    Homemade Resse's Blizzards (Shakes)


    My boys love to go to Dairy Queen to buy Blizzards, but with 6 boys the total price tag can be quite hefty!  Here is a quick and easy recipe for duplicating the yummy goodness without the high cost:

    Ingredients:

    • 6 large scoops vanilla ice cream
    • 1/2 cup whole milk
    • 4 large Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, chopped

    Directions:

    1. Add ice cream and milk to a blender. Pulse until combined but still very thick. Remember, this is a blizzard not a milkshake.
    2. Add in peanut butter cups and give a quick pulse to combine. Enjoy immediately.

    Do You Really Know Your Credit Cards Terms and Conditions


    Many of us think that we know what we are getting into when we fill out a credit cared application, but do we really?  It's really scary to realize how many people are completely unaware of how their credit card account really works beyond the annual interest rate.  Do you know all of the situations in which you may be charged extra fees, interest, and penalties?  Not knowing can make owning a credit card a lot more expensive than you think!

    I know that reading the fine print is a great way to fall asleep when you are having a bout of insomnia, but here are a few things that you should really comb through the fine print to find out:

    What happens if I pay my bill late? In most cases, a late payment means not only having to pay interest on your balance, but also a penalty or late fee.

    What happens if I exceed my credit limit?  Every card has a credit limit, or a maximum amount you can "borrow" but some cards will let you exceed the limit.  If it does, you are likely to be assessed a hefty fine.

    Will I be charged if I transfer the balance of my card to another card?  Many people like to take advantage of balance transfer card offers which offer a 0% interest period in order to shift debt and save interest costs.  However, some cards may charge you a fee for transferring balances.

    What will a cash advance cost me?  Most credit cards charge an additional fee for taking out cash from an ATM using your credit card, and these fees for "cash advances" can be large.

    When does the introductory period end? Many people are enticed by offers of low or 0% interest.  Search the fine print of such offers to see when yours ends, and make a note of it on your calendar to avoid being caught off guard.

    Frugal Fun Ways To Stay Fit This Summer

    Are you looking for ways to stay fit this summer, but want to keep it budget friendly?  Here are a few fun and frugal ways to get that beach body without breaking the bank:

    1. Hit the internet - There are tons of great resources on-line from support groups, to healthy recipes, to workouts that will help you stay healthy.  I love working out with many of the free workouts available on YouTube.  One of my favorites is blogilates.  She not only offers great workouts, but healthy eating advice as well.

    2. Get Social - Find a workout buddy or group of buddies to stay inspired.  You can walk the neighborhood as you chat or get really serious with your own boot camp. This article is a great resource for starting your own boot camp.

    3. Get Fit With Fido - Why not multi-task?  If you have to take the dog for a walk anyway, you might as well squeeze in a calorie burn as well. Craig Kelley of DogExplorer.com shares a ton of great ways to get in shape with your pet that go beyond the whole "take a walk".

    4. Schools out - hit the track - With school out of session, it is the perfect time to hit up the high school or middle school track.  If you haven't been active, you might want to start with walking or jogging, but if you keep it up you will be sprinting in no time.

    5. Play With Your Kids - Leo Babauta offers some great advice on how to use your kids as a gym.  Not only will you feel the burn, but your kiddos will feel the love.
