It’s Birthday Party Time!
I shared on Facebook last night that with all of the Easter excitement, I completely forgot to mention that this weekend was Cha-Ching on a Shoestring’s FIFTH Birthday!
Where has the time gone? It seems like just yesterday that I announced to the world the birth of my little baby blog and now she’s practically all grown up.
It would be a shame to miss this opportunity for a Big Birthday Bash and you guys had some great ideas on how we should celebrate. I took your ideas and this is the result.
What is a birthday without a BIRTHDAY PARTY?? We’ll need pizza, entertainment and a delicious birthday dessert (of course).
I SO wish I could celebrate with each and every one of you who make this blog what it is – could someone get on that and figure out a way to make that happen? 🙂 Until we figure that out, this is the best option I could come up with:
I’m sending a birthday party to a few lucky readers! Here’s how:
One reader will win a $25 Papa John’s gift card (or Domino’s if you prefer):
One reader will win a $10 Redbox gift card for the Birthday Party Entertainment:
And one reader will win this yummy assortment of Mrs. Fields Cookies in a fun birthday tin:

I was looking for Freebies last November and stumbled on the site. Cha ching on a shoestring is a daily read. Thank you for your information. I have received free mags, great discounts and information to help my family. Thanks you. Liz

I just recently “met” Cha-ching while looking for some help in learning how to ad match. I read an article about one of her CVS trips and started exploring the whole site. That was a few months ago now and I’ve been addicted ever since.
Brenda says
I found cha-ching on a shoestring, searching for matchups and I found a funny video of Kaley with a jump rope showing how to haul 2 shopping carts! I thought she had a great personality and I have been following ever since! 🙂
Laurie Park says
It’s hard to say what my fav thing is about the blog. I love the freebies, giveaways & all the Amazon deals. Thanks so much for what you do!
Tracey says
I think my favorite thing about your website is reading your super duper CVS trips! I love coming home and telling my hubby how much money it ‘should’ have cost during one of my own CVS trips.

I’m already an email subscriber.

I started reading the blog about two years ago & I found it through a friend’s post on Facebook. Been following ever since.
Tracey says
I’m a local reader and came to know about your website through a mutual friend! I’ve been reading ever since … probably about 3 years! Happy Birthday, Cha ching!

I forget – it has been so long- but it was probably Money Saving Mom.

I am already an email subscriber! P.S. Happy Birthday! 🙂

My favorite thing are the CVS posts! I don’t “coupon” much except for at my local Raley’s and CVS and I always find unexpected deals for CVS here so I usually don’t go until towards the end of the week until after I read Cha-Ching for a few days. (I always miss out on deals anyway since it’s a small store, so I always end up with a bunch of rain-checks and a lot of times I later find a coupon that makes up for it!)
Ali W. says
Thanks, Kaley, for everything on your site. You’ve helped me save a lot of money these past 3+ years. My faves are the store deals and of course the freebies. 😎
Tammy says
I honestly don’t remember how I found you – it’s been so long now!! 🙂
Lydia M says
I found you with a Google search about coupons…I’ve been checking your site (more than) daily ever since! Thanks for all of the great advice, tips, and info on deals!

I learned about Cha-Ching on a Shoestring right around the time my son was born back in December of 2010! 🙂
Sarah says
I learned about Cha-Ching on a Shoestring just a week ago via the Money Saving Mom blog. My favorite thing is the freebie links! Thank you!
Sarah says
I forgot to post my website (it’s brand new, so not a lot of info on there just yet).

I learned about Cha-Ching on a Shoestring from seeing it on a local TV show and I’ve been visiting for several years.
