A Few of Our Favorite Things...

Our readership consists of families; moms, dads, kids, the whole deal.  And, while we're some of the best reading on the internet, we've got a few sites in mind, that we think, you, our readers, would love!

Moms, if you like shopping for your little ones, but hate picking through the sizes, check out these flash sale, super discounted websites: Zulily and Totsy. There are even a few sales for you each day!!

Electronics lovers, rejoice!  We have found the site of your dreams...buy.com.  They carry everything, functioning like Amazon, but have the best deals on electronics.  The best part?  Free shipping on 99% of their items!!

Shopping is not for everyone, but these two websites are.  More flash deals, but this time they cover everything from getaways to spa visits, to the cupcake factory down the street.  You'll find yourself doing things you never even knew you wanted to do from rock climbing and kickboxing to touring museums and trekking through Legoland!  There is literally something for everyone on Groupon and LivingSocial.

Is fine dining your thing?  Do you go out to eat often, or ever?  We've got just the site for you.  (NOTE: This month we recommend Not Your Average Joe's in Acton as we were nominated as September's NYA Cause.  Every Tuesday throughout the month, 15% of your order will be donated to Miracle League of MA with this certificate.) Back to the year-round diners, check out this at least half-off coupon site for local restaurants in your area.

Enough with the discounts...this you can do for free.  You and your family can have daily treasure hunts using this website.  These adventures are more about the hunt than the treasures.  You can find out more about geocaching on the website, but basically there are hidden "treasures" all over the world, from the local grocery store's parking lot to the trails of the White Mountains.  Bring a pen to sign the logs, and make sure you have a small item to swap with one of the treasures you find!

Some other free fun to pass the time: Sporcle, a trivia site, and StumbleUpon, a unique site that will explain itself!! 

That should be enough to keep the whole family happily busy!  Enjoy these sites, they are some of our favorites!!
