***Congrats to Lisa from msfituniverse.com, You were randomly chosen by Random.org today as the winner of this printer. Check your email. Thank you to everyone who entered. I have loved reading all of your money saving tips!***
I have a confession- all my pictures are digital. I have over 9,000 stored online. I never print them. Why? Because ink is just a wee bit cheaper than diamonds.
Well, not quite that expensive, but still- you know what I mean right? The ink is outrageous. Here at Financial Bliss, we are always looking for the best deals to save money for you.
We love this great printer because the ink is affordable. Kodak was nice enough to allow us to not only test it for ourselves, but give one to you! I played around with the printer all weekend and the photos look great.
Guess who is going to actually print her photos again?

My favorite tips are coupons on line and off. i never make a buy without one and have saved a lot of money. Thanks for the giveaway.
My favorite money saving tip is cutting out coupons and trading with friends/family the ones you dont need.
My favorite money saving tip is to purchase a sunday paper and cut coupons. Try to match the coupons to sales for even better deals.
The website informed me that I overpaid $154.54 on ink! YIKES! :-0
I recyle and reuse
Recycle is the way to go
recycle and find new uses for old items
Combining coupons and sales work for me. I really love it when I can get double or triple coupons!!
I bought a Brita filter system and refill water bottles. It not only saves on buying bottles of water, but it's also better for then environment. Don't make me live with your garbage! Reduce, Reuse, Recycle!
I love when I can combine a store coupon & manufacturer's coupon for great deals!
I also check out discount stores like Ross & TJMaxx before heading anywhere else.
Looks like I overpaid $305.52 in ink! Yikes!
My favorite money saving tip is to always clip coupons! A few cents here and there really adds up =D
my fayorite tip is to stay single
Clipping coupons is my favorite tip. My family gets together about once a week and we swap coupons. That way everyone gets what they need.
I have such an old printer that it's not even on the list! And I save money by not printing my photos out so much. In fact, I haven't been able to buy color ink in a while, since it isn't a necessity and it's $35! Crazy.
Ok, but really – When possible, I like to use a credit card that gives me cash back. Even if it's just a little, every bit counts! (and, of course, never carry a balance) I'm terrible with coupons.
TIPS:
-keep ripped black tights for a punk weekend look.
-change incandescent bulbs for fluorescents
-walk instead of driving to work
-make fabric "snakes" to stop drafts
Always, always carry your Coupons in your vehicle, you just never know when you might find that deal that your Coupon makes even Sweeter!
I overpaid by $202.03 annually! YIKES!!!
my fave money saving tip is simple and easy. Switch many of your household cleaning products over to plain white vinegar and baking soda! It really works. I add a bit of lemon as I am using it, and also sometimes a bit of essential oils too. Saves loads of $$.

One of my favorite money saving tips: Instead of spending $$$$$$$$$$$ to rent those new movie releases and video games from those 'over-priced' rental chains – next time, try renting for 'free' from your local library!
Yes, for absolutely 'free'!
Most public libraries offer free rentals on cds and dvds ( some even offer free video game rentals).
Usually, the only requirement for rental is a current library card; which is also issued 'free of charge'!
Thanks for the 'great' giveaway offering and good luck to all!
Money saving tip: Eat in!

We took quite a bit of time this year to put our entire household budget into Quicken. It's scary how it tracks but definitely keeps you on budget.
cutting out coupons and trading
When I need something something for a project, I almost always find something I already have that will do just as well.
My favorite money saving tip is to use the back of junk mail to print out printable coupons.

According to the PrintandProsper.com site, I have overpaid $182.14 on ink..yikes!
My favorite money saving tip is to buy only the things you really need insted of buying cheap things that is useless.
Favorite money saving tip … NEVER go grocery shopping when you are hungry
I bought a cap for my Keurig coffee pot that allows me to reuse the single cup coffee containers.
I have learned to shop like my grandmother and mother shopped…especially at the grocery store. I plan my menu not based on what we are hungry for, but by what is on sale that week. Using the grocery flier, I use what's on sale to give me ideas on what to make! It really makes it easier…I think coming up with the ideas of what to make without getting in a rut making the same things over and over is much easier when the store figures it out for me!
My best money saving tip (for nonessential items) is this: just say no. If no doesn't work, then I say not now. Then, if it is still demanding to be purchased 48 hrs later I check ebay, look online for coupons or reconfigure my budget to allow for it.
my favorite money saving tip is to keep a post it on my credit card that says "Is that worth going inot debt for?" It reminds me that I need to watch my instant gratification impulse :p
best money saving tip Always shop with a list and NEVER deviate from it:j
I just joined Blissfully Domestic's community! Very COOL!!
Money saving tip: Gotta get a Kodak printer, it's a no-brainer, ink is cheaper, lasts longer, ink prints more pages, and then I have more money to have FUN with!!!!
I think Dave Ramsey's ideas on budgeting with cash is great, you can't overspend it if you don't have it in your pocket AND you really feel every dollar when it comes out in cash!
My favorite tip is to stock up on sale items that you actually use. Thanks for the giveaway!
