There are thousands of debt consolidation companies that are competing for your business, but selecting a dependable non profit debt consolidation company can truly become an intimidating task. While exploring non profit debt consolidation companies, you must take some important factors into consideration.A lot of debt consolidation companies claim they are non profit, but in reality they earn in millions. These companies apply the “non profit” tag simply to attract consumers. Consumers believe that these debt consolidation companies are working for their best interests. Other debt consolidation companies apply the “non profit” tag to infringe telemarketing regulations from which charitable institutions are granted relief. Request for evidence of non-profit 501(c)(3) status prior to doing business with any such company.

On March 5th I wrote about the Seventeen magazine and Aeropostale Free Tank Top offer.  Well, just an update for you all, my oldest daughter and I took a trip over to the mall yesterday and walked into Aeropostale with our Seventeen magazine and we got our FREE TANK!

Here is my daughter modeling the current Aeropostale “Do Your Part” tank and holding up last years “Miss Save The World” Tank.

Last year we had a bit of a drama situation around that tank.  We received the Seventeen magazine and saw the ad for the Miss Save The World Tank.  So one day while my daughter was in school, I drove over to the mall, picked it up and suprized her with it after school.

She wore it to school a few days later and while she was swimming during gym, someone went into her locker and stole it.  She was so upset, not just because someone stole it but because she knew I went out of my way to get it for her.  So I felt bad and told her not to worry about, maybe whoever stole it needed it more than she did. 

We go to find the Seventeen magazine to try and explain what happened to get another one, but in my brilliance, I put it in with the recycling and it was gone.

A few days later we’re at the orthodontists office and right there in the table is the Seventeen magazine.  Being that it was at the end of the month and the magazine was well read, as you can tell from the ragginess of it, (I used a lot of hand sanitizer that day), yes, we swiped the magazine from the orthodontists office.  

Driving home from the ortho office, we made a detour towards the mall and headed to Aeropostale.  We go in with the magazine and the guy behind the counter tells us to look at the date because the promotion was over.  Oh my goodness, he was right, I didn’t even realize what the date was!  I couldn’t help myself after seeing how disappointed she was and I explained how the original got stolen and what did this sweetie do? He bent down behind the counter and pulls out the very last “Miss Save The World” tank top and, IT WAS HER SIZE!

My daughter has guarded that shirt ever since then and now she has the new one, “Do Your Part” as of yesterday! Apparently my daughter couldn’t help herself yesterday either and told the guy at the register what happened last year and he just perked up with these piercing sky blue eyes of his and shakes his head back and forth,

 “Oh well, you know what they say, what goes around comes around…she’ll be the one who is seventeen, unwed and pregnant…(pause) with twins!” 

We both laughed at his manerisms and that cackle of his, not the comment itself because we would never wish that on anyone, but it is true that what goes around comes around. 

That’s my Aeropostale tank top story.  I’d have to say that yesterday was a great day overall. We got the tank and I won the Clinique Allure contest.  Feeling good!

Not only is Go-Gurt a healthy “on the go” snack, now if you have kids between the ages of 8 and 18, THEY can enter, (or you can enter for them) to win a Flip Ultra Camcorder because Go-Gurt is giving one prize away per hour!

How is this possible???  By entering the Go-Gurt Flip Ultra Camcorder Sweepstakes!  YAY! Be sure to read the official contest rules. This sweepstakes expires on March 29, 2009!

***on a personal note: I purchased one of these Flip cameras in June of 2008. I really do love this camera. It’s small enough to fit in my purse and whip out at a moments notice.  The camera is super easy to record with and easy to download videos into the computer but, the camera comes with 30 minutes of preloaded record time. Over the past year, as I have been recording and downloading, I realized that I lost 8 minutes of record time. I contacted Pure Digital Technologies (who created the camera) and they gave me a whole bunch of technical directions to follow. I did everything they instructed me to do but still couldn’t regain the lost 8 minutes. Finally I suggested shipping the camera to them and having them fix it there. Two weeks later they shipped it back with a letter telling me basically I was out of luck because the warranty expired. Needless to say I was very disappointed they didn’t back up this product, so if you do win and you have technical issues with it…be sure to check your warranty details!*** 

If you don’t win a Fip Camera, perhaps you can try your luck in the Mc Donald’s Mini Size Fun Game!  No purchase necessary! Be sure to read the official rules and then enter for your chance to win either a Wii with a Line Rider 2 game or one of three Nintendo DS Lite games with a Line Rider 2 game, or one of ten Line Rider 2 games for your personal home computer!  Winners will be selected each month until the Sweepstakes are over on March 31, 2009, but you can enter everyday to increase your chances of winning!
