The Rather-Be-Shopping.com Blog - A Blog We Luv
You may recall that we featured 10 Questions with Kyle of Rather Be Shopping last month. Since that time, I’ve become an avid reader of Kyle’s blog. Being a fan of both shopping and saving money, I can always find something of interest at the Rather-Be-Shopping.com Blog.
Kyle is an entrepreneur living in Northern California. His blog is just one small part of his home-based Internet business, Rather-Be-Shopping.com. Kyle is married with three small children, and being on a tight budget, he knows the secrets of frugal living. He has chosen to share them with the masses on the Rather-Be-Shopping.com Blog.
The Rather-Be-Shopping.com Blog dates back to January 2007. Initially, it focused entirely on online coupon codes, but in August it was expanded to include a wealth of information on all things frugal. Kyle now writes about a myriad of topics related to frugal living and personal finance. Through his money-saving tips, he hopes to make his readers’ lives a little easier.
While browsing the archives, I quickly discovered the source of Kyle’s vast knowledge of frugality. He learned from the master – his very own father! His post entitled My Old Man: Frugal, Cheap, or Just Strange? makes even the thriftiest of us seem like big spenders. The post received an amazing response, prompting Kyle’s father to make his big internet debut by writing a guest post for the Rather-Be-Shopping.com Blog.
I’d like to highlight a few of my favorite posts from the Rather-Be-Shopping.com Blog.
In How I Got Out of Credit Card Debt, Kyle discusses his battle with credit cards and the steps he took to become completely debt-free. This post is a must read for anyone struggling to pay off credit cards or any other type of debt. Kyle’s techniques are both reasonable and effective.
10 Tips for Debt Reduction contains even more practical steps you can take to rid yourself of those mounting bills.
Kyle’s list of the Top 10 Frugal Living Blogs contains more great blogs to help you stretch your paycheck.
In addition to these fascinating articles and many others, you’ll find hundreds of online coupon codes at Rather-Be-Shopping.com. Just look for the coupon links across the top of the page.
Whether living the frugal lifestyle or not, there’s something for everyone at Rather-Be-Shopping.com. Stop by, do some browsing, and tell Kyle that BlogsWeLuv sent ya!
Tish, what a great review, thank you, thank you! Darn it, now I have some expectations to live up to.
Thanks for posting my competition, Tish! :) Heh. Nice review, though. You picked some great posts of Kyle’s to highlight.
Kyle - I’m glad you like the review. You’re very welcome! :)
Andrew - Thanks! Sorry to post your competition, but you know I love your blog too! :)
Excellent review of a blog that deserves it. Lots of stuff to learn for bloggers interested in Shopping. Not quite sure how many bookmarks both are going to have today - but i did it! I’ll get to learn how to make posts really interesting and useful. Thanks both.
John - Thanks. Glad you liked the review, and thanks for stopping by! :)
Thanks Tish! Actually, I’ve reviewed quite a few number of blogs and whenever I’ve found something interesting or unique, I never hesitate to give credits to the blogger. I think it is too little a reward considering the hard and well-planned effort one needs to deliver while blogging.
Yours is an exceptional blog because of the subjects that you cover.
John - Thanks so much! I checked out your page, but it doesn’t appear you have a blog there. You should start one. :)
Thanks for your advice. But not too many people know the art of blogging. Anyway, I’ll keep it up in my mind.
