If you’re looking to buy a new Nintendo Wii game system, you might want to wait until December 5 to get it. According to their website, the almighty Wal-Mart will be offering a $50 gift card immediately after a Wii purchase on that day. Currently, the Wii is going for $199, which is already a sweet deal considering it cost $250 + tax just last year.

With this Wal-Mart gift card offering, you would only need to pay $149 for a brand new Wii. Don’t rush over to their website, however, because this offering will only be available in stores, not online. Keep in mind that this deal will only last till December 12 while supplies last. Generally, I don’t encourage payday loans for things like this, but if it’s something that will actually save you money in the end, why not?

You don’t have to wait till the 5th of December, however, to start your holiday savings at Wal-Mart (as if we don’t know that already). You can save big bucks on Wii games and other games at Wal-Mart as the retailer is offering 15-20% savings on 25 top video game titles.

Get Past Your Pride and Start Saving!

I’m getting a new Wii system for the hubby (shhhh) so I’m definitely stoked about this deal. Like I’ve said before, saving money is my main goal this holiday season. I’m going to target anything and everything that can help put a little something back in my pockets.

For those of you that would turn your nose up at the idea of shopping at Wal-Mart, please tackle your pride with some logic. You’ll find some of the best deals on games, electronics, groceries, diapers, you name it. If you want to save some money this Christmas, don’t let your pride become an issue.

The sketch last night on Jimmy Fallon’s show about Sarah Palin’s new book, “Going Rogue,” was all-out hilarious. Apparently, “Going Rogue” has gone rogue. For months, the anticipated book made headlines and was seen everywhere as far as the media eyes can see. All of a sudden, it disappeared! It snuck off the set of “Late Night”, stole a gun, shot Rachel Maddow, and ran off to see its lover: the New Moon.

Longer, Thicker Lash in Weeks!

If you want longer, thicker lashes, you might want to check out a fairly new product called RapidLash. According to their website, RapidLash.com, Rapid Lash is an innovative high-performance formula that helps thicken and improve the condition of your lashes and brows in just weeks of using the product.

Having long lashes is something most women would die for. Women have gone through extensive measures just to get longer lashes. It’s something about long lashes that makes your facial features even more attractive than they already are. I naturally have long lashes so it’s not really a huge problem for me. But I do know many women who wish they had longer, thicker lashes.

RapidLash Reviews

I first heard about RapidLash over the summer and I was a bit skeptical. However, after reading up on several blogs and reviews from reputable websites, I think it’s the next big thing in terms of growing longer lashes. I’ve heard nothing but positive remarks about the product.

Sarah-Jean, the Fashionable Housewife Editor- in-Chief, said that after using the product for six weeks, she noticed her lashes were notably longer. She even noticed fewer eyelashes falling out. It was so good she bought 3 tubes of RapidLash just to give away to her readers. Another blogger said she no longer has to curl her lashes, which is something we can all do without. Those lash curlers are a pain in the rear end. She did mention a slight irritation around her eyes during the first couple days, but it was gone by the third day and hasn’t had any reactions since then.

Is RapidLash Safe?

Some question whether this lash/eyebrow growing product is safe. A while back, someone from the Alternative Health Journal claimed that while Rapid Lash can help grow longer lashes, the product contains harmful chemicals like prostaglandin and cloprosteno, which he reported can also produce conditions that you don’t want like eye irritation, loss of vision, and eye-color change.

Steve Tarlow, on the other hand, who writes for the Money Blog at Personal Money Store, provides a contradicting explanation:

“What Rapid Lash has done is make some changes to the original eye-irritating formula. What they use is Isopropyl Cloprostenate, and Rapid Lash asserts that it is different enough from its base components to avoid the problems those non cosmetic components are known to promote. Reportedly, Rapid Lash has in the past and is conducting independent trials to satisfy nay sayers like Sevigny of Alternative Health Journal in order to conclusively prove their product is not harmful.”

See for yourself!

No matter what anyone has to say about the product, there’s no doubt that many people are convinced Rapid Lash is the best product to improve the appearance and condition of lashes and brows. And the product doesn’t come cheap either. You can get a tube of Rapid Lash for $49.95 plus shipping and handling. The company is currently offering a 40-Day risk free trial on the product (includes S&H fee of $6.99). So if you want to save money, you might want to take advantage of their free trial offering and see for yourself whether the product actually works. I’m going to try the product myself and I’ll make sure to post my own review on RapidLash.
