Inexpensive Web Hosting

In order for any business to be successful today, an internet presence is crucial. It doesn’t matter whether you own a restaurant, brick and mortar store, or sell a service. A large percentage of the world browses online and also does a good portion of their shopping online. Hosting a website may be an expense you think you can’t afford. The truth is, you can’t afford not to!

As a blogger myself, I waited a year to go to a self-hosted blog. I thought it would be expensive and difficult to manage. I finally made the leap when I came across an offer for $5 a month hosting. My traffic has tripled since then. I have used a couple of different hosts and have been pleased with both. Some of the hosts businesses are most pleased with include Dreamhost, Host Gator, and Twenty70. [Read more...]

Gift Baskets Plus

Almost everyone on my holiday list lives in another state. This makes gift buying a little more difficult. I hate to send cash or gift cards every year. I LOVE gift baskets because they are much more personal gift and there is a variety to choose from. However, I find every year it gets more and more expensive to send a nice basket full of goodies. Gift Baskets Plus is my solution this year (and will be for many more I am sure). They have a very nice selection of baskets at very reasonable prices.

This is a company you can count on because they have been in business for over 10 years. Not only will I be saving money, you can too! Gift Baskets Plus was kind enough to give A Goddess of Frugality readers 15% off a basket using the code 15OFF. Whether you are looking for candy, wine, ales, fruit, or gourmet foods, Gift Baskets Plus has you covered this holiday season.

There are also Hannukah gift baskets available as well!

Check the baskets out for yourself. There is a very large selection to choose from and again don’t forget to use discount code 15OFF!

*I will receive a gift basket in exchange for this post. No monetary compensation will be received. All opinions are 100% my own. Photos courtesy of Gift Baskets Plus.

Test It Tuesday-Pillsbury Artisan Pizza Crust with Whole Grain

I was recently sent a great kit from Pillsbury to make homemade pizza! I received a baking sheet, pizza cutter, oven mitt, $10 Visa gift card for supplies, and a coupon for free Pillsbury Artisan Pizza Crust (Whole Grain). My husband (who is the cook) was especially ecstatic about the pan and pizza cutter! He has been asking me for awhile to pick up a pizza cutter (which I never happen to think of at the store) and our baking sheets were ready for replacement. This new baking sheet is awesome and nothing sticks to it!

On a fortunate note, the pizza turned out great! My husband expected the dough to messy, but was pleasantly surprised it was easy to work with. He added some pizza sauce, mozzarella cheese, and pepperoni on top and it tasty. Unfortunately, our picture didn’t turn out very well of the finished product, but the pizza was good. My 13 year old liked it even though he didn’t expect to after seeing “whole grain”.

As a family, our honest take is we would purchase this pizza crust again as an occasional treat. It was quick and easy to make.  As for homemade pizzas, this is one of the better ones I have tried. Right now,  Pillsbury (through My Blog Spark) is offering a $1.25 off coupon for Pillsbury Artisan Pizza Crust with Whole Grain. Go ahead and print it and give it a try!

Update: We made this again and here is a picture!
