Nanny to Mommy

I was truly excited to receive the opportunity to review Sambazon Fruit Juices and Smoothies from Moms Meet. I have been on a health kick lately and have lost 35 pounds! And exciting as that is, I am getting tired of the same old thing. It's good for your body and diet to try and variety of different foods.

My daughter and I both loved the Sambazon Protein Acai Berry + Vanilla. It didn't look like a vanilla smoothie but it tasted like it. It was a great little pick-me-up after nap and before dinner.

How much money are you wasting by spending money on things you don't need? We think we need them because we are so addicted to them that we have convinced ourselves that we need them.

eBay has made this nifty quiz to figure out how much money you could save annually if you didn't smoke, drink alcohol, eat fast food, drink sodas, or drink coffee. The last was my worst vice.



Now I personally think name brand products can be vices as well. When you are on a budget, you can't afford to be brand specific. It is an unrealistic expectation. And if I hear another woman (who does all the grocery shopping) say she can't buy something because her husband likes a certain brand, I'm going to go crazy. My husband use to be brand specific on laundry detergent (for a period we had to be due to my daughter's skin allergies), bread, milk, and various other things. Those cost add up. I was doing the shopping. I bought what was on sale. That meant snack food only on special occasions. And you know what? he actually lost 10 lbs based on my efforts.

{Also being on a budget you should shop sales, but that's a post for another day all together.}



I could save over $800 a year according to this quiz if I didn't drink my daily cup of coffee. Now, of course, this quiz doesn't include my couponing efforts. And with taking care of two toddlers and working 12 hour days, giving up my one cup of coffee ain't gonna happen. But it was an eye opener to see how much we were spending.

Here is the link to the quiz, how much are you spending on your vices?
