Weekend Workout – Free CrossFit

You know how much I love me some free Crossfit, and while the boys at my fave CrossFit Austin have a sweet free Valentine’s Day workout planned (more on that later), I’ve got to tell you about CrossFit Central’s Under-The-Bridge workout.

Jo’s Chili Cold Blood Chili Cook-Off

Name? Don’t get it. Related to the band that plays? Whatevs, because Chili Cook Offs in general, I get. And love.

And it seems like all I’m blogging about this week is shopping … stimulate the economy, people, stimulate! Does this make me the Czarina of Shopping?…

Dogeared jewelry – FREE ring!

So I’m kind of obsessed with Dogeared jewelry. It’s so little and dainty and cute but simultaneously awesome and outdoorsy and nature-chick and happy. Basically, it fits anyone’s needs. And beyond that, last year they offered a free necklace with any purchase, and now they’re offering a free ring for your to Ring in the…

Yelp Open Party: Resolution Revolution

Man, I love yelp.com. Once again they’re hosting an open party with free drinks, food, and swag. Only this time the free drinks are Treaty Oak rum and some other vodka I’ve never heard of and FREE SUGAR MAMA’S CUPCAKES. I apologize for the screaming, but you know what Sugar Mama’s cupcakes do to me.…
