Del Taco & Body Wash…Yes, it’s only Tuesday

While these aren’t necessarily, or at all, LA exclusive, and they might not be the classiest of finds, I have discovered ways for you to score free shrimp tacos at Del Taco and a sample of Olay body wash.

I’ll pause for you to celebrate.

Go here to become a “fan” of Del Taco on Facebook, where you can then find access to a coupon for a free Crispy Shrimp Taco.  (You might as well “defriend” them once you’ve printed your coupon… Just a thought.)

Go here to sign up for a free sample of Olay Total Effects Body Wash.  I’m assuming it will be travel-sized, which is great for a worldly broke girl.  I mean, c’mon, who really wants to spend money on those ridiculous, airline-approved sizes?!  (Even if they are adorable…)

National Pancake Day – Tomorrow

Posted on February 22nd, 2010 by Erin in Eat Well, Penny Pinch, Right Now

ihopSet you alarms, mark your calendars and schedule a vacation day because tomorrow, February 23rd, is National Pancake Day Celebration at IHOP! ( http://www.ihoppancakeday.com/ ) I doubt anyone is as addicted to these carbalicious disks of love as I am, but free food is free food.

From 7a.m. to 10p.m. at participating IHOP restaurants you can get a short stack (three) of buttermilk pancakes for free.  All IHOP asks is that you consider making a donation to support local children’s hospitals through Children’s Miracle Network, which you will do because you’re not a stingy tool.

The weirdest part of this whole event?  You can actually schedule yourself a wakeup call through IHOP’s website (http://www.ihoppancakeday.com/wakeup_entry.html )and Marie Osmond, Steve Young or some other random will “call” you to remind you.  Do what you gotta do.

Leaving Bank of America

Posted on February 19th, 2010 by Erin in Penny Pinch, Right Now, Think Smart

This is it!  Tomorrow I leave Bank of America once and for all. Who knows if I’ll find a lesser evil, but the uncertainty is better than staying with B of A, a.k.a. my abusive boyfriend.

Just thought I’d share.  Bye, bye, B of A…

Another Rec From Our Earth-Friendly(?) Intern

Posted on February 18th, 2010 by Sarah in Eat Well, Live Long, Right Now, Stay Fit

euphoria loves rawvolution(2)In my ongoing quest to find healthy, cheap, tasty vegan food, I recently ventured to Santa Monica because we all know you’re bound to find some organic, green, earthy something-or-other on every corner there.  And I did.

My roommate and I decided on Euphoria loves Rawvolution, an all raw food eatery with an atmosphere that suits its namesake.  (We’re talking hippie diners, mood music and little boutique-y finds.)

The menu there is intriguing to say the least.  You can order everything from cheese-stuffed jalapeños to California rolls, all made with raw, plant ingredients.

I actually really liked my meal (Big Matt with Cheese), but I want to stress that this is NOT date food.  I think I walked away wearing 10% of my meal and picking another 5% out of my teeth.  And don’t get me started on the aftertaste…

Aside from that, it’s pretty guilt-free eating, whether you’re watching your figure or you care about the environment.  As for the price?  Definitely broke girl-friendly considering the type of food and portion sizes.

Open 10am to 9:30pm daily

Location:  2301 Main Street (between Yoga Works & Urth Caffe) Santa Monica, CA 90405
Phone: (310) 392-9501
