Cute on a Dime 2





 Hi! This is what I wore for my last day of junior year; a trendy star printed dress, lace up boots, red heart sunglasses, a faux fur leopard print bag and pearl earrings. I love the fun print/color combo of this look. Today, I also purchased ad space on two blogs. Yay for more exposure! A blogger and a etsy shop owner both purchased ad space on my blog a while back and I used the money they paid to pay for my new ads. Want to sponsor my blog for as low as $3 a month? Check THIS page out.

Cute on a dime tip #2: Take advantage of the online rewards programs! I received this dress as a Chictopia reward and didn't pay a dime even though this dress retails at about $60. By just using their site, I earn points which I can spend in their Chictopia Rewards section. In the past, I have redeemed a bracelet, a $50 visa gift card, a maxi skirt and this dress. You can check out Chictopia HERE. I also love Swagbucks. Swagbucks is an online search engine that will give you "swagbucks" for using their search engine instead of google or bing. You can redeem those "swagbucks" in the Swag Store for items such as gift cards and magazine subscriptions. I know that I have received many Amazon gift cards by using Swagbucks as my search engine. If interested, you can sign up HERE. Any other online rewards programs that you love? I'd love for you to share them in the comments below!
