008 @ 11:01 am 61
    I have been wanting to get this cookbook, I think it is great. Your blog is cool, but I think it would be fun to have a colorful background to make it unique!
  • Linda - August 14, 2008 @ 11:02 am 62
    Thumbs up for you kiddo.Looking good.Keep it up.
  • Kam A - August 14, 2008 @ 11:06 am 63
    I love all of the freebies and deals you find! Thank you for sharing them!
  • Lindsie - August 14, 2008 @ 11:12 am 64
    Everyone seems to be commenting about the white! Maybe a light background color so that everything is still easy to read. I love how your catagories are broken down by store. It’s much easier to find deals that way when we don’t have some of those stores near us.
  • charline s - August 14, 2008 @ 11:27 am 65
    I like your blog, the articles are great, I love to coupon and save money. The only thing I don’t like is the solid white background. Maybe a light color would be better. All the white is kinda hard on my eyes.
  • Kristy - August 14, 2008 @ 11:30 am 66
    Great blog. I like our articles. The only thing I think could be improved is less white space in the background.
  • Cassie G - August 14, 2008 @ 11:34 am 67
    I love the info on your blog and agree that your blog needs some color. I am so excited to have found your blog and will definately be checking back to see the changes. Great giveaway!

    It is so nice to have a fellow indy gal here! My only suggestion is that you add Kroger! Everything else is great! thanks so much!!!!

  • Sarah C. - August 14, 2008 @ 12:22 pm 70
    Glad to have stumbled on your blog! I like the suggestions and links – could you put some of them across the top? The list of links is a bit overwhelming all down one side.
  • vicky - August 14, 2008 @ 12:49 pm 71
    I love your blog and how you explain how to save money
    you rock
  • Louise Brouillette - August 14, 2008 @ 1:24 pm 72
    I’ve heard about this and would like to read it
  • jenni williams - August 14, 2008 @ 1:34 pm 73
    I like the blog and the cheapies! but I agree with several other posters about the white!
  • Roseann Kies - August 14, 2008 @ 1:42 pm 74
    I would love to own this book! I took it out of the library and enjoyed reading the recipes! Thanks for the great contest!
  • Joy - August 14, 2008 @ 2:01 pm 75
    I follow your Marsh deals on Thursdays. It would be helpful to me to maybe put the best deals at Marsh each week in one section, or at the top or someway to specifically highlight them so I know what the best bargains of the week are.
