Old Navy Assists In Boosting School Attendanc...
Published on Friday, December 17, 2010 by caryn Growing up, my parents instilled within me the importance of placing a high value on my education. I loved school...so much so that I went back to obtain my Master's degree several years ago. I can't imagine intentionally skipping school, but nationwide, it is an important issue that must be addressed. Even now as my son attends preschool, I strive to foster a l... Read More » -

Holiday Activities At South Coast Plaza
Published on Tuesday, November 30, 2010 by caryn As soon as November 1st comes around, stores magically transform into their holiday alter-identities. It's sheer brilliance when a mall or shopping center offers holiday activities, because it gives parents the freedom to bring children shopping with them if they choose. A week ago, I spent some time at South Coast Plaza taking part in their holiday activities. ... Read More » -

The Daily D (eal)
Published on Wednesday, August 25, 2010 by caryn I may not be Consumer Queen, but the hubby says that I "rock" at scoring great deals. I try not to buy anything that's not on sale, use coupons whenever possible (including online coupons), and do a ton of research before making purchases. I was recently introduced to Daily D, a site that hand-picks the best local merchants to provide you with significant discount... Read More » -

Have You Heard? South Coast Loves Bloggers!
Published on Friday, July 9, 2010 by caryn I learned how to shop from my mom. As a former New Yorker, she'd buy a new outfit every week during her time as a single woman. Shopping was (and still is) our "thing." I grew up in LA, where there was no shortage of malls. But on those weekends when we would make the trek down the OC, I had to visit South Coast Plaza. A couple of weeks ago, I had the privile... Read More » -

Budget Conscious and Fashion Savvy
Published on Sunday, May 16, 2010 by caryn I recently talked about how little shopping I do for myself these days. Mostly it's because I'd rather buy clothing for my kids than myself. When I actually do get around to it, I think I do it quite well. Before I had kids, I'd consistently pick out the most expensive items. However, I would also find the best deals. This week TwitterMoms is asking for our... Read More » -

My Marshalls’ Shopportunities
Published on Wednesday, December 16, 2009 by caryn A little over a week ago, my doorbell rang at 6 am. Outside was a car and driver (and my blogging buddy Julie) waiting to take us on a red carpet ride to Marshalls. I felt a little like Cinderella being whisked away to a ball....except for the rain...and the time of day! So what was this trip all about? I was to learn all about off-price shopping from style ex... Read More » -

Shopping? Red Carpet? I’m SO THERE!
Published on Sunday, December 6, 2009 by caryn Just hearing the two words shopping + red carpet make me want to jump up and down. But I don't think that's a good idea at this time! Tomorrow morning I get to wake up at 5 am (and I'm actually excited about it), get in a car with Julie and head to LA for the Marshalls Holiday Red Carpet Event. Rain? Cold? It doesn't matter. We're going SHOPPING! If you k... Read More » -
