This is Bargain Babe’s – um – Captain Credit’s latest video with CreditCards.com. This time around, she shows you how to fix your credit in just three easy steps. She’s in full superhero costume!

You have to watch this video of personal finance blogger, Kevin McKee, singing about his love for ROTH IRAs. It’s hilarious! I love the chipmunk vocals. He does a parody of Bruno Mars’ hit song “Just the Way You Are.” McFee blogs over at  Thousandaire.

In the second video I made for CreditCards.com, I talk about three ways to cut down on credit card offers and junk mail. Enjoy!

Scary. That’s the only way to describe this week’s preview of Extreme Couponing, airing tonight on TLC. The clip below is about a family that coupons so their 6-year old can be a beauty pageant queen.

It’s been awhile since I made a video, and I’m super excited to come back with ones that involves my preggo belly and a blowtorch. My job rocks!

That’s quite a scowl!

This looks like a really fun DIY project! Just think how fun it would be to go to a holiday party in these bad boys, and how much money you’d save compared to buying designer brands. I wonder how long the glitter really stays on, though…

 

Wanted to share this video from Daily Finance (AOL) on how to find leaks that are making your heating bill higher than it needs to be, and fixes that cost as little as a few bucks.

Even if your utility company doesn’t provide a free energy audit to find leaks, the video has a secret to doing it yourself! I really need to make time for this stuff!

My weatherizing to do list:

  • Check if my utility offers free energy audits
  • Finish insulating basement pipes with foam insulation that we have laying around!
  • Caulk leaky windows
  • Buy and install insulation strip for drafty front door

What weatherizing projects are you not looking forward to doing?

Loud. Brash. Egotistical. That’s how I would describe Ramit Sethi, the New York Times best selling author of “I Will Teach You To Be Rich” Video making fun of coupon clipping and frugality. Ramit was the keynote speaker at the Financial Blogger Conference I attended and presented at earlier this month. He kicked off his talk with this video, which ticked off a lot of frugal bloggers.

After the conference my friend, Jen from Balancing Beauty and Bedlam, chatted me up on Skype.

Jen: Ok, I just watched the video…Funny, yes, but a TOTAL insult to frugal bloggers. So, was it funny in the context of his talk, or if you are a frugal blogger sitting there, would you still have been totally insulted?

Watch last week’s clip of Extreme Couponing.

Here’s a clip of Wednesday’s episode of Extreme Couponing on TLC. It shows a woman named Perry who clips coupons to keep her family eating an affordable vegan diet.

A new season of TLC’s controversial show Extreme Couponing airs tonight, Sept. 28, 2011, at 10 EST/7 PST. Am I going to watch it? No. I’m going swimming, and then I’m going to watch “Raising Hope” on Hulu, which has fewer commercials.

Buuuut…I did catch this sneak peak about a woman from North Carolina who proudly clears the shelves so not a single coupon goes to waste. “You shoulda beat me to the store,” she says. Her $10,000 stash includes 250 bottles of body wash. Good luck using that up before it goes bad! (Eyes rolling). The video has multiple previews, interspersed with brief ads.

We have many coupon resources for you!

Longtime reader Glenn shared a dirty secret about hotel room safes. They’re not safe at all! He writes:

Do you ever use the hotel safe in your room? If so, do you know about the default combination code that can make your valuables “less safe” than you thought? If the answer is “No,” then you must check out a video that was posted on YouTube on Sept. 6th by skyrangerpro.

Here is the video Glenn mentioned. It’s been viewed more than a million times!
