Happy 3rd Blogiversary, Using Time Wisely!

Happy 3rd Blogiversary, Using Time Wisely!

Photograph Credit: Microsoft Images

Look who’s turning 3 today! My husband jokingly refers to Using Time Wisely as my fourth child. In some ways, he is correct. In other ways, I do abandon the blog when life happens, and I never would abandon a child.

Gratefulness doesn’t seem to fully express how much I appreciate each and every reader. I am so honored you would use your time to subscribe by e-mail, follow on Facebook, and visit the website.

You amaze me with your consistent reading.

I am still very much learning how to blog. Having spent some time in the past week updating the Using Time Wisely sidebar, I have come a long way. I am thrilled with the progress made, but I have much I still want to do.

The site in general needs updating, and I would love to roll out a new look this year. With the program purchased, I might have to build the site back up from the ground. I am still in the research phase which is why the design has not changed.

On this third blogiversary, I am making some noise and celebrating you! Thank you for being part of the Using Time Wisely community. I appreciate the accountability provided within our community as we journey on to using time wisely. Happy celebrating!

Happy 3rd Blogiversary, Using Time Wisely!

Sunoco: The FREE Fuel 5000 Online Decal Hunt

August 21, 2014 by Tracy

Sunoco: The FREE Fuel 5000 Online Decal Hunt

Photograph Credit: Sunoco

Though I don’t have an affiliate relationship with Sunoco, I am a customer and receive periodic e-mails from a loyal reader about Sunoco offers and deals.

If you have seen the Sunoco decal on my right sidebar, you might wonder why it is there. Well, this summer Sunoco is hosting the FREE Fuel 5000 Online Decal Hunt.

Since I have posted about Sunoco offers in the past, a Sunoco Representative sent me an invitation to participate. As I would love for one of my readers to win a prize from this promotion, I gladly registered and posted the decal to my sidebar.

Combining our Fuelperks! along with the savings at our Sunoco station, we are able to stretch our dollars at the pump. Though I have not been grocery shopping at Bi-Lo in quite some time, I still have this money-saving strategy in my arsenal.

If you want to post the Sunoco logo to your Facebook, Twitter, or blog, then feel free to click on the decal for more information. I will keep the decal up throughout the promotion which ends on August 31, 2014. Happy decal posting!

Comment: Please let me know if you win a prize. Good luck!
