I feel like a winner. 🙂
I’m super psyched to announce that BargainBabe.com is a finalist for a really important award – the Best Deals and Bargains Blog in the Plutus Awards. Okay, so it’s not like I’m up for an Oscar, but for an everyday finance blogger like myself, this means being recognized by my peers for the hard work our team does everyday to save you money!!!
The nomination was announced Sept. 2 and the winner will be announced Sept. 20, 2014 at the FinCon conference in New Orleans. (I’m not able to go this year but I highly recommend it if you have a personal finance blog. You can also buy the Virtual Pass for $99 if you can’t make it.)
We were nominated along with some really awesome blogs – Bargain Briana, $5 Dinner Mom, Hip2Save, and Coupon Mom. Wow, those are HUGE blogs that do some really amazing work. I feel like a winner just being nominated. I’M SO CHEESY! This is the first award I’ve been nominated for so it’s a big deal to me.
Thanks for all your support all these years. You motivate me everyday to save!

Welcome to Bargain Babe! I’m Mara, and I’m so glad you’re here. I am an obsessive bargain hunter and penny pincher, and I am determined to live a full life without EVER paying full price.
Ha! Congratulations! I can say I knew you back when you worked for a local Los Angeles newspaper. Don’t forget us little people! lol – I’ll keep my fingers crossed!
Thanks Michelle!!! I don’t think I’m going to win – my blog is probably the smallest of all those nominated. But who knows?!?
Congratulations!!!!!
Thanks so much, Meredith!
You are always a winner!!
@Phyllis G Thank you Phyllis!!!
Congrats BB and I’m a finalist also but not in the same category LOL. Good luck and I’m very happy on being a finalist.
@THe Frugal Exerciser Thanks and congrats to you, too! What category are you nominated for? Are you going to FinCon this year? I’m so jealous I’m not going…but hopefully next year it will happen.
