Parents With Style (I just found this blog and am LOVING it!) is hosting a giveaway right now…. You could win a Lexie Barnes Duchess Bag! Lexie Barnes bags are super cute. I really like the Pacifica Darling Bag, but the Hobo Bags look fun, too.

5 Minutes for Mom wants to give your child their first car!! That’s right… Head over and find out how you can win a red ’65 Mustang pedal car from Pedal Cars and Retro Collectibles. I am crossing my fingers for this one – Ben’s birthday is around the corner and he would love this!

One lucky winner is going to win a set of Colour-Me-Family Labels (60) from Kailani at An Island Life. I’m not sure that my whole family would fit!

There is a family who is currently in the process of adopting a 10 year old boy, named Bin, from China and they need our help. Visit Boys4Hire to see how you can help them reach their goal of $10,000 by February 28th. Updated to add: Check out their blog too, to find out how you can win one of three gift cards!

It has become such a chore to keep up with the toy recalls…. Ugggh! Have you signed up to receive recall alerts from the US Consumer Product Safety Commission? It takes but a moment and you’ll be notified every time they pull yet another toy off the market.

The site EatBetterAmerica.com is giving out free samples of the original Fiber One cereal. To receive a sample you must sign up for the Eat Better America newsletter. The newsletter is an e-mail that is sent out once per month and provides recipes and tips for people to start living healthier lives.

There’s a fun contest going on right now sponsored by Swiffer and YouTube…The Grand Prize for the contest is $15,000! It’s the Swiffer Break-up Music Video Contest. For the contest, Swiffer-lovers can submit a short video to YouTube that demonstrates how they “broke up” with their old cleaning products and now use Swiffer for all their cleaning needs. If you enter, you receive 10 free downloads of “break-up” songs to use in the video (that’s one of the requirements). The top 10 videos will be posted to YouTube for the general public to cast a vote for their favorite and the video with the most votes wins $15,000. See the complete list of rules, prizes and approved “break-up” songs at the Swiffer brand channel at http://youtube.com/SwifferBreakup

Did you know that Turbo Tax can help with your tax questions? During January, taxpayers can get their tax questions answered on a single topic by a tax professional free of charge. You simply submit a question online and a TurboTax tax pro will personally call them back at a time that is convenient for you. You can submit a question and see all the fine print (not much of it, honestly) at www.FreeTaxQuestion.com.

Oh, and I almost forgot… There is a new place to find free printable puzzles. Wuzzles and Puzzles has over 1000 mazes, word and math puzzles from which to choose. You and your kiddos have access to hours of fun! To celebrate their grand opening you can enter to win a HUGE bundle of prizes that include DVD’s, games, toys more!
