Want to Make a Quick $25? It’s Easy!

I’m not a big spender and I very rarely use credit for anything, but it sure is nice to have a card on hand for those times when you absolutely need one! For those of you thrifty parents out there like me who don’t particularly like the idea of opening one or more lines of credit with a credit card company, there’s a solution that will actually make you money!

How?

Listen up. American Express is currently offering a $25.00 gift card for free when you purchase an American Express Prepaid Gift Card and load a minimum of $200.00 onto it!

You’re probably saying, “That’s it?” and I don’t blame you. It is unbelievably easy, right?

Seriously! Who knew you could make cash this quickly?

Um…this momma! LOL!

Whether you purchase one of these AMEX gift cards to pay your electric bill over the phone, give it to your new graduate, send it off with your college bound kid or use it while you’re on vacation this summer doesn’t matter. What does matter is that you’ll be making $25.00 that you can use wherever you like! I’ll probably be using mine to fill my trunk with goodies from my couponing adventures, but it could always go in the vacation jar, too!

MC Blog Challenge Day One – What gave you the inspiration to start a blog?

Did I just wake up one day and decide to start blogging? No. It wasn’t one of those…”Hmm…I think I’ll start a blog today!” type of decisions. My life is far too complicated to be able to make such spontaneous choices, although a little spontaneity is often welcome after days or even weeks of “typical” life.

What Influenced Me to Start a Blog

There are several things that influenced my decision to start a blog. The first was the fact that I had been writing blog posts for countless clients for the past eight years. I was getting tired of writing about what everyone else wanted me to write about and I didn’t want to tank my career, so I started considering options that would make me happier about my work – or at least make it bearable again. The one option that kept creeping back into my mind was starting my own blog and writing about what I was passionate about. I wanted to reignite that creative, happy spark that had been buried in the ashes, smoldering for years.

I thought about whether I could handle it – was it really possible for me to do? Would I have the time, the energy, the creativity left at the end of the day? Would people really want to read what I have to say?

The next thing I considered was cost. How much would it cost me to start my blog? I knew right off the bat that I didn’t want to go with a free blog, but a domain of my own, so that would cost me. Then I had to figure my hosting costs and any costs for design and alterations. Instead of paying a designer to craft a site that was all my own, I decided to start with a ready-made theme from Theme Forest that I could alter at will. That saved me over $1000, easily.


Would I be able to make enough money from it to justify the costs, without having to sell my soul to the devil? I write for a living and I’ve worked with several self-proclaimed SEO gurus, so I’ve learned quite a bit over the years. I knew that I could put this information to work for my site with little effort because I did it every single day for someone else. The rest was simply finding a niche that interested me and others. Instead, I chose to combine several niches that would make me happy and hold my interest for years to come. Family, saving money, cooking and gardening are all things that I am passionate about and I think lots of other moms are as well, so that’s what I went with.

The Bottom Line

Once I analyzed my costs and potential earnings, I realized that a blog was not only something I could reasonably handle, but also something that might be good for me and my family in the long term scheme of things. I knew that being able to write at whim about something that interested me would help me get through my days, be more content with my l

Is it right for everyone? No, but it’s right for me and I hope that you all enjoy what I’m creating.
