$$ Saving Tip

I haven't posted about saving money lately, so I knew I had to catch you guys up. Here is a tip:

Say no to cable.

Whhhaaat? Yes, you heard me right. When I was little I didn't know how anyone could survive without any cable. There was nothing on it to watch that was for kids during the day! Except for Saturday morning cartoons.

That, of course, was before Netflix.

It's simple, guys, and you see it advertised on television all the time. Netflix, only 8 bucks a month. Well, they aren't lying. If you don't upgrade to the $16 package (which that is only where you can get about any movie or show sent to your house), it is only 8 dollars. Simple as that.

Besides, who has time to watch all of the shows and movies cable has to offer anyway? DVR is great, and at one time I thought I couldn't live without it, but you'll learn to get over it.

Order Netflix today. http://www.netflix.com/

Zinc supplements help acne?? WHAT?!

I was reading a book about a month and a half ago about a lady who said she loved zinc and said it helped her acne. I googled it and to see if it was true. It was!

My parents are health food store junkies, so it was not hard for me to get zinc. Once they got a bottle of it for me I started taking it every day after supper. You have to take it with food or you might get nauseous - and I don't mean just a slice of bacon. I mean a good helping.

Now I didn't have a face full of zits when I started taking the supplements. I just had a couple problem areas, namely my chin and hairline, but that was about it. It seriously helps! I was a little skeptical about it at first but after about a month I was amazed - still am! Like, all of my pimples are gone except for when one or two pop up occasionally. But that isn't very often!

Zinc works because it helps balance hormones in the body. When there is an imbalance you produce excessive oils and sebum.

Not convinced? It also:

• Regenerates new cells, making your face look cleaner and brighter
• Increases fertility
• Heals wounds (this goes along with eliminating pimples, like getting rid of acne scars)
• Decreases severity and duration of a cold (zinc also comes in lozenge form)
• Helps you lose weight faster
• Improves vision
• Ensures correct development and growth of the fetus during pregnancy
• Strengthens and boosts immune system

So it's like killing two birds with one stone! Awesome!

This is where you can get the same zinc that I got, but I also heard you can buy it at Wal-Mart. It's not too costly either.
